Through policy advocacy work with Unified Edge, Unified Patents has submitted comments to the USPTO's recent NPRM regarding conditions for obtaining terminal disclaimers to obviate obviousness-type double patenting.
In 2022, the USPTO requested comments regarding USPTO Initiatives to Ensure the Robustness and Reliability of Patent Rights. The Office has proposed a rule that would cut down on examiner wear-down and the abusive assertions of obvious variations of continuation patents through current terminal disclaimer practice. Unified has written to support the proposed rule.
