Topic Background:
On September 16, 2011, President Obama signed the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act into law. Several important changes took effect on the date of enactment, including some significant litigation related changes and the new standard for instituting reexamination. Most other changes take effect in one year, although the changes to the definition of prior art (including the "first-to-file" provisions) and new post-grant review proceedings will not take effect for 18 months.
Research records that are used to support patent claims must meet stringent requirements to be viable in support of patent applications and in case of litigation. They must be authenticated records that support:
- Conception – Complete idea on how to make and use invention.
- Reduction to Practice – Description of a working model of the invention.
- Corroboration – witness(s).
