Appeal No. 95-4743
Application No. 08/066,773
§ 1.197(c)) as to the rejected claims:
(1) Submit an appropriate amendment of
the claims so rejected or a showing of
facts relating to the claims so rejected,
or both, and have the matter considered by
the examiner, in which event the
application will be remanded to the
examiner. . . .
(2) Request that the application be
reheard under § 1.197(b) by the Board of
Patent Appeal and Interferences upon the
same record. . . .
Should the appellant elect to prosecute further before
the Primary Examiner pursuant to 37 CFR § 1.196(b)(1), in
order to preserve the right to seek review under 35 U.S.C. §§
141 or 145 with respect to the affirmed rejection, the
effective date of the affirmance is deferred until conclusion
of the prosecution before the examiner unless, as a mere
incident to the limited prosecution, the affirmed rejection is
overcome.
If the appellant elects prosecution before the examiner
and this does not result in allowance of the application,
abandonment or a second appeal, this case should be returned
to the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences for final
