35 U.S.C. § 313Preliminary response to petition

submitted 27 years ago by Pub. L. 106-113 to r/title-35-PATENTS · 60 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

When someone files an inter partes review petition, the patent owner can file a preliminary response. This response argues why the review shouldn't start, because the petition fails some legal requirement. The Director sets the deadline for filing this response.

If someone files an inter partes review petition under section 311, the patent owner has the right to file a preliminary response. The patent owner must file it within a deadline the Director sets. The response can explain why no inter partes review should be started — because the petition fails to meet a requirement of this chapter.

If an inter partes review petition is filed under section 311, the patent owner shall have the right to file a preliminary response to the petition, within a time period set by the Director, that sets forth reasons why no inter partes review should be instituted based upon the failure of the petition to meet any requirement of this chapter.
