   For information on subject matter under Rule 39 that a particular

European Patent Office as Searching and Examining Authority

   The European Patent Office (EPO) may act as the International Searching
Authority (ISA) for an international application filed with the United
States Receiving Office or the International Bureau (IB) as Receiving
Office where at least one of the applicants is either a national or
resident of the United States of America. However, the EPO is no longer

international applications filed by U.S. residents or nationals on or
after March 1, 2002, in the USPTO or IB as a Receiving Office, and where
the application contains one or more claims directed to the field of
business methods. For the definition of what the EPO considers to be
precluded subject matter in the field of business methods, applicants
should see the "Notice from the President of the European Patent
Office", dated November 26, 2001, and which was published as Annex A in
the "Notice Concerning EPO Competence to Act as PCT Authority" in

   The European Patent Office may act as the International Preliminary
Examining Authority (IPEA) for an international application filed in the
United States Receiving Office or the International Bureau as Receiving
Office where at least one of the applicants is either a national or
resident of the United States of America, provided that the European
Patent Office acted as the International Searching Authority. However,
the EPO is no longer a competent IPEA, within the meaning of PCT Article
32(3), for international applications filed by U.S. residents or nationals
in the USPTO or IB as a Receiving Office where the corresponding demand is
filed with the EPO on or after March 1, 2002, and where the application
contains one or more claims directed to the field of business methods.

Authority (IPEA) for an international application filed in the United
States Receiving Office or the International Bureau as Receiving Office
where at least one of the applicants is either a national or resident of
the United States of America, provided that IP Australia acted as the
International Searching Authority. However, IP Australia is not a competent
IPEA, within the meaning of PCT Article 32(3), for international
applications filed by U.S. residents or nationals in the USPTO or IB as a
Receiving Office where the corresponding demand is filed with IP Australia
and where the application contains one or more claims directed to the
fields of business methods or mechanical engineering or analogous fields of
technology as defined by specified areas of the International Patent
Classification System, as indicated in Annex A to the agreement between the
USPTO and IP Australia. See the notice appearing in the Official Gazette
at 1337 O.G. 261 on December 23, 2008.

United States Postal Service Interruption and Emergency under 35 U.S.C. 21(a)
                         United States Postal Service
               Interruption and Emergency under 35 U.S.C. 21(a)

   The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is designating the
interruption in service of the United States Postal Service (USPS) in the
areas affected by Hurricane Irene in North Carolina, the mid-Atlantic and
the Northeast beginning on Saturday, August 27, 2011, as a postal service
interruption and emergency within the meaning of 35 U.S.C. § 21(a) and 37
CFR 1.10(i) and 2.195(e).

   Postal services throughout North Carolina, the mid-Atlantic and the
Northeast have been impacted by Hurricane Irene in varying degrees
beginning on August 27, 2011. To determine whether a post office has been
closed or reopened, or postal services have been suspended or resumed in a
particular area due to Hurricane Irene, contact the post office directly or
visit the USPS's Web site at: http://www.usps.gov.

   Once the USPS, through its Internet Web site, has notified the public
that this interruption in the service of the USPS has ended, the
designation of this interruption and emergency within the meaning of 35
U.S.C. § 21(a) and 37 CFR 1.10(i) will terminate without further notice
from the USPTO.

Patent-Related Correspondence

   37 CFR 1.10(i) addresses interruptions or emergencies in USPS "Express
Mail Post Office to Addressee" service that are designated by the Director
for patent-related correspondence. Correspondence covered by 37 CFR 1.10
that would have been filed with the USPTO under 37 CFR 1.10 during this
USPS service interruption, but which was not filed due to the USPS service
interruption, should be filed promptly after the termination of the USPS
service interruption with a petition in accordance with 37 CFR 1.10(i)
using "Express Mail" service in accordance with 37 CFR 1.10.

   The provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 21(a) and 37 CFR 1.10(i) apply only to
postal interruptions and emergencies. The provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 21(a)
and 37 CFR 1.10(i) do not provide for the granting of a filing date to
correspondence as of the date on which it would have been filed but for
other exigencies, such as the unavailability of an office or building other
than a USPS facility. These provisions apply only if the post office was
closed or "Express Mail" service suspended in the affected areas on the
specified date due to Hurricane Irene.

   37 CFR 1.10(i) provides that any person attempting to file
correspondence by "Express Mail Post Office to Addressee" service that was
unable to be deposited with the USPS due to an interruption or emergency in
"Express Mail" service which has been so designated by the Director may
petition the Director to consider such correspondence as filed on a
particular date in the Office. 37 CFR 1.10(i) specifically provides that:

   Any person attempting to file correspondence under this section that was
unable to be deposited with the USPS due to an interruption or emergency in
"Express Mail" service which has been so designated by the Director, may
petition the Director to consider such correspondence as filed on a
particular date in the Office, provided that:

   (1) The petition is filed in a manner designated by the Director
promptly after the person becomes aware of the designated interruption or
emergency in "Express Mail" service;

   (2) The petition includes the original correspondence or a copy of the
original correspondence; and

   (3) The petition includes a statement which establishes, to the
satisfaction of the Director, that the correspondence would have been
 October 11, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1371 OG 92 

deposited with the USPS but for the designated interruption or emergency in
"Express Mail" service, and that the correspondence or copy of the
correspondence is the original correspondence or a true copy of the
correspondence originally attempted to be deposited with the USPS on the
requested filing date.

   Patent-related inquiries concerning this notice may be directed to
Eugenia A. Jones, Senior Legal Advisor in the Office of Patent Legal
Administration, at (571) 272-7727 or at PatentPractice@uspto.gov.

Trademark-Related Correspondence

   37 CFR 2.195(e) and 2.198 address interruptions or emergencies in USPS
"Express Mail Post Office to Addressee" service that are designated by the
Director for trademark-related correspondence. Correspondence covered by 37
CFR 2.198 that would have been filed with the USPTO under 37 CFR 2.198
during this USPS service interruption, but which was not filed due to the
interruption, should be filed promptly after the termination of the USPS
service interruption with a petition in accordance with 37 CFR 2.146 and
2.198.

   The provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 21(a) and 37 CFR 2.195(e) apply only to
postal interruptions and emergencies. These provisions do not provide for
the granting of a filing date to correspondence as of the date on which it
would have been filed but for other exigencies, such as the unavailability
of an office or building other than a USPS facility. These provisions apply
only if the post office was closed or "Express Mail" service suspended in
the affected areas on the specified date due to Hurricane Irene.

   Under 37 CFR 2.195(e) and 2.198, any person attempting to file
correspondence by "Express Mail Post Office to Addressee" service that was
unable to be deposited with the USPS due to the interruption or emergency
in "Express Mail" service in the areas designated in this notice may
petition the Director to consider such correspondence as filed on a
particular date in the Office. The petition must:

   (1) Be filed promptly after the ending of the designated interruption or
emergency in "Express Mail" service;

   (2) Include the original correspondence or a copy of the original
correspondence; and

   (3) Include a statement which establishes, to the satisfaction of the
Director, that (a) the correspondence would have been deposited with the
USPS but for the designated interruption or emergency in "Express Mail"
service, and (b) the correspondence or copy of the correspondence is the
original correspondence or a true copy of the correspondence originally
attempted to be deposited with the USPS on the requested filing date.

   Please note that under 37 CFR 2.101(b)(2), 2.102(a)(2), 2.198(a)(1) and
7.4(b)(2), the Express Mail procedures cannot be used for the following
types of correspondence: applications for registration of marks; amendments
to allege use under 15 U.S.C. § 1051(c); statements of use under 15 U.S.C.
§ 1051(d); requests for extension of time to file a statement of use under
15 U.S.C. § 1051(d); affidavits of continued use under 15 U.S.C. § 1058;
renewal applications under 15 U.S.C. § 1059; requests to change or correct
addresses; combined filings under 15 U.S.C. §§ 1058 and 1059; combined
affidavits or declarations under 15 U.S.C. §§ 1058 and 1065; responses to
notices of irregularity under 37 CFR 7.14; requests for transformation
under 37 CFR 7.31; notices of opposition to applications based on 15 U.S.C.
§ 1141f(a); and requests for extensions of time to oppose applications
based on 15 U.S.C. § 1141f(a). Therefore, it would be inappropriate to file
a petition seeking a filing date as of the date of deposit of these types
of correspondence as Express Mail.

   The provisions of 37 CFR 2.198(e) on postal service interruptions or
 October 11, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1371 OG 93 

emergencies apply only to "Express Mail Post Office to Addressee"
correspondence, and do not apply to correspondence with a certificate of
mailing pursuant to 37 CFR 2.197. Therefore, the petition procedure set
forth in this notice is not appropriate for correspondence with a
certificate of mailing. However, petitions concerning such correspondence
may be considered under 37 CFR 2.146 with the requisite showing of an
extraordinary situation, that justice requires relief, and that no other
party would be injured thereby.

   Trademark-related inquiries concerning this notice may be directed to

Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Programs Established by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Taiwan Intellectual Property Office

Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Programs Established by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Taiwan Intellectual Property Office

I. Background

The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has established a 2010-2015 Strategic Plan to transform the USPTO into a more quality-focused, highly productive, responsive organization supporting a market-driven intellectual property system. One of the specific action items of the 2010-2015 Strategic Plan is to share search results with other intellectual property offices. By relying on the search results obtained via partnerships with other intellectual property offices, the USPTO can reduce duplication of efforts and decrease workload.

From July 2006 to January 2008, the USPTO partnered with the Japan Patent Office (JPO) to establish the first Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) pilot program. The PPH leverages accelerated examination procedures already available in both offices to allow applicants in both offices to obtain corresponding patents faster and more efficiently. The PPH also permits each office to benefit from the work previously done by the other office, in turn helping to reduce workload and improve patent quality. The USPTO and the JPO began full implementation of the PPH program on January 4, 2008.

The USPTO commenced a PPH pilot program with the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO) on January 28, 2008. The pilot program ended on January 28, 2009, and full implementation of the PPH program began on January 29, 2009.

USPTO has also commenced separate PPH pilot programs with the United Kingdom Intellectual Property Office (UKIPO), the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO), IP Australia (IPAU), the European Patent Office (EPO), the Danish Patent and Trademark Office (DKPTO), the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore (IPOS), the German Patent and Trade Mark Office (DPMA), the National Board of Patents and Registration of Finland (NBPR), the Hungarian Patent Office (HPO), the Russian Patent Office (Rospatent), the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office (SPTO), the Austrian Patent Office (APO), and the Mexican Institute of Industrial Property (IMPI) based on the same or similar framework as the PPH between the USPTO and JPO.

Following on these partnerships, the USPTO and the Taiwan Intellectual Property Office (TIPO), as designated representatives of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United States (TECRO), have each decided to launch a PPH pilot program similar to the PPH pilot programs noted above.1

1Pursuant to the Taiwan Relations Act (22 U.S.C. 3301 et seq.) and Executive Order 13014, the commercial, cultural, and other relations between the people of the United States and the people of Taiwan are carried out by the American Institute in Taiwan and its counterpart, the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United States.

II. Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program

The PPH was established to enable an applicant whose claims are determined to be allowable/patentable in the Office of First Filing (OFF) to have the corresponding application filed in the Office of Second Filing (OSF) advanced out of turn for examination while at the same time allowing the OSF to exploit the search and examination results of the OFF.

Where the USPTO is the OFF and the USPTO application contains claims that are determined to be allowable/patentable, the applicant may request accelerated examination at TIPO for the corresponding application filed with TIPO as the OSF. The procedures and requirements for filing a request with TIPO for participation in the PPH pilot program will be available on September 1, 2011, from the TIPO Web site at: http://www.tipo.gov.tw/pph.

Where the USPTO is the OSF and the corresponding application filed with TIPO as the OFF contains claims that are determined to be allowable/patentable, the applicant may request participation in the PPH pilot program in the USPTO and request that the U.S. application be advanced out of turn for examination by order of the Director to expedite the business of the Office under 37 CFR 1.102(a). Note that the procedures for a petition to make special under the accelerated examination program set forth in MPEP § 708.02(a) do NOT apply to a request for expedited examination by order of the Director to expedite the business of the Office under 37 CFR 1.102(a). The procedures and requirements for filing a request in the USPTO for participation in the PPH pilot program are set forth below in Section B.

A. Trial Period for the PPH Pilot Program

The USPTO will commence the PPH pilot program on September 1, 2011, for a period of one year ending on August 31, 2012. The trial period may be extended for up to an additional year if necessary to adequately assess the feasibility of the PPH program. The USPTO and TIPO, as designated representatives of AIT and TECRO, intend to evaluate the results of the pilot program to determine whether and how the program should be fully implemented after the trial period. Each office may also terminate the PPH pilot program early if the volume of participation exceeds a manageable level, or for any other reason. USPTO will publish a notice if the PPH pilot program will be terminated before the August 31, 2012 date.

B. Requirements for Requesting Participation in the PPH Pilot Program in the USPTO

In order to be eligible to participate in the PPH pilot program, the following conditions must be met:

(1) The U.S. application is

   

(a) an application that validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) and 37 CFR 1.55 to one or more applications filed with TIPO, or

(b) a national stage application under the PCT (an application which entered the national stage in the U.S. from a PCT international application after compliance with 35 U.S.C. § 371), in which the PCT application validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 365(b) to an application filed with TIPO, or

(c) a so-called bypass application filed under 35 U.S.C. § 111(a) which validly claims benefit under 35 U.S.C. § 120 to a PCT application, in which the PCT application validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 365(b) to an application filed with TIPO.

Examples of U.S. applications that fall under requirement (1) are:

(1)(a):

- U.S. application with a single priority claim under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) to an application filed in TIPO (TW application)

U.S. application with a single priority claim under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) to an application filed in TIPO (TW application)

- U.S. application with multiple priority claims under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) to TW applications

U.S. application with multiple priority claims under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) to TW applications

- foreign priority and domestic priority

foreign priority and domestic priority

- foreign priority and divisional application

foreign priority and divisional application

(1)(b):

- U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application that claims priority to a TW application

U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application that claims priority to a TW application

* DO Designated Office

(1)(c):

- U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application that claims priority to a TW application

U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application that claims priority to a TW application

The TW application whose claims are determined to be allowable/patentable does not have to be the application for which priority is claimed in the U.S. application (the basic application). The TW application can be an application explicitly derived from the basic application, e.g., a divisional application of the basic application. Note that where the TW application that contains the allowable/patentable claims is not the same application for which priority is claimed in the U.S. application, the applicant must identify the relationship between the TW application that contains the allowable/patentable claims and the TW priority application claimed in the U.S. application (e.g., TW application X that contains the allowable/patentable claims is a divisional application of TW application Y, which is the priority application claimed in the U.S. application).

Provisional applications, plant applications, design applications, reissue applications, reexamination proceedings, and applications subject to a secrecy order are excluded and not subject to participation in the PPH.

(2) The TW application(s) must have at least one claim that was determined by the TIPO to be allowable/patentable. The applicant must submit a copy of the allowable/patentable claims from the TW application(s) along with an English translation thereof and a statement that the English translation is accurate if the claims are not in the English language. If the TIPO office action does not explicitly state that a particular claim is allowable, the applicant must include a statement in the request for participation in the PPH pilot program or in the transmittal letter accompanying the request for participation that no rejection has been made in the TIPO office action regarding that claim, and therefore, the claim is deemed allowable by the TIPO.

(3) All the claims in each U.S. application for which a request for participation in the PPH pilot program is made must sufficiently correspond to or be amended to sufficiently correspond to the allowable/patentable claims in the TW application(s). Claims will be considered to sufficiently correspond where, accounting for differences due to translations and claim format requirements, the claims are of the same or similar scope. The applicant is also required to submit a claims correspondence table in English. The claims correspondence table must indicate how all the claims in the U.S. application correspond to the allowable/patentable claims in the TW application(s).

(4) Examination of the U.S. application for which participation in the PPH pilot program is requested has not begun.

(5) The applicant must file a request for participation in the PPH pilot program and a request that the U.S. application be advanced out of turn for examination by order of the Director to expedite the business of the Office under 37 CFR 1.102(a). A sample request form (PTO/SB/20TW) will be available from the USPTO Web site at http://www.uspto.gov on September 1, 2011. Applicants are encouraged to use the USPTO request form. A petition fee under 37 CFR 1.17(h) is NOT required. See Notice Regarding the Elimination of the Fee for Petitions To Make Special Filed Under the Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) Programs, 75 Fed. Reg. 29312 (May 25, 2010).

(6) The applicant must submit a copy of all the office actions (which are relevant to patentability) from each of the TW application(s) containing the allowable/patentable claims that are the basis for the request, along with an English translation thereof and a statement that the English translation is accurate if the office actions are not in the English language. In addition, the applicant must submit copies of any office actions (which are relevant to patentability) from the TW application(s) issued after the grant of the request for participation in the PPH pilot program in the USPTO (especially where TIPO might have reversed a prior holding of allowability).

(7) The applicant must submit an information disclosure statement (IDS) listing the documents cited by the TIPO examiner in the TIPO office action (unless such an IDS has already been filed in the U.S. application). The applicant must submit copies of all the documents cited in the TIPO office action (unless the copies have already been filed in the USPTO application) except U.S. patents or U.S. patent application publications.

The request for participation in the PPH pilot program and all the supporting documents must be submitted to the USPTO via EFS-Web and indexed with the following document description: “Petition to make special under Patent Pros Hwy.” Information regarding EFS-Web is available at http://www.uspto.gov/ebc/efs_help.html. Any preliminary amendments or IDS submitted with the PPH documents must be separately indexed as a preliminary amendment or IDS, respectively.

Where the request for participation in the PPH pilot program and special status are granted, the applicant will be notified and the U.S. application will be advanced out of turn for examination. In those instances where the request for participation in the PPH pilot program does not meet all the requirements set forth above, the applicant will be notified and the defects in the request will be identified. The applicant will be given one opportunity to perfect the request in a renewed request for participation (which must be submitted via EFS-Web and indexed accordingly as noted above). Note that action on the application by the examiner will NOT be suspended (37 CFR 1.103) awaiting a reply by the applicant to perfect the request in a renewed request for participation. That is, if the application is picked up for examination by the examiner after the applicant has been notified of the defects in the request, any renewed request will be dismissed. If the renewed request is perfected and examination has not begun, the request and special status will be granted, the applicant will be notified and the U.S. application will be advanced out of turn for examination. If not perfected, the applicant will be notified and the application will await action in its regular turn.

(8) Request for participation in the PPH pilot program and special status granted in a parent application will not carry over to a continuing application. The applicant must fulfill all the conditions set forth above in order for special status to be granted in the continuing application.

If any of the documents identified in items (2), (6) and (7) above have already been filed in the U.S. application prior to the request for participation in the PPH pilot program, it will not be necessary for the applicant to resubmit these documents with the request for participation. The applicant may simply refer to these documents and indicate in the request for participation in the PPH pilot program when these documents were previously filed in the U.S. application.

C. Special Examining Procedures

Once the request for participation in the PPH pilot program and special status have been granted to the U.S. application, the U.S. application will be taken up for examination by the U.S. examiner before all other categories of applications except those clearly in condition for allowance, those with set time limits, such as examiner’s answers, and those that have been granted special status for “accelerated examination.”

Any claims amended or added after the grant of the request for participation in the PPH pilot program must sufficiently correspond to one or more allowable/patentable claims in the TW application(s). The applicant is required to submit a claims correspondence table along with the amendment (see B.(3) above). If the amended or newly added claims do not sufficiently correspond to the allowable/patentable claims in the TW application(s), the amendment will not be entered and will be treated as a non-responsive reply.

The PPH program does not absolve applicants of all their duties under 37 CFR 1.56 and 37 CFR 11.18. By complying with requirements B.(6) and (7) identified above, applicants would be considered to have complied with their duties to bring to the attention of the USPTO any material prior art cited in the corresponding foreign application(s) (see MPEP § 2001.06(a)). Applicants still have a duty of candor and good faith, including providing to the USPTO other information known to them to be material to patentability.

Elimination of the Listing of Prior Art Documents on Reexamination Certificates
                        Elimination of the Listing of
                            Prior Art Documents on
                          Reexamination Certificates

   Currently, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (Office)
includes on each reexamination certificate a list of all prior art
documents cited by patent owner and third parties that were considered by
the Office and all prior art documents cited by the Office in the
reexamination proceeding. In order to expedite issuance of reexamination
certificates, the Office is eliminating printing of the listing of prior
art documents on reexamination certificates.

   The Office's Public Patent Application Information Retrieval (PAIR)
system provides electronic listings of the prior art documents considered
and cited by the Office in each reexamination proceeding. Therefore,
printing such information on reexamination certificates is no longer
necessary. The reexamination certificate will now include a notice thereon
stating that the list of cited prior art documents will be available via
PAIR by reexamination control number. Members of the public can access
Public PAIR to conveniently obtain the list of prior art documents cited by
inputting the reexamination control number and viewing each list of cited
prior art documents.

   Furthermore, the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure (MPEP) currently
indicates, at sections 2290 and 2690, that the reexamination certificate
will include: "[t]he prior art documents cited at INID code [56] will be
only those which are part of the reexamination file and cited on forms
PTO-1449, PTO/SB/08A or 08B, or PTO/SB/42 (or on a form having a format
equivalent to one of these forms) (and the documents have not been crossed
out because they were not considered) and PTO-892." Since the listing of
prior art documents will be eliminated from the reexamination certificate,
the MPEP, in chapters 2200 and 2600, will be updated to reflect this new
practice.

   On June 18, 2011, a new Display References tab became available in
Public PAIR where, under the heading "Reference Forms," all prior art
listings (PTO-892, PTO-1449, IDS) in the file are available. These listings
can now be easily viewed and downloaded from this new tab. Note: These same
forms and documents are still available on the Image File Wrapper tab.

Continuation of the Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the USPTO and the Hungarian Patent Office
                Continuation of the Patent Prosecution Highway
                   Pilot Program between the USPTO and the
                            Hungarian Patent Office

   On July 1, 2010, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)
commenced a Patent Prosecution Highway pilot program (PPH) which enabled an
applicant whose claims have been determined allowable/patentable in an
application filed in the Hungarian Patent Office (HPO) to have the
corresponding application filed in the USPTO advanced out of turn for
examination. See notice titled "Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program
between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Hungarian
Patent Office," 1356 Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 258 (July 27, 2010). The USPTO
indicated that the pilot program would last for a period of one year ending
on June 30, 2011, but may be extended for an additional time period
thereafter.

   In order to adequately assess the feasibility of the PPH program, the
USPTO and HPO have agreed to extend the pilot in its current state in order
to collect more information before any formal decision on the program is
made.

   Please continue to direct inquiries on the PPH pilot program to Magdalen
Greenlief at 571-272-8140 or via e-mail addressed to

stops. If any documents other than the specified type identified for each
special mail stop are addressed to that mail stop, they will be
significantly delayed in reaching the appropriate area for which they are
intended. The mail stop should generally appear as the first line in
the address.

   Most correspondence may be submitted electronically. See the USPTO's
Electronic Filing System (EFS-Web) internet page
http://www.uspto.gov/patents/process/file/efs/index.jsp for additional
