Enforceability, Publication, and Expiration
Patents are enforceable only after being granted (2+ years after filing)
Damages may be payable on infringement calculated starting from the time of application publication
Publication is at 18 months or can be requested earlier
Publication is mandatory for foreign filing, voluntary otherwise
Thus, for a purely domestic filing, the patent application may be kept secret until a patent is granted
A patent expires 20 years from date of filing and may be extended in days or years due to delays at the patent office
A patent can expire for failure to pay maintenance fees, although revival is possible
