Before MARKEY, Chief Judge, and RICH, BALDWIN, LANE, and MILLER, Judges.


LANE, Judge.

This appeal is from the decision of the Patent Office Board of Appeals rejecting claims 2, 4, 5, 8, 10 and 11 in appellant's application1 on a new ground pursuant to Patent Office Rule 196(b), 37 CFR 1.196(b). Claim 12 stands allowed. The main issue in this appeal is whether the Board of Appeals has statutory administrative jurisdiction to reject appealed claims on new grounds. We affirm on this issue.
