After an application is drafted and filed, one may think that the work is done. In fact, the work begins again once an examiner picks that application up for prosecution. That is, each patent office around the world has nuances and examination considerations impacting how an application fares through the examination process. The United States Patent Office (USPTO) is no different.

During this webinar, we will explore the patent prosecution system at the USPTO. The discussion will include the following topics:

  • Overview of the USPTO and Examination Timeline
  • USPTO Production System
  • Examiner Docketing and Performance
  • USPTO Programs and Initiatives

This webinar is the second segment of Finnegan’s winter 2017 series, “The Evolving IP Landscape in the United States: Challenges & Opportunities.” We hope you are able to attend.
