Dispute Summary
The appeal challenged the Patent Office's refusal to grant a patent for 'Topologically Structured Polymer Coating.' The appellants argued that the invention was novel and inventive, citing acceptance by the European Patent Office (EPO). The IPAB found that the Controller's refusal order lacked clarity and explicit reasons, leading to the remand of the case.
