United States Federal Circuit
In re: DiStefano, 2015-1453
In an appeal of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board's rejection under 35 U.S.C. section 102 for anticipation of certain claims within plaintiff's patent, the Board's determination is reversed and remanded where the Board erred in finding that the origin of the web assets constituted printed matter in the claims at issue and erred in assigning the origin no patentable weight under the printed matter doctrine in finding anticipation by a previous patent.
