Can I use both sides of the paper when submitting assignment documents to the USPTO?
No, you cannot use both sides of the paper when submitting assignment documents to the USPTO. For paper or facsimile submissions, only one side of each page may be used.
As stated in 37 CFR 3.24(b): Only one side of each page may be used.
This requirement ensures that all information is clearly visible and can be properly scanned and recorded by the USPTO. Using both sides of the paper could result in missed information or difficulties in processing your document.
