If you disclose your product or sell it before you have a patent application on file, you may be barred from getting a patent due to the on-sale bar doctrine. But what if you have a secret METHOD, like a secret way to age steaks to make them more delicious, and you never disclosed or sold that that METHOD even though you sold the steaks? Does the on-sale bar apply to getting a patent for your secret METHOD or just apply to the physical steaks? A new case just cleared up this grey area. Listen to the episode and find out the answer!

In this episode I go over Standard Essential Patents (SEPs) are FRAND (Fair, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminatory) terms.
If someone comes up with a patent for a technology, and that technology because a standard for an industry, then the company that owns the patent MUST adhere to FRAND principals by licensing it on a "Fair, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminary" basis. Listen to the episode for more details and examples!

Listen to this episode to learn more about the treaty and how it affects disclosure requirements when you file a patent application.

There is a new standard for determining whether a design is obvious (and not patentable). The "old" rigid test called the Rosen-Durling test has been supplanted by a more flexible approach under the recently decided case of LKQ Corporation vs GM Global Technology Operations LLC. In this episode, learn how this new test is applied and why more of your design patent applications might get rejected for obviousness.

In this episode I go over a doctrine in patent law called the "Printed Matter Doctrine." You generally can't get a patent on something if the only difference is that you provided some written instructions on your product, even if those written instructions are new and non-obvious. Learn what kinds of printed matter is and isn't patent eligible in this episode.

In this episode of the "Patenting for Inventors Podcast" I discuss why I get excited when I see a phone call coming from the 571 area code. Usually it means a patent examiner is calling me to make an "Examiner's Amendment." Why is that good and what are examiner amendments about? Listen to the latest episode and learn!

Your patent application can be rejected because your so-called invention is "obvious." But how is obviousness determined? What's the difference between "prior art" that can be cited to reject your invention for lack of novelty, and "analogous art" which is the requirement to reject your invention based on obviousness? Listen to this episode and find out!

The law may be changing soon on how to determine whether your new design is patentable. Learn what the controversy is behind the patentability standard for design patent obviousness. Does the case of KSR v. Teleflex apply to design patents like it does for utility patents. Or will the Rosen/Durling Test still reign supreme!
