I noticed a need for correction in the notes on patent application

[smrithi sundararajan]

Dear Sir,

Please find the following paragraph in the notes of Patent application “Like India, most jurisdictions encourage the patent application to be made as soon as the invention is identified. This is known as the first-to-file system for granting patents. Amongst the important jurisdictions, United States stands as a lone exception as a country which follows the first-to-invent system for grating patents. 

Post The America Invents Act signed on September 16, 2011, switched <b>U.S.</b> right to the patent from the previous “<b>first</b>-to-invent” <b>system</b> to a “<b>first</b>-inventor-to-<b>file</b>” <b>system</b> for patent applications filed on or after March 16, 2013.

Please check it and correct me if i am wrong .

Regards

S.Smrithi
