Considering the numerous processes concerning intellectual property rights that are open in the US courts, a legal center in the US has created the video clip above that shows how patents are registered and what they represent. The video clip was made with the idea of helping the jurors of the trials to understand what a patent is and how it is obtained, all so that the decisions given by them are as fair as possible.
This brief video provides jurors in a patent case an explanation of what a patent is and the process for obtaining it. It has been carefully crafted, in consultation with judges and members of the bar, to present a balanced view of the patent process, but individual judges will want to review it carefully and consult with counsel before deciding whether to use it in a particular case. (August 2013) A sample patent, developed to accompany the video, is also available http://www.fjc.gov/public/pdf.nsf/lookup/PatentSystemSample2.pdf/$file/PatentSystemSample2.pdf .
This video clip should be presented to juries in many US trials, including those involving Apple and Samsung, and the interesting part is that Samsung does not want it to be shown to jurors. The lawyers of the Asians oppose its presentation because in the clip several Apple products are presented, the clip suggesting that they are innovative and that they can be patented, Samsung arguing that this idea should not be implemented in the collective mind.
