amendment before first action

Read a random definition: Near v. Minnesota (1931)

A quick definition of amendment before first action:

Amendment before first action: This refers to a change made to a patent application before any action has been taken on it. It is also known as a preliminary amendment.

Basically, if you want to make a change to your patent application, you can do so before the patent office takes any action on it. This is important because once the patent office starts reviewing your application, it becomes more difficult to make changes.

Think of it like editing a paper before your teacher grades it. You want to make sure everything is correct and the way you want it before it gets reviewed.

A more thorough explanation:

AMENDMENT BEFORE FIRST ACTION

An amendment made to a patent application before any action has been taken by the patent office. This is also known as a preliminary amendment.

  • John submitted his patent application and realized he made a mistake in the description. He quickly filed an amendment before any action was taken by the patent office.
  • Sarah's lawyer suggested she make a preliminary amendment to clarify some of the language in her patent application before it was reviewed by the patent office.

These examples illustrate how an amendment can be made to a patent application before any action is taken by the patent office. This allows the applicant to correct any mistakes or clarify any confusing language before the application is reviewed.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
