    For what it is worth. I found out last week I was excluded as a credited inventor on a patent that I worked for 2.5 years on. Industry does this stuff too…

      I know it may not be worth pursuing, but that specifically can invalidate a patent.

        Correct. I have already reached out to my former company and I have a stack of paperwork coming to “correct the oversight” it helps that the company didn’t know that the patent application had been filed by the client.
