UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE
____________
BEFORE THE BOARD OF PATENT APPEALS
AND INTERFERENCES
____________
Ex parte LARS CROON and BERTIL ERIKSSON
____________
Appeal No. 1998-1942
Application No. 08/530,254
____________
ON BRIEF1
____________
Before McCANDLISH, Senior Administrative Patent Judge, NASE and
GONZALES, Administrative Patent Judges.
NASE, Administrative Patent Judge.
1On March 21, 2000, the appellants waived the oral
hearing (see Paper No. 20) scheduled for April 5, 2000. We
also note that the appellants have filed a request for refund
(Paper No. 18, filed June 10, 1998) of the $135 oral hearing
fee charged to their deposit account on January 5, 1998. The
fee history records of the application does not indicate that
the $135 check for the oral hearing (Check No. 17328) was ever
processed. However, the fee history records of the
application does indicate that the $135 oral hearing fee was
credited back to the appellants deposit account on April 20,
1998. The examiner should ensure that all required fees in
this application have been paid and that all excess fees have
been refunded.
