Ex Parte McDevitt et al SCHEINER 103(a) MICHAEL C. BARRETT FULBRIGHT & JAWORSKI L.L.P.
In re Vaeck, 947 F.2d 488, 493 (Fed. Cir. 1991) (citation omitted).Where claimed subject matter has been rejected as obvious in
view of a combination of prior art references, a proper analysis
under § 103 requires, inter alia, consideration of two factors:
(1) whether the prior art would have suggested to those of
ordinary skill in the art that they should . . . carry out the
claimed process; and (2) whether the prior art would also
have revealed that in so . . . carrying out, those of ordinary skill
would have had a reasonable expectation of success. Both the
suggestion and the reasonable expectation of success must be
founded in the prior art, not in the applicant’s disclosure.
