`ON PETITION
`
`This is a decision on the PETITION UNDER 37 CFR 1.182 TO CORRECT THE NAME .
`
`OF THE ASSIGNEE ON THE TERMINAL DISCLAIMER” filed November 20, 2010,
`requesting correction to the terminal disclaimer filed on February 9, 2010.
`
`The petition is DISMISSED to the extent that the Terminal Disclaimer filed February 9,
`2010 will not be removed from the record.
`
`Any request for reconsideration must be filed within TWO (2) MONTHS. This 2-month
`period is governed by 37 CFR 1.181(f) and is not extendable under 37 CFR 1.136.
`
`Application No. 11/097,651 was filed on April 1, 2005 and issued as US. Patent No.
`7,765,107 on July 27,2010.
`‘
`
`Patentees state that a terminal disclaimer was originally filed on February 9, 2010.
`However, there was a clerical error in the originally filed Terminal Disclaimer with
`respect to the identified Assignee. Patentees request that the attached replacement
`Terminal Disclaimer be entered into the Official file in lieu of the Terminal Disclaimer
`
`filed on February 9, 2010, to correct the clerical error.
`
`The Terminal Disclaimer filed February 10, 2010 (February 9, 2010 certificate of mail
`date) disclaimed, “the terminal part of the statutory term of any patent granted on the
`above-identified patent application, which would extend beyond the expiration date of
`the full statutory term, as presently shortened by any terminal disclaimers, of any patent
`issuing from US Serial No. 11/097,651. The assignee hereby agrees that any patent to
`be granted on the captioned application shall be enforceable only for and during such
`period as such patent is commonly owned with any patent issuing from US Serial No.
`11/097,651. This agreement shall run with any patent granted on the above-identified
`application and shall be binding upon the assignee's successors and assigns”.
`
`The captioned application as well as US. Application Serial No. 10/979,665 are both
`divisional applications of US Application Serial No. 10/322,348. The assignment for

`
`Application No. 11/097,985
`

`
`US. Serial No. 10/322,348 was recorded on February 19, 2010 at Reel 023962,
`Frames 0725 - 0731. That assignment assigned the application underlying U.S. Serial
`No. 10/322,348, as well as, inter alia, all continuations and divisionals based upon that
`application. The Terminal Disclaimer filed February 10, 2010 (February 9, 2010
`certificate of mail date) is signed by Bradley A. Forrest on behalf of assignee Jazz
`Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
`
`The “replacement” Terminal Disclaimer however is signed by Monique M. Perdok
`Shonka, on behalf of assignee Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
`
`The two disclaimers, list Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as the assignee and are both
`signed by individuals empowered to act on behalf of Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
`however, the difference is that in the parent application, 10/322,348, the complete chain
`of assignments was not properly recorded at the time the February 10, 2010 (February
`9, 2010 certificate of mail date) Terminal Disclaimer was filed. Applicant has now taken
`the appropriate corrective action by filing assignments from Orphan Medical, Inc. to
`Orphan Medical, LLC; from Orphan Medical, LLC to JPI Commercial, LLC; and from JPI
`Commercial, LLC to Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
`
`The difference in the two disclaimers is the reference to the assignments. A review of
`Office records confirms that the assignments have all now been recorded.
`
`Nonetheless, the Terminal Disclaimer filed February 10, 2010 (February 9, 2010
`certificate of mail date) was accepted and recorded by the examiner.
`
`Moreover, assignment data printed on the patent is based solely on the information so
`supplied on the Issue Fee Transmittal Form (PTOL-85B). A review of the record
`indicates that the Issue Fee Transmittal Form (PTOL-SSB) submitted June 10, 2010
`identified the assignee as JPI Commercial, LLC and thus, the patent properly issued to
`asSignee JPI Commercial, LLC , with a Notice that:
`
`This patent is subject to a terminal disclaimer.
`
`Thus, there is no issue as to what was dedicated to the public. Patentees do not
`request that the Terminal Disclaimer be removed or nullified. There is no error in the
`patent requiring correction. As such, this petition does not necessitate consideration of
`whether issuance of a certificate of correction is warranted.
`
`Rather, patentees request, in effect, that the Terminal Disclaimer filed February 10,
`2010 (February 9, 2010 certificate of mail date) be replaced in the record with the
`Terminal Disclaimerfiled November 2-0, 2010.
`
`The Terminal Disclaimer filed February 10, 2010 (February 9, 2010 certificate of mail

`allowance of this application. Removal of the Terminal Disclaimer filed February 10,
`2010 (February 9,2010 certificate of mail date) from the application record is
`inappropriate.
`,
`
`Placement of the Terminal Disclaimer filed November 20, 2010 (along with the petition
`and petition decision) in the record is sufficient to complete the record. The Terminal
`Disclaimer filed November 20, 2010 is accepted and recorded. No further action will be
`undertaken.

`The petition fee of $400 has been charged to Deposit Account No. 19-0743, as
