his citizen review is having a tremendous impact.

Advisors continue to send in validity evidence for closed Studies to earn profit sharing points.

Closed Studies also contain state of the art collections for the Study patents. These Article One proprietary collections are available for license to interested parties.

Article One announces only its own decision for the outcome of Studies--based on its analysis of the prior art for purposes of determining winners to its Patent Studies.
