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

   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

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

        Revision of the Materiality to Patentability Standard for the
              Duty To Disclose Information in Patent Applications

AGENCY: United States Patent and Trademark Office, Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: The United States Patent and Trademark Office (Office or PTO)
is proposing to revise the standard for materiality for the duty to disclose
information in patent applications and reexamination proceedings in light of
the decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (Federal
Circuit or Court) in Therasense, Inc. v. Becton, Dickinson & Co.
Specifically, the Office is proposing to revise the materiality standard for
the duty to disclose to match the materiality standard, as defined in
Therasense, for the inequitable conduct doctrine. While Therasense does not
require the Office to harmonize the materiality standards underlying the duty
of disclosure and the inequitable conduct doctrine, the Office believes that
there are important reasons to do so. The materiality standard set forth in
Therasense should reduce the frequency with which applicants and
practitioners are being charged with inequitable conduct, consequently
reducing the incentive to submit information disclosure statements
containing marginally relevant information and enabling applicants to be more
forthcoming and helpful to the Office. At the same time, it should also
continue to prevent fraud on the Office and other egregious forms of
misconduct. Additionally, harmonization of the materiality standards is
simpler for the patent system as a whole.

DATES: The Office solicits comments from the public on this proposed
rule change. Written comments must be received on or before September
19, 2011 to ensure consideration. No public hearing will be held.

ADDRESSES: Comments concerning this notice should be sent by electronic
mail message over the Internet addressed to AC58.comments@uspto.gov.
Comments may also be submitted by mail addressed to: Mail Stop
Comments-Patents, Commissioner for Patents, P.O. Box 1450, Alexandria,
VA 22313-1450, marked to the attention of Hiram H. Bernstein, Senior
Legal Advisor, Office of Patent Legal Administration, Office of the
Associate Commissioner for Patent Examination Policy. Although comments
may be submitted by mail, the Office prefers to receive comments via
the Internet.
   Comments may also be sent by electronic mail message over the Internet
via the Federal eRulemaking Portal. See the Federal eRulemaking Portal Web
site (http://www.regulations.gov) for additional instructions on providing
comments via the Federal eRulemaking Portal. The comments will be available
for public inspection at the Office of the Commissioner for Patents, located
in Madison East, Tenth Floor, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria, Virginia, and
will be available via the Internet (http://www.uspto.gov). Because comments
will be made available for public inspection,information that the submitter
does not desire to make public, such as an address or phone number, should
not be included in the comments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office is proposing to revise the materiality
standard for the duty to disclose information to the Office in patent
applications and reexamination proceedings set forth in §§ 1.56(b) and
1.555(b) in light of the Federal Circuit's decision in Therasense, Inc. v.
Becton, Dickinson & Co., ------ F.3d ------, 2011 WL 2028255 (Fed. Cir. 2011)
(en banc). Specifically, the Office is proposing to adopt the standard for
materiality required to establish inequitable conduct as defined in Therasense
as the standard for materiality under §§ 1.56(b) and 1.555(b).
   In Therasense, the Court defined materiality using a "but-for-plus"
standard. As the general rule, the Court explained that "[w]hen an applicant
fails to disclose prior art to the PTO, that prior art is but-for material if
the PTO would not have allowed a claim had it been aware of the undisclosed
prior art." Therasense, 2011 WL 2028255, at *11. Said differently, the Court
explained: "[I]n assessing the materiality of a withheld reference, the court
must determine whether the PTO would have allowed the claim if it had been
aware of the undisclosed reference[,] * * * apply[ing] the preponderance of
the evidence standard and giv[ing] claims their broadest reasonable
construction." Id. The Court also recognized that "affirmative acts
of egregious misconduct," Id. at *12, before the PTO are unacceptable:
"Although but-for materiality generally must be proved to satisfy the
materiality prong of inequitable conduct, this court recognizes an exception
in cases of affirmative egregious misconduct." Id. The Court reasoned that
"a patentee is unlikely to go to great lengths to deceive the PTO with a
falsehood unless it believes that the falsehood will affect issuance of the
patent." Id. The Court clarified that "neither mere nondisclosure of prior art
references to the PTO nor failure to mention prior art references in an
affidavit constitutes affirmative egregious misconduct." Id. Lastly, the Court
identified the submission of an unmistakably false affidavit as an example of
affirmative egregious misconduct. Id.
   Historically, the Federal Circuit connected the materiality standard for
inequitable conduct with the PTO's materiality standard for the duty of
disclosure. That is, the Court has invoked the materiality standard for the
duty of disclosure to measure materiality in cases raising claims of
inequitable conduct. In doing so, the Court has utilized both the "reasonable
examiner" standard set forth in the 1977 version of §§ 1.56(b) and current
§ 1.56(b) promulgated in 1992. See, e.g., Am. Hoist & Derrick Co. v. Sowa &
Sons, Inc., 725 F.2d 1350, 1363 (Fed. Cir. 1984); Bruno Indep. Living Aids,
Inc. v. Acorn Mobility Servs., Inc., 394 F.3d 1348, 1352-53 (Fed. Cir. 2005).
While the Therasense Court severed what existed of the historical connection
between the two materiality standards, as most recently articulated in
Digital Control Inc. v. Charles Mach. Works, 437 F.3d 1309, 1315-16 (Fed.
Cir. 2006) (identifying the PTO's current standard as one of many standards
the courts could apply), it did not indicate that the Office must apply the
standard for materiality required to establish inequitable conduct under
Therasense as the standard for determining materiality under § 1.56(b) or
§ 1.555(b). As the dissent in Therasense noted: "the scope of the court-
made [inequitable conduct] doctrine is not inseparably tied to the breadth of
the PTO's disclosure rules." Therasense, 2011 WL 2028255, at *33. The Office,
however, believes that there are important reasons to amend § 1.56(b) and
§ 1.555(b) so that the PTO's materiality standard for the duty of disclosure
matches the materiality standard for inequitable conduct.
   While not as inclusive as current § 1.56(b), the Office expects that the
"but-for-plus" standard from Therasense will result in patent applicants
providing the most relevant information and reduce the incentive for
applicants to submit information disclosure statements containing only
marginally relevant information out of an abundance of caution. The Court
stated that its "but-for-plus" standard, "[b]y creating an exception to
punish affirmative egregious acts without penalizing the failure to disclose
information that would not have changed the issuance decision, * * * strikes
a necessary balance between encouraging honesty before the PTO and preventing
unfounded accusations of inequitable conduct." Therasense, 2011 WL 2028255,
at *12. Thus, the Office expects that the "but-for-plus" standard will reduce
the frequency with which applicants and practitioners are being charged with
inequitable conduct, thereby reducing the incentive for applicants to submit
marginally relevant information to the Office. At the same time, it will
continue to prevent applicants from deceiving the Office and breaching their
 August 23, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1369 OG 226  

duty of candor and good faith.
   The Office also believes that a unitary materiality standard is simpler
for the patent bar to implement. Under the single "but-for-plus" standard of
materiality, patent applicants will not be put in the position of having to
meet one standard for materiality as defined in Therasense in defending
against inequitable conduct allegations and a second, different materiality
standard to fulfill the duty to disclose before the Office.
   The Office recognizes that it previously considered, and rejected,
a "but-for" standard for the duty of disclosure in 1992 when it promulgated
current § 1.56(b). Duty of Disclosure, 57 FR 2021, 2024 (Jan. 17, 1992). The
affirmative egregious misconduct exception set forth in Therasense addresses
the Office's long-standing concern about the types of unscrupulous conduct
that could occur unchecked under a pure "but-for" standard.
   Although the Office is proposing to revise §§ 1.56(b) and 1.555(b) to match
the "but-for-plus" materiality standard announced in Therasense, the Office
recognizes that Therasense could be reviewed by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Because the rule making process is lengthy and because the Office prefers to
receive and consider public comments before issuing a final rule, the Office
is proceeding in parallel with the possibility of a Therasense certiorari
petition. Should a petition for certiorari be filed and the Supreme Court
grant review of the case, the Office will consider delaying issuance of a
final rule until the Supreme Court has issued its decision.
   Additionally, the Office is considering further actions that may
provide an incentive for applicants to assist the Office by explaining/
clarifying the relationship of prior art to the claimed invention. While this
form of information would not implicate the standard of materiality as that
term has been defined in Therasense, and therefore would not be required under
the proposed changes to § 1.56, the Office believes it is worthwhile to
explore ways to encourage applicants to submit information, beyond that
required under the Therasense materiality standard, that would be helpful and
useful in advancing examination.

Discussion of Specific Rules

   Title 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 1, is proposed to
be amended as follows:
   Section 1.56: Section 1.56(b) as proposed to be amended would
provide that information is material to patentability if it is material
under the standard set forth in Therasense, and that information is
material to patentability under Therasense if: (1) The Office would not
allow a claim if it were aware of the information, applying the
preponderance of the evidence standard and giving the claim its
broadest reasonable construction; or (2) the applicant engages in
affirmative egregious misconduct before the Office as to the
information. As stated in Therasense, neither mere nondisclosure of
information to the Office nor failure to mention information in an
affidavit, declaration, or other statement to the Office constitutes
affirmative egregious misconduct. Therasense, 2011 WL 2028255, at *12.
   The Office notes that, under the "but-for-plus" standard of Therasense,
information is not material if the pending claim is allowable, applying the
preponderance of the evidence standard and giving the claim its broadest
reasonable construction, and the applicant does not engage in affirmative
egregious misconduct before the Office as to the information. The Office
recognizes the tension inherent in a disclosure standard based on
unpatentability, but appreciates and expects that patent applicants are
inclined to be forthcoming and submit information beyond that required by
proposed Rule 56, in an effort to assist examiners in performing their
duties. The Office wishes to facilitate and encourage such efforts by
applicants. While applicants should avoid drafting claims that are
unpatentable in the face of the prior art they disclose, the Office
will not regard information disclosures as admissions of unpatentability
for any claims in the application. See § 1.97(h). In addition, there is no
duty under § 1.56 to submit information that is not material under the
"but-for-plus" standard of Therasense and § 1.56(b).
   Section 1.555: Section 1.555(b) as proposed to be amended would
provide that information is material to patentability if it is material
 August 23, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1369 OG 227  

under the standard set forth in Therasense, and that information is
material to patentability under Therasense if: (1) The Office would not
find a claim patentable if it were aware of the information, applying
the preponderance of the evidence standard and giving the claim its
broadest reasonable construction; or (2) the patent owner engages in
affirmative egregious misconduct before the Office as to the information.
Again as stated in Therasense, neither mere nondisclosure of information to
the Office nor failure to mention information in an affidavit, declaration,
or other statement to the Office constitutes affirmative egregious
misconduct. Therasense, 2011 WL 2028255, at *12.
   Section 1.933 is directed to the duty of disclosure in inter partes
reexamination proceedings; however, the statement as to materiality of
information simply incorporates § 1.555. Thus, no revision is proposed for
§ 1.933.

Rule Making Considerations

   A. Regulatory Flexibility Act: For the reasons set forth herein,
the Deputy General Counsel for General Law of the United States Patent
and Trademark Office has certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of
the Small Business Administration that changes proposed in this notice
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. See 5 U.S.C. 605(b).
   This notice proposes to harmonize the standard for materiality
under §§ 1.56 and 1.555 with the standard for materiality
required to establish inequitable conduct. Additionally, the single
harmonized materiality standard should reduce the incentives to submit
information of marginal relevance. This notice does not propose any
additional fees or requirements on patent applicants or patentees.
Therefore, the changes proposed in this notice will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
   B. Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review): This
rule making has been determined to be not significant for purposes of
Executive Order 12866 (Sept. 30, 1993).
   C. Executive Order 13563 (Improving Regulation and Regulatory
Review): The Office has complied with Executive Order 13563.
Specifically, the Office has, to the extent feasible: (1) Used the best
available techniques to quantify costs and benefits, and has considered
values such as equity, fairness and distributive impacts; (2) involved
the public in an open exchange of information and perspectives among
experts in relevant disciplines, affected stakeholders in the private
sector and the public as a whole, and provided on-line access to the
rule making docket; (3) attempted to promote coordination,
simplification and harmonization across government agencies and
identified goals designed to promote innovation; (4) considered
approaches that reduce burdens and maintain flexibility and freedom of
choice for the public; and (5) ensured the objectivity of scientific
and technological information and processes, to the extent applicable.
   D. Executive Order 13132 (Federalism): This rule making does not
contain policies with federalism implications sufficient to warrant
preparation of a Federalism Assessment under Executive Order 13132
(Aug. 4, 1999).
   E. Executive Order 13175 (Tribal Consultation): This rule making
will not: (1) Have substantial direct effects on one or more Indian
tribes; (2) impose substantial direct compliance costs on Indian tribal
governments; or (3) preempt tribal law. Therefore, a tribal summary
impact statement is not required under Executive Order 13175 (Nov. 6,
2000).
   F. Executive Order 13211 (Energy Effects): This rule making is not
a significant energy action under Executive Order 13211 because this
rule making is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the
supply, distribution, or use of energy. Therefore, a Statement of
Energy Effects is not required under Executive Order 13211 (May 18,
2001).
   G. Executive Order 12988 (Civil Justice Reform): This rule making
meets applicable standards to minimize litigation, eliminate ambiguity,
 August 23, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1369 OG 228  

and reduce burden as set forth in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of
Executive Order 12988 (Feb. 5, 1996).
   H. Executive Order 13045 (Protection of Children): This rule making
does not concern an environmental risk to health or safety that may
disproportionately affect children under Executive Order 13045 (Apr.
21, 1997).
   I. Executive Order 12630 (Taking of Private Property): This rule
making will not effect a taking of private property or otherwise have
taking implications under Executive Order 12630 (Mar. 15, 1988).
   J. Congressional Review Act: Under the Congressional Review Act
provisions of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of
1996 (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), prior to issuing any final rule, the
United States Patent and Trademark Office will submit a report
containing the final rule and other required information to the U.S.
Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives and the Comptroller General of
the Government Accountability Office. The changes in this notice are not
expected to result in an annual effect on the economy of 100 million
dollars or more, a major increase in costs or prices, or significant adverse
effects on competition, employment, investment, productivity, innovation,
or the ability of United States-based enterprises to compete with foreign-
based enterprises in domestic and export markets. Therefore, this notice is
not expected to result in a "major rule" as defined in 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
   K. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995: The changes proposed in
this notice do not involve a Federal intergovernmental mandate that
will result in the expenditure by State, local, and tribal governments,
in the aggregate, of 100 million dollars (as adjusted) or more in any
one year, or a Federal private sector mandate that will result in the
expenditure by the private sector of 100 million dollars (as adjusted)
or more in any one year, and will not significantly or uniquely affect
small governments. Therefore, no actions are necessary under the
provisions of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995. See 2 U.S.C.
1501 et seq.
   L. National Environmental Policy Act: This rule making will not
have any effect on the quality of environment and is thus categorically
excluded from review under the National Environmental Policy Act of
1969. See 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.
   M. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act: The requirements
of section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) are not applicable because this rule making
does not contain provisions which involve the use of technical standards.
   N. Paperwork Reduction Act: The changes in this rule making involve
information collection requirements which are subject to review by the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). The collection of information
involved in this notice has been reviewed and approved by OMB under OMB
control number 0651-0031. This rule making proposes to harmonize the
standard for materiality under §§ 1.56 and 1.555 with the standard for
materiality required to establish inequitable conduct. This notice does
not propose any additional fees or information collection requirements on
patent applicants or patentees.
   Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required
to respond to nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to
comply with a collection of information subject to the requirements of
the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information displays
a currently valid OMB control number.

   3. Section 1.555 is amended by revising paragraph (b) to read as follows:

§ 1.555  Information material to patentability in ex parte reexamination and

   (b) Information is material to patentability if it is material under the
 standard set forth in Therasense, Inc. v. Becton, Dickinson & Co.,
 -  -  -  F.3d  -  -  -  (Fed. Cir. 2011). Information is material to
patentability under Therasense if:

   (1) The Office would not find a claim patentable if it were aware
of the information, applying the preponderance of the evidence standard
and giving the claim its broadest reasonable construction; or
   (2) The patent owner engages in affirmative egregious misconduct
before the Office as to the information.

Clarification of Criteria for Reissue Error in View of In re Tanaka 
                         Clarification of Criteria for
                     Reissue Error in View of In re Tanaka

A.  Summary

   The United States Patent and Trademark Office (the "Office") is providing
notification of change in policy based on the recent decision of the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit of In re Tanaka. In a reissue
application, the addition of claims that are narrower in scope than the
existing claims, without any narrowing of the existing patent claims, may
be the basis for correcting an error under 35 U.S.C. § 251 to support a
proper reissue application. A rejection under 35 U.S.C. § 251 will no longer
be made in this scenario, provided that the claims are otherwise compliant
with 35 U.S.C. § 251. This change revises the policy in the current Manual
of Patent Examining Procedure (MPEP) that is provided in MPEP § 1402.

B. Discussion

   The Manual of Patent Examining Procedure (MPEP) § 1402 was revised in
July of 2008 to state:

      An error under 35 U.S.C. 251 has not been presented where a reissue
      application only adds one or more claims that is/are narrower than one
      or more broader existing patent claims without either narrowing the
      broader patent claim by amendment or canceling the broader patent claim.
      A reissue application in which the only error specified to support
      reissue is the failure to include one or more claims that is/are
      narrower than at least one of the existing patent claim(s) without an
      allegation that one or more of the broader patent claim(s) is/are too
      broad together with an amendment to such claim(s), does not meet the
      requirements of 35 U.S.C. 251. Such a reissue application should not be
      allowed. [Emphasis in original.]

MPEP § 1402, July 2008, page 1400-2.

   Tanaka sought reissue to add one dependent claim to his original patent.
Because the only error alleged was the failure to present the narrower
dependent claim during the original patent examination, the examiner rejected
the reissue application under 35 U.S.C. 251, relying on MPEP § 1402. The
Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences (the "Board") affirmed the examiner
on appeal (see Ex parte Tanaka, 93 USPQ2d 1291, 92 (Bd. Pat. App. & Int.
2009), and the matter was appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit.

   On appeal, the Federal Circuit held, in its decision of In re Tanaka, 640
F. 3d 1246, 1251, 98 USPQ2d 1331, 1334 (Fed. Cir. 2011), that "the omission
of a narrower claim from a patent can render a patent partly inoperative by
failing to protect the disclosed invention to the full extent allowed by
law."  Tanaka, 640 F. 3d at 1251, 98 USPQ2d at 1334. The court went on to
state that:

      "[t]his court also rejects the PTO's assertion that the omission of a
      narrower claim from an original patent does not constitute an error
      under § 251 because the omission of a dependent claim does not render
      the patent inoperative. While the Board correctly recognized that a
      patent is inoperative under § 251 if it is ineffective to protect the
      disclosed invention, the Board improperly assumed that Tanaka's
      original patent cannot be deemed partly inoperative in the absence of
      claim 16, whose scope is subsumed by claim 1, from which it depends....
      Finally, this court rejects the Board's conclusion that adding a single
      dependent claim to the originally issued claims is equivalent to the
      disallowed practice of filing a 'no defect' reissue." Tanaka, 640
      F. 3d at 1250-51, 98 USPQ2d at 1334 [emphasis added].

   Even further, the court stated that "... the narrow rule relating to the
 August 23, 2011 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1369 OG 231  

addition of dependent claims as a hedge against possible invalidity has been
embraced as a reasonable interpretation of the reissue statute by this
court...."  Tanaka, 640 F. 3d at 1251-52, 98 USPQ2d at 1335.

   The current version of MPEP § 1402 is not consistent with the Tanaka
decision.

C. Implementation of New Policy

   Effective immediately, the following policy is implemented. Where the only
change to a patent made in an application for its reissue is the addition of
a claim or claims that is/are narrower in scope than the existing patent
claims, without any narrowing of the existing patent claims, the application
claims are not to be rejected as failing to state an error under 35 U.S.C.
§ 251. In addition, any rejection of record in a pending application on this
basis is to be withdrawn, and a new Office action issued to inform applicant
of the withdrawal, and the resulting status of the application in view of the
withdrawal.

MPEP § 1402 will be revised in due course to reflect the holding in Tanaka.
