The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) announced at the last moment that it will postpone decommissioning the legacy ESF-Web and Private PAIR.
On the heels of a report published Sunday by IPWatchdog, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) announced today that they will be postponing the transition to Patent Center the tool meant to replace legacy systems, EFS-Web and Private PAIR until November 15.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s (USPTO’s) delay in retiring EFS-Web and Patent Center is welcome news. But my fear is the announcement could be just another display of the magical thinking.
