Some of the earlier patents were purchased.

I believe that the cost of a purchased patent is capitalized.
And, generally, internally incurred R&D expenses are expensed as incurred. Legal fees incurred to successfully defend a patent are capitalized.


Any legal analysis I post is not a formal legal opinion and may not be relied on by anyone for any purpose. If you want legal advice you can rely on, hire a lawyer.
