Where requests (main and/or auxiliary) are filed in examination proceedings and the applicant does not identify the amendments and/or does not indicate the basis for them in the application as filed, a communication according to Rule 137(4) may also be sent in respect of one or more of the newly filed main and/or auxiliary requests.

For requests filed in preparation for oral proceedings, late filed requests or requests filed during oral proceedings, see H‑III, 2.1.3.
