Appeal No. 1998-1962 Page 14 Application No. 08/213,933 The reference to Monoson We have also reviewed the Monoson reference cited by the 4 examiner but find nothing therein which makes up for the5 deficiencies of Perry discussed above regarding claims 1, 7 and 13. CONCLUSION To summarize, the decision of the examiner to reject claims 1 through 10 and 12 through 22 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed. REVERSED CHARLES E. FRANKFORT ) Administrative Patent Judge ) ) ) ) ) BOARD OF PATENT JOHN P. McQUADE ) APPEALS 4U.S. Patent No. 5,076,079 issued December 31, 1991. 5The examiner applied both Perry and Monoson in the two rejections set forth on pages 3-4 of the answer. However, as noted in footnote 2 above, stated that Perry is "being used singularly." Accordingly, we treated the rejection of the claims under appeal as being based on 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Perry alone.Page: Previous 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
