FAQs Patent Questions
Question:The inventors assistance center provides patent information.
Answer: Provides patent information and services to the public. The IAC is staffed by former Supervisory Patent Examiners and experienced Primary Examiners who answer general questions concerning patent examining policy and procedure.
Question:A Patent office sometimes requires a physical model for invention if necessary
Answer:
Models or exhibits are not required in most patent applications since the description of the invention in the specification and the drawings must be sufficiently full, clear, and complete and capable of being understood to disclose the invention without the aid of a model. A working model, or other physical exhibit, may be required by the Office if deemed necessary.
Question:The patentee may ask the court for an injunction to prevent the continuation of an infringement
Answer:
The patentee may ask the court for an injunction to prevent the continuation of the infringement and may also ask the court for an award of damages because of the infringement.
