So, in March 2013, Tony (Feelyx) said he sold the patent he "cannot talk about the patent I sold, or about any "I_s" bearings/revisions/ etc."
That, coincidentally, is the same month that Jake & Charles filed the patent for the IMS "solution". The timeline is a little TOO coincidental to me.
Now, if I really want to pursue this further, I could ask my patent attorney if there was a way to sell a patent, either before or after it has been granted, and erase any record of the original inventor. Maybe Tony sold them the patent application while it was still pending and then Jake & Charles re-filed it under their own names?
I don't know the patent laws, but I know that you can sell a "patent pending" application. Whether you can sell an application and change the inventors' names is above my pay rate. Any patent lawyers here that can chime in on this?
