FAQs Patent Questions

Question:How do I access a specific document in PSIPS?

Answer:
If you know the document ID of the US patent or publication that has the mega information you are seeking, you may submit it on the PSIPS home page.

Question:A Patentee who makes or sells patented articles is required to mark the articles with the word “Patent”

Answer:
A patentee who makes or sells patented articles, or a person who does so for or under the patentee is required to mark the articles with the word “Patent” and the number of the patent. The penalty for failure to mark is that the patentee may not recover damages from an infringer unless the infringer was duly notified of the infringement and continued to infringe after the notice.

Question:Does your USPTO database include data on the current fee status and expiration of patents?

Answer:
No, the US Patent Full Text Database does not include this data, but it is available on the PTO Web site. Use the link to the Patent Application Information Retrieval database (PAIR) on the Web database main page.
