Summary

Application under section 13(3) was filed by Robert Bosch GmbH to remove Klaus Baumgartner and Daniel Dockner as joint inventors.

The comptroller also directed that an addendum slip be prepared removing Klaus Baumgartner and Daniel Dockner as joint inventors for the published patent application and granted patents for the invention.
