Appeal No. 1998-0233
Application 08/469,065
obvious to mount the business card holders of Ristuccia in a
holder such as the Hanson holder.
Claims 22 and 27 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103
as unpatentable over Hanson in view of Ristuccia, Goldman, and
further in view of McCabe. Here again, McCabe teaches using
slits that extend outwardly from the holes. The examiner is
of the view that it would have been obvious to mount the
credit card holders of Ristuccia in the mounting system of
Hanson and to
provide the credit card holder with holes and slits as taught
by McCabe and Goldman.
As noted by the examiner, claims 19, 20, 24 and 25
have been separately argued by appellant in the brief.
Therefore, the examiner concludes that claims 21 through 23
will stand or fall
with claim 19 and claims 26 through 28 will stand or fall with
claim 24.
