Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 90 / Monday, May 11, 2015 / Notices 26915 

day ‘‘Quality Summit’’ with the public 

to discuss the outlined proposals, which 

was held on March 25 and 26, 2015, at 

the USPTO headquarters in Alexandria, 

Virginia. 

In view of the substantial public 

interest in this initiative, the number 

and complexity of the issues involved, 

and requests from the public for an 

extension of the time to submit 

comments, the USPTO is now extending 

the period for submission of public 

comments until May 20, 2015. 

Members of the public are invited to 

submit written comments that address 

the proposals outlined in the February 

5, 2015, Federal Register Notice or that 

provide input on other programs or 

initiatives not reflected in the proposals 

that the public believes may enhance 

patent quality. Based upon the 

stakeholder feedback received, the 

USPTO plans to refine the proposals as 

needed and to continue its engagement 

with the public about these proposals 

through a series of additional events. 

Through such continued engagement 

with the public, the USPTO can take the 

correct next steps in its continued 

efforts toward enhancing patent quality.
