          Appeal No. 1999-1189                                                        
          Application 08/219,317                                                      

          these copolymers with precise alkyl acrylate comonomer contents             
          (answer, pages 5 and 9).  The examiner, however, does not rely              
          upon Latiolais for a teaching which cures the above-discussed               
          deficiency in Batchelor.  Consequently, we reverse the rejection            
          over Batchelor taken with official notice and Latiolais.                    
                                      DECISION                                        
               The rejections of claims 28-36 and 40-58 under 35 U.S.C.               
          § 103 over Batchelor taken with official notice, and over                   
          Batchelor taken with official notice and Latiolais, are reversed.
