How can the public access patent ownership information?

While the public cannot request title reports directly, they can obtain patent ownership information through other means. The MPEP notes:

The public can request a certified abstract of title. The fee for this service is set forth at 37 CFR 1.19(b)(4).

Additionally, some assignment records are publicly available. For more information on accessible records, refer to MPEP § 301.01.
