or a second appeal, this case should be returned to the Board
of Patent Appeals and Interferences for final action on the
affirmed rejections, including any timely request for
rehearing thereof.
This application, by virtue of its "special" status,
requires an immediate action, M.P.E.P. § 708.01(D) (Seventh
