Answer: Indicia that a continuing reissue application is being filed are: A reissue oath/declaration, which is not merely a copy of the parent’s reissue oath/declaration. A specification and/or claims in proper double column reissue format. Amendments in proper format. A statement of assignee ownership and consent by assignee. A correct transmittal letter identifying the application as a reissue filing. An identification of the application as being “a reissue continuation of application number [the parent reissue application]” or “a continuation and reissue of application number [the parent reissue application]”… The post MPEP Q & A 106: Indicia That a Continuing Reissue Application is Being Filed appeared first on Patent Education Series.
