New patent application rules
In reading up on the new rules for patent continuations and cost
changes e.t.c. I decided to review patents applied lately for antennas. To my surprise I could not find any new listing of a patent request on antennas from private entities. Applications listed were only those that had transferred direct authority in dealing with the patent office Now I know personally that there are patents applied for by the inventors themselves so why are they kept secret from the public at large? I am guessing but I can only assume that a private claim can obtain authority to change content later with the examiners assistance where-as others cannot. If so this can affect the new continuance rulings immensly. Vincent got his antenna continuance claims in just about a month before the rules changed. Rules have also been revised on the substance of claims presumably to retard the increasing number of counter claims tho no doubt it will open more paths to circumvent existing patents. Just like politics, the more you revise policy the more you increase loopholes and the more money exchanges hands between those who introduce "corrective" additions. Some fees have gone up by 3% which is rare considering present social security increases so the PTO at Crystal City is being really genourous Art Unwin KB9MZ......xg |
