[QUOTE=john70t;5523195]A patent is basically only a right to sue.
If you want more expensive protection for a longer period of time, you can hire the patent office itself to do the search and file a non-provisional which lasts 30 years as long as the paperwork is correct and the incremental fees are paid.
QUOTE]
In what country does a patent last 30 years?
They last 17 years in the US from the date of filing and 20 in Canada.
