Appeal No. 1998-1782 Page 3
Application No. 08/472,332
BACKGROUND
The appellant's invention relates to a reflective sign.
An understanding of the invention can be derived from a
reading of exemplary claim 1, which appears in the appendix to
the appellant's brief.
The references of record relied upon by the examiner in
rejecting the appealed claims are:
Eskilson 1,719,602 July 2,
1929
Kochanowski 5,442,870 Aug. 22,
1995
Claims 4 through 14 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 112,
second paragraph, as being indefinite for failing to
particularly point out and distinctly claim the subject matter
which the appellant regards as the invention.
Claims 1 and 2 stand rejected under the judicially
created doctrine of double patenting over claim 1 of
Kochanowski.
