The Defense Security Cooperation Agency has informally circulated draft revisions to the August 2009 Guidelines for Foreign Military Financing of Direct Commercial Contracts, which would elaborate on, and in a number of instances significantly change, its policies with respect to the disclosure and financing of U.S., non-U.S., and now "host country" content. Please contact us if you would like to obtain a copy of the draft and/or participate in commenting on the proposal by the due date of November 16, 2015.

From ‘Second’ to ‘First:’ Federal Circuit Tackles Obvious Claim Errors
Patent claims must be clear and definite, as they set the boundaries of the patentee’s rights. Occasionally, however, claim language contains errors, such as typographical mistakes or incorrect numbering. Courts possess very limited authority to correct such errors. The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has emphasized that judicial correction is appropriate only in rare circumstances, where (1) the error is evident from the face of the patent, and (2) the proposed correction is the sole reasonable interpretation in view of the claim language, specification, and prosecution history. See Group One, Ltd. v. Hallmark Cards, Inc., 407 F.3d 1297, 1303 (Fed. Cir. 2005) and Novo Indus., L.P. v. Micro Molds Corp., 350 F.3d 1348, 1357 (Fed. Cir. 2003).
