               If the appellant elects prosecution before the examiner                
          and this does not result in allowance of the application,                   
          abandonment or a second appeal, this case should be returned                
          to the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences for final                  
          action on the affirmed rejection, including any timely request              
          for rehearing thereof.                                                      


               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R.                 
          § 1.136(a).
