          error in that it gave March 15, 1988, as the date of the first                
          drawing when in fact the date of the first drawing, which was

            Section 1.628(a) reads as follows:37                                                                       
                    (a) A material error arising through inadvertence or                
               mistake in connection with a preliminary statement or                    
               drawings or a written description submitted therewith or                 
               omitted therefrom, may be corrected by a motion (§ 1.635)                
               for leave to file a corrected statement.  The motion                     
               shall be supported by an affidavit stating the date the                  
               error was first discovered, shall be accompanied by the                  
               corrected statement and shall be filed as soon as                        
               practical after discovery of the error.  If filed on or                  
               after the date set by the administrative patent judge for                
               service of preliminary statements, the motion shall also                 
               show that correction of the error is essential to the                    
               interest of justice.
