Appeal No. 2006-1085 Application No. 10/392,209 For the above reasons, we will not sustain the examiner’s rejection of claims 1, 3 and 4 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over Karashima and John. Since the § 103 rejection before us on appeal has not been sustained, it follows that the decision of the examiner is reversed. REVERSED ) CHARLES E.
