`
`Patent
`Preliminary Amendment in Reissue Application of Patent No. 6,885,318
`
`No new matter is added by these amendments in this reissue application. All errors
`
`which are being corrected in the reissue application up to the time of filing of the
`
`oath/declaration arose without any deceptive intention on the part of the patentee.
`
`The continuing obligation under 37 CFR 1.17B(b), to timely apprise the Office of any
`
`prior or concurrent proceeding in which Patent No. 6,885,318 is or was involved is
`
`acknowledged. The patentee is not aware at this time of any prior or concurrent
`
`proceeding in which Patent No. 6,885,318 is or was involved.
`
`The patentee acknowledges the continuing obligation UDder 37 CFR 1.56, to timely
`
`appraise the Office of any information which is material to patentability of the claims under
`
`consideration in this reissue application. The patentee is not aware at this time of any
`
`additional material to patentability of the claims under consideration in this reissue
`
`application 1hat is not already before the Patent Office.
`
`A reissue oath/declaration is submitted under separate cover to this amendment.
`
`The reissue oath/declaration identifies at least one error which is relied upon to
`
`support 1he reissue application. Specifically, the reissue oath/declaration identifies the
`
`error which is relied upon to support the reissue application and states:
`
`The patentee believes the original patent to be wholly or partly inoperative
`or invalid by reason of the patentee claiming more than the patentee had the
`right to claim in the patent. Specifically, the error in the patent is caused by the
`omission of a narrower claim from the patent that renders the patent partfy
`inoperative by failing to protect the disclosed invention to the full extent allowed
`bylaw.
`The Patentee respectfully asserts that the error is corrected by an
`amendment that adds at least one dependent claim, for example claim 8, which
`protects the disclosed invention in accordance with the specification of the
`Patent. thus improving on the state of the art. Previously the patentee had
`neglected, without deceptive intent, to protect this disclosed invention in
`accordance with the specification of the Patent.

`
`

`
`Patent
`Preliminary Amendment in Reissue Application of Patent No. 6,885,318
`
`No new matter is added by this amendment in this reissue application. All
`errors in the patent ~ing corrected in the present reissue application up to the
`time of filing this oath/declaration, tha~ are not covered by a prior oath/declaration
`submitted in this application, arose without any deceptive intention on the part of
`the patentee.
`
`Accordingly, the reissue oath/declaration identifies the error which is relied upon to
`
`support the reissue application as ''the error in the patent is caused by the omission of a
`
`narrower claim from a patent that renders the patent partly inoperative by failing to protect
`
`the disclosed invention lo the full extent allowed by law." This at least one error is relied
`
`upon · to support the reissue application in that at least added dependent claim 8 protects
`
`the disclosed invention in accordance with the specification of the Patent, thus improving
`
`on the state of the art.
`
`Jt is respectfully submitted that the reissue oath/declaration is proper and an
`
`indication to that effect is respectfully requested.
