BILLING CODE 4000-01-P DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Patent and Trademark Office 37 CFR Part 11 [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: § 11.1 [Corrected] On page 28452, in the first column, in part 11, correct amendatory instruction 4 to read as follows: 4.

Amend § 11.1 by: a. Revising the definitions of “Conviction or convicted” and “Practitioner;” b. Removing the entry for “Roster” and adding, in alphabetical order, an entry for “Roster or register;” and 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.
