Appeal No. 2003-0593
Application 08/329,345
35 U.S.C. § 103. The examiner has thus not advanced a line of
reasoning to us that it would have been obvious for the artisan
to have combined the respective teachings of Kim and Baer and
Young and Baer. Instead, the examiner has presented us with a
speculative line of reasoning which is not the standard of
combinability within 35 U.S.C. § 103.
In view of the foregoing, the decision of the examiner
rejecting each independent claim on appeal and its respective
dependent claims is therefore reversed. Accordingly, the
decision of the examiner is reversed.
REVERSED
