Appeal No. 2006-0547
Application No. 10/276,568
prima facie case of anticipation and appellant has not shown error therein. Therefore,
we will sustain the rejection of independent claim 12 and its dependent claims 13, 15,
and 19-22.
35 U.S.C. § 103
Additionally, appellant has elected to group all dependent claims as standing or
falling with claim 12 and not present separate argument to the rejection under 35
U.S.C. § 103. Therefore, we sustain dependent claims 14 and 16-18 also.
CONCLUSION
To summarize, the decision of the examiner to reject claims 12, 13, 15, and 19-
22 under 35 U.S.C. § 102 is AFFIRMED, and the decision of the examiner to reject
claims 14 and 16-18 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is AFFIRMED.
