Will USPTO use Section 112 more often in rejections of software patents claims?
,----[ Quote ]
| USPTO Director David Kappos recently
| commented on the March 22, 2010 Federal
| Circuit en banc decision Ariad
| Pharmaceuticals v. Eli Lilly and concluded
| that the written description requirement
| remains alive and well and is an essential
| âbackstopâ against overclaiming. In the
| case, the Federal Circuit held that
| Section 112 of the Patent Act has a
| written description requirement that is
| separate and apart from the enablement
| requirement.
