Dispute Summary
Auckland Uniservices Limited appealed the Assistant Controller's refusal of a patent application for 'Magnetic Field Shaping for Inductive Power Transfer'. The refusal was based on lack of inventive step over prior art. The High Court set aside the impugned order, finding that the Respondent failed to provide reasoned analysis regarding how a person skilled in the art would move from existing knowledge to the claimed invention.
