When applying for a patent for utility model by electronic means, all units and individuals as applicants have paid the application fee and are ready to enter the preliminary examination. Can you delete that person from the applicant?
Of course. Change the description in the Patent Office, and change the applicant from "company+individual" to "company".
However, it must be signed by the original of the individual applicant.
In addition, the change needs to be completed before the patent is granted, otherwise the information on the patent certificate will not change.
