Appeal No. 1997-4426
Application No. 08/515,767
With respect to each of the other independent claims,
we agree with appellants that the examiner has not attempted
to address the specific limitations of these claims which are
different from the limitations of claim 29. Therefore, the
examiner has clearly not established a prima facie case of the
obviousness of these claims. Thus, we do not sustain the
rejection of any of the claims on appeal in this application
based on this record.
In conclusion, the decision of the examiner rejecting
claims 29 and 31-52 is reversed.
