This patent's term runs 1447 days past the statutory base term on prosecution delay. A terminal disclaimer is on file with no resolved reference, so no cap is applied and none is guessed. All three maintenance fees are paid, so nothing but the term itself will end it. Confidence: Medium. from the record

Open question

A terminal disclaimer is on file (approved) and its reference document is not resolved. A disclaimer would cap the term earlier than Sep 13, 2025. We will not guess the cap.
