Appeal No. 96-1501 Application No. 08/172,517 § 103 results from a review of appellants' disclosure and the application of impermissible hindsight. Thus, we also cannot sustain the examiner's rejection of appealed claims 1 through 3, 5 and 6 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Matsumoto in view of Walker and Appellants' admitted prior art. We have also considered the additional teachings of the patent to Marzola applied in the further rejection of appealed claim 4 under § 103, but we again find nothing therein to cure the deficiencies noted above. Consequently, we also cannot sustain the examiner's rejection of appealed claim 4 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Matsumoto in view of Walker, Appellants0 admitted prior art and Marzola. 11Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
