The Commission requests comment on
a broad range of topics including,

certain risk controls have been adopted
by industry, whether there is a need for
regulatory action on such risk controls
in order to provide more uniform risk
mitigation across Commission-regulated
derivatives markets, and the appropriate
stage in the lifecycle of an order at
which risk controls should be placed.
The Commission is reopening the
comment period for the Concept Release
beginning on January 21, 2014, and
ending on February 14, 2014. Parties
who previously submitted comments on
the Concept Release, but did so after the

SUMMARY:
AGENCY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:17 Jan 23, 2014
Jkt 232001
The United States Patent and
Trademark Office (Office) is proposing
PO 00000
Frm 00004
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
4105
changes to the rules of practice to
facilitate the examination of patent
applications and to provide greater
transparency concerning the ownership
of patent applications and patents. This
initiative is one of a number of
executive actions issued by the
Administration that are designed to
ensure the highest-quality patents,
enhance competition by providing the
public with more complete information
about the competitive environment in
which innovators operate, enhance
technology transfer and reduce the costs
of transactions for patent rights by
making patent ownership information
more readily and easily available,
reduce abusive patent litigation by
helping the public defend itself against
frivolous litigation, and level the
playing field for innovators. The Office
is proposing in this document to require
that the attributable owner, including
the ultimate parent entity, be identified
during the pendency of a patent
application and at specified times
during the life of a patent. The Office is
specifically proposing that the
attributable owner be identified on
filing of an application (or shortly
thereafter), when there is a change in
the attributable owner during the
pendency of an application, at the time
of issue fee and maintenance fee
payments, and when a patent is
involved in supplemental examination,
ex parte reexamination, or a trial
proceeding before the Patent Trial and
Appeal Board (PTAB). The Office is also
seeking comments on whether the
Office should enable patent applicants
and owners to voluntarily report
licensing offers and related information
to the Office, which the Office will then
make available to the public in an
accessible online format.
DATES: Comment deadline date: Written
comments must be received on or before
March 25, 2014.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent
by electronic mail message over the
Internet addressed to: AC90.comments@
