> Preissuance Submissions & Post-Grant Challenges
Pre-Issuance Submissions allow third parties to submit relevant patent and non-patent prior art to be considered in the prosecution of a pending patent application before the USPTO. Gilman Research can assist with locating prior art as well as providing all required reporting and relevancy documentation.
Once a patent has been issued The American Invents Act allows for third parties to challenge a patent by requesting a post-grant review. The USPTO states, "A petitioner for post grant review may request to cancel as unpatentable one or more claims of a patent on any ground that could be raised under paragraph (2) or (3) of 35 U.S.C. 282(b) relating to invalidity (i.e., novelty, obviousness, written description, enablement, indefiniteness, but not best mode)." We can work with you to locate the supporting prior art and provide all required documentation.
