ANNOUNCEMENTS
GRIPLA
mourns the loss of distinguished former board member and friend,
Auzville "Auzzie" Jackson, Jr. Auzzie practiced in the field of
intellectual property for over sixty years in a number different of
roles, including as a patent examiner with the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office, in-house counsel with Reynolds Metals and Robertshaw
Controls Company, and most recently with his own firm, The Jackson
Patent Group, where he practiced patent law for more than twenty
years. His contributions to the bar were numerous and include
founding and chairing the Patent, Trademark and Copyright Section of
the Virginia State Bar and serving in various capacities with the
American Bar Association, the American Intellectual Property Law
Association, and of course, GRIPLA. Auzzie's pleasant, positive
demeanor, inquisitive nature, and passion for intellectual property
will be sorely missed.
