Federal Circuit Finds Prior Art Printed Publications Presumptively Enabling | Practical Law
In In Re Antor Media Corporation, the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences' (BPAI) decision rejecting Antor Media Corporation's patent as anticipated and obvious over four references. Three of the four references were print publications. The Federal Circuit notably held that a prior art printed publication cited by an examiner is presumptively enabling.
