D. PRINCIPLES OF LAW
To establish a prima facie case of Obviousness, three basic criteria
must be met. First, there must be some suggestion or motivation, either in
the references themselves or in the knowledge generally available to one of
ordinary skill in the art, to modify the reference or to combine reference
teachings. Second, there must be a reasonable expectation of success.
Finally, the prior art reference (or references when combined) must teach or
suggest all the claim limitations. The teaching or suggestion to make the
claimed combination and the reasonable expectation of success must both be
found in the prior art and not based on applicant’s disclosure. In re Vaeck,
