Appeal No. 2005-1384 Application 09/886,200 Rehearing, appellant had the opportunity in the form of filing the brief and a reply brief to respond and assess the strength of the examiner’s rejections. Moreover, a Request for Rehearing permits appellant to ask for rehearing of our prior decision. The evidence of unpatentablity of appellant’s claims presented on appeal is based primarily upon the applied prior art and to a much lesser extent the examiner’s arguments. In view of the forgoing, appellant’s Request for Rehearing is granted the extent that we have in fact reviewed our findings but is denied as to making any change therein. 7Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
