Appeal No. 97-2145
Application 08/566,120
DECISION ON APPEAL
This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims 1
and 4. These claims constitute all of the claims remaining in
the application.
Appellant’s invention pertains to a sun catcher. An
understanding of the invention can be derived from a reading of
claims 1 and 4, copies of which appear in the “APPENDIX” to
appellant’s brief (Paper No. 8).
As evidence of obviousness, the examiner has applied
the single document specified below:2
Colbert et al. (Colbert) 1,802,170 Apr. 21, 1931
The following rejections are before us for review.3
2No reference was set forth in section 9 of the answer
(page 2). However, the listed Colbert patent is the only
document of that name in the record (NOTICE OF REFERENCES CITED;
attachment to Paper No. 2).
3A final rejection of claim 1 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, second
paragraph, was overcome, as indicated by the examiner (answer,
page 3).
