The USPTO put together a set of tools to help inventors and attorneys properly draft and file an ex parte appeal brief with the PTAB by providing:

• A template with headers and boxes for all information that must be included in the brief;

• A step-by-step guide for how to draft each section of the brief; and

• References to the MPEP for easy access to procedure rules.
