Abstract
The weak gravitational field expansion method to account for the gravitatio nally induced neutrino oscillation effect is critically examined, then it i s shown that the splitting of the neutrino phase into a "kinematic" and a " gravitational" phase is not always possible because the relativistic factor modifies the particle interference phase splitting condition in a gravitat ional field.
