Thomas Alva Edison was granted 1,093 patents
Thomas Edison received such a patent, only to have it revoked, along with all of his other light-bulb patents, when it was discovered he had stolen the invention from the works of others.
1093 US patents were granted to Thomas Edison in his lifetime, as well as several hundred patents in the UK, France, and Germany. Many of them, such as the "light bulb" were ruled invalid in a federal court, due to Edison's having stolen and copied materials from others and claimed it as his own. Second alteration. Using the term of "stolen" regarding patent disputes maybe not that accurate.
