Before COHEN, NASE, and JENNIFER D. BAHR, Administrative Patent
Judges.
NASE, Administrative Patent Judge.
DECISION ON APPEAL
This is a decision on appeal from the examiner's final
rejection of claims 1 to 3, 8 and 9. Claims 4 to 7 and 10,
the only other claims pending in this application, have been
objected to as depending from a non-allowed claim.1
1The examiner and the appellants have referred to these
claims as having been allowed. However, since these claims
depend from a non-allowed claim, the proper designation for
these claims is that they are objected to.
