new matter

new matter.

1. MATTER.

2. Patents. Additional information in an amended patent application that departs from the original disclosure. • Since the new matter was reduced to practice after the application was filed, it cannot carry the same filing date. Rather, it must be included in a continuation-in-part application. — Also termed disconformity. [Cases: Patents 109. C.J.S. Patents §§ 152–155.]
