          Appeal No. 94-4409                                                          
          Application 07/958,526                                                      


          which held up the rate of prosecution of the present                        
          application.  We therefore ?procedurally? reverse the stated                
          rejection under the judicially-created doctrine of                          
          obviousness-type double patenting.                                          
               In summary, the examiner’s rejection of the appealed                   
          claims for obviousness (35 USC § 103) is affirmed.  The                     
          examiner’s rejection of certain of the appealed claims based                
          on the judicially-created doctrine of obviousness-type double               
          patenting is reversed.  The decision of the examiner is                     
          affirmed.                                                                   





               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                    
          § 1.136(a).                                                                 

                                      AFFIRMED                                        






                                          12
