The most expensive IP mistake founders make... isn't filing the wrong patent.
It's not filing anything at all (!)
Hi, I'm April Mosby, Patent Attorney with Monarch IP Group having over 25 years of patent prosecution experience...
Just wanted to share a few gems on Intellectual Property....Thinking about filing a patent? Here’s why you shouldn’t wait….

1️⃣ Filing secures your priority date and a chance of acquiring your patent before others file the same.
2️⃣ You protect your idea while developing it (you can continue to develop your idea knowing that you have a protective shield around your product(s) and your business).
3️⃣ It elevates your business instantly (it properly positions your pitch before investors and customers).
Drop a general question about IP in the comment section below or schedule an IP Coaching Call where we can discuss your questions confidentially.

Patent Eligibility for AI can be a tricky subject to consider….The Courts have a judicial exception to all that can be patented….This exception includes abstract ideas, laws of nature, and natural phenomena…. These are what is known as the building blocks to human ingenuity…. Therefore a person cannot own patent rights on these..Your AI assisted invention must be significantly more than an abstract idea..It must involve specific, practical applications ... .Licensed music (Canva Pro):”Smooth Jazz Lounge Podcast music,“ Denis Pavlov.Disclaimer: Attorney Advertising.

Placing "Patent Pending" on a product's packaging and marketing materials Does Not protect the innovation behind the product… It may serve as a deterrent; but not a Shield....Once a patent application is Filed, then the concept is "patent pending." The Examination Process can take from 2 -3 years. During this time, some marketers choose to "blitz the market" in an effort to capture the market share no matter what the outcome of the Examination will be.. The innovative concept's rights are secured after the Examination Process and a Patent is Granted….It is best to work with a Patent Attorney to get your Innovative Concept filed and processed swiftly...... .Licensed music (Canva Pro)

I was just thinking about how some people compete and do not want others to excel. Some desire to inhibit others so that their light can shine brighter…
But we were all meant to blossom and shine.
Be strong and take courage in whatever endeavor you have been assigned.
For, when you are strong and blossom, you encourage others…
And yourself.
💛💛💛

Fear can be present; but don’t let it block you.
Being a business owner, starting a new product line, inventing a new software app...can push a person straight into the “fires”…
But we must learn the capacity to be fire walkers...
This takes discipline, empowering self-talk, and a lot of imagination…
But ... You. Can. Do. It.
If you are teetering on the edge, I believe that you will get there.
If there is anyway that I can help, just let me know.

UNITED STATES v. ARTHREX, INC. ET AL.
The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that all Administrative Patent Judges (APJ) on the Patent Trial and Appeal Board are constitutionally vacant, requiring Presidential appointments and Senate confirmation to act as "principal officers" under Article II of the Constitution. The Court said their appointment is unconstitutional because the judges are appointed by the Secretary of Commerce and their Decisions on patent validity are insulated from executive review.
As a solution, the Court gave the Director of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office the discretion to review decisions rendered by APJs.
This Decision applies only to Inter Partes Review, wherein the PTAB reconsiders whether existing patents satisfy the novelty and nonobviousness requirements all over again. (These types of proceedings are held in attempt to squash a patent infringement allegation)
What does this mean for you as a business owner?
Some believe that this may make your patents more difficult to invalidate (i.e. cancel)
The outcome remains to be seen. We can not predict for sure how the Board and the Director will rule going forward.
It will be interesting to see how the patent invalidation rate changes over the next year or so as a result of this ruling - are we going to see rates go up? Or down? Stay tuned for our next blog post…
