A quick definition of amendment after final action:

An amendment after final action is a change made to a patent application after it has been rejected by an examiner. This change usually involves narrowing or eliminating some claims in response to the rejection. The amendment cannot add new claims, but can make changes in form. It is important to note that amendments after final action are not made as a matter of right and must be approved by the patent examiner.

A more thorough explanation:

An amendment after final action refers to a modification made to a patent application after it has been rejected by an examiner. The amendment is usually made to narrow or eliminate some claims in response to the rejection.

For example, if an examiner rejects a patent application because some of the claims are too broad, the applicant may submit an amendment after final action to narrow those claims and make them more specific.

It's important to note that an amendment after final action cannot add new claims to the application. It can only make changes in form and cannot raise new issues for the examiner.

Other types of amendments related to patent applications include:

Overall, amendments are a way for applicants to refine their patent applications and address any issues raised by the examiner. However, there are limitations on the types of amendments that can be made at different stages of the application process.
