The latest patent application has received a non-final rejection, with the examiner determining that it did not pass the "obviousness" test. As with the previous non-final rejection, TriCascade will have three months to file an appeal response.


#2. Concept Is Too Obvious

You’re not allowed to patent a process or machine that’s already easy for someone to figure out on their own. This determination is also an opinion of the USPTO. Your invention needs to be unique from prior art, as the more unique it is, the more likely it will be approved. A key test is how much the new product differs in features and functions from existing patents. If the examiner cannot cite prior art, then your invention should be considered non-obvious.
