PETITION FOR REVIVAL OF AN APPLICATION FOR PATENT

ABANDONED FOR FAILURE TO NOTIFY THE OFFICE OF A FOREIGN

OR INTERNATIONAL FILING (37 CFR 1.137(f))

Page 2 of 2
3. STATEMENT: The entire delay in filing the required notice of a foreign or international filing from the due date for the required notice until
the filing of a grantable petition under 37 CFR 1.137(a) was unintentional. [NOTE: The United States Patent and Trademark Office may require
additional information if there is a question as to whether either the abandonment or the delay in filing a petition under 37 CFR 1.137(a) was
unintentional (MPEP 711.03(c), subsections (III)(C) and (D)).]
WARNING:
Petitioner/applicant is cautioned to avoid submitting personal information in documents filed in a patent application that may contribute to
identity theft. Personal information such as social security numbers, bank account numbers, or credit card numbers (other than a check or
credit card authorization form PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes) is never required by the USPTO to support a petition or an
application. If this type of personal information is included in documents submitted to the USPTO, petitioners/applicants should consider
redacting such personal information from the documents before submitting them to the USPTO. Petitioner/applicant is advised that the record
of a patent application is available to the public after publication of the application (unless a non-publication request in compliance with 37 CFR
1.213(a) is made in the application) or issuance of a patent. Furthermore, the record from an abandoned application may also be available to
the public if the application is referenced in a published application or an issued patent (see 37 CFR 1.14). Checks and credit card authorization
forms PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes are not retained in the application file and therefore are not publicly available.
