Appeal No. 2007-0384 Application No. 09/681,784 We conclude that the Examiner has set forth a prima facie case that claim 12 would have been obvious over Saba’s software in view of Tuttle, which Appellant has not rebutted. We therefore affirm the rejection of claim 12 under 35 U.S.C. § 103. Claims 11 and 14 fall with claim 12. SUMMARY The Examiner’s position is supported by the preponderance of the evidence of record. We therefore affirm the rejection of claims 1-20 under 35 U.S.C. § 103. No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a).
