02:56 schestowitz; FragenderThursday, 6 January 2022 at 20:00:00 GMT

02:56 schestowitz; In German patent law there is 34 Abs. 7:

02:56 schestowitz; "Auf Verlangen des Deutschen Patent- und Markenamts hat der Anmelder den Stand der Technik nach seinem besten Wissen vollstndig und wahrheitsgem anzugeben und in die Beschreibung (Absatz 3) aufzunehmen."

02:56 schestowitz; Rough translation: On request of the DPMA the applicant has to state the state of the art to his best knowledge completely and truthfully and include it in the description.

02:56 schestowitz; There is a corresponding paragraph in the PatV ( 10 Abs. 2 lit. 2) requiring this (for the initial description).

02:56 schestowitz; Many applicants don't name any state of the art (if the examiner finds state of the art by that very applicant often 124 - duty to truthfulness - is mentioned...).

02:56 schestowitz; Examiners usually require the state of the art found during examination to be added to the description. Using 34 Abs. 7, a refusal to do so will lead to a rejection of the application. Often, this is a nice shortcut for examiners and also the BPatG, when an applicant gives up on the application but a written decision is necessary, as this is usually the shortest possible decision.

02:56 schestowitz; Patent RobotFriday, 7 January 2022 at 08:52:00 GMT

02:56 schestowitz; Ok, you have convinced me: it is now time to cancel or at least amend Rule 42(1)(b) EPC and the corresponding German rule so that applicants do not have to USELESSLY amend the description.

02:56 schestowitz; FragenderFriday, 7 January 2022 at 10:46:00 GMT

02:56 schestowitz; @Patent Robot

02:56 schestowitz; I see this differently. In German patent proceedings, the claims are construed using the patent publication. The prosecution file could be used only in exceptional cases. So while the public may be informed about the state of the art, the court would not necessarily consider this.

02:56 schestowitz; And, actually, putting the state of the art into the description can be helpful to the applicant, as the BGH states the claims should (usually) be construed to not cover the state of the art, from which the applicant tries to differ. So, without mentioning the state of the art, the claims might be construed wider and the state of the art then lead to invalidity of their matter. As long as the German courts deal with validity-proceedings for EP-

02:56 schestowitz; patents, I think it would be advisable to mention the state of the art in the description.

02:56 schestowitz; Following from this, I think the description of the state of the art could in extreme cases lead to "added matter". To be honest, unless this is done on purpose, I can not imagine a real world case for this happening.

02:56 schestowitz; So we should uselessly (and dangerously) amend a European application to please a national court?

02:56 schestowitz; FragenderMonday, 10 January 2022 at 10:03:00 GMT

02:56 schestowitz; @Patent Robot

02:57 schestowitz; As long as the national courts decide on validity, it is probably helpful to follow the decisions in the designated states. Unless of course it is a patent for "the stack", which will not be used.

02:57 schestowitz; Patent RobotMonday, 10 January 2022 at 11:18:00 GMT

02:57 schestowitz; @Fragender

02:57 schestowitz; The state of the art is already cited in any B-publication, so there is no need to amend the application for the German courts, unless you want also discuss the cited prior art in the application by ADDING arguments in this respect.

02:57 schestowitz; AnonymousMonday, 10 January 2022 at 11:48:00 GMT

02:57 schestowitz; And following on from your logic, there is need to follow any laws/directions of courts.

02:57 schestowitz; Following on further from your logic, there is no need to amend claims either given the cited art is known.

02:57 schestowitz; Even further, why file patents at all, the state of the art is known. Just keep a list of your internal inventions and assert them later.

02:57 schestowitz; These arguments fall into the category of mistaking the rule of law for things I do not like.

02:57 schestowitz; It seems to this reader that the best way to acknowledge prior art is for the examiner to cite it such that it appears on the front page of the B-spec, the agent then being free to deal with other matters instead of having to take a case to court to avoid complete revocation over something so minor.

02:57 schestowitz; All this talk about the online EPO file as the basis of claim construction strikes me as a distraction. The UK Supreme Court, faced with a claim to construe, asks itself what the skilled reader would conclude from the B publication as answer to the question "What was the writer of the claim using the words of the claim to mean". To perform that task, the court takes the B publication as a single coherent document. Accordingly, it strikes me that

02:57 schestowitz; it is not just the EPO that wants to see in the B publication conformity, and the invention set in the context of the prior art, but also the court. It's in the public interest too. A patent is a restraint on free trade. It should be granted only when Applicant presents a case persuasive enough to cancel free trade. Applicant protects an invention in words of their own choosing so they'd better be positively persuasive ones. Applicant lives or

02:57 schestowitz; dies, not by the sword, but by words of their own choosing. Long may it continue to be so.

02:57 schestowitz; There is no need to amend the description to convince an examiner to grant a patent. A letter and claim amendments are usually sufficient. Introducing the discussion on novelty and inventive step in the description is useless and moreover opens a door to art. 84, 123(2) and (3) EPC issues, considering how strict the EPO is on these provisions.

02:57 schestowitz; IMHO the description should never be amended, unless there are evident mistakes.

02:57 schestowitz; AnonymousFriday, 7 January 2022 at 10:35:00 GMT

02:57 schestowitz; Your comments focus on the way things should be IYHO, not how they are. Some of us have to live in the the real world where the description and Article 84 EPC just cannot be ignored.

02:57 schestowitz; Article 84 EPC needs amended or deleted to achieve your goal. What's stopping you moving this forward yourself? It is you that has the problem with it after all. Perhaps draft and file a test application that will get refused under Article 84 for not amending description, take it to BoA, and request a referral to EB and then explain why Article 84 has been leading us down the garden path for nearly 50 years.

02:57 schestowitz; Patent RobotFriday, 7 January 2022 at 14:06:00 GMT

02:57 schestowitz; As I wrote in the other thread, there is nothing in the EPC that requires the description to be supported by the claims (art. 84 requires the OPPOSITE), therefore the description should not be adapted to the claims and in particular there is no need at all to delete subject-matter not covered by the claims. Such a deletion may even raise issues of art. 123(2) and (3) EPC.

02:57 schestowitz; AnonymousFriday, 7 January 2022 at 15:05:00 GMT

02:57 schestowitz; You clearly have an understanding of the EPC at odds with accepted jurisprudence that the description should correspond to the claims.

02:57 schestowitz; You interpret article 84 literally and ignore all BoA decisions who have interpreted it differently (the recent decision doesnt even address the contradictory decisions, and has some seriously questionable reasoning) Even your literal interpretation has problems. For the description to support the claims, either the description or the claims can be amended for this to occur. Article 84 EPC is silent on how this can occur. So no, Article 84

02:57 schestowitz; EPC does not require the opposite as you put it.

02:57 schestowitz; Patent RobotSunday, 9 January 2022 at 12:13:00 GMT

02:57 schestowitz; I do not ignore the interpretation of Art. 84 EPC given by some BoA: I think that it is wrong and I hope that this issue will be solved by the EBoA.

02:57 schestowitz; For some decades, the EDs never asked to delete unclaimed subject-matter from the description, so why should we do it now?

02:57 schestowitz; It is sufficient to copy the claims in the descrition to satisfy Art. 84 EPC.

02:57 schestowitz; MaxDreiSunday, 9 January 2022 at 14:02:00 GMT

02:57 schestowitz; With astonishment I read from Patent Robot its dismissive view of Article 84, EPC, that to satisfy it all that is needed is to "copy the claims" into the description. So, form is good enough for Article 84, and substance counts for nothing. Not only those who drafted Art 84 would turn in their graves if that became the established view.

02:58 schestowitz; For one like me, who qualified for the EPO's Register of representatives through a grandfather clause, one of the greatest pleasures of my long career has been the emergence of the EPC and its Implementing Regulations, and the EPO's Estavblished Case Law. Other than in every other jurisdiction (where a Supreme Court makes the law) the law of the EPC is a triumph of substance over lawyerly "form". I never copy the allowed claimsd into the

02:58 schestowitz; description, believing to this day that it makes no difference to the validity of the patent which the EPO is going to issue to my client.

02:58 schestowitz; Or with his newest remark is Patent Robot just making mischief, trolling this thread, being provocative just for the fun of it?

02:58 schestowitz; That said, there is of course an ongoing problem with over-zealous Examiners. What makes them do it? Trying to ingratiate themselves with the EPO's Quality Managers, mistakenly supposing that it will further their career.

02:58 schestowitz; Patent RobotMonday, 10 January 2022 at 08:20:00 GMT

02:58 schestowitz; @MaxDrei

02:58 schestowitz; I was just replying to the curious theory of Anonymous: "For the description to support the claims, either the description or the claims can be amended for this to occur."

02:58 schestowitz; If there is no support in the description, you should not amend the claims (terrible idea!) for this purpose only, since you can just copy the claims into the description:

02:58 schestowitz; GL F-IV, 6.6: Where certain subject-matter is clearly disclosed in a claim of the application as filed, but is not mentioned anywhere in the description, it is permissible to amend the description so that it includes this subject-matter. Where the claim is dependent, it may suffice if it is mentioned in the description that the claim sets out a particular embodiment of the invention (see F-II, 4.5).

02:58 schestowitz; AnonymousMonday, 10 January 2022 at 09:45:00 GMT

02:58 schestowitz; It's only a terrible idea if you want to live in a world where Article 84 EPC does not exist. Your solution would also overcome a classic lack of support of objection - no need to narrow claims to essential features, just copy the broad unsupported claims into the description. Why stop there, we could overcome added-matter objections in the same way. Also if claim 1 as filed requires several features, but the description describes these features

02:58 schestowitz; all as optional and as the invention, that is a contradiction that needs addressed. Copying the claims back does not help since you still have the rest of the description saying something else.

02:58 schestowitz; Lack of essential features, to an extent, is also an objection under Article 83/56. How would your solution address these issues?

02:58 schestowitz; You have omitted the title of the GLs you cite - "Support for dependent claims". I wonder why you did this? Is it because it doesn't help you ignore Article 84 for claim 1?

02:58 schestowitz; This sounds like wanting to have it both way - cite a section of the GLs that (doesn't) supports your view and ignore the current GLs (albeit questionable) that requires substantial description amendments. For the record, I don't agree with the current GLs either but the second part of Articles 84 EPC has to count for something. Not amending the description is as much a solution as the EPO's current GLs, which is to say it is not a solution at

02:58 schestowitz; all.

02:58 schestowitz; Again, the EPO rules are well established and understood. Applicants know this and still file applications where everything is optional, even when it is clear the invention cannot operate otherwise. Some combinations are mutually exclusive. Also claim 1 can be hopelessly broad compared to the description. Then blame the strict EPO's added-matter rules when trying to limit claim 1 to something that is actually supported. Never the drafter's fault

02:58 schestowitz; for being too greedy, eh? Is improved (for the record not perfect) drafting not a solution?

02:58 schestowitz; I do wonder if it's forgotten that the patent system is also supposed to benefit the public and actually disclose an invention, not something so obfuscated that it hinders the public fining workarounds or improvements.

02:58 schestowitz; Serious question, patent robot, are you arguing in good faith?

02:58 schestowitz; Reading this thread makes me wonder what role do practitioners have to play in this?

02:58 schestowitz; Ultimately, this line of attack was advanced by a practitioner. Some might say the rules are there to be exploited. That may be true but the choice to do so is entirely yours however.

02:58 schestowitz; Proof of the puddingFriday, 7 January 2022 at 12:08:00 GMT

02:58 schestowitz; It is important to stand back and view this case in context. That is, much like T 1989/18, it is just one decision that may or may not be followed by other Boards of Appeal.

02:58 schestowitz; This means that, unless and until the view of the Board in T 0471/20 is established as "settled" case law, it would make sense for applicants to (continue to) take care not to add any text to even the "Background" section of the description that could arguably be viewed as introducing a subjective interpretation of the disclosures of a prior art document.

02:58 schestowitz; It also means that, despite the ruling in T 1989/18 (and despite how convincing one might find the reasoning of that decision), there is as yet no clear reason for the EPO to abandon its long-established practice of requiring the description to be brought into line with the claims as allowed.

02:58 schestowitz; Lastly, it also means that, despite the issuance of Board of Appeal decisions that demanded a "strict" approach to adaptation of the description, the EPO was under no obligation whatsoever to update its Guidelines for Examination to effectively demand adherence to such a strict approach. The decisions in T 1989/18 and T 0471/20 illustrate perfectly why taking such a hard-line stance was not only legally questionable but also extremely "applicant-

02:58 schestowitz; unfriendly".

02:58 schestowitz; In this regard, it is noteworthy that the EPO did not consult with its users before introducing changes to the Guidelines that have been strongly opposed by the patent profession. One has to question why this happened, especially now that the EPO appears to be prepared to backtrack at the earliest possible opportunity. Based upon the evidence, my conclusion is that the EPO now rules by diktat, unless it is forced to do otherwise. Other evidence

02:58 schestowitz; supporting this includes so-called "consultations" that the EPO has recently conducted (such as that on Art 15a RPBA) ... where it seems that the conclusion is predetermined, and where those expressing different or contradictory views are simply ignored.

02:58 schestowitz; On the general topic of consistency between the description and the claims, an important decision is T 1642/17, which appears to reflect settled case law since it is cited in the 2020 issue of the case law of the BOAs (II.A.6.3.) published in the OJ in 2021. Quote from Reason 3 :

02:58 schestowitz; However it is established case law that in cases where the claims and the terms used in them are clear when read on their own, for instance because they have a well established meaning in the art, the unambiguous claim wording must be interpreted as it would be understood by the person skilled in the art without the help of the description. (see decisions T 2221/10 and T 197/10, as well as Case Law of the Boards of Appeal of the European

02:58 schestowitz; Patent Office, 9th edition 2019, II.A 6.3.1). As set out in the latter decision, "in the event of a discrepancy between the claims and the description, the unambiguous claim wording must be interpreted as it would be understood by the person skilled in the art without the help of the description".

02:58 schestowitz; This implies that there should be no requirement to delete from the description an embodiment not covered by the claims, assuming the wording of the claims is clear.

02:58 schestowitz; I recently found a case in which the applicant had deleted a phrase in a claim to overcome an Art 84 objection, only for the ED to withdraw the objection and reinstate the deleted phrase of its own motion as part of the 71(3) communication, citing 123(2) concern.

13:18 schestowitz-TR; by the way the shellscript has no way of showing if it has disconnected

13:18 schestowitz-TR; as mentioned it was just a proof-of-concept test

13:18 schestowitz-TR; gemini-git-update.sh is a gemini-related script

13:18 Techrights-sec; by the way the shellscript has no way of showing if it has disconnected

13:18 Techrights-sec; as mentioned it was just a proof-of-concept test

13:18 Techrights-sec; gemini-git-update.sh is a gemini-related script

13:20 schestowitz-TR; there are also static references

13:20 schestowitz-TR; I think of those are absemt, no big deal

13:20 schestowitz-TR; it is in git

13:20 schestowitz-TR; but not ppublicly visible

13:20 schestowitz-TR; which is maybe OK given that you consider this early for public consumption

13:21 Techrights-sec; Git has been public via Gemini for a while now

13:51 Techrights-sec; there are some tmux oriented libraries for python but the APIs they use only

20:47 schestowitz; yes, part 2 was a bit long, a split into two would likely help. I'll wait for your go-ahead.

23:11 schestowitz; GAFAM is shite

23:12 schestowitz; it's getting access to too much data

23:12 schestowitz; "

23:12 schestowitz; It looks like there's an option of letting the devs getting the files, as shown in the screenshot, but even though the URL would be secret and expire hours later it might be wiser to also encrypt/password-protect this file first.

23:12 schestowitz; Any thoughts?

23:12 schestowitz; "

23:12 schestowitz; -me

23:12 schestowitz; colleagues don't even encrypt anything on the clown

23:13 schestowitz; curl or wget running from the datacentre can retrieve the said file quickly.
