Appeal No. 1999-1348 Application No. 08/435,798 advanced in appellants’ brief, is not properly before the Board and will not be considered.4 As should be evident from our discussion above, appellants’ request for rehearing has been reviewed and the request granted to the extent of our reconsidering our earlier decision in light thereof, but is denied with respect to making any changes in that decision. No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a). 4See Schreiber, 128 F.3d at 1479, 44 USPQ2d at 1433; In re Kroekel, 803 F.2d 705, 708, 231 USPQ 640, 642-43 (Fed.
