Prior art and § 102 novelty
Most issued patents have anticipating prior art that the examiner missed. The work is finding it and proving the date.
How to read a patent claim
A patent has a 50-page specification, a fancy abstract, and a row of figures. Lawyers and courts look at none of that. They look at the claims.
What patent litigation actually costs (AIPLA Economic Survey)
