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

   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

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

Pilot Program for Extended Time Period To Reply to a Notice To File Missing Parts of Nonprovisional Application 
			    DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
			  Patent and Trademark Office
			 [Docket No.: PTO-P-2010-0071]

		  Pilot Program for Extended Time Period To
		  Reply to a Notice To File Missing Parts of
			  Nonprovisional Application

AGENCY: United States Patent and Trademark Office, Commerce.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) previously
published a notice requesting comments on a proposed change to missing parts
practice in nonprovisional applications. The USPTO has considered the comments
and is implementing a pilot program (Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program) in
which an applicant can request a twelve-month time period to pay certain fees
and to reply to a Notice to File Missing Parts of Nonprovisional Application.
Under the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program, applicant must file a
nonprovisional application within twelve months of the filing date of a
provisional application and directly claim the benefit of the provisional
application, as well as submit a certification and request to participate in
the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program with the nonprovisional application.
In addition, applicant must not file a nonpublication request. Applicant will
be given a twelve-month period to decide whether the nonprovisional
application should be completed by paying the search fee, the examination fee,
any excess claim fees, and the surcharge ($130.00 for non-small entity or
$65.00 for small entity) for the late submission of the search fee and
examination fee within that twelve-month period. The nonprovisional
application will be published under the existing eighteen-month publication
provisions. Therefore, applicant should also submit the basic filing fee, an
executed oath or declaration, and application papers that are in condition for
publication, on filing of the application with the request to participate in
the pilot. If the basic filing fee, an executed oath declaration, and/or
application papers that are in condition for publication are not submitted
with the application and the request to participate in the pilot, applicant
will need to submit these items within a two-month (extendable) time period.
In view of the comments, the USPTO is cautiously moving forward by
implementing the proposed procedure as a pilot program. Specifically, the
pilot program will require applicant to submit a certification and request to
participate in the pilot program, rather than automatically applying the
procedure to all applicants. The USPTO is providing a certification and
request form that includes educational information regarding domestic benefit
claims, foreign filings, patent term adjustment (PTA) effects, the need for a
complete disclosure of the invention, potential increase in fees, and the
benefits of submitting a complete set of claims. In addition, the USPTO is
implementing a number of educational initiatives to assist independent
inventors and other applicants. The Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program will
benefit applicants by permitting additional time to determine if patent
protection should be sought - at a relatively low cost - and by permitting
applicants to focus efforts on commercialization during this period. The
Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program will benefit the USPTO and the public by
adding publications to the body of prior art, and by removing from the USPTO's
workload those nonprovisional applications for which applicants later decide
not to pursue examination. Applicants are advised that the extended missing
parts period does not affect the twelve-month priority period provided by the
Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property. Thus, any foreign
filings must still be made within twelve months of the filing date of the
provisional application if applicant wishes to rely on the provisional
application in the foreign-filed application or if protection is desired in a
country requiring filing within twelve months of the earliest application for
which rights are left outstanding in order to be entitled to priority.

DATES: Effective Date: December 8, 2010.
 January 4, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1362 OG 45  

   Duration: The Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program will run for twelve
months from its effective date. Therefore, any certification and request to
participate in the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program must be filed before
December 8, 2011. The USPTO may extend the pilot program (with or without
modifications) depending on the feedback received and the effectiveness of
the pilot program.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The USPTO published a notice requesting comments
on a proposed change to missing parts practice in nonprovisional applications.
See Request for Comments on Proposed Change to Missing Parts Practice, 75 FR
16750 (April 2, 2010), 1353 Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 223 (April 27, 2010).
Specifically, the USPTO requested comments on whether the missing parts
practice should be changed to provide applicants with an extended time period
to reply to a Notice to File Missing Parts requiring fees in a nonprovisional
application filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) that claims the benefit of a
provisional application and meets certain conditions. The request for comments
identified a number of potential benefits of such an extended time period to
reply to a missing parts notice, including increased use of the eighteen-
month publication system, more time for applicants to ascertain the value of
their inventions and focus on commercialization efforts, and removal of
applications from the USPTO's workload.

   The USPTO received over forty comments from intellectual property
organizations, universities, industry, a law firm, individual patent
practitioners, and the general public. The USPTO acknowledges and appreciates
the many comments that were submitted from the intellectual property community.
The comments from those who will benefit from the extended time period were
generally positive. Many comments expressed concerns over the potential for a
loss of rights by some applicants, such as independent inventors. The USPTO
has considered the written comments including those that raised concerns or
provided suggestions. The USPTO is implementing a change to missing parts
practice in nonprovisional applications as a pilot program (i.e., Extended
Missing Parts Pilot Program). The pilot program will allow the USPTO to
proceed with caution, while placing emphasis on awareness and education of
the public regarding the program. The USPTO will also be better able to
evaluate the effectiveness of the program and make modifications or eliminate
the program as deemed appropriate. Furthermore, those applicants who do not
wish to participate in the pilot program should not be affected by the pilot
program and do not need to change their practices. The pilot program will
require applicant to submit a certification and request to participate in the
pilot program, rather than automatically applying the procedure to all
applicants. The USPTO is providing a certification and request form that
includes educational information regarding domestic benefit claims, foreign
filings, patent term adjustment (PTA) effects, the need for a complete
disclosure of the invention, potential increase in fees, and the benefits of
submitting a complete set of claims. In addition, the USPTO is implementing a
number of educational initiatives to assist independent inventors and other
applicants. Applicants who do not submit a request to participate in the
pilot program will continue to receive a Notice to File Missing Parts of
Nonprovisional Application that sets a two-month (extendable) time period to
reply to the notice in an application that has been accorded a filing date but
has items that are missing.

   The USPTO cautions all applicants that, in order to claim the benefit of a
prior provisional application, the statute requires a nonprovisional
 January 4, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1362 OG 46  

application filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) to be filed within twelve months
after the date on which the corresponding provisional application was filed.
See 35 U.S.C. 119(e). It is essential that applicants understand that the
Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program cannot and does not change this statutory
requirement.

   It is noted that this notice merely describes agency policy and procedures,
and does not involve substantive rule making. While the missing parts practice
in nonprovisional applications is set forth to some extent in 37 CFR 1.53(f),
the rule does not set forth the specific time period that must be given in the
notice to applicant that certain fees or an oath or declaration are required.

I. Requirements: In order for an applicant to be provided a twelve-month
(non-extendable) time period to pay the search and examination fees and any
required excess claims fees in response to a Notice to File Missing Parts of
Nonprovisional Application under the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program,
the applicant must satisfy the following conditions: (1) Applicant must submit
a certification and request to participate in the Extended Missing Parts Pilot
Program with the nonprovisional application on filing, preferably by using
Form PTO/SB/421 entitled "Certification and Request for Extended Missing Parts
Pilot Program"; (2) the application must be an original nonprovisional
utility or plant application filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) within the duration
of the pilot program; (3) the nonprovisional application must directly claim
the benefit under 35 U.S.C. 119(e) and 37 CFR 1.78 of a prior provisional
application filed within the previous twelve months; the specific reference to
the provisional application must be in the first sentence(s) of the
specification following the title or in an application data sheet under 37 CFR
1.76 (see 37 CFR 1.78(a)(5)); and (4) applicant must not have filed a
nonpublication request.

   As required for all nonprovisional applications, applicant will need to
satisfy filing date requirements and publication requirements. In accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 122(b), the USPTO will publish the application promptly after
the expiration of eighteen months from the earliest filing date to which
benefit is sought. Therefore, the nonprovisional application should also be in
condition for publication as provided in 37 CFR 1.211(c). The following are
required in order for the nonprovisional application to be in condition for
publication: (1) The basic filing fee; (2) an executed oath or declaration in
compliance with 37 CFR 1.63; (3) a specification in compliance with 37 CFR
1.52; (4) an abstract in compliance with 37 CFR 1.72(b); (5) drawings in
compliance with 37 CFR 1.84 (if applicable); (6) any application size fee
required under 37 CFR 1.16(s); (7) any English translation required by 37 CFR
1.52(d); and (8) a sequence listing in compliance with 37 CFR 1.821-1.825
(if applicable). The USPTO also requires any petition under 37 CFR 1.47 to be
granted, any compact disc requirements to be satisfied, and an English
translation of the provisional application to be filed in the provisional
application if the provisional application was filed in a non-English language
and a translation has not yet been filed. If the requirements for publication
are not met, applicant will need to satisfy the publication requirements
within a two-month extendable time period as discussed in section II of this
notice.

   As noted above, applicants should request participation in the Extended
Missing Parts Pilot Program by using Form PTO/SB/421. For utility patent
applications, applicant may file the application and the certification and
request electronically using the USPTO electronic filing system, EFS-Web,
and selecting the document description of "Certification and Request for
Missing Parts Pilot" for the certification and request on the EFS-Web screen.
Form PTO/SB/421 will be available on the USPTO Web site at http://frwebgate.
access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/leaving.cgi?from=leavingFR.html&log=linklog&to=http://
www.uspto.gov/forms/index.jsp. Information regarding EFS-Web is available on
the USPTO Web site at http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/leaving.cgi?
from=leavingFR.html&log=linklog&to=http://www.uspto.gov/ebc/index.jsp. The
utility application including the certification and request to participate in
the pilot program may also be filed by mail or hand-carried to the USPTO. For
plant patent applications, applicant must file the application including the
 January 4, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1362 OG 47  

certification and request to participate in the pilot program by mail or
hand-carried to the USPTO since plant patent applications cannot be filed
electronically using EFS-Web. See Legal Framework for Electronic Filing System
Web (EFS-Web), 74 FR 55200 (Oct. 27, 2009), 1348 Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 394
(Nov. 24, 2009).

   It is strongly recommended that any new applications submitted by mail be
filed using the "Express Mail Post Office to Addressee service" of the United
States Postal Service (USPS) in accordance with 37 CFR 1.10 in order for the
application to be considered filed with the USPTO on the date of deposit with
the USPS. If the "Express Mail" service of the USPS (in accordance with 37
CFR 1.10) is not utilized, then the new application can only be accorded the
date of actual receipt in the USPTO (and there is no remedy for an application
that is lost in the mail). New applications cannot be submitted by facsimile
transmission and, if submitted by facsimile transmission, are not accorded a
filing or receipt date and may be returned to applicant. See 37 CFR 1.6(d) and
1.8(a)(2)(i)(A).

II. Processing of Requests: If applicant satisfies the requirements (discussed
above) on filing of the nonprovisional application and the application is in
condition for publication, the USPTO will send applicant a Notice to File
Missing Parts of Nonprovisional Application that sets a twelve-month (non-
extendable) time period to submit the search fee, the examination fee, any
excess claims fees (under 37 CFR 1.16(h)-(j)), and the surcharge under 37 CFR
1.16(f) (for the late submission of the search fee and examination fee). The
twelve-month time period will run from the mailing date, or notification date
for e-Office Action participants, of the Notice to File Missing Parts. For
information on the e-Office Action program, see Electronic Office Action, 1343
Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 45 (June 2, 2009), and http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/
cgi-bin/leaving.cgi?from=leavingFR.html&log=linklog&to=http://www.uspto.gov/
patents/process/status/e-Office_Action.jsp. After an applicant files a timely
reply to the Notice to File Missing Parts within the twelve-month time period
and the nonprovisional application is completed, the nonprovisional
application will be placed in the examination queue based on the actual filing
date of the nonprovisional application.

	A. Application Not in Condition for Publication: If the application
papers need to be corrected in order for the application to be in condition
for publication (such as the specification pages contain improper margins or
line spacing, or the drawings are not acceptable because they are not
electronically reproducible), or if the basic filing fee or an executed oath
or declaration is not submitted on filing, and applicant has submitted a
certification and request to participate in the pilot program, the USPTO will
accept the certification and request but send a Notice to File Missing Parts
of Nonprovisional Application that: (1) Sets a two-month (extendable) time
period for applicant to correct the application papers and/or submit the basic
filing fee or executed oath or declaration and surcharge (if appropriate), and
(2) sets a twelve-month (non-extendable) time period for applicant to submit
the search fee, the examination fee, any excess claims fees, and the surcharge
for the late filing of the search fee and examination fee (if appropriate). If
the basic filing fee and/or an executed oath or declaration is not submitted
on filing, applicant will be required to pay the surcharge under 37 CFR
1.16(f) for the late filing of the basic filing fee and/or executed oath or
declaration within the two-month (extendable) time period. Applicants are
advised that only a single surcharge under 37 CFR 1.16(f) is required in a
nonprovisional application for filing any of the basic filing fee, the
executed oath or declaration, the search fee, or the examination fee after the
filing date of the application.

	Example: On December 15, 2010, applicant files a nonprovisional
utility application under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) that claims the benefit of a
prior-filed provisional application filed December 20, 2009. The benefit
claim to the provisional application is included in the first sentence of
the specification of the nonprovisional application. The nonprovisional
application is filed with a "Certification and Request for Extended Missing
Parts Pilot Program" (Form PTO/SB/421). The nonprovisional application
 January 4, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1362 OG 48  

includes a specification in compliance with 37 CFR 1.52, drawings in
compliance with 37 CFR 1.84, an abstract in compliance with 37 CFR 1.72(b),
and an executed declaration in compliance with 37 CFR 1.63. No fees are
submitted with the nonprovisional application. Thereafter, on January 3, 2011,
the USPTO mails a Notice to File Missing Parts of Nonprovisional Application
that sets: (1) A two-month (extendable) time period for applicant to submit
the basic filing fee and the surcharge under 37 CFR 1.16(f), and (2) sets a
twelve-month (non-extendable) time period for applicant to submit the search
fee and the examination fee. In order to avoid abandonment of the application,
applicant would need to either: (1) Pay the basic filing fee and the surcharge
under 37 CFR 1.16(f) by March 3, 2011, if payment of the basic filing fee and
the surcharge is being submitted without a petition for extension of time
under 37 CFR 1.136(a) and extension fee; or (2) pay the basic filing fee and
the surcharge by no later than August 3, 2011, if submitted with an
appropriate petition for extension of time under 37 CFR 1.136(a) and extension
fee. In addition, applicant would need to pay the search fee and the
examination fee by January 3, 2012, to avoid abandonment of the application.
Applicant would not need to pay another surcharge with the search and
examination fees since the surcharge was paid with the basic filing fee.

	B. Improper Requests: Requests to participate in the Extended Missing
Parts Pilot Program will not be accepted in the following situations:
(1) Where the certification and request is submitted in an application that
is not eligible for the pilot program; (2) where the application is not
entitled to a filing date; (3) where the certification and request is
submitted after the filing date of the nonprovisional application; (4) where
the nonprovisional application does not directly claim the benefit under
35 U.S.C. 119(e) and 37 CFR 1.78 of a provisional application filed within the
previous twelve months; and (5) where a nonpublication request is filed with
the nonprovisional application.

	   (1) Application is Not Eligible: Design applications, provisional
applications, national stage applications under 35 U.S.C. 371, international
(PCT) applications, reissue applications, andreexamination proceedings are
excluded from the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program. In these situations,
the USPTO will send a Notice to File Missing Parts that sets a two-month
(extendable) time period to submit any missing items including fees.
	   (2) No Filing Date: If a nonprovisional application is submitted
that does not meet the requirements under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) to be accorded a
filing date, the USPTO will send a Notice of Incomplete Application that sets
a two-month time limit for applicant to submit the items required for a filing
date. In the situation where a Notice of Incomplete Application is sent, the
certification and request to participate in the Extended Missing Parts Pilot
Program may be accepted once the application is entitled to a filing date if
the requirements of the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program are met. It
should be noted, however, that if the nonprovisional application is accorded
a filing date that is more than twelve months after the provisional
application's filing date, the certification and request to participate will
not be accepted since the benefit claim to the provisional application would
not be proper.
	   (3) Untimely Request: If applicant submits the certification and
request for the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program after the filing date of
the nonprovisional application, the USPTO will not accept the request and the
application will not be eligible for the program. Therefore, the USPTO will
send a Notice to File Missing Parts that sets a two-month (extendable) time
period to submit any missing items including fees.
	   (4) No Proper Benefit Claim: If applicant submits a certification
and request to participate in the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program, but
does not include a claim for the benefit under 35 U.S.C. 119(e) and 37 CFR
1.78 of a prior provisional application, the USPTO will send applicant a
Notice to File Missing Parts that only sets a two-month time period. In this
situation, applicant may submit a proper benefit claim of a prior provisional
application within four months from the filing date of the nonprovisional
application if applicant still wants a twelve-month time period to submit the
search fee, examination fee, any excess claims fees, and the surcharge (if
appropriate). Applicant would need to timely file any other items required in
 January 4, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1362 OG 49  

the Notice to File Missing Parts. If applicant submits a proper benefit claim
within four months, the USPTO would send a notice (e.g., a Notice of
Incomplete Reply) that states applicant has a twelve-month time period from
the mailing date (or notification date) of the initial Notice to File Missing
Parts to submit the search fee, examination fee, any excess claims fees, and
the surcharge (if the surcharge is not required for the late filing of the
basic filing fee or an executed oath or declaration). If it is more than four
months from the filing date of the nonprovisional application, applicant would
most likely need a petition under 37 CFR 1.78 to accept an unintentionally
delayed claim for the benefit of a prior provisional application. Therefore,
applicants will not be permitted to add or correct the benefit claim under
35 U.S.C. 119(e) and 37 CFR 1.78 for the purpose of being eligible for the
pilot program if it is more than four months from the filing date of the
nonprovisional application.
	   (5) A Nonpublication Request is Filed: If applicant submits a
nonpublication request and a certification and request to participate in the
Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program on filing of the application and thus
the USPTO sends a Notice to File Missing Parts that only sets a two-month
time period, applicant may submit a timely and properly signed rescission of
the nonpublication request (e.g., PTO/SB/36) if applicant still wants a
twelve-month time period to submit the search fee, examination fee, any
excess claims fees, and the surcharge (if appropriate). Applicant would need
to timely file any other items required in the Notice to File Missing Parts.
If applicant submits such a proper rescission of the nonpublication request,
the USPTO would send a notice (e.g., a Notice of Incomplete Reply) that
states applicant has a twelve-month time period from the mailing date (or
notification date) of the initial Notice to File Missing Parts to submit the
search fee, examination fee, any excess claims fees, and the surcharge (if
the surcharge is not required for the late filing of the basic filing fee or
an executed oath or declaration).

         C. Authorization to Charge Fees: If applicant wishes to participate
in the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program, applicant should not provide a
general authorization to charge fees or a specific authorization to charge the
search, examination, and/or excess claims fees to a deposit account. However,
in the rare situation where applicant files a proper certification and request
to participate in the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program with the
application on filing, and all other requirements set forth in this notice are
satisfied, but applicant submits an authorization to charge fees to a deposit
account that covers fees set forth in 37 CFR 1.16, the USPTO will:
(1) Recognize the certification and request to participate in the Extended
Missing Parts Pilot Program; (2) provide applicant a twelve-month (non-
extendable) time period to pay the search and examination fees, any required
excess claims fees, and the surcharge (if appropriate) in response to a
Notice to File Missing Parts of Nonprovisional Application under the Extended
Missing Parts Pilot Program; and (3) charge the basic filing fee and any
required application size fee if not otherwise submitted. In this situation,
the Office will accept the authorization to charge fees to a deposit account
for any fees that are due, excluding the search and examination fees and
excess claims fees. Thus, applicant will be eligible for the Extended Missing
Parts Pilot Program and must reply to the Notice to File Missing Parts of
Nonprovisional Application under the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program
within the twelve-month time period by paying the search and examination fees,
any required excess claims fees, and any required surcharge, to avoid the
abandonment of the application.

III. Important Reminders: Applicants are reminded that the disclosure of an
invention in a provisional application should be as complete as possible
because the claimed subject matter in the later-filed nonprovisional
application must have support in the provisional application in order for the
applicant to obtain the benefit of the filing date of the provisional
application.

   Furthermore, the nonprovisional application as originally filed must have a
complete disclosure that complies with 35 U.S.C. 112, first paragraph, which
is sufficient to support the claims submitted on filing and any claims
 January 4, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1362 OG 50  

submitted later during prosecution. New matter cannot be added to an
application after the filing date of the application. See 35 U.S.C. 132(a).
In order to be accorded a filing date, a nonprovisional application requires
a specification as prescribed by 35 U.S.C. 112, which requires the
specification to conclude with at least one claim, and drawings as prescribed
by 35 U.S.C. 113, which requires drawings if necessary for an understanding
of the invention. See 35 U.S.C. 111(a). While only one claim is required in a
nonprovisional application for filing date purposes and applicant may file an
amendment adding additional claims later during prosecution, applicant should
consider the benefits of submitting a complete set of claims on filing of the
nonprovisional application. This would reduce the likelihood of adding claims
later during prosecution that contain new matter. Also, if a patent is granted
and the patentee is successful in litigation against an infringer, provisional
rights to a reasonable royalty under 35 U.S.C. 154(d) may be available only if
the claims that are published in the patent application publication are
substantially identical to the patented claims that are infringed, assuming
timely actual notice is provided. Thus, the importance of the claims that are
included in the patent application publication should not be overlooked.

   Applicants are also advised that the extended missing parts period does not
affect the twelve-month priority period provided by the Paris Convention for
the Protection of Industrial Property (Paris Convention). Thus, any foreign
filings must still be made within twelve months of the filing date of the
provisional application if applicant wishes to rely on the provisional
application in the foreign-filed application or if protection is desired in a
country requiring filing within twelve months of the earliest application for
which rights are left outstanding in order to be entitled to priority.

   The current patent term adjustment (PTA) provisions apply to all original
utility or plant nonprovisional applications filed on or after May 29, 2000,
which will include applications under the pilot program. Therefore, any PTA
accrued by an applicant based on certain administrative delays by the USPTO
is offset by a reduction for failing to reply to a notice by the USPTO within
three months. See 37 CFR 1.704(b). If an applicant replies to a Notice to File
Missing Parts more than three months after mailing (or notification) of the
notice, the additional time will be treated as an offset to any positive PTA
that is accrued by applicant.

   In no event will a reduction under 37 CFR 1.704(b) reduce the twenty-year
patent term. The "twenty-year patent term" refers to the term of a patent
(other than a design patent) that begins on the date the patent issues and
ends on the date that is twenty years from the date on which the application
for patent was filed in the United States or, if the application contains a
specific reference to an earlier filed application or applications under 35
U.S.C. 120, 121, or 365(c), twenty years from the filing date of the earliest
of such application(s). See 35 U.S.C. 154(a)(2). Domestic benefit under 35
U.S.C. 119(e) to one or more provisional applications is not considered in the
calculation of the twenty-year term. For more information on patent term, see
section 2701 of the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure (MPEP) (8th ed. 2001)
(Rev. 2, May 2004).

   Applicants are also reminded that fees are subject to change and the fees
that are due in an application are the fees in effect at the time of fee
payment. Therefore, if the search fee, examination fee, excess claims fees,
and/or the surcharge (or any other fees) have increased after the mailing
(or notification) of a Notice to File Missing Parts that sets a time period
to pay such fees, applicant will be required to pay the increased fee amounts.
Applicants should consult the current fee schedule on the USPTO Web site
before paying any fees that are due.

   Form PTO/SB/421 will include an identification of the requirements of the
Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program as well as various acknowledgments
regarding the pilot program. Therefore, applicants requesting participation
in the Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program should be aware of the
requirements and the potential drawbacks of the pilot program.
 January 4, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1362 OG 51  

IV. Paperwork Reduction Act: An applicant who wishes to participate in the
pilot program must submit a certification and request to participate in the
Extended Missing Parts Pilot Program, preferably by using Form PTO/SB/421.
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has determined that, under 5 CFR
1320.3(h), Form PTO/SB/421 does not collect "information" within the meaning
of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Therefore,
this notice does not involve information collection requirements which are
subject to review by OMB.

   The USPTO previously published the notice Missing Parts Practice, 75 FR
53631 (Sept. 1, 2010), requesting comments on the USPTO's proposal to collect
information using Form PTO/SB/421. In light of OMB's determination that Form
PTO/SB/421 does not collect information within the meaning of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the USPTO is withdrawing the
request for comments issued in the September 1, 2010 notice.

V. Additional Information: While the USPTO also requested comments on an
optional service of having an international style search report prepared
during the twelve-month extended missing parts period, the USPTO is not
implementing such a service at this time.
