In the United States, an Office action is a document written by an examiner in a patent or trademark examination procedure and mailed to an applicant[1] for a patent or trademark. The expression is used in many jurisdictions.
Formally, the "O" is supposed to be capitalized, since it refers to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.[2]
