Court rescinded a JPO’s revocation decision, stating that the patent invention could have been easily conceived of by a person skilled in the art based on Cited Invention 1, since there was little motivation to improve Cited Invention 1 to solve the problem of the patent invention because the technical field and the problem are not necessarily the same for the patent invention and Cited Invention 1 and according to the disclosure of Citation 1 (Exhibit Ko 7), there is little reason for a person skilled in the art to select the two kinds of monomers, a monomer containing epoxy groups and a monomer containing hydroxy groups, from among multiple combinations disclosed in Citation 1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","updates_tag":[3],"class_list":["post-1012","updates","type-updates","status-publish","hentry","updates_tag-court-judgment"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/ksilawpat.jp\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/updates\/1012","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/ksilawpat.jp\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/updates"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/ksilawpat.jp\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/updates"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/ksilawpat.jp\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1012"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"updates_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ksilawpat.jp\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/updates_tag?post=1012"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
