1628 Ex Parte BHAGAT 13332251 - (D) FREDMAN 112(2)/101/102 Cermak Nakajima & McGowan LLP HEYER, DENNIS

We agree with Appellant. The Supreme Court articulated the test for indefiniteness as "requir[ing] that a patent's claims, viewed in light of the specification and prosecution history, inform those skilled in the art about the scope of the invention with reasonable certainty." Nautilus, Inc. v. Biosig Instruments, Inc., 572 U.S. 898, 910 (2014). "As long as claim terms satisfy this test, relative terms and words of degree do not render patent claims invalid." One-E-Way, Inc. v. International Trade Commission, 859 F.3d 1059, 1063 (Fed. Cir. 2017). "To determine whether a particular term is indefinite, ' [o]ne must bear in mind ... that patents are "not addressed to lawyers, or even to the public generally," but rather to those skilled in the relevant art."' Id. ( citing Nautilus, 572 U.S. at 909). 

Nautilus, Inc. v. Biosig Instruments, Inc., 134 S. Ct. 2120, 110 USPQ2d 1688 (2014) 2173.02
