		WildUtah on Dec 5, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Anti-Patent Troll Bill Passes The House A month ago we lost the Covered Business Method review that would have been so valuable. Then today we lost venue improvements for patent applicant appeals which is a small issue. We'll see the bill stripped even more in the Senate. That's the essential battle now. Then the conference committee that reconciles the bills will be very important.

Any chance for the business method to be banned again in Senate through an amendment?

No, because then it would have to get passed again in that form by the house

Both houses of congress must pass the same bill for it to go to the president.
