Federal Circuit Upholds USPTO's Authority to Issue Claims and Continuations
Final Rules and Concludes that Certain Final Rules Are Consistent with the
Patent Act
USPTO Is Not Implementing Final Rules At This Time
UPDATE (March 23, 2009)
On March 20, 2009, the Federal Circuit issued a decision addressing (i)
whether the Claims and Continuation Final Rules fall within the scope of the
USPTO’s rulemaking authority and (ii) whether the Final Rules are contrary
to the Patent Act. The Court concluded that the Final Rules were all within
the agency’s rulemaking authority. The Court also concluded that Final Rule
114 (requests for continued examination), Final Rule 75 (claims), and Final
Rule 265 (examination support documents) are consistent with the Patent Act,
but that Final Rule 78 (continuations) violates the Patent Act. The Court
remanded several issues to the district court. The litigation remains
pending. The Final Rules will not be implemented at this time.
