- CACV32/2016
Leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal was granted solely on the issue whether s.76(1) of the Patents Ordinance is relevant to identifying the invention for s.57 where the invention is embodied in a granted patent, because the Court's decision was the first Hong Kong authority addressing s.57; leave on the other grounds was refused as fact-sensitive and the 'or otherwise' ground was declined in line with ordinary practice.
