How does the USPTO handle amendments accompanying partially granted motions?
When an amendment accompanies a motion that is only partially granted, the USPTO handles it as follows:
According to MPEP 714.20: “In an amendment accompanying a motion granted only in part, the amendment is entered only to the extent that the motion was granted.”
This means that only the portions of the amendment related to the granted part of the motion will be entered into the application. The parts of the amendment corresponding to the denied portions of the motion will not be entered.
