Appeal No. 96-0462
Application 08/165,513
could suggest the provision of an electrode having a high
surface resistivity extending over a central portion of an
electrode array, but having sufficient surface conductivity to
distribute static electricity over the area of the array, as
required by Claim 1" (Br14). The Examiner has failed to
establish a prima facie case of obviousness. The rejection of
claims 1, 2, 4, and 5 under § 103 is reversed.
