Moral Rights
Definition:
Moral rights generally fall into categories: the right of an author to receive credit as the author of a work, to prevent others from falsely being named author, and to prevent use of the author's name in connection with works the author did not create.
Abandonment
Definition:
An application that has been declared abandoned is "dead" and no longer pending. Abandonment occurs under several circumstances. The most common reason is when the USPTO does not receive a response to an Office Action letter.
Dependent claim
Definition:
A claim in a patent that refers back to a previous claim and defines an invention that is narrower in scope than that in the previous claim. A dependent claim must be written so as to be more restricted than the technology defined in the previous claim.
Design Patent
Definition:
A government grant of exclusive rights in a novel, nonobvious, and ornamental industrial design. A design patent confers the right to exclude others from making, using, or selling designs that closely resemble the patented design.
Overrun goods
Definition:
When a producer has authorization from an IPR holder to produce goods but exceeds the quantity, the excess goods are "overrun goods."
Universal Copyright Convention
Definition:
The UCC was created in 1952 through UNESCO to provide an international multilateral copyright treaty; the UCC remains significant in the countries that are UCC but not Berne Union members.
