Inter Partes Requests Filed the Week of January 4th
| January 14, 2010
Reexamination requests are typically reported in the Official Gazette approximately three months after filing. Such a delay in reporting requests, particularly for inter partes requests, often involving copending District Court litigation, is unfair. We will therefore review the Patent Office files each week to identify inter partes reexamination requests filed the previous week. In some cases, the information available is incomplete.
This past week, the following requests were made:
(1) 95/000,526 – U.S. Patent No. 6,654,505 owned by Quad/Graphics and entitled METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VISUALLY INSPECTING A SUBSTRATE ON A PRINTING PRESS. Filed January 4, 2010 by Q.I. Press Controls.
