Headnote
Once the Controller gave up the three documents cited in his examination report, citing none at all in the hearing notice, there was nothing left to support a finding that the invention lacked an inventive step, and yet the finding was made. He also held that an amendment went beyond the original specification without explaining how, having allowed that amendment.
Disposition
Allowed. Matter remanded to the Controller of Patents for de novo consideration.
