Hilarious.....JBI is in no way shape or form screwed on anything.....in fact when you come down to it they really don't need to patent diddly if they don't want to......wanna show me where the patent office says they have "infringed" on anything?......this is going to go on the long and storied list of reasons JBI is "screwed" and going to fail only to have nothing come of it....like the SEC suit for instance eh?.....just ehin'

So since the SEC didn't get them, the patent people will?

Laughable----just laughable.

Your misunderstanding of the patent laws is interfering with your analysis of JBI and it's prospects.

For example, expired patents count as prior art, but have no legal standing.

Furthermore, most patents cite prior art in the application as does JBI. It is the improvement on the prior art that is the patentable aspect.

If the truth be known, I suspect that very few pyrolysis patents will withstand a court challenge since pyrolysis has a very long history. Since there has been little prior financial success with pyrolysis there have been no court challenges that I am aware of on pyrolysis patents.

It maters not. JBI has figured out how to make pyrolysis work well. The catalyst in a key part of that as are the numerous engineering details. All of which can be kept as trade secrets.

As far as the engineering details go, those would possibly qualify for patent protection as improvement on prior art. JBI will have to decide if it want's to disclose those details in a patent or will be better off keeping them as a trade secret.

"Why would RKT, or anyone else in the world, rely on a money-losing penny stock company who would have to infringe patents in order to provide a product or service?"


When is JBI going to address how they're going to convert plastic to oil without infringing a couple dozen patents?

Now that their REJECTED patent application is in the public record, they are screwed. Willful infringement entitles the owners of the patents that JBI would be infringing to treble damages.



Of course, if JBI is a broke scam, nobody will have incentive to sue them. Maybe that's their "strategy"! LOL!!!

Which patents would be infringed? Do you think those who recently invested 8 million dollars in JBII were not aware of the issue you raise?
