It highlights the business, legal and analytic perspective within an industry that is driven by creativity and artistry. Tom describes the panel as “a wonderful opportunity for up and coming film makers to learn from amazing veterans about the business and practical struggles of film-making that sometimes get overlooked when focusing on the art.”

Two of Dunlap’s big cases, in which he presented to the Supreme Court, included a False Claims Act case (See United States ex rel. Carter v. Halliburton Co.) and in the TC Heartland LLC v. Kraft Foods Group Brands LLC, (U.S. May 22,. 2017) (No. 16-341) case involving jurisdiction in patent infringement cases.
