RE: [PIUG List] A Question relating to Replying to Office Actions

Bhaskar - That is a legal question. The answer depends upon the facts.
However, I have used the prosecution history of a reference in such
situations. Thanks, RICK

Subject: [PIUG List] A Question relating to Replying to Office Actions


Dear All,
 
I will be highly obliged if any one could please tell me, that whether
can we use the prosecution history of the reference cited by Examiner,
to show distinctness between our invention and the reference, and how
much weight does the argument based on prosecution history of the
reference holds.
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Thanks and regards,
Bhaskar
