Appeal No. 1999-1761
Application No. 08/889,872
from a reading of exemplary claim 1, a copy of which appears
in a new APPENDIX to the brief (Paper No. 17).
As evidence of obviousness, the examiner has applied the
document specified below:
Boike et al. 5,477,745 Dec. 26,
1995
(Boike)
The following rejections are before us for review.
Claims 1 through 20 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 112,
first paragraph, as being based upon a specification which
lacks descriptive support for the claimed subject matter (new
matter).
Claims 1 through 20 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 112,
second paragraph, as being indefinite.
Claims 1 through 3 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. §
102(e) as being anticipated by Boike.
