Ex parte DAVID - Page 5

          Appeal No. 97-2462                                                          
          Application 29/031,592                                                      


          the David '536 patent is not a Rosen reference.  Lacking a Rosen            
          reference, the examiner's rejection under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is                
          inappropriate and cannot be sustained.                                      
                    The decision of the examiner is reversed.                         
                                      REVERSED
