Thus, when filing a 37 CFR 3.73 statement to establish ownership, an applicant or patent owner must also submit the relied-upon assignment document(s) to the Office for recordation, unless such a submission has already been previously made. If the 37 CFR 3.73 statement is not accompanied by a statement affirming that the documentary evidence was, or concurrently is being, submitted for recordation pursuant to 37 CFR 3.11, then the 37 CFR 3.73 statement will not be accepted, and the assignee(s) will not have established the right to take action in the patent application or the patent for which the 37 CFR 3.73 statement was submitted. This could result, for example, in an incomplete response, where a party stated to be the “assignee” signs a consent to the reissue to obviate a requirement for submission of assignee consent made in an Office action.","provenance":{"source_file":"s1410.html","source_anchor":"d0e135931","source_sha256":"75e2c2ae9eae3795d0ada1b2b64e64adb35b5c9658634f04504a470224d07032"},"node_type":"prose_block","kind":"narrative","host_section_id":"se_vrw2olcx"},{"id":"st_wfk3zxod","corpus_id":"mpep-e9r01-2024-html","opaque_url":"https://mpep.io/n/st_wfk3zxod","effective_range":{"start_revision":"R-01.2024","end_revision":null},"rendered_text_html":"","rendered_text_plain":"","provenance":{"source_file":"s1410.html","source_anchor":null,"source_sha256":"75e2c2ae9eae3795d0ada1b2b64e64adb35b5c9658634f04504a470224d07032"},"node_type":"statute","authority":"us_cfr","authority_title_num":"37","authority_section_num":"3.11","subsection_path":[],"canonical_citation":"37 CFR 3.11"},{"id":"pb_e3lkszvz","corpus_id":"mpep-e9r01-2024-html","opaque_url":"https://mpep.io/n/pb_e3lkszvz","effective_range":{"start_revision":"R-01.2024","end_revision":null},"rendered_text_html":"Upon initial receipt of a reissue application, the examiner should inspect the application to determine whether the submission under 37 CFR 1.172 and 37 CFR 3.73 establishing the ownership of the assignee is present and sufficient.
