Episode Synopsis

In this episode I go through how to respond to what is called a Section 102, novelty, or anticipation rejection. All of these terms mean that the examiner believes that your invention already exists in the public, so you can't get a patent on it.  Is all hope lost? Not necessarily! Listen to this episode to find out how to respond to such a rejection.
