This change fails to take into consideration the fact that requiring the approval of prior counsel affects the ability to meet deadlines if the change in counsel is happening close in time to a deadline (not that uncommon). And, just in general, if the reason for the change in representation is because the relationship with the former attorney has become strained in some way, or if the former attorney cannot grant approval for some reason, an applicant should not be blocked from moving their application forward just because the prior attorney does not grant approval for whatever reason. </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div>Under the system we've all been using up until now, the prior attorney receives notice of the change once it goes through, which gives opportunity to fix unauthorized changes.

I fear this problematic change by the USPTO is the cause for a sticky situation we find ourselves in for a client. A CAR was filed and we are waiting to have TSDR and the related systems update (since Monday). But a Petition to the Director is needed soon,
and cannot be filed because it contains the previous attorney information and it cannot be updated. An odd situation. </div>

<p><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11pt">Has anyone else been required to seek authorization by the applicant in order to file a new POA? When there\u2019s another appointed firm, I\u2019ve always been able to upload a signed POA and
make the change without further authorization. Yesterday, however, I was required to email the applicant for authorization even though they\u2019d already signed a POA, which I uploaded as always.
