TO ME THAT 80% OF CLAIMS RULED INVALID IS A BOGUS NUMBER PUT OUT THERE FOR WHATEVER REASON.....

ACCORDING TO EVERYTHING SMAN, IN HIS GREAT SKILL IN BEING A NUMBER ONE FERRET, HAS FOUND AND POSTED, I READ (MY EXAMPLE) THAT IF 1000 PATENTS ARE CHALLENGED WITH AN IPR ONLY 500, OR 50%, OF THOSE CLAIMS ARE EXAMINED.

OF THOSE 500 EXAMINED, 400, OR 80% ARE DEEMED INVALID. TO ME THE MATH SAYS OF ALL THE PATENTS CHALLENGED, 1000, ONLY 400 ARE DEEMED INVALID, OR 40%.

I GUESS IT JUST DEPENDS ON HOW YOU READ THE CONFUSING BLURBS...
