→Demand Letters
===Demand Letters===
To protect small businesses and other entities, the act requires that the patent owner inform the other party the reason for the lawsuit and how the infringement has supposedly occurred. <ref name="" />
“The bill precludes a plaintiff from relying on pre-suit demand letters to establish willful infringement if the letters do not specify the asserted patent, the accused product, the plaintiff’s ultimate parent entity, and the grounds for the alleged infringement” [http://www.mofo.com/~/media/Files/ClientAlert/2015/05/150507ProposedPatentReformLegislation.pdf]
