Appeal No. 1998-3402 Page 6
Application No. 08/190,929
defines the metes and bounds thereof with a reasonable degree
of precision and particularity.1
For the reasons set forth above, the decision of the
examiner to reject claims 4 and 5 under 35 U.S.C. § 112,
second paragraph, is reversed.
1It appears to us that a redundant claim can be objected
to by the examiner as failing to comply with the requirement
of
37 CFR § 1.75(b) that claims differ from each other. See MPEP
§ 706.03(k) (Seventh Edition, Rev. 1, Feb. 2000).
