               Appeal No. 1996-3996                                                                                                   
               Application 08/250,578                                                                                                 


                   disclosed embodiment, or any other embodiment within the scope of the claims would not meet                        

                   the stated objectives.  We find that Appellant’s disclosure meets the requirements of 35 U.S.C.                    

                   §  112, first paragraph.  Therefore, we will not sustain the Examiner’s rejection of the claims                    

                   under 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph.                                                                            

                           In view of the foregoing, the decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1 through 5                        

                   under 35 U.S.C. §  112, first paragraph is reversed.                                                               

                           No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be                      

                   extended under   37 CFR § 1.136(a).
