Fallacy Dispelled: Invalidation Rates of Adjudicated Patents Convey Nothing About Quality of All Issued Patents

Any suggestion that USPTO patent examination quality is a controlling factor in the high rate of patent invalidation in the district courts and at the PTAB is a fallacy that should be rejected and excised with prejudice from all discourse on USPTO examination quality. About half of the patents adjudicated in district courts and at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) are found invalid.
