one flaw, there are others. So you also want a present assignment of any residual that was missed at the time, and assigns the other appurtenant rights. I do that by a definition that includes the magic words "all rights of priority and to claim priority,
the right to apply for and be granted a patent, the right of Assignee to make application in its own name, and all rights to sue for past, present, or future infringement under any of the aforesaid."<u></u><u></u></p>
