forth interim guidelines to be used by
USPTO personnel in their review of
patent applications to determine

Examination of Patent Applications for
Patent Subject Matter Eligibility, 1300
Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 142 (Nov. 22, 2005)
(Patent Subject Matter Eligibility Interim
Guidelines). The USPTO published a
notice on December 20, 2005 requesting
public comment on the interim
guidelines. See Request for Comments
on Interim Guidelines for Examination
of Patent Applications for Patent
Subject Matter Eligibility, 70 FR 75451
(Dec. 20, 2005) (Request for Comments).
A case currently awaiting decision by
the U.S. Supreme Court, Laboratory

(LabCorp), may impact the question of
patent subject matter eligibility under

Request for Comments indicated that
the USPTO expected that a decision in
LabCorp would be rendered sometime
before the end of June 2006, and that
USPTO would publish a notice further
extending the period for public
comment on the USPTO’s Patent
Subject Matter Eligibility Interim
Guidelines if necessary to permit the
comments to take into account the
Court’s decision in LabCorp. See
Request for Comments on Interim
Guidelines for Examination of Patent
Applications for Patent Subject Matter
Eligibility, 70 FR at 75452. Therefore,
the USPTO is further extending the
period for public comment on the
USPTO’s Patent Subject Matter
Eligibility Interim Guidelines until July
31, 2006 to permit the comments to take
into account the Court’s decision in
LabCorp (still expected before the end of
June 2006).
