Appeal No. 1999-0663
Application 08/624,047
affirmance is deferred until conclusion of the prosecution before
the examiner unless, as a mere incident to the limited
prosecution, the affirmed rejection is overcome.
If the appellants elect prosecution before the examiner and
this does not result in allowance of the application, abandonment
or a second appeal, this case should be returned to the Board of
Patent Appeals and Interferences for final action on the affirmed
rejection, including any timely request for rehearing thereof.
No time period for taking any subsequent action in connec-
tion with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a).
AFFIRMED, 37 CFR § 1.196(b)
