CTNF 18/975,407 CTNF 80767 Notice of Pre-AIA or AIA Status 07-03-aia AIA 15-10-aia The present application, filed on or after March 16, 2013, is being examined under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA. Double Patenting 08-33 AIA The nonstatutory double patenting rejection is based on a judicially created doctrine grounded in public policy (a policy reflected in the statute) so as to prevent the unjustified or improper timewise extension of the “right to exclude” granted by a patent and to prevent possible harassment by multiple assignees. A nonstatutory double patenting rejection is appropriate where the conflicting claims are not identical, but at least one examined application claim is not patentably distinct from the reference claim(s) because the examined application claim is either anticipated by, or would have been obvious over, the reference claim(s). See, e.g., In re Berg , 140 F.3d 1428, 46 USPQ2d 1226 (Fed. Cir. 1998); In re Goodman , 11 F.3d 1046, 29 USPQ2d 2010 (Fed. Cir. 1993); In re Longi , 759 F.2d 887, 225 USPQ 645 (Fed. Cir. 1985); In re Van Ornum , 686 F.2d 937, 214 USPQ 761 (CCPA 1982); In re Vogel , 422 F.2d 438, 164 USPQ 619 (CCPA 1970); In re Thorington , 418 F.2d 528, 163 USPQ 644 (CCPA 1969). A timely filed terminal disclaimer in compliance with 37 CFR 1.321(c) or 1.321(d) may be used to overcome an actual or provisional rejection based on nonstatutory double patenting provided the reference application or patent either is shown to be commonly owned with the examined application, or claims an invention made as a result of activities undertaken within the scope of a joint research agreement. See MPEP § 717.02 for applications subject to examination under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA as explained in MPEP § 2159. See MPEP § 2146 et seq. for applications not subject to examination under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA. A terminal disclaimer must be signed in compliance with 37 CFR 1.321(b). The filing of a terminal disclaimer by itself is not a complete reply to a nonstatutory double patenting (NSDP) rejection. A complete reply requires that the terminal disclaimer be accompanied by a reply requesting reconsideration of the prior Office action. Even where the NSDP rejection is provisional the reply must be complete. See MPEP § 804, subsection I.B.1. For a reply to a non-final Office action, see 37 CFR 1.111(a). For a reply to final Office action, see 37 CFR 1.113(c). A request for reconsideration while not provided for in 37 CFR 1.113(c) may be filed after final for consideration. See MPEP §§ 706.07(e) and 714.13. The USPTO Internet website contains terminal disclaimer forms which may be used. Please visit www.uspto.gov/patent/patents-forms.

The information regarding each individual user's electronic calendar is maintained as user calendar data in a user calendar database 45. More specifically, user calendar database 45 generally includes one or more data structures that hold data indicating a user/invitee and zero or more appointments for that user, including data indicating a start date and time and stop date and time for the appointment.) joining the same teleconference meeting once (Col 10 lines 16-30; IG. 4 illustrates a flowchart that describes method steps for automatically recording a conference call in one embodiment. At step 415, the electronic calendar identifies a date and a beginning time of an on-line electronic meeting. At step 420, the electronic calendar automatically calls in or connects to a corresponding on-line electronic meeting system) and providing a same set of meeting data to each user device. (Col 11 line 48 – Col 12 line 33; If all invitees are not attending Meeting 1 and 2, the method prompts the missing invitees to request a transcript of the meeting in real time at step 650. If an invitee does not request a transcription at step 650, then no further action is taken as shown by step 654. If an invitee does request a transcript of a meeting in real time, the method requests permission to publish the transcript of the meeting of the other attendees or a meeting coordinator at step 656.) The combined teachings of Herrin / Mahmoud fail to disclose determining whether there are duplicate entries in the relational database for a same teleconference meeting; and based on the determination, joining the same teleconference meeting once and providing a same set of meeting data to each user account associated with the duplicate entries. Kirsch discloses determining whether there are duplicate entries in the relational database for a same teleconference meeting; (Col 11 lines 6-60; e mobile device 120 then applies 504 conversion rules to the calendar information received in each of the native formats to convert all the calendar data to a common format (e.g., an ASCII XML format) such that calendar data from different calendar systems can be compared and aggregated.
