Markup Instructions: If this tag is present, the following text is displayed on the front page of the patent: "A statutory invention registration is not a patent. It has the defensive attributes of a patent but does not have the enforceable attributes of a patent. No article or advertisement or the like may use the term patent, or any term suggestive of a patent, when referring to a statutory invention registration. For more specific information on the rights associated with a statutory invention registration see 35 U.S.C.157." Although boiler-plate text such as this may be rendered from a style sheet, it must also be present in each document instance to which it applies.
