Appeal No. 2001-1008 Application No. 08/971,097 presented a similar argument, the Court responded that there is no precedence that holds that objective analysis, proper authority, and reasoned findings can be omitted from Board decisions. See In re Lee, 277 F.3d at 1344, 61 USPQ2d at 1435. Therefore, we will not sustain the Examiner's rejection of claims 1 through 3, and 7 through 12 as being unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. § 103. In regard to the rejection of claims 4 through 6 and 13 under 35 U.S.C. § 103, we note that the Examiner relies on the same reason to combine Wolfe and Nishimura. Therefore, for the same reasons as above, we will not sustain this rejection. 77Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
