Manual Patent Invalidation through Patent Office?
Has anybody ever tried to manually invalidate Acacia's patent? So many prior art posts with no solutions.
http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac.../2200_2214.htm "(a) Any person may, at any time during the period of enforceability of a patent, file a request for an ex parte reexamination by the Office of any claim of the patent on the basis of prior art patents or printed publications cited under § 1.501. The request must be accompanied by the fee for requesting reexamination set in § 1.20(c)(1)." |

![]() Before anyone gets any wild ideas on this, please get with the defense group. The problem with filing a request for ex parte reexamination is that the initial arguments given in the filing are going to be the only arguments you're allowed. If a reexamination is granted, you're out of the loop from that point on. The holder of the patent and the PTO will then argue back and forth and if your one-time presentation is flawed in the slightest, the PTO will side with the patent holder. The prior art that was submitted, along with the failed argument, then becomes part of the patent's file wrapper (the background documents that are part of the overall record of the granted patent). The problem that arises then, is anyone else that could've presented a stronger argument regarding that prior art is hampered in the future because of the previous failure. So, again, before anyone gets any wild ideas on this, please get with the defense group.
