How we calculated this date
| Step | Input | Date after this step | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base term, 20 years from filing | Clock starts Apr 2, 2004, when the earliest non-provisional application in its chain was filed (this one was filed Jun 5, 2013); a parent in its chain could not be resolved (the next row) | Apr 2, 2024 | High confidence |
| Continuity chain | A reissue: its term follows the original patent's, with the original's term adjustment; a parent in the chain could not be resolved | dated from this application's own claim | Low confidence |
| Patent term adjustment | +301 days, the original patent's USPTO patent term adjustment record, which governs a reissue (35 U.S.C. 251). This reissue's own record carries none | Jan 28, 2025 | Medium confidence |
| Terminal disclaimer cap | None on record | no cap applied | High confidence |
| Patent term extension | None on file | no change | High confidence |
| Fee events | No fee event states this; the fee state is read from the payments the fee record holds | term ended | Medium confidence |
| Computed term end | The steps above, in order | Jan 28, 2025 | From the USPTO record |
