If the Examiner wishes to maintain the instant rejection, the Examiner must accordingly provide a supplemental Examiner’s Answer in which the Examiner correctly applies the proper requirements, as prescribed under current patent law. CONCLUSION This remand to the Examiner pursuant to 37 CFR § 41.50(a)(1) is made for further consideration of a rejection. Accordingly, 37 CFR § 41.50(a)(2) applies if a supplemental Examiner’s Answer is written in response to this remand by the Board. This application, by virtue of its “special” status, requires an immediate action. See MPEP § 708.01 (8th ed., Rev. 3, August 2005). It is important that the Board be informed promptly of any action affecting the appeal in this case. 5Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
