Patent opposition, if used appropriately, can act as an important tool to prevent the grant of frivolous patents. Although this goal can be achieved by way of revocation and other litigious options, opposition serves as a more cost-effective route. However, it brings to mind misuse of opposition to prevent the grant of even those patents that have great competitive value and to deliberately affect the businesses of competitors. Nevertheless, the opposition procedure has its own checks and balances to allay such fears -- types of patent opposition proceeding -- pre-grant opposition proceedings - grounds and procedure -- grounds for pre-grant opposition -- post-grant opposition proceedings - grounds and procedure -- opposition board -- filing documents -- hearing -- cases and decisions concerning patent opposition -- recent trends in pre-grant opposition
