For example, this 2006 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law360.com\/articles\/4987\/u-s-patents-riddled-with-mistakes-survey-finds\">study<\/a>\u00a0found that in a sample of 1600 patents issued by the USPTO:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>98% of the issued patents had mistakes<\/li>\n<li>over 33% of the mistakes required a Certificate of Correction,<\/li>\n<li>and 2% of the mistakes were serious enough to impair the core claims.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For those practicing in field, the reasons for these patent quality issues are quite clear. \u00a0Examiners in the USPTO spend most of their allotted time searching for prior art, not proofreading your applications. In addition, the quality of the examination varies greatly between individual examiners. Therefore, it is your responsibility to ensure that each patent application is thoroughly proofread before it is filed. If you file an application that is riddled with errors, you may eventually get a patent from the USPTO, but that patent will have little value because it would be hard to enforce.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t believe us? Let&#8217;s take a look at one example issued patent, such as <a href=\"http:\/\/patft.uspto.gov\/netacgi\/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;d=PALL&amp;p=1&amp;u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&amp;r=1&amp;f=G&amp;l=50&amp;s1=6819858.PN.&amp;OS=PN\/6819858&amp;RS=PN\/6819858\">U.S.\u00a06,819,858<\/a>. \u00a0Notice anything interesting about claim 19?

Probably not, if you had a choice. While this is clearly a typo of the term &#8220;the means&#8221; and would likely be construed by the court as such, it&#8217;s hard to imagine the jury reading this claim without snickering. And if the patent owner doesn&#8217;t take care to proofread its patents for obvious mistakes, then the patent can&#8217;t be worth that much, right?<\/p>\n<p>Could we have caught such a missing antecedent basis issue with ClaimMaster? The answer is yes &#8211; if we load <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/help\/Quickpatentdownload.html\">this patent into Word<\/a> and then check the claims for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/help\/Missingantecedents.html\">missing antecedents<\/a>, we&#8217;ll see that the software finds this term missing in claim 19 and the subsequent claim 19 also has a missing antecedent for the same term in the dependent claim 20.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/antecedent.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-155 size-full\" title=\"missing antecedent basis\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/antecedent.png\" alt=\"missing antecedent basis\" width=\"397\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/antecedent.png 397w, https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/antecedent-300x255.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 397px) 100vw, 397px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Notably, other claims also have missing antecedent basis issues. \u00a0For example, claim 17 says &#8220;the first <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>mud<\/strong> <\/span>second chips,&#8221; while it clearly should&#8217;ve said &#8220;first and second chips.&#8221; Other claims, such claims 15 and 20 also might have issues because they recite &#8220;fiber array devices&#8221;, while their parent claims recite &#8220;fiber arrays&#8221;. \u00a0These mistakes are all fairly difficult to spot with a naked eye, but using a proofreading software tool like ClaimMaster makes it much easier.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to try out ClaimMaster on your patent documents, download the free 30-day trial from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/CMTrialForm.html\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You can&#8217;t count on the USPTO to proofread your patent applications, especially for common mistakes like missing antecedent basis.
