Patent Defined
A (special, alienable, prima facie) legal right granted by the government to use, or at least (in the case there are other patents which your use of your patent would infringe) to bar others from using a device, design or type of plant that you have created. (In the US restrictions last for 17 years for useful devices, and 14 years for designs.) To patent a device one must prove that it is useful, original and not obvious. Patents are subject to challenge in court and may be upheld or overturned.
