QADRI et al. v. BEYERS et al. v. BATLOGG et al. - Page 54




          Interference No. 101,981                                                   



          requirement of 35 U.S.C. § 112.  Credle v. Bond, 25 F.3d 1566,             
          1572 fn14, 30 USPQ2d 1911, fn14 (Fed. Cir. 1994).                          
               Beyers does not seek review of their motion for judgment on           
          the independent ground of a lack of written description.                   


          Whether Batlogg’s Application Complies With The Enablement                 
          Requirement of 35 U.S.C. § 112                                             
               Both junior parties raise an issue with respect to Batlogg’s          
          compliance with the enablement requirement.  The enablement issue          
          was previously raised in two Preliminary Motions under 37 C.F.R.           
          § 1.633:  Beyers (#2, paper no. 29, pp. 2-3) and Qadri (Q5, paper          
          no. 39, p. 6); both of which were denied by the APJ (paper no.             
          131).  We discuss Beyers first.                                            
          BEYERS                                                                     
               Beyers (BeB 42-44) acknowledges that they are raising an              
          issue which was the subject of a previous preliminary motion.              
          However, they fail to state that the motion was denied and do not          
          request review of that denial.  We presume that, by resurrecting           
          the issue, Beyers is implicitly seeking review of the denial of            
          that motion.  We will assume arguendo that this is the case.               
               On the substantive issue here under review, while stating             
          that Batlogg’s application fails to meet the requirements of 35            

                                         54
