35 U.S.C. § 152 — Issue of patent to assignee

submitted 74 years ago by ch. 950 to r/title-35-PATENTS · 37 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This section lets a patent be granted directly to whoever the inventor assigned it to. The application still must be filed, and the specification sworn to, by the actual inventor of record at the Patent and Trademark Office. Some other parts of this title provide exceptions.

A patent may be granted to the assignee of the inventor of record at the Patent and Trademark Office — that is, to the person or company the inventor's rights were assigned to, rather than to the inventor personally. But the application itself, and the sworn specification describing the invention, must still be made and sworn to by the inventor. This rule applies except where another part of this title provides otherwise.

Patents may be granted to the assignee of the inventor of record in the Patent and Trademark Office, upon the application made and the specification sworn to by the inventor, except as otherwise provided in this title.
