Cari has previously worked as an attorney advisor for the Office of the General Counsel at OFAC.
Covered in this 20 minute podcast:
- Iran sanctions – what is likely to happen with the JCPOA, how OFAC might take enforcement actions outside of JCPOA and the implications of such, and what might happen with the Iran Sanctions Act.
- Russia/Ukraine/Crimea sanctions – how Crimea-focused sanctions might be affected by the president-elect’s statements that Russia should be an ally in the fight against ISIS.
- Cuba sanctions – what the new administration might do with respect to Cuba sanctions and the Cuban Democracy Act.

Claim construction is a key stage of most patent litigations, where the court must decide the meaning of any disputed terms in the patent claims. Generally, claim terms are given their plain and ordinary meaning except under two circumstances: (1) when the patentee acts as its own lexicographer and sets out a definition for the term; and (2) when the patentee disavows the full scope of the term either in the specification or during prosecution.
