Description

A license or a patent is a mere permission to make, use, or sell the patented or secret process. In effect, it is a waiver of the owner's right to sue for infringement. Accordingly, a licensee does not acquire legal title to the patent right or process. An exclusive license gives the licensee the right to use the patent or process free from any infringement suit, and the right to exclude all others. A nonexclusive license grants a privilege of protection from infringement claims by the owner of the patent or process. The California Invention Nonexclusive License Agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions of granting a nonexclusive license for a specific invention in the state of California. This agreement allows the inventor or patent holder to grant permission to another party to use and exploit the invention in exchange for agreed-upon terms and compensations.
