Lisa, like you, there is nothing to collect, so I am not worried at all by these pieces of paper.. They all go away anyway once a new agreement is finalized or the patents are dissoved.I prefer the grandfather clause of course, but am quite prepared to go for the patent dissolution route so that nobody gains market advantage if I have to.It will be one or the other.

You know you are not.

Ken,

If you were in negotiations with HRI it would show in the court records...there would be a motion for a private negotiations which would delay the default. There is not, so you are not in negotiations.

Mytee however, IS in negotiations, and the hearing is in Feb. it is in the court docs.

BTW: You selling your supposed skids to your cleaning company before the patent is not proof, as you could easily fabricate a reciept. Proof for grandfathering (as you like to call it, inaccurately as that term may be) requires a published advertisement, or a patent application or at the very least...and this is not usually very strong...you must send your invention drawings and description to yourself via certified mail to prove the date.

Take care,
Lisa

My skids were produced in a machine shop that kept very good records as to when they were produced. They were then photographed. Those documents and pictures were then authenticated and dated at a commissioner of oaths office here in Calgary. No doubt at all proving when they were made.All negotiations thus far are verbal. I insisted they stay out of the public record. If they try to licence Mytee's glides besides mine, then I proceed for patent disolution instead. I am only interested in exclusive selling rights, nothing less. Any less than that, and I will see the case thru till disolution of the patents is granted.
