Questions presented

- Google LLC, Petitioner v. VirtaMove, Corp., et al.
- 1. Whether the PTO retains statutory authority to deny institution based on the “settled expectations” factor, where discretion is committed to the PTO and no statutory provision prohibits consideration of settled expectations. 2. Whether the “drastic and extraordinary” remedy of mandamus is appropriate where Google identifies no statutory text that has been violated and the Federal Circuit has held that an alternative vehicle—a notice-and-comment rulemaking challenge—remains available.
- Donald J. Trump, President of the United States v. Rebecca Kelly Slaughter
- Do the statutory removal protections for members of the Federal Trade Commission violate the separation of powers?
