The prior art identified (notably US 2003/0040854 and other US patents), corroborated by the APO search report and expert affidavit, anticipates or renders obvious the claimed features of the ST Patent; the respondent failed to produce credible evidence of a triable issue or to displace the applicant's prima facie case; accordingly the ST Patent HK1080272 is revoked under s91(1)(a) of the Patents Ordinance for lack of novelty and inventive step.
