Appeal No. 97-2967
Application 07/908,967
In support of this proposition, appellant has filed a copy of several pages from the text Structural
Engineering Handbook, (Gaylord, Jr. et al., Fourth Edition, McGraw-Hill, 1997) as Exhibit 1 to the
request. We will not consider the Structural Engineering Handbook because it was not accompanied
by a showing of good and sufficient reasons why it was not earlier presented. 37 CFR § 1.195. In
regard to appellant’s argument that no proof is needed to establish long felt need, we refer to page 8 of
our decision.
In light of the foregoing, appellant’s request is granted to the extent of reconsidering our
decision, but is denied with respect to making any changes thereof.
No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be
extended under 37 CFR 1.136(a).
