David P. Bennett

David P. Bennett is a patent litigation attorney at Fletcher Yoder, P.C., specializing in intellectual property matters with a focus on high-tech prosecution and complex patent litigation. His practice encompasses a wide array of technical fields, including electronic and semiconductor devices, computers, imaging systems, industrial controls, and natural resource production and processing.

Bennett primarily represents defendants, aligning with Fletcher Yoder's emphasis on counseling and defending corporate clients, including Fortune 500 companies, in patent enforcement actions. His single tracked appearance is on the defendant side, representing Intel Corporation.

A notable engagement includes his role as counsel for Intel Corporation in Intel Corporation et al. v. 3D Surfaces, LLC. This case involved a patent dispute concerning U.S. Patent No. 7,245,299 B2, related to bicubic surface real-time tessellation technology, which is foundational to GPU architecture and the broader semiconductor IP landscape. The matter culminated in a significant victory for the defense, with the Federal Circuit affirming a lower tribunal's finding of invalidity or cancellation of the patent on January 8, 2026. This appellate outcome underscores his involvement in securing favorable results for technology-focused clients in complex patent challenges. The litigation originated from a patentability challenge consistent with proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) or related inter partes review (IPR) mechanisms, indicating experience with these administrative dispute avenues.
