Appeal No. 96-3540 Application 07/815,654 authorization, no automatic authorization can be found as argued by Appellants. We find that all claims recite the automatic payment authorization upon validation which is not found or suggested in the applied prior art. Therefore we have not sustained the rejection of claims 1 through 12 under 35 U.S.C. § 103. Accordingly, the Examiner's decision is reversed. REVERSED ) LEE E.
