For many years, patent law has struggled with the question of whether a series of thoughts can be patented. Under the mental steps doctrine, the answer was no. More recently, the answer has been maybe, it depends. The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which has exclusive jurisdiction over all patent appeals, recently revisited the issue in the newly minted case of In re Bilski. Generally, the mental steps doctrine states that an invention is not entitled to patent protection if it involves only mental steps. The mental steps doctrine addresses the threshold question concerning whether the invention constitutes patentable subject matter under 35 U.S.C. §101 (i.e., whether the invention falls within the types of thing that can be patented).

If CRA has entirely or partially denied your SR&ED claim, there are two steps you can take to have their decision reviewed and potentially overturned. These two steps are the same whether the issue is "technical" or "expenditure" related, i.e. CRA has ruled that an R&D activity does not qualify as SR&ED, or that an amount claimed in respect of such activity does not attract an SR&ED benefit.

Bulletin #46 - Significant New Tax Court Canada Ruling on SR&ED?
1. NUMBER 46 | JUNE 6, 2011
Significant New Tax Court Canada Ruling on SR&ED?
Jentel clarifies the need to prove the “technological risk or advance” – for better or worse
On May 11, 2011, Justice Steven K. D’Arcy dismissed an appeal to the Tax Court of Canada (“Tax Court”)
made by Jentel Manufacturing Ltd. of Calgary for its SR&ED claim for tax year 2005. Our “Learn More” feature
at the end of this bulletin gives a URL at which you can read Jentel and two other important court rulings
involving SR&ED.
Jentel is a concise, clearly written judgement that confirms the meaning of “systematic investigation” that has
been established in several earlier court rulings. It also restates the need for advancement and uncertainty as
a pre-requisite for attracting SR&ED benefits to expenditures made in the investigation.
Is it there anything new here? Not really. Is it significant to SR&ED claimants? Absolutely. In addition to
providing a concise definition of SR&ED, Jentel is a useful illustration of the Tax Court process.
Background
In his reasons for judgement, Justice D’Arcy cites Northwest Hydraulics, which is generally acknowledged to
be a seminal decision that has shaped both administrative policy and jurisprudence in relation to SR&ED. He
also cites C.W. Agencies, which itself also cites Northwest Hydraulics, and with approval. This is significant
because C.W. Agencies is a decision by the Federal Court of Appeal, which is the next level above the Tax
Court and provides the venue for appeal of Tax Court decisions.
Both Northwest Hydraulics and C.W. Agencies are lengthy cases and not particularly easy to read – especially
for persons outside the legal profession. This is largely because these cases involve multiple projects with
multiple different scientific issues. Jentel, on the other hand, involves a small number of relatively simple
projects that were described to the court in a Statement of Agreed Facts (“SAF”). This makes it particularly
useful as readily accessible guidance to anyone with an interest in SR&ED – both taxpayers and CRA.
So, what happened in Jentel? Simply put, a company that manufactures moulded plastic products made an
SR&ED claim for expenditures incurred for experimental development related to improving its modular storage
bin system product. As described in the SAF, the work undertaken involved determining geometric shapes to
provide snap fit closures and evaluating the strength / weight properties of various materials shaped by means
of different manufacturing processes for this application. The CRA reassessed to deny Jentel’s claims, and
Jentel instituted an appeal to the Tax Court of Canada.
2. NUMBER 46 | JUNE 6, 2011, revised SEPTEMBER 23, 2011 SCITAX BULLETIN | PAGE 2
Justice D’Arcy’s comment “I found both witnesses to be credible. However, I have placed no weight on Mr.
Leong’s testimony as most of his evidence was, in my view, opinion evidence.” [3] is intriguing and a tad
cryptic. Mr. Leong was the CRA’s science / technical advisor. Since all expert testimony is by nature “opinion
evidence” it is not clear whether the court found something lacking in Leong’s credentials or that the Crown
failed to undertake the requisite procedures to qualify him as an expert witness. It is notable that over the
years, CRA has seldom called its own SR&ED science auditors in court proceedings.
The Result
The court dismissed the taxpayer’s appeal, finding that none of the activities for which expenditures were
claimed qualified as eligible for SR&ED. The judgement makes two important findings:
First, the court acknowledged and accepted that, as stated in the SAF, the taxpayer had undertaken a
“systematic investigation” and that adequate records had been kept to support the investigation [5].
Second, the court ruled that although a systematic investigation had been undertaken, no evidence was
presented to show that it had been undertaken in an attempt to achieve a technological advancement [28]
that involved a technological uncertainty [16]. Justice D’Arcy’s finding that the taxpayer must lead evidence
to prove both that there was a systematic scientific investigation and that the investigation involved an
attempt to overcome a technological uncertainty to achieve a technological advancement, is not really new
in the jurisprudence on SR&ED – this was the finding in C.W. Agencies. What is new in Jentel is the level
of clarity achieved in the judgement of this principle – for better or worse.
So why is this ruling significant to taxpayers who seek to claim SR&ED?
What It Does
The judgment highlights the potential danger of using a Statement of Agreed Facts in tax litigation. An SAF
records the facts that both the appellant taxpayer and the Crown agree on, so that there is no need to lead
evidence to prove these facts. Although this can make the trial less expensive and less risky, the downside is
that it can limit the scope of information available in the proceedings and there is no guarantee that the judge
will interpret those facts in the way you expect.
While the SAF in Jentel was useful to establish the fact of an adequately documented systematic investigation,
Justice D’Arcy is clear in stating that he did not have evidence of an attempt to achieve a technological
advance before him. He is equally clear in stating that the two sources of evidence that he relied on in making
his decision were the SAF and the testimony of the owner and president of Jentel, and it appears from the
judgement and the parts of the SAF that are quoted in the decision, that the SAF and the evidence of the
company’s president focused on the need to improve the form of the product, rather than the challenges
inherent in changing the form.
We wonder why factors such as failures due to unanticipated changes in the behaviour properties of the
materials during thermo-forming were never raised in evidence as the technical uncertainty; One would expect
to see at least some mention of things like flexural modulus or tensile strength mentioned in relation to specific
failure modes observed in various iterations of experimental prototype products. The absence of this type of
evidence suggests that the reliance on the SAF was a double-edged sword. While the SAF allowed certain
facts to be established quickly and cheaply, it did not go far enough to establish the technological advance
attempted, which is what was needed to win the trial.
Unfortunately, what we fear may happen is that Jentel may be used by CRA auditors to clamp down even
more aggressively on SR&ED claims for “shop floor” work in general and mould/ die-forming claims in
particular.
3. NUMBER 46 | JUNE 6, 2011, revised SEPTEMBER 23, 2011 SCITAX BULLETIN | PAGE 3
What It Doesn’t Do
There is nothing here that vindicates CRA’s new definition of technological uncertainty / obstacle as
“shortcomings and/or limitations of the current state of technology that prevented you from developing the new
or improved capability”. This is the CRA’s current administrative replacement for the definition established by
Justice Bowman in his Northwest Hydraulics ruling, which was that technological uncertainty is “something that
exists in the mind of the specialist” … “that cannot be removed by routine engineering or standard procedures”.
Neither is there anything that would support a requirement that a claim for “experimental development” as this
term is defined in paragraph “c” of the definition of SR&ED in subsection 248(1) of the Act must entail an
advancement of scientific knowledge (as is required under paragraphs “a” and “b” of this subsection).
Conclusion
In our view the negative outcome in this case is largely attributable to two factors:
First, the apparent reliance on a Statement of Agreed Facts, which can limit the scope of information that is
presented to the court. It is the Tax Court judge who makes findings of fact from the evidence presented.
The Tax Court judge’s finding of fact generally cannot be changed on appeal. Reliance on a Statement of
Agreed Facts at the Tax Court can be particularly dangerous in SR&ED cases where there is typically a
large set of complex facts that must be clearly presented, often in an historical timeline.
Second, the taxpayer chose not to present expert evidence concerning the technological uncertainty it was
trying to resolve. While presenting expert testimony can be costly, it is essential in an SR&ED appeal
because in Tax Court Canada proceedings the onus of proof – the obligation to establish the facts – is on
the taxpayer.
In paragraph [10] of the Jentel ruling, Justice D’Arcy’s writes: “In my view the work involved the Appellant using
existing manufacturing processes and existing materials in an attempt to improve its existing product. This
involved routine engineering and standard procedures” [emphasis added].
Perhaps more than any other court ruling on SR&ED, Jentel highlights the requirement that SR&ED claims
have to be made in respect of specific problems or challenges that are outside the bounds of what a competent
professional would be expected to know. Unless the work is truly “new to the world”, the taxpayer has to lead
evidence to clearly show how existing methods and standard practices failed to achieve the objective, and thus
gave rise to the need for a systematic investigation.
