DECISION ON APPEAL
This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134(a) from the examiner's
final rejection of claims 35, 36, and 38-56. Claim 37 is objected to as being
dependent upon a rejected base claim, but is indicated as being allowable if
rewritten in independent form. Claims 1-34 have been canceled.
We reverse the rejections and remand the application to the examiner for
further consideration of the claims pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 41.50(a)(1).
