          Appeal No. 1999-1058                                                        
          Application No. 08/832,960                                                  


               This is a decision on an appeal from the examiner's final              
          rejection of claims 1 through 14, which are all of the claims               
          in the application.                                                         
               We REVERSE.                                                            
               The subject matter on appeal is directed to a method for               
          carrying out an automatic braking operation for a motor-                    
          vehicle brake system with an anti-lock system (ABS), and more               
          particularly, to a method used in a system with a manual                    
          operable brake actuating device, the position of which                      
          determines the brake pressure during non-automatic normal                   
          braking, and with an ABS which detects reaching of the lock-up              
          limit of a wheel and thereupon controls the brake pressure for              
          at least this wheel.  The method includes the steps of                      
          controlling, via the automatic braking operation, the brake                 
          pressure of at least one wheel not subjected to ABS control so              
          as to increase the brake pressure, and using the reaching of                
          the lock-up limit of at least one wheel as the trigger                      
          criterion.  Specification, page 1.
