'Cause it's eleven thirty and the club is jumpin, jumpin. Ladies leave your man at home. The club is full of ballers and their pockets full grown. And all you fellas leave your girl with her friends. 'Cause it's eleven thirty and the club is jumpin, jumpin. Thou shalt say my name.
DEFINITION of 'Patent'. A government license that gives the holder exclusive rights to a process, design or new invention for a designated period of time. Applications for patents are usually handled by a government agency. In the U.S. the United States Patent and Trademark Office handles application and documentation.
If a patent lawyer would like to represent inventors in front of the USPTO, then he or she must sit for and pass the USPTO licensing exam, which is commonly known as the 'patent bar.' In cases where a lawyer has attained five years of continuous service with USPTO, the licensing exam is waived.
