Apr 20, 2018 at 4:18 comment added Maca MPEP 608.01(N): "During prosecution, the order of claims may change and be in conflict with the requirement that dependent claims refer to a preceding claim. Accordingly, the numbering of dependent claims and the numbers of preceding claims referred to in dependent claims should be carefully checked when claims are renumbered upon allowance." While it is improper for dependent claims to be out of order initially, it can be unavoidable during prosecution.
