If, on the other hand, it is doubtful whether that information is incorrectly defined, then a correction is ruled out (points [2] and [3] of the reasons).[3] The opinion G 3/89 of the EBA, supra, held furthermore that any correction under R 88 EPC 1973 (corresponding to R 139) is of a strict declaratory nature and thus has not to infringe the prohibition of extension of subject-matter under A 123(2) (see Headnote 2).

Whether or not a limiting feature is to be considered as added subject-matter within the meaning of A 123(2), can, of course, only be decided on the basis of the facts of each individual case (see G 1/93 [17]). [11] According to T 384/91 [5], an undisclosed added feature at least should not be considered as merely limiting the protection conferred by the granted patent without providing a technical contribution to the invention as claimed, if it interacts with the… [read post]

Thus, the question to be decided on this appeal is whether this refusal is an appropriate exercise of the discretion given to the ED under R 137(3). [3] Guidance on the principles to be applied can be derived from the Enlarged Board of Appeal decision G 7/93, as summarised in decision T 1064/04: (a) Until the issue of a decision to grant the patent, the ED has a discretion under Rule 137(3) EPC whether or not to allow the amendment of the application at a late stage (G… [read post]

Therefore, the possible unclarity originates from this amendment and the objection raised by the [opponent] as to the clarity of claim 1 with regard to component (g) is allowable. [1.3] It is established jurisprudence of the Boards of the Appeal of the EPO that, in order to insure legal certainty, a claim must clearly define the matter for which protection is sought (see T 728/98 [3.1] as well as T 337/95 [2.2-5]).Insofar as component (g) is concerned,… [read post]

As mentioned in G 1/07 [4.3.1], the question of whether or not a surgical step can be omitted has to be assessed under A 84 and depends on whether the claimed invention is fully and completely defined by the features of the claim without that step, which is not the case here as explained above.

The board also comes to the conclusion that the subject-matter of claim 1 cannot claim priority from the US application No. 835,799, but by a line of reasoning which differs from that of the OD. [7] A 87(1), inter alia, stipulates that the right to priority for the purpose of filing a European patent application can only be enjoyed insofar as the earlier application and the later European application disclose the “same invention”.
