A quick definition of accelerated-reentry theory:

Accelerated-Reentry Theory: A legal theory used in patent cases to seek compensation for lost profits after a patent has expired. This theory argues that the competitor who infringed on the patent gained an unfair advantage in entering the market, resulting in lost sales for the patent holder. It is also known as the Post-Expiration-Sales Theory.

A more thorough explanation:

Accelerated-reentry theory, also known as post-expiration-sales theory, is a legal concept used in patent law. It refers to a theory of lost-profits remedy where compensation is sought for sales lost after a patent has expired. This is based on the idea that infringement gave the competitor a head start on entering the market.

For example, if a company holds a patent for a new type of phone and a competitor starts selling a similar phone before the patent expires, the original company may seek compensation for the sales lost during that time. This is because the competitor had an advantage in entering the market due to their infringement of the patent.

The accelerated-reentry theory is used to ensure that patent holders are compensated for the full value of their invention, even after the patent has expired. It is an important concept in patent law and helps to protect the rights of inventors and companies who invest in research and development.

@s95: My cousin is an immigration attorney who recently argued in front of the supreme court. He attended the University of Houston for law school. There are so many good schools for immigration law, countless clinics.

@s95: The higher the rank though basically means more opportunities possibly with a debt trade off. It's hard for me to say more without knowing your goals though. Awesome you already have an idea what you want to do as a lawyer!

17:06
I would research immigration law clinics
@s95: generally school specialties are kind of silly. it’s usually the rank of the school that determines the opportunities you can get from it across the board
with caveats for strong regional schools with a regional focus and so on
