                Appeal 2007-0685                                                                             
                Application 10/242,336                                                                       

                locate the inlet for the electrolyte between the fluidstatic bearing and the                 
                open top surface of the workpiece.                                                           
                      As a final point, we note that Appellant bases no argument upon                        
                objective evidence of nonobviousness, such as unexpected results, which                      
                would serve to rebut the prima facie case of obviousness established by the                  
                Examiner.                                                                                    
                      In conclusion, based on the foregoing and the reasons well stated by                   
                the Examiner, the Examiner’s decision rejecting the appealed claims is                       
                affirmed.                                                                                    
                      No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with                     
                this appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a)(1)(iv) (2006).
