Appeal No. 1997-2741
Application 08/213,873
Other Issues
We note that the application file contains an Information Disclosure
Statement that was submitted on August 5, 1994, before the first Office action.
The IDS was never initialed by the examiner to show that he considered the cited
references. We also note that only the first two of the cited references are
currently in the application file. (Whether the other references cited were also
present at one time, we cannot tell.) Upon return of the case, the examiner
should treat the IDS as appropriate under 37 CFR §§ 1.97 and 1.98.
