Appeal No. 96-3258
Application 08/241,875
There are no references relied on by the examiner.
Claims 4 to 10 and 13 stand rejected under the second
paragraph of 35 U.S.C. § 112 as being indefinite for failing
to particularly point out and distinctly claim the subject
matter which appellant regards as the invention. The
examiner’s position is expressed at pages 3 and 4 of the
Answer.
Rather than repeat the positions of the appellant and the
examiner, reference is made to the Brief and the Answer for 2
the respective details thereof.
OPINION
For all the reasons expressed by the examiner in the
Answer, and for the additional reasons presented here, we will
sustain the rejection of claims 4 to 10 and 13 under the
second paragraph 35 U.S.C. § 112.
2The Reply Brief filed on September 4, 1996 has not
been entered by the examiner in a communication dated
September 25, 1996. Therefore, we have not considered it in
our deliberations.
