Changes to Implement First Inventor to File
The final rule published in the Federal Register on February 14, 2013 discussing the revised rules of practice for the first inventor to file provisions was missing text about claims for priority regarding a foreign application filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT). See this new final rule at http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-03-14/html/2013-05815.htm to read the missing text.
