Japan does allow multiple dependent claims. I don't know
if they are encouraged or discouraged.

Hi all,

I know that someone in this august group will know this...does Japan
allow multiple dependent claims?
And if so, are they generally encouraged (as in Europe), despised (as
in the US) or somewhere in between?

Thanks,
LeeAnn
