    Patent law - prior art - patent review

    Sec. 302. - Request for reexamination
    Any person at any time may file a request for reexamination by the Office of any claim of a patent on the basis of any prior art cited under the provisions of section 301 of this title. The request must be in writing and must be accompanied by payment of a reexamination fee established by the Director pursuant to the provisions of section 41 of this title. The request must set forth the pertinency and manner of applying cited prior art to every claim for which reexamination is requested. Unless the requesting person is the owner of the patent, the Director promptly will send a copy of the request to the owner of record of the patent.

    Ref:

    Submitting these prior art discoveries could just get Acacia's patents flushed down the toilet by the patent office..

          If they got inundated with a ton of different requests, perhaps all citing prior art, that would flush acacia's chances damn fast.

              What if every person who Acacia sent a letter to were to request a review of the patent?

                                  Go for it!


                                  But understand it might take 1 or 2 years before the patent office gets around to scheduling a hearing.

                                  The patent office owns the patent on procrastination!

                                          From what I heard (so in other words, I'm not sure), if there is a court battle involving the patent, the patent office won't do anything in case it conflicts with the judges decision. So like if the judge said the patent is no good and the patent office says it is from all this prior art, then there can be a problem. I would wait to see what happens in court first, cause I don't think the patent office can do anything about it at this time.

                                              You have to have a patent lawyer file for you. The fees are around $1500 to the USPTO, plus the legal fees.

                                              Hmmm... $1500. Sound familiar?

                                                  That's not true. Any patent that's worth anything to anyone is always being litigated.

                                                  The patent office is in a world of their own. And that's the real problem!!
