Appeal No. 1995-2659
Application 07/896,705
Therefore, patented independent claim 1 covers a process
where “all the fatty acid is in the form of a fat”. It
follows therefrom that the application claims, which are
also directed to fat, would not encompass a distinct and
independent invention from that already patented.
The examiner should review the restriction
requirement in light of our comments and take appropriate
action.
