New Video:听PIJIP's Events on听Gonzalez v. Google LLC and Twitter, Inc. v. Taamneh
Last week, PIJIP hosted events on two key intellectual property cases argued before the Supreme Court: Gonzalez v. Google LLC and Twitter, Inc. v. Taamneh. Videos of the both events are now available on our .
These events were part of PIJIP's long-running "IP at the Supreme Court" series, in which we invite counsel of record and counsel for selected amici to offer post-argument reflections in intellectual property (and related) cases heard by the Supreme Court. Our events are held on the afternoon of oral argument before the Court.
