2116 Ex Parte Huynh 11452713 - (D) McKONE 103 IMPERIUM PATENT WORKS RAHMAN, FAHMIDA

According to the Federal Circuit:

A reference may be said to teach away when a person of ordinary skill, upon reading the reference, would be discouraged from following the path set out in the reference, or would be led in a direction divergent from the path that was taken by the applicant. . . . [I]n general, a reference will teach away if it suggests that the line of development flowing from the reference’s disclosure is unlikely to be productive of the result sought by the applicant.
