Double patenting rejections in the chemical field in the Japanese patent practice are really unique and a little bit tricky. Particularly, applicants have to pay attention to claim recitations in the Markush form which is often used in the chemical field. In this Webinar, we will explain the unique features of double patenting rejections in Japan in detail and introduce our suggestions on strategies to overcome this type of rejection.
