Unsearched subject matter - examination proceedings - Orientierungssatz
- "Notorious" knowledge, for which no search need be performed before an objection of lack of inventive step is raised, is understood,
firstly, as being so well known that its existence at the date of priority cannot be reasonably disputed
; and, secondly, as relating to generic features, that is, to features which are defined in such a way that technical details are not significant (Reasons 4.1, 4.2 and 7.3).
Order
For these reasons it is decided that:
1. The decision under appeal is set aside.
2. The case is remitted to the department of first instance for further prosecution, which should include an additional search.
3. The appeal fee is to be reimbursed.
