ORIGINAL: jlf1961 Only a NATURAL person can own a patent, they can ASSIGN the rights... THIS! You are both wrong. USPO Ownership/Assignability "Assignment," in general, is the act of transferring to another the ownership of one's property, i.e., the interest and rights to the property. In 37 CFR 3.1, assignment of patent rights is defined as "a transfer by a party of all or part of its right, title and interest in a patent or patent application...." An assignment of a patent, or patent application, is the transfer to another of a party's entire ownership interest or a percentage of that party's ownership interest in the patent or application. Title 37 Code of Federal Regulations § 3.73 Establishing right of assignee to take action. (a) The inventor is presumed to be the owner of a patent application, and any patent that may issue therefrom, unless there is an assignment. The original applicant is presumed to be the owner of a trademark application or registration, unless there is an assignment. (b) (1) In order to request or take action in a patent or trademark matter, the assignee must establish its ownership of the patent or trademark property of paragraph (a) of this section to the satisfaction of the Director. The establishment of ownership by the assignee may be combined with the paper that requests or takes the action. Ownership is established by submitting to the Office a signed statement identifying the assignee, accompanied by either: (i) Documentary evidence of a chain of title from the original owner to the assignee (e.g., copy of an executed assignment)... (ii) A statement specifying where documentary evidence of a chain of title from the original owner to the assignee is recorded in the assignment records of the Office (e.g., reel and frame number)... Are we done now? K. Now just loop back to the Executive order and voila, the US government OWNS more patents than any other person or entity as a result.
