Appeal No. 2003-2055 Application No. 09/399,213 request to identify a task within a series of tasks to which an item is associated, and returning an identifier of the task in response to determining that the item is associated with the task. The section 103 rejection over Choy and Li does not separately address the remaining independent claims (13 and 25). Each of claims 13 and 25 recites functions similar to those of the limitations of claim 1 that are not taught by the combination of Choy and Li. Further, since neither Kauffman nor Antognini remedy the deficiencies of the rejection applied against the base claims, we do not sustain any of the rejections under 35 U.S.C. § 103. -5-Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
