          Appeal No. 97-1020                                                          
          Application 08/229,650                                                      



          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 appellants elect 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 action on the affirmed rejection,                   
          including any timely request for rehearing thereof.                         
                    No time period for taking any subsequent action in                
          con-nection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR §                 
          1.136(a).
