`NOTE:
`“A nonprovisional application or intemational application designating the United States of America may
`claim an invention disclosed in one or more prior-filed copending nonprovisional applications or
`international applications designating the United States of America. In order for an application to claim
`the benefit of a prior-filed copending nonprovisional application or intemational application designating
`the United States of America, each prior-filed application must name as an inventorat least one inventor
`namedin the later-filed application and disclose the named inventor's invention claimed in at least one
`claim of the later-filed application in the manner provided by the first paragraph of 35 U.S.C. 112. In
`addition, each prior-filed application must be:
`(i) An international application entitled to a filing date in accordance with PCT Article 11 and
`designating the United States of America, or
`
`fii) Complete as set forth in § 1.51(b); or
`fii) Entitled to a filing date as set forth in § 1.53(b) or § 1.53(d) and include the basic filing fee set
`forth in § 1.16; or
`(iv) Entitled to a filing date as set forth in § 1.53(b) and have paid therein the processing and retention
`fee set forth in § 1.21()) within the time period set forth in § 1.53(f.
`
`37 CFR. § 1.78(a}(1).
`WARNING:
`If an application claims the benefit ofthefiling date of an earlier filed application under 35 U.S.C.
`§§ 120, 121 or 365(c), the 20-year term ofthat application will be based upon the filing date of
`the earliest U.S. application that the application makes reference to under 35 U.S.C. §§ 120, 121
`or 365(c). (35 U.S.C. § 154(a)(2) does not take into account, for the determination of the patent
`term, any application on which priority is claimed under 35 U.S.C. §§ 119, 365(a) or 365(b).) For
`a c-i-p application, applicant should review whether any claim in the patent that will issue is
`supportedbyan earlier application and,ifnot, the applicant should consider canceling the reference
`to the earlier filed application. The term of a patent is not based on a claim-by-claim approach.

`
`“2)) Except for a continued prosecution application filed under § 1.53(d), any nonprovisional
`application or intemational application designating the United States of America claiming the benefit
`of one or more prior-filed copending nonprovisional applications or international applications
`designating the United States of America must contain or be amended to contain a reference to each
`such prior-filed application, identifying it by application number (consisting of the series code and
`serial number) or international application number and intemational filing date and indicating the
`relationship of the applications. Cross references to other related applications may be made when
`appropnate (see § 1.14).
`
`(i) This reference must be submitted during the pendencyof the later-filed application. If the
`later-filed application is an application filed under 35 U.S.C. 111{a), this reference must also be
`submitted within the later of four months from the actual filing date of the later-filed application
`or sixteen months from thefiling date of the prior-filed application. If the later-filed application is
`@ nonprovisional application which entered the national stage from an international application after
`compliance with 35 U.S.C. 371, this reference must also be submitted within the later of four months
`from the date on which the national stage commenced under 35 U.S.C. 371(b) or(in the later-filed
`international application or sixteen months from the filing date of the prior-filed application. These
`time periods are not extendable. Except as provided in paragraph (a)(3) of this section, the failure
`to timely submit the reference required by 35 U.S.C. 120 and paragraph (a)(2){) of this section is
`considered a waiver ofany benefit under 35 U.S.C. 120, 127, or365(c) to such prior-filed application.
`The time periods in this paragraph do not apply if the later-filed application is:
`(A) An application for a design patent;
`(8) An application filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) before November 29, 2000; or
`
`(C) A nonprovisional application which entered the national stage after compliance with 35 U.S.C.
`371 from an intemational application filed under 35 U.S.C. 363 before November 29, 2000.
`
`(iii) If the later-filed application is a nonprovisional application, the reference required by this
`Paragraph must be included in an application data sheet (§ 1.76), or the specification must contain
`or be amended to contain such reference in the first sentence following the title.
`(iv) The requestfor a continued prosecution application under § 1.53(d) is the specific reference
`required by 35 U.S.C. 120 to the prior-filed application. The identification of an application by
`application number underthis sectionis the identification of every application assigned that application
`number necessary for a specific reference required by 35 U.S.C. 120 ta every such application
`assigned that application number.”

`11. Assertion of Small Entity Status
`0 «Applicant hereby asserts status as a small entity under 37 C.F.R. § 1.27
`NOTE: 37 C.F.R. § 1.27(c) deals with the assertion of smail entity status, whether by a written specific
`declaration thereof or by payment as a small entity of the basicfiling fee or the fee for the entry into
`the national phase and states:
`“(c) Assertion of small entity status. Any party (person, smail business concern or nonprofit
`organization) should make a determination, pursuant to paragraph (§ of this section, of entitlement
`to be accorded smail entity status based on the definitions set forth in paragraph (a) of this section,
`and must, in order to establish small entity status for the purpose of paying small entity fees, actually
`make an assertion of entitlement to small entity status, in the manner set forth in paragraphs (c)(1)
`or (c)(3) of this section, in the application or patent in which such smail entity fees are to be paid.
`(1) Assertion by writing. Small entity status may be established by a written assertion of entitlement
`to small entity status. A written assertion must:
`() Be clearly identifiable;
`
`(ii) Be signed (see paragraph (c)(2) of this section); and
`(ii) Convey the conceptof entitlement to smail entity status, such as by stating that applicant
`is a small entity, or that small entity status is entitled to be asserted for the application or patent.
`While no specific words or wording are required to assert small entity status, the intent to assert
`small entity status must be clearly indicated in order to comply with the assertion requirement.
`(2) Parties who can sign andfile the written assertion. The written assertion can be signed by:
`() One of the parties identified in § 1.33(b) (e.g., an attorney or agent registered with the Office),
`§ 3.73(b) of this chapter notwithstanding, who can also file the written assertion;
`(i) At least one ofthe individuals identified as an inventor (even though a § 1.63 executed oath
`or declaration has not been submitted), notwithstanding § 1.33(b)(4), who can also file the written
`assertion pursuant to the exception under § 1.33(b) of this part; or
`
`(ii) An assignee of an undivided part interest, notwithstanding §§ 1.33(b)(3) and 3.73(b) of this
`chapter, but the partial assignee cannotfile the assertion without resort to a party identified under
`§ 1.33(b) of this part.
`
`(3) Assertion by paymentof the small entity basic filing or basic national fee. The payment, by any
`party, of the exact amount of one of the smalf entity basic filing fees set forth in §§ 1.16(a), (9,
`(g), (h), or (k), or one of the small entity basic national fees set forth in §§ 1.492(a\(1), (a2), (a3),
`(a)(4), or (a)(5), will be treated as a written assertion of entitlement to smail entity status even if the
`type of basic filing or basic national fee is inadvertently selected in error.
`() If the Office accords smail entity status based on paymentof a small entity basic filing or basic
`national fee under paragraph (c)(3) of this section that is not applicable to that application, any
`balance of the small entity fee that is applicable to that application will be due along with the
`appropriate surcharge set forth in § 1.16(e), or § 1.16().
`fii) The paymentof any small entity fee other than those set forth in paragraph (c)(3) of this section
`(whether in the exact fee amount or not) will not be treated as a written assertion of entitlement
`to smaff entity status and will not be sufficient to establish smail entity status in an application
`or a patent.”

`
`
`WARNING: 37 C.F.R. § 1.27(c)(4): “Assertion required in related, continuing, and reissue applications. Status
`as a small entity must be specifically established by an assertion in each related, continuing and
`reissue application in which status is appropriate and desired. Status as a smaif entity in one
`application or patent does notaffect the status of any other application or patent, regardless of
`the relationship of the applications or patents. The refiling of an application under § 1.53 as a
`continuation, divisional, or continuation-in-part application (including a continued prosecution
`application under § 1.53(d)), or the filing of a reissue application, requires a new assertion as to
`continued entitlement to small entity status for the continuing or reissue application.”
`“Smail entity status mustnot be established when the person or persons signing the .
`.
`. statement
`can unequivocally make the required self-certification.” M.P.E.P., § 509.03 (emphasis added).
