How we calculated this date
One row per rule, each showing its own input and what it did to the date. A step we could not verify says so instead of resolving itself.
| Step | Input | Date after this step | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base term, 20 years from filing | Clock starts Jun 14, 2021, when application 17/304,069, the earliest non-provisional in its chain, was filed (this one was filed Sep 12, 2023); a parent in its chain could not be resolved (the next row) | Jun 14, 2041 | High confidence |
| Continuity chain | A parent in the chain could not be resolved | dated from this application's own claim | Medium confidence |
| Patent term adjustment | None on file | no change | High confidence |
| Terminal disclaimer cap | Disclaimer resolved from the filed document (refs US 11,159,958, US 11,172,542, US 11,265,733, US 11,357,078, US 11,558,757, US 11,737,169, US 11,818,593, US 11,838,993, US 11,979,753, US 12,082,308) | capped to Jun 8, 2041 | High confidence |

In force means the term is running and no lapse is on record. It is not a finding that the patent is valid.
