Twо inventоrs, Sergei аnd Hirоko, on opposite sides of the country both invent а scаn-a-tron machine that records the intended answer of the test taker. Sergei creates the machine first and then spends three months looking for a patent attorney to help him with filing. The search takes a while because the attorneys all would charge too much for Sergei’s budget. While Sergei searches for an attorney, Hiroko invents the machine and, since he is a patent attorney, immediately files a patent application. Sergei then hears about Hiroko’s invention, quickly gets a patent attorney, and sues Hiroko for patent infringement. Who will most likely win?
