Restriction Requirement
Don't mean to slow this board down, but I've got a Q for the prosecution geeks out there:
When responding, nontraverse, to a restriction requirement, is there any benefit to withdrawing nonelected claims vs. cancelling nonelected claims? e.g., are there benefits for divisional filings, not creating potential estoppel issues, etc? Thanks! md(back, but without the color)jd |
bump.

Fellas. It's been 3 years & 2 days. I *really* need to get back to this examiner. I think she's starting to realize I'm stalling.

You inquired: "When responding, nontraverse, to a restriction requirement, is there any benefit to withdrawing nonelected claims vs. cancelling nonelected claims?"
I helpfully respond: yes. |

Re: Restriction Requirement
Is it a restriction between different inventions or between patentably distinct species?
