The timing of patent prosecution can vary significantly depending on the number of communications with the examiner. The goal of the USPTO is to issue the first Office Action within 14 months of the application filing date, and subsequent Office Actions within four months of each response submitted by the applicant.
“Patent prosecution” is defined as the progress of the application from filing, through the search and examination procedures, and on through publication to eventual grant or refusal.

The patentee/licensee can also bring the suit for infringement in a court which has jurisdiction in the area where the infringing activity took place. A patent holder can file a suit in a court not lower than District Court.
Patent prosecution involves writing and filing a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). Patent prosecution is entirely distinct from patent litigation, which involves suing another person or business for a violation of patent rights.
There are three types of patent infringement under this statute: direct infringement, induced infringement, and contributory infringement. Induced and contributory infringement are two types of indirect infringement.
In the patent world, the term “prosecution” refers to the entire patent process, from the drafting of the patent application until it is allowed and issued, or finally rejected, by the USPTO. You may hear someone refer to the fact he/she is “prosecuting a patent before the USPTO.”
Your invention must be: new - it must not have been made publicly available anywhere in the world, for example it must not be described in a publication. inventive - for example, it cannot be an obvious change to something that already exists.
