The JPO has conventionally collected and publicized the major judicial precedents in the field of "business method-related inventions," and this dissemination of information has enhanced an organization's ability to forecast the results of examinations, appeals and trials. Since we have recently compiled the major judicial precedents regarding "biological inventions," we will publicize these precedents together.
We have collected those judicial precedents which we consider to be useful in forecasting the results of examinations, appeals, and trials concerning patent applications, requests for examination.
Please refer to these judicial precedents when you respond to a notification of reasons for refusal, request for examination or appeal.
