Request for Ex Parte Patent Reexamination
Ex parte reexamination may be used by either the patent owner or a third party to have a patent returned to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for further examination in light of prior art identified in the reexamination request. While inter partes review and post-grant review have been the favored proceedings over ex parte reexamination to challenge a patent's validity since the passage of the America Invents Act, ex parte reexamination has been increasing in popularity. Utilize this template to initiate a patent reexamination.
