Where can I find information about supplemental examination of patents?
Information about supplemental examination of patents can be found in MPEP Chapter 2800. As stated in MPEP 1400.01:
“The fifth way (supplemental examination) is discussed in MPEP Chapter 2800.”
Supplemental examination is a procedure that allows patent owners to request the USPTO to consider, reconsider, or correct information believed to be relevant to their patent. This process can help strengthen the patent and potentially protect it from allegations of inequitable conduct.
