Appeal No. 2004-1561
Application No. 09/631,474

ON BRIEF

Before HAIRSTON, GROSS, and BARRY, Administrative Patent Judges.
HAIRSTON, Administrative Patent Judge.
DECISION ON APPEAL
This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims
45 through 54 and 56 through 88. In an Amendment After Final
(paper number 8) claims 49 and 67 were canceled, and claim 61 was
amended. After submission of the brief, the examiner indicated
(answer, pages 2 and 3) that claims 48, 50, 56, 65, 66, 68,
81 and 88 are objected to as being dependent upon rejected base
claims, but would be allowable if rewritten in independent form.
Accordingly, claims 45 through 47, 51 through 54, 57 through 64,
69 through 80 and 82 through 87 remain before us on appeal.
