- maxxxxx 8y agoIs there a way to waive that right?
- pnw_hazor 8y agoIn the US they have one year to file. In UK, EU, and most other countries public disclosure bars them from filing a patent application. But there is no way to really be sure. Because they may have filed something before or after (within the 1 year) public disclosure.
