Appeal No. 2006-0587
Application No. 10/017,483
We need not further belabor the several deficiencies of the
examiner’s rejection. For any one of the multiple reasons
discussed above, it is apparent that the examiner has failed to
establish a prima facie case of obviousness with respect to the
subject matter defined by appealed independent claim 1. It
follows that we cannot sustain the examiner’s Section 103
rejection of claim 1 or of claims 2-7 and 9 which depend
therefrom as being unpatentable over Keller in view of Meltser.
The decision of the examiner is reversed.
