          Appeal No. 95-4010                                                          
          Application 08/082,338                                                      



          evidence in order to establish a prima facie case.  In re                   
          Knapp-Monarch Co., 296 F.2d 230, 232, 132 USPQ 6, 8 (CCPA                   
          1961); In re Cofer, 354 F.2d 664, 668, 148 USPQ 268, 271-72                 
          (CCPA 1966).  Therefore, we find that the Examiner has failed               
          to establish why one having ordinary skill in the art would                 
          have been led to the claimed invention by teachings or                      
          suggestions found in the prior art.                                         
                    We have not sustained the rejection of claims 2                   
          through 18 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  Accordingly, the Examiner's              
          decision is reversed.                                                       
                                     REVERSED
