Appeal No. 1997-0240 Application No. 08/163,761 In summary, since the Examiner has not established a prima facie case of obviousness, the 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection of independent claims 1, 5, 6, 10, and 15 and claims 2 through 4, 7 through 9, 11 through 14, 16, and 17 dependent thereon, cannot be sustained. Therefore, the decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1 through 17 is reversed. REVERSED JOHN C. MARTIN ) Administrative Patent Judge ) ) ) ) ) BOARD OF PATENT LEE E.
