Appeal 2007-1629 Application 10/138,337 Here, to the extent that the Appellants have argued that the “cyclic . . . hydrocarbons” has other meanings (see Br. 7), we reject these meanings and interpret the phrase to mean aromatic and non-aromatic cyclic hydrocarbons. For the reasons discussed above, we conclude that the Examiner erred in rejecting Claims 1-13 and 17-19 as indefinite under 35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph. The rejection is REVERSED. dm NOVAK DRUCE DELUCA & QUIGG, LLP 1300 EYE STREET NW SUITE 1000 WEST TOWER WASHINGTON DC 20005 6Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6
