Professional Liability risks of filing in DOCX

Carl Oppedahl has been focused on the USPTO’s electronic filing and docketing system for several decades. Most recently, he has been calling out the USPTO for “pants-on-fire lies” about the workability of the DOCX standard.  The PTO plans to institute a $400 surcharge for those who fail to use DOCX starting at the end of June 2023.

Oppedahl is presenting two webinars on the topic, focusing on professional liability risks associated with the new process and some tips for reducing the risks:
