1642 Ex Parte LASKEY 14489207 - (D) FLAX 101 Quine IP Law Group REDDIG, PETER J
Regarding a determination that, e.g., non natural-phenomenon, claim elements are merely routine and conventional, the Federal Circuit has explained that
Whether something is well-understood, routine, and conventional to a skilled artisan at the time of the patent is a factual determination. Whether a particular technology is well understood, routine, and conventional goes beyond what was simply known in the prior art. The mere fact that something is disclosed in a piece of prior art, for example, does not mean it was well-understood, routine, and conventional.
Berkheimer v. HP Inc., 881 F.3d 1360, 1369 (Fed. Cir. 2018).
