"The Annotated European Patent Convention reproduces the complete text of the European Patent Convention, the Implementing Regulations, two Protocols and the Rules relating to Fees in the form in which they are in force on 1 April 2019. The notes to each individual article and rule of the Convention provide a commentary on the text of the law, explaining the interpretation of each paragraph. The notes give a short indication of important issues having a bearing on the interpretation of the law. They include references to case law up to 1 April 2019 and the Guidelines for Examination in the European Patent Office, edition November 2018. The notes give the transitional provisions from the EPC 1973 to the EPC 2000 where they are still relevant. The reader is referred to the 14th edition of this book for provisions of the EPC 1973 which may still be applicable to specific cases; the EPC 1973 is not included in this book."--Introduction.
