[Docket No.: PTO-C-2013-0042]
RIN 0651-AC91


Changes to Representation of Others Before the United States 
Patent and Trademark Office; Correction

AGENCY: United States Patent and Trademark Office, Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO or 
Office) is correcting an earlier final rule, ``Changes to the 
Representation of Others Before the United States Patent and Trademark 
Office,'' that appeared in the Federal Register on May 26, 2021 and 
which takes effect on June 25, 2021. This document corrects a minor 
error. No other changes are being made to the underlying final rule.

DATES: This rule is effective June 25, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: William R. Covey, Deputy General 
Counsel for Enrollment and Discipline and Director of the Office of 
Enrollment and Discipline, at 571-272-4097.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document corrects an error pertaining 
to revisions to definitions made in the final rule. Specifically, the 
Office intended to change the listed definition of ``Roster'' to 
``Roster or register.'' The Code of Federal Regulations editors 
informed the Office that the original Federal Register instruction to 
``revise'' the definition was incorrect. Rather, the correct 
instruction should be to ``remove and add'' the intended definition. 
This document corrects that instruction.
    In FR Doc. 2021-10528, appearing on page 28442 in the Federal 
Register of Wednesday, May 26, 2021, the following correction is made:


Sec.  11.1   [Corrected]

0
On page 28452, in the first column, in part 11, correct amendatory 
instruction 4 to read as follows:
0
4. Amend Sec.  11.1 by:
0
a. Revising the definitions of ``Conviction or convicted'' and 
``Practitioner;''
0
b. Removing the entry for ``Roster'' and adding, in alphabetical order, 
an entry for ``Roster or register;'' and
0
c. Revising the definitions for ``Serious crime'' and ``State.''
    The revisions and addition read as follows:

Andrew Hirshfeld,
Commissioner for Patents, Performing the Functions and Duties of the 
Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of 
the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
