¶ 13.06    Extension of Time by Examiner’s Amendment

An extension of time under 37 CFR 1.136(a)  is required to place this application in condition for allowance. During a telephone conversation conducted on [1], [2] requested an extension of time for [3] MONTH(S) and authorized the Director to charge Deposit Account No. [4] the required fee of $ [5] for this extension.

Examiner Note:

1. See MPEP § 706.07(f), item J which explains when an extension of time is needed in order to make amendments to place the application in condition for allowance. In no case can any extension carry the date for reply to an Office action beyond the maximum period of SIX MONTHS set by statute (35 U.S.C. 133 ).

2. When an examiner’s amendment is also authorized, use form paragraph 13.02.02 instead.
