`
`DETAILED ACTION
`
`Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 107
`
`1. 35 U.S.C. 101 reads as follows:
`
`Whoever invents or discovers any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter,
`or any new and useful improvement thereof, may obtain a patent therefor, subject to the conditions and
`requirements ofthis title.
`
`2. Claims 1-4 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 101 because the claimed invention is directed to
`
`nonstatutory subject matter. Based on Supreme Court precedent, a method/process claim
`
`must (1) be tied to another statutory class of invention (such as a particular apparatus) (see
`
`at least Diamond v. Diehr, 450 U.S. 175, 184 (1981); Parker v. Flook, 437 U.S. 584, 588 n.9
`
`(1978); Gottschalk v. Benson, 409 U.S. 63, 70 (1972); Cochrane v. Deener, 94 U.S. 780,
`
`787-88 (1876)) or (2) transform underlying subject matter (such as an article or materials) to
`
`a different state or thing (see at least Gottschalk v. Benson, 409 U.S. 63, 71 (1972)). A
`
`method/process claim that fails to meet one of the above requirements is not in compliance
`
`with the statutory requirements of 35 U.S.C. 101 for patent eligible subject matter. Here
`
`claims 1-4 fail to meet the above requirements because the claims fail to tie in another
`
`statutory class of invention.
`
`3. Claims 1-7 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 101 because the claimed invention lacks
`
`patentable utility. The invention product is “storing the association” of a digital media asset
`
`with its attribute. This provides neither specific nor substantial utility (MPEP § 2107.01).
`
`Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 102
`
`4. The following is a quotation of the appropriate paragraphs of 35 U.S.C. 102 that form the
`
`basis for the rejections under this
