| 中文摘要 |
進步性乃專利法中之不確定法律概念，其判斷涉及通常知識者之技術水準、先前技術範圍、發明與先前技術差距等諸多抽象概念之界定，乃困擾專利專責機關及法院之重要議題。相較於美歐國家已就進步性判斷建立一般性準則或問題手段準則之方法論，臺灣實務仍有相當之努力與法制建構空間。 |
| 英文摘要 |
The issue of judging inventive step in the proceedings of both patent prosecution and litigation has been one of the most challenging tasks. It is a crucial legal issue in the patent practice in Taiwan as it is unavoidable in most of the cases. The patent law can provide little guidance to judge the issue of inventive step because of the laws abstraction nature. The practice of the US and Germany heavily rely on the methodology generated by the case law to solve the issue. Their methodology works quite well and that the methodology of the US and Germany are surprisingly similar after comparing the case law in the two regions. The intention of this article is to introduce the US and the Germany the methodology with respect to judging inventive step on the basis of its case law and use it to review the Taiwanese practice. The key point of the recommended methodology is to focus on the subjective knowledge of the skilled in the art, not like the current Taiwanese case law which pays too much attention to the objective difference between the patent and prior art references. By properly applying the subjective rule may help correct the current difficulty facing in Taiwan that over 60% invention patents asserted in the patent litigation are held to be invalid. |
