FAQs Patent Questions

Question:What are Credit Patents?

Answer:
Credit patents are similar to Cash; lands could be purchased under the Land Law of 1800 from the General Land Office. This credit system allowed purchasers to pay in installments over a four-year period. A delinquent payment or non-payment of the full balance resulted in forfeiture to the U.S. Because of the economic hardship Congress quickly abandoned the credit system and through the Act of April 24, 1820 required full payment for land to be made at the time of purchase.

Question:Applicants can reinstate a cancelled claim by presenting the text of the canceled claim with the changes in a new claim

Answer:
Applicant can reinstate a canceled claim by presenting the text of the canceled claim with any desired changes in a new claim with a new claim number and use the status identifier, (new).

Question:On filing a plant or utility application on or after 11/29/2000 Inventors may choose to not publish their application

Answer:
On filing of a plant or utility application on or after November 29, 2000, an applicant may request that the application not be published, but only if the invention has not been and will not be the subject of an application filed in a foreign country that requires publication 18 months after filing (or earlier claimed priority date) or under the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
