Continuation of the Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the USPTO and IP Australia based on Patent Cooperation Treaty Work Products
         Continuation of the Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program
                      between the USPTO and IP Australia
               based on Patent Cooperation Treaty Work Products

   On January 24, 2011, the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(USPTO) commenced a Patent Prosecution Highway pilot program based on
Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) work products (PCT-PPH pilot program) with
IP Australia (IPAU).  The PCT-PPH pilot program enabled an applicant who
has received a written opinion or an international preliminary examination
report from IPAU as the International Searching Authority (ISA) or
International Preliminary Examining Authority (IPEA) indicating that at
least one claim in the PCT application has novelty, inventive step and
industrial applicability to have the corresponding application filed in the
USPTO be advanced out of turn for examination.  See notice entitled "Patent
Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and IP Australia based on Patent Cooperation Treaty Work
Products," 1363 Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 105 (February 15, 2011).  The USPTO
indicated that the PCT-PPH pilot program would terminate on April 13, 2012,
but could be extended for an additional time period thereafter.

   In order to adequately assess the feasibility of the PCT-PPH pilot
program, the USPTO and IPAU have agreed to collect more information before
any final decision on the program is made. The pilot has been extended
indefinitely.

   Any inquiries concerning this notice may be directed to Bryan Lin,
Office of PCT Legal Administration, at 571-272-3303, or via e-mail
addressed to bryan.lin@uspto.gov.

   Specific questions about the Patent Prosecution Highway should be
directed to the Office of Petitions at 571-272-3282, or via e-mail

Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Israeli Patent Office based on Patent Cooperation Treaty Work Products

Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Israeli Patent Office based on Patent Cooperation Treaty Work Products

I. Background

Since 2006, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has established Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) pilot programs with several offices, including the Israeli Patent Office (ILPO). In general, such PPH pilot programs permit an applicant who receives a determination from one office that at least one claim is allowable/patentable to request that a corresponding application in another office be accorded special status and advanced out of turn for examination. These PPH pilot programs are limited to the utilization of search and examination results of national applications between cross filings under the Paris Convention.

In order to expand the potential of the PPH program, the USPTO implemented new PPH pilot programs with various offices based on Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) work products. The USPTO had discussions with the ILPO to launch a similar PPH pilot program based on PCT work products (PCT-PPH pilot program). The USPTO and the ILPO agreed that consistency between PCT-PPH pilot programs should be maintained to the extent possible, to avoid creating burdens on applicants and offices, and to ensure maximum work sharing potential.

II. PCT-PPH Pilot Program

The PCT-PPH pilot program was established to enable an applicant, who has received

(1) a Written Opinion from an International Searching Authority (WO/ISA) (ISA must be the ILPO or the USPTO), or

(2) a Written Opinion from an International Preliminary Examining Authority (WO/IPEA) (IPEA must be the ILPO or the USPTO), or

(3) an International Preliminary Examination Report (IPER) from an International Preliminary Examining Authority (IPEA must be the ILPO or the USPTO), that indicates at least one claim in the PCT application has novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability, to file a request to participate in the PCT-PPH pilot program in a corresponding U.S. application and petition to make the U.S. application special under the PCT-PPH pilot program. 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 petition to make special under the PCT-PPH pilot program. The procedures and requirements for filing a request in the USPTO for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program are set forth below.

A. Trial Period for the PCT-PPH Pilot Program

The USPTO and the ILPO agreed that the PCT-PPH pilot program will commence on August 1, 2012, for a period of one year ending on July 31, 2013. The trial period may be extended if necessary to adequately assess the feasibility of the PCT-PPH pilot program. The USPTO and the ILPO may also terminate the PCT-PPH pilot program early if the volume of participation exceeds a manageable level, or for any other reasons. Notice will be published if the PCT-PPH pilot program will be terminated before July 31, 2013.

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

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

(1) The relationship between the corresponding U.S. application for which participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program is requested and the PCT application satisfies one of the following requirements (note that RO/-- as used in the diagrams below refers to an international application filed under the PCT in any competent receiving office):

   

(a) The U.S. application is a national stage entry of the corresponding PCT application. See diagrams (A), (A’) and (A”) below.

(A) The U.S. application is a national stage entry of the corresponding PCT application.

(A’) The U.S. application is a national stage entry of the corresponding PCT application. (The corresponding PCT application claims priority to a national application filed elsewhere.)

(A”) The U.S. application is a national stage entry of the corresponding PCT application. (The corresponding PCT application claims priority to another PCT application.)

(b) The U.S. application is a national application which forms the basis for the priority claim in the corresponding PCT application. See diagram (B) below.

Provisional applications, plant applications, design applications, reissue applications and applications subject to a secrecy order (35 U.S.C. 181) are excluded and not subject to participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program.

(B) The U.S. application is a national application which forms the basis for the priority claim in the corresponding PCT application.

(c) The U.S. application is a national stage entry of another PCT application (which can be filed in any competent receiving office) which claims priority to the corresponding PCT application. See diagram (C) below.

(C) The U.S. application is a national stage entry of a PCT application which claims priority to the corresponding PCT application.

(d) The U.S. application is a national application claiming foreign/domestic priority to the corresponding PCT application. See diagram (D) below.

Provisional applications, plant applications, design applications, reissue applications and applications subject to a secrecy order (35 U.S.C. 181) are excluded and not subject to participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program.

(D) The U.S. application is a national application claiming foreign/domestic priority to the corresponding PCT application.

(e) The U.S. application is a continuing application (continuation, divisional, or continuation-in-part) of the U.S. application which satisfies one of the above (a) through (d) scenarios. See diagrams (E1) and (E2) below.

Provisional applications, plant applications, design applications, reissue applications and applications subject to a secrecy order (35 U.S.C. 181) are excluded and not subject to participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program.

(E1) The U.S. application is a continuing application of an application which satisfies requirement (a).

(E2) The U.S. application (US2) is an application claiming Domestic priority to an application (US1) which satisfies requirement (b).

In diagram (E2), US2 application may be a non-provisional application claiming benefit under 35 U.S.C. 119(e) to a provisional application (US1).

(2) The latest work product in the international phase of the PCT application corresponding to the U.S. application, namely, the WO/ISA, WO/IPEA, or the IPER, indicates at least one claim in the PCT application has novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability. In case any observation is described in Box VIII of the WO/ISA, WO/IPEA, or IPER which forms the basis for the PCT-PPH request, applicant must identify and explain why the claim(s) is/are not subject to any observation described in Box VIII irrespective of whether an amendment is submitted to correct the observation described in Box VIII. The U.S. application will not be eligible to participate in the PCT-PPH pilot program if applicant does not identify and explain why the claim(s) is/are not subject to the observation described in Box VIII.

Note that the ISA and the IPEA which produced the WO/ISA, WO/IPEA and the IPER are limited to the ILPO or the USPTO.

Applicant may not file a request to participate in the PCT-PPH pilot program on the basis of an International Search Report (ISR) only.

(3) Claim Correspondence

   

(a) All of the claims in each U.S. application for which a request for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program is made must sufficiently correspond to or be amended to sufficiently correspond to one or more of those claims indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability and be free of any observation described in Box VIII in the latest work product of the corresponding PCT application.

(b) Claims are considered to “sufficiently correspond” where, accounting for differences due to translations and claim format requirements, the claims in the U.S. application are of the same or similar scope as the claims indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability and free of any observation described in Box VIII in the latest work product of the corresponding PCT application, or the claims in the U.S. application are narrower in scope than the claims indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability and free of any observation described in Box VIII in the latest work product of the corresponding PCT application.

(c) In this regard, a claim that is narrower in scope occurs when a claim indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability and free of any observation described in Box VIII in the latest work product of the corresponding PCT application is amended to be further limited by an additional feature that is supported in the written description of the U.S. application. The claim(s) with the narrower scope must be written in dependent form in the U.S. application for which participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program is requested.

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

(5) Applicant must file a request for participation in the PCT-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/20PCT-IL) will be available from the USPTO Web site at http://www.uspto.gov/forms/ on August 1, 2012. 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 FR 29312 (May 25, 2010).

(6) Unless already filed in the U.S. application for which participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program is requested, applicant must submit a copy of the latest international work product, WO/ISA, WO/IPEA or IPER, which indicated that the claim(s) has/have novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability along with an English translation thereof if the copy of the latest international work product is not in the English language. A statement that the English translation is accurate is not required. Where the required documents have been previously filed in the U.S. application, applicant may simply refer to these documents and indicate in the request for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program when these documents were previously filed in the U.S. application. Where the U.S. application and the corresponding PCT application satisfy the relationship noted in B.(1)(a) above, applicant need not submit a copy of the latest international work product along with an English translation thereof since a copy of these documents is already contained in the file wrapper of the U.S. application.

(7) Unless already filed in the U.S. application for which participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program is requested, applicant must submit a copy of the claims from the corresponding PCT application which were indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability in the latest work product of the PCT application along with an English translation thereof and a statement that the English translation is accurate if the claims are not in the English language. Where the required documents have been previously filed in the U.S. application, applicant may simply refer to these documents and indicate in the request for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program when these documents were previously filed in the U.S. application. If the claims in the U.S. application for which participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program is requested are identical to the claims from the corresponding PCT application, and are in the English language, applicant may just indicate such in the PCT-PPH request and it will not be necessary for applicant to submit a copy of the claims from the corresponding PCT application.

(8) Applicant is required to submit a claims correspondence table in English. The claims correspondence table must indicate how all the claims in the U.S. application sufficiently correspond to the claims indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability in the latest international work product.

(9) Applicant must submit an information disclosure statement (IDS) listing the documents cited in the international work products (ISR, WO/ISA, WO/IPEA, IPER) of the PCT application corresponding to the U.S. application for which participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program is requested (unless such an IDS has already been filed in the U.S. application, in which case applicant may simply refer to the previously filed IDS and indicate in the request for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program when the IDS was previously filed in the U.S. application). Applicant must submit copies of all the documents cited in the international work products of the PCT application corresponding to the U.S. application (unless the copies have already been filed in the U.S. application, in which case applicant may simply refer to the previously filed copies of the documents and indicate in the request for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program when the copies were previously filed in the U.S. application) except U.S. patents or U.S. patent application publications.

(10) The request for participation in the PCT-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 PCT-Patent Pros Hwy.” Information regarding EFS-Web is available at http://www.uspto.gov/patents/process/file/efs/. Any preliminary amendments and IDS submitted with the PCT-PPH documents must be separately indexed as a preliminary amendment and IDS, respectively.

Where the request for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program and special status are granted, 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 PCT-PPH pilot program does not meet all the requirements set forth above, applicant will be notified and the defects in the request will be identified. 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 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, applicant will be notified and the U.S. application will be advanced out of turn for examination. If not perfected, applicant will be notified and the application will await action in its regular turn.

Request for participation in the PCT-PPH pilot program and special status granted in a parent application will not carry over to a continuing application. Applicant must fulfill all the conditions set forth above in order for special status to be granted in the continuing application.

C. Special Examining Procedures

Once the request for participation in the PCT-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 PCT-PPH pilot program must “sufficiently correspond” to the claims indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability in the latest work product of the corresponding PCT application. See the definition of “sufficient correspondence” in II.B.(3) above. Applicant is required to submit a claims correspondence table along with the amendment (see II.B.(8) above). If the amended or newly added claims do not sufficiently correspond to the claims indicated as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability in the latest work product of the corresponding PCT application, the amendment will not be entered and will be treated as a non-responsive reply.

The PCT-PPH program does not absolve applicants of all their duties under 37 CFR 1.56 and 37 CFR 11.18. By complying with requirements II.B.(6) and (9) 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 PCT application (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.

Any inquiries concerning this notice may be directed to Bryan Lin, Office of PCT Legal Administration, at 571-272-3303, or via e-mail addressed to bryan.lin@uspto.gov.

Specific questions about the Patent Prosecution Highway should be directed to the Office of Petitions at 571-272-3282, or via e-mail addressed to PPHfeedback@uspto.gov.

Notice Regarding Full Implementation of Patent Prosecution Highway Program between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Israeli Patent Office

Notice Regarding Full Implementation of Patent Prosecution Highway Program between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Israeli Patent Office

I. Background

Since July 1, 2011, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has conducted a Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) pilot program with the Israeli Patent Office (ILPO). For a complete description of the PPH pilot program, see “Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Israeli Patent Office,” 1368 Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 47 (July 5, 2011). The results of the pilot program showed that (1) applicants have been able to expeditiously obtain a patent in the Office of second filing (OSF) at an early stage, by utilizing the petition to make special procedures currently available in the OSF, based on claims that have been allowed in the Office of first filing (OFF); (2) the OSF has been able to reduce duplication of search efforts by exploiting the search and examination results of the OFF to the extent practicable; and (3) the OSF has been able to reduce the examination workload since the scope of the claims in the OSF application has been clarified through the OFF’s examination prosecution.

II. Full Implementation of the Patent Prosecution Highway Program

The USPTO and the ILPO agreed to fully implement the PPH program on a permanent basis starting on July 1, 2012. While the program itself will become a permanent cooperative arrangement between the offices, the specific program requirements are subject to change in the future depending on further development and evolution of the PPH. Notice of any such changes to the program will be published.

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 PPH 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 program are set forth below.

A. Requirements for Requesting Participation in the PPH Program in the USPTO

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

   

(1) The U.S. application is

   

(a) a Paris Convention application which either

   

(i) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) and 37 CFR 1.55 to one or more applications filed with the ILPO, or

(ii) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §§ 119(a)/365(a) to a PCT application that contains no priority claims;

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

   

(i) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 365(b) to an application filed with the ILPO, or

(ii) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 365(b) to a PCT application that contains no priority claims, or

(iii) contains no priority claim;

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

   

(i) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 365(b) to an application filed with the ILPO, or

(ii) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 365(b) to a PCT application that contains no priority claims, or

(iii) contains no priority claim.

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

(1)(a)(i):

- U.S. application with single Paris Convention priority claim to an application filed in Israel (IL)

U.S. application with single Paris Convention priority claim to an application filed in Israel (IL)

- U.S. application with multiple Paris Convention priority claims to IL applications

U.S. application with multiple Paris Convention priority claims to IL applications

- Paris route and domestic priority

- Paris route and divisional application

Paris route and divisional application

(1)(a)(ii):

- U.S. application claims Paris Convention priority to a PCT application

U.S. application claims Paris Convention priority to a PCT application

* DO – Designated Office

(1)(b)(i):

- U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to the IL application

U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to the IL application

- PCT Route

PCT Route

(1)(b)(ii):

- U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to another PCT application

U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to another PCT application

- Direct PCT and PCT Route

Direct PCT and PCT Route

(1)(b)(iii):

- U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application without priority claim

U.S. application is a national stage of a PCT application without priority claim

(1)(c)(i):

- U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to the IL application

U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to the IL application

(1)(c)(ii):

- U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to another PCT application

U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application which claims Paris Convention priority to another PCT application

(1)(c)(iii):

- U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application which contains no priority claim

U.S. application is a § 111(a) bypass of a PCT application which contains no priority claim

The IL 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 IL application can be an application explicitly derived from the basic application (e.g., a divisional application of the basic application). Note that where the IL 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 IL application that contains the allowable/patentable claims and the IL priority application claimed in the U.S. application (e.g., IL application X that contains the allowable/patentable claims is a divisional application of IL 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 IL application(s) have at least one claim that was determined by the ILPO to be allowable/patentable in a substantive examination carried out in the name of the ILPO. The applicant must submit a copy of the allowable/patentable claims from the IL 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 ILPO 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 program or in the transmittal letter accompanying the request for participation that no rejection has been made in the ILPO office action regarding that claim, and therefore, the claim is deemed allowable by the ILPO.

(3) All the claims in each U.S. application for which a request for participation in the PPH program is made must sufficiently correspond or be amended to sufficiently correspond to the allowable/patentable claims in the IL application(s). A claim is considered to "sufficiently correspond" where, accounting for differences due to translations and claim format, the claim in the U.S. application is of the same or similar scope as a claim indicated as allowable in the application filed in the ILPO. A claim in the U.S. application which is narrower in scope than the claims indicated as allowable in the application filed in the ILPO will also sufficiently correspond if presented as a claim dependent upon a claim which is of the same or similar scope as a claim indicated as allowable in the application filed in the ILPO. The additional limitation that makes the claim in the U.S. application narrower in scope than the allowable/patentable claims in the application filed in the ILPO must have support in the written description of the U.S. application.

The applicant is 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 application(s) filed in the ILPO. Any dependent claims with additional limitations must be clearly identified in the claims correspondence table.

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

(5) The applicant must file a request for participation in the PPH 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/petition form (PTO/SB/20IL) is available from the USPTO Web site at http://www.uspto.gov/forms/. Applicants are encouraged to use the USPTO request/petition 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 IL 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 IL application(s) issued after the grant of the request for participation in the PPH program in the USPTO (especially where the ILPO might have reversed a prior holding of allowability).

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

The request for participation in the PPH 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/patents/process/file/efs/. Any preliminary amendments and IDS submitted with the PPH documents must be separately indexed as a preliminary amendment and IDS, respectively.

Where the request for participation in the PPH 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 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 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 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 program when these documents were previously filed in the U.S. application.

B. Special Examining Procedures

Once the request for participation in the PPH 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 program must sufficiently correspond to one or more allowable/patentable claims in the IL application(s). The applicant is required to submit a claims correspondence table along with the amendment (see A.(3) above). If the amended or newly added claims do not sufficiently correspond to the allowable/patentable claims in the IL 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 A.(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.

Any inquiries concerning this notice may be directed to Bryan Lin, Office of PCT Legal Administration, at 571-272-3303, or via e-mail addressed to bryan.lin@uspto.gov.

Specific questions about the Patent Prosecution Highway should be directed to the Office of Petitions at 571-272-3282, or via e-mail addressed to PPHfeedback@uspto.gov.

                     MAILING AND HAND CARRY ADDRESSES FOR
             MAIL TO THE UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE

              MAIL TO BE DIRECTED TO THE COMMISSIONER FOR PATENTS

   For most correspondence (e.g., new patent applications) no mail stop
is required because the processing of the correspondence is routine.
If NO mail stop is included on the list below, no mail stop is required
for the correspondence. See the listing under "Mail to be Directed to the
Director of the Patent And Trademark Office" for additional mail stops
for patent-related correspondence. Only the specified type of document
should be placed in an envelope addressed to one of these special mail
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
information.

   Please address mail to be delivered by the United States Postal Service
