Since the start of the Post-Prosecution Pilot (P3) Program in July 2016, WHIPgroup has participated in dozens of P3 conferences. WHIPgroup has successfully used P3 to advance prosecution of applications towards allowance without resorting to appeals or requests for continued examination (RCE).

WHIPgroup will continue to evaluate P3 and monitor for any extensions of the program.
