Appeal No. 2004-1254 Application No. 09/625,884 sustain the standing 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) rejection of claims 1, 7, 11, 13, 17 and 22, and dependent claims 2 through 5, 8 through 10, 12, 14 through 16, 18 through 20 and 23, as being unpatentable over Fey in view of Ugawa. As the examiner’s application of Bridgeman does not cure the flaws in the Fey-Ugawa combination relative to the subject matter recited in parent claims 13 and 17, we also shall not sustain the standing 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) rejection of dependent claims 24 through 27 as being unpatentable over Fey in view of Ugawa and Bridgeman. 6Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
