In re Forsyth

Opinion of the Court

VAN ORSDEL, Associate Justice.

Appellant was denied a .patent on a claim for an ornamental design for a disk wheel, and accordingly this appeal was taken.

We deem it unnecessary to consider the case at length, as we are clearly of the opinion that, if appellant’s design would be patentable, in the absence of anticipation by the disclosures of the prior art, he is completely barred by existing patents cited in the decisions of the tribunals below.

The decision of the Commissioner is affirmed:
