Why is the substantive examination of the patent application rejected? When the patent applicant submits the materials, there will be some reasons that the patent application theme is unclear, the patent theme violates the national laws and regulations, the patent theme is not granted to the patent technology field, the patent theme is not creative, practical and novel, or the patent you applied for has been registered in advance. These cases will be rejected by the patent office.
What if the patent application is rejected? When the patent we applied for is rejected, we need to file a patent reexamination request within three months from the date of receiving the notice of rejection. When applying for patent reexamination, we need to determine the reasons for patent rejection, make corresponding treatment according to the actual situation, and we also need to prepare the corresponding patent reexamination officer fees. When we submit the patent reexamination materials, we need to explain and explain the rejection conditions, and we can also modify the patent application documents to pass the patent substantive examination.
However, if we put forward the conditions for patent reexamination and the Patent Office continues to maintain the rejection result unchanged, then we can bring a lawsuit to the people's court as the power reexamination board. If we win the case, we can also successfully apply for the corresponding patent. We also know that patent reexamination is troublesome, so in the process of patent application, we suggest that you choose a formal patent agency, which will help improve the success rate of patent application.
The above is about why the substantive examination of the patent application was rejected. Many patent applications were rejected after filing, largely due to the imperfect materials submitted by patent applicants and other factors, so it is very important to choose a professional agency.
