A lawyer which you are should always check facts before posting and
never ever try to promote deliberate lies, even under pseudonym on the
internet

EPO can and does recycle same "prior art" references cited by
applicant himself to USPTO and already discussed in depth in office
actions and interviews with US examiners *... *just to prolong the
process and extort more money from poor applicant... until he is fed
up paying through his nose and walks away...

Just tell me why EPO keeps collecting huge annuities on pending
applications (and keeps them pending for many years) and why you have
to go through EU-registered attorney like yourself just to communicate
with EPO ?

*BTW, can you post your registration number ?

About verifying facts...
I'm not a lawyer but an EPO patent examiner.
An applicant can always request an accelerated search and examination
at the EPO, for free.
I was just questioning the legal certainty of a patent in the US,
which application has been abandoned at the EPO without even a reply
to the first communication, citing novelty destroying documents. I did
not check if these documents were also cited at the USPTO, before or
after the EPO search report had been issued.
