A more thorough explanation:
OIPE
Abbreviation for OFFICE OF INITIAL PATENT EXAMINATION.
The OIPE is a department within the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) responsible for conducting the initial examination of patent applications. This involves reviewing the application to ensure that it meets the requirements for patentability, such as novelty and non-obviousness.
When a person or company submits a patent application to the USPTO, it is first reviewed by the OIPE. The OIPE will determine if the application meets the necessary requirements for patentability before it is passed on to a patent examiner for further review.
