Best Answer

You cant patent real property, like land. You patent "things" or inventions, not actual, real property. Those are deeds. Now, you can patent things ON the property, but not the property itself.

A Different PerspectivePerhaps you are thinking of a land patent. A land patent is an original grant of land from the government that claims sovereignty over that land. Think of the large land grants executed by the King of England during the colonial times. Those could be called land patents. The term is also used in other countries.

The United States government granted huge land patents in its early days, some covering area of millions of acres.

How can US patent office get away with stealing Washington Redskins Intellectual property?

The question misunderstands the adjudication that took place concerning the Redskins' Intellectual Property. Intellectual Property is protected from infringing copies by the US Patent Office through registry with them However, a group that can claim that the image or property that is copyrighted is offensive to members of that group. In the case of the Redskins, several Native Americans brought suit to the adjudication board of the US Patent Office and demanded that the patent be rescinded since it is offensive to them. The Patent Office heard arguments from both the Native Americans and from the Redskins and determined that the Native Americans' arguments were correct. Therefore the protection granted by the Patent Office was rescinded. The Redskins have not lost the ability to use the symbols or any other intellectual property associated with the rescinded patent, nor has the Patent Office "acquired it" from the Redskins. However, with the loss of the patent, there is no more legal grounds for the Redskins to claim that any copying of their signs or logos is an infringement of an existing patent.
