Amsel IP Law PLLC

School's out for the summer in Texas! 🌞

Parents, if the kids are getting rowdy at home, consider exploring the "Punishment Pad/Mat for Toddlers" as detailed in U.S. Patent Publication No. 2007/0245491.

This application sought to protect:

1. A child's punishment mat comprising:
a mat on which a child may sit; and
a removable timer mechanism affixed to the mat for timing a period for the child to be punished.

The application was abandoned prior to grant (not for lack of utility) and is thankfully in the public domain.

The Amsel household will unfortunately need more than a mat to contain the little human tornados this summer! 🌪️

Summer is almost here, and with U.S. Patent No. 6,663,744 for the "Beerbrella" now expired, you can enjoy keeping your poolside drinks shaded without worrying about infringement. Cheers to a sunny and worry-free season ahead! 🌞🍹
