New Portal Product and Features:

Ex Parte Reexaminations

Unified Patents’ Portal launches the world’s first search engine for Ex Parte Reexaminations. Users now can find up-to-date information on any given case, and search by case by number, patent number, or by party. Ex Parte Reexaminations are another way to challenge patents at the USPTO and traditionally have required users to know the patent involved and search through the prosecution history to see the filings. Until the introduction of the PTAB they were the most popular way to challenge bad patents.

Now, all challenges going back 15+ years are available and searchable. In addition, users can see outcomes (when possible) and find out who challenged which patent. Combined with Unified’s PTAB Tool, Unified is the only provider to enable users to comprehensively view every patent challenge in the US.

Portal displays all Ex Parte Reexaminations for users to understand the significance and how this type of filing is being utilized. This would include searching by case number, patent number, patent owner, and requester.

Users are also able to view high-level analytics, including outcome, top parties, and filings by year.

Portal also allows users to view the docket of any given case and retrieve up-to-date information at any given time.
