Appeal 2007-0295
Application 09/051,565
the Examiner’s factual findings and conclusion of law as stated in the
Answer 6-7.
For the foregoing reasons and those stated in the Answer, we
determine that a prima facie case of obviousness has been established by the
reference evidence. Based on the totality of the record, including due
consideration of Appellant’s arguments, we determine that the
preponderance of the evidence weighs most heavily in favor of obviousness
within the meaning of § 103(a). Therefore, we affirm the sole rejection on
appeal.
The decision of the Examiner is affirmed.
No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with
this appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a)(1)(iv)(2006).
AFFIRMED
