78B-6-1901. Title -- Purpose.
  • (1) This part is known as the "Distribution of Bad Faith Patent Infringement Letters Act."
  • (2) The Legislature acknowledges that it is preempted from passing any law that conflicts with federal patent law. However, this part seeks to protect Utah businesses from the use of demand letters containing abusive and bad faith assertions of patent infringement, and build Utah's economy, while at the same time respecting federal law and not interfering with legitimate patent enforcement efforts.
