Appeal No. 97-4260 Application 08/445,660 4, 6 to 11, and 14 to 18, all of the claims remaining in the application. However, in the examiner's answer, the examiner did not repeat a provisional rejection of all of the claims on the ground of double patenting, so that rejection is assumed to be withdrawn. Ex parte Emm, 118 USPQ 180 (Bd. Apps. 1957). Since claims 4 and 18 were not finally rejected on any other ground, they are not involved in this appeal. The subject matter on appeal concerns a pallet formed of upper and lower thermoplastic sheets. The claims on appeal are reproduced in the Appendix to appellants' brief, although we note that claims 16 and 17 therein do not include all of the additions made by the amendment filed on May 22, 1995 (Paper No. 14).
