A terminal disclaimer allows the patent owner to disclaim or dedicate to the public the entire term or some portion of the term of a patent, usually to overcome a double-patenting objection. Only terminal disclaimers filed before issuances are included. The specific text associated with the disclaimer must be consulted to determine the extent of the disclaimer.
