NEWSLETTER-2017

308 NEWSLETTER 2017 • Failure to explain the invention sufficiently in application documentation; • The definition of the subject patent expands beyond that as set out in the initial application; • If it is proved that the patent right owner is not entitled to request the patent right; • If the protection of the patent is exceeded. Conclusion Similar to other industrial property rights, through the IPL, vari- ous amendments are introduced concerning patent rights. Accordingly, the patent process without examination is repealed, the objection right following the patent decision is granted, certain rights are granted to inventors studying in universities, and patent processes are facilitated. Through explained amendments, the IPL aims to align itself with European legislation.
