This book was released on 2006 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The case at issue involves patents covering "gas pedal" technology for cars and light trucks. KSR International, Inc. was accused of patent infringement by a firm called Teleflex. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed an earlier court decision that had found patents held by Teleflex were "obvious" and therefore invalid. In challenging the finding, KSR argued that the Federal Circuit has been improperly interpreting patent law for years when it comes to deciding whether an invention is "obvious."

Book Synopsis Obvious Confusion Over Properties Discovered After a Patent Application by : Douglas L. Rogers
Download or read book Obvious Confusion Over Properties Discovered After a Patent Application written by Douglas L. Rogers and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Circuit recently has issued inconsistent rulings in three pharmaceutical cases on whether unexpected properties of a compound becoming known after the patent application can support a conclusion of non-obviousness. The Supreme Court has the opportunity to provide additional guidance on the crucial issue of obviousness of pharmaceutical compounds and to require consistency with the timing requirement for determining obviousness in 35 U.S.C. §103 and KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc., 550 U.S. 398, 420 (2007) This article contributes to the obviousness literature by challenging the incorrect dogma that unexpected properties - even if they were not known until after the patent application - show that an invention is non-obvious. First, the article shows the view that the particular results of a claimed invention must have been predicted is inconsistent with the Supreme Court's 2007 KSR decision that an invention can be obvious if the pathway to that result was obvious to try, even if the particular result was not predicted. Second, the article shows that unexpected properties becoming known after the patent application are not secondary considerations permitted to be considered by the Supreme Court's 1966 decision in Graham v. Deere. Third, this article shows that the Federal Circuit's periodic reference to rebuttal of a prima facie case of obviousness in ex parte patent applications is an outmoded doctrine originating before the Patent Act of 1952 that has no relevance in determining substantive obviousness today in patent infringement litigation. The article concludes that the Supreme Court should confirm the position of Judge Dyk that in determining obviousness courts may not consider knowledge of properties arising after the patent application.
Book Synopsis Predictability and Nonobviousness in Patent Law After KSR. by : Christopher Anthony Cotropia
Download or read book Predictability and Nonobviousness in Patent Law After KSR. written by Christopher Anthony Cotropia and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In KSR International Co. v. Teleflex, Inc., the Supreme Court addressed the doctrine of nonobviousness, the ultimate question of patentability, for the first time in thirty years. In addition to mandating a flexible approach to deciding nonobviousness, the KSR opinion also introduced two predictability standards for determining nonobviousness. The Court described predictability of use (“Type I predictability”) -- whether the inventor used the prior art in a predictable manner to create the invention -- and predictability of the result (“Type II predictability”) -- whether the invention produced a predictable result -- both as a means for proving obviousness. While Type I predictability is easily explained as part of the flexible approach endorsed by KSR, Type II predictability represents a possible radical shift in the nonobviousness doctrine. Instead of focusing on whether reasons already existed to create the invention, like Type I predictability does, a Type II predictability analysis takes the invention's creation as a given and looks instead at the invention's operation. Type II predictability moves the analysis away from the gap between the prior art and the invention to the invention only. The Patent Office, the Federal Circuit, and lower courts are using Type II predictability fairly extensively. The problem with this usage is that Type II predictability runs counter to statutory language, introduces hindsight bias, discriminates against certain technologies, and conflicts with basic patent theory. Accordingly, the Patent Office and courts need to reconsider how they use Type II predictability and interpret this part of KSR.
Book Synopsis Obviousness in Patent Law and the Motivation to Combine by : Timothy R. Holbrook
Download or read book Obviousness in Patent Law and the Motivation to Combine written by Timothy R. Holbrook and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In KSR International v. Teleflex, Inc., the U.S. Supreme Court is currently considering the appropriate standard for determining whether the invention claimed in a patent is obvious. Particularly, the Court is evaluating the Federal Circuit's requirement for a teaching, suggetion, or motivation to combine the prior art. This requirement stems from the Federal Circuit's attempts to create formalistic, bright-line rules in patent law. At oral argument, the Supreme Court was quite critical of this standard. The Court is faced, however, with answering the question of what is the appropriate standard. A review of recent Supreme Court precedent provides an answer - the use of rebuttable presumptions. In other areas where the Supreme Court has expressed concern with balancing certainty with fairness, the Court has eschewed the Federal Circuit's formalism and has offered presumptions instead. This trend can be seen in both Warner-Jenkinson and Festo. In the obviousness context, a presumption-based approach would serve to enhance certainty in the area of obviousness. The presence of a motivation to combine, along with the presence of each claim limitation in the prior art, would create a presumption of obviousness. This presumption could be rebutted by a number of factors, including relevant secondary considerations that suggest the patent is non-obvious. Similarly, if there is a teaching away in the prior art, in other words some reason not to make the combination, then there should be presumption that the claimed invention is not obvious. This presumption could also be rebutted by the use of secondary considerations. In the absence of either a motivation to combine or a teaching away, no presumption arises and the courts would resort to the familiar Graham framework.
