A rejection of claims is reviewable by the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences, whereas an objection and requirement to delete new matter is subject to supervisory review by petition under 37 CFR 1.181. If both the claims and specification contain new matter either directly or indirectly, and there has been both a rejection and objection by the examiner, the issue becomes appealable and should not be decided by petition.
大体看了一下
rejection是实质缺陷,可申诉
objection是程序或形式规定,不可上诉 具体可以看一下37 CFR 1.181,类似于行政复议 |
