this application currently names joint inventors. In considering patentability of the claims under 35 U.S.C.103(a ), the examiner presumes that the subject matter of the various claims was commonly owned at the time any inventions covered therein were made absent any evidence to the contrary.Applicant is advised of the obligation under 37 CFR 1.56 to point out the inventor and invention dates of each claim that was not commonly owned at the time a later invention was made in order for the examiner to consider the applicability of 35 U.S.C.103(c ) and potential 35 U.S.C.102 (e ), (f ) or (g ) prior art under 35 U.S.C.103(a ). |
