The other day, when I was examining the patent system in my company, numbers of my patent applications were displayed, and it was just 100.

To tell the truth, the number includes applications I was not the lead inventor, I think that the lead invention of me will be reduced by 20%.

However, in many applications, I have experimented to give me some rare notices of reasons for rejection others have not.

Most reasons for refusal are violations of inventive step (Article 29, paragraph 2), executable requirements (36), violations of unity (37). In addition to the violation of novelty (Article 29 (1)) and the earlier application (Article 39), I have gotten great things called "public order and morality violation".

"Some examiners of the patent office surely knows my name"

I think it as my pleases.

I had heard the story that "there is a "notice of allowance" without notice of reasons for refusal" on the grapevine.

Of course, I did not believe it.
