          Appeal No.2003-1091                                                         
          Application No. 09/484,248                                                  

          Lantech Inc., 807 F.2d 970, 973 n.*, 1 USPQ2d 1202, 1204 n.*                
          (Fed. Cir. 1986).                                                           
               In summary, with respect to the Examiner’s 35 U.S.C.                   
          § 102(b) rejection, we have sustained the rejection of claim 1,             
          but have not sustained the rejection of claim 14.  We have also             
          sustained the Examiner’s 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) rejection of claims             
          2-13 and 18-20, but have not sustained the 35 U.S.C. § 103(a)               
          rejection of claims 15-17.  Therefore, the Examiner’s decision              
          rejecting claims 1-20 is affirmed-in-part.                                  
                    No time period for taking any subsequent action in                
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                    
          § 1.136(a).
