Draft legislation addressing patent eligibility is expected sometime this fall. The hope is that the bill will clarify patent eligibility issues and tackle inventions classified as abstract ideas, laws of nature and natural phenomena.


Proposed changes to section 101 are expected to broaden patentability for “any invention or discovery that provides specific and practical utility in any field of technology through human intervention.”
