This episode is about an opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit addresses a dispute concerning a patent application for an integrated logistics system. The core issue revolves around whether a prior published patent application, referred to as Lettich, can be considered prior art against the current application. The court is specifically examining if Lettich can claim the earlier filing date of its provisional application, which would impact its status as prior art. Ultimately, the court vacates and remands the Patent Trial and Appeal Board's decision because the Board did not adequately analyze whether the specific content in Lettich relied upon to reject the current application was supported by Lettich's provisional application.
