A quick definition of prolixity rejection:

Prolixity rejection is when a patent application is rejected because the language used is too wordy and confusing, making it hard to understand the invention. This is one of many reasons why a patent application may be rejected. Other reasons include lack of novelty, obviousness, and errors in format. When a patent application is rejected, it means that the invention cannot be patented and protected from others using or copying it without permission.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Prolixity rejection is a type of rejection in patent law where a patent application is rejected because the language used is too wordy and tedious, making it difficult to understand the invention being claimed.

Example: An inventor submits a patent application for a new type of bicycle. However, the application is written in a convoluted and verbose manner, making it difficult for a person of ordinary skill in the art to understand the invention. As a result, the patent examiner issues a prolixity rejection, stating that the language used is too wordy and tedious, and the application needs to be rewritten in a clear and concise manner.

This example illustrates how prolixity rejection is used to ensure that patent applications are written in a clear and concise manner, making it easier for others to understand the invention being claimed.
