DECISION ON APPEAL
This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the
examiner's final rejection of claims 11-131, which are all of the
claims pending in this application.
BACKGROUND
Appellant's invention relates to a method of suspending a
musical recorder from the neck of a user. An understanding of
1 Appellant asserts (brief, page 3) that claims 11 and 12 are being
appealed, and that claim 13 is "not a subject of this appeal." We observe
that the examiner's answer only refers to claims 11 and 12. Accordingly, the
appeal is dismissed as to finally rejected claim 13.
