They can allow recovery of reasonable royalties back to the date of publication of the application. Since publication occurs 18 months after the earliest priority application filing, the day it publishes is no different if a provisional is filed on day X follows by a non provisional a year later or if a non provisional is filed on that same day X. So the choice does not affect those rights. | |
