1649 Ex Parte Bazan et al 12174871 - (D) PER CURIAM 102 MERCK CHERNYSHEV, OLGA N

A nonprovisional application is entitled to the benefit of an earlier filed provisional application if, among other things, the later-claimed invention is described in the provisional application in a manner that satisfies the requirements of 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph. 35 U.S.C. § 1 19(e)(l) (2006). The enablement requirement of § 112,  l, in turn, incorporates the utility requirement of § 101. See In re Ziegler, 992 F.2d 1197, 1200—01 (Fed. Cir. 1993). The rejection is based on the Examiner's conclusion that the "provisional application does not disclose a specific and substantial practical utility for the now claimed antibodies" and therefore does not meet the requirements of 101 and 112,  l . (Ans. 6.) 

Ziegler, In re, 992 F.2d 1197, 26 USPQ2d 1600 (Fed. Cir. 1993) 2103 2107.01 2107.02 2163 2163.03
