Appeal No. 1996-3409 Application No. 08/092,543 Like the rejections under 35 U.S.C. § 103, we find no reason stemming from the patented claims which would have led a person having ordinary skill to the claimed method. The rejections of the claims on double patenting grounds over U.S. Patent Nos. 4,863,873 and 5,104,639 are reversed. No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a). AFFIRMED ) SHERMAN D.
