Gentry Gallery, Inc. v. Berkline Corp., 134 F.3d 1473, 1479 (Fed. Cir. 1998) (patent claims directed to a sectional sofa found invalid for violating the written description requirement because they did not limit the location of the reclining controls to the console area in direct conflict with the original disclosure, which identified the console as the only possible location of the controls).

In re Cohn, 438 F.2d 989, 999 (CCPA 1971) (“We might find appellant’s arguments to be convincing if the sole issue were whether the instant claims were adequately supported under the requirements of the first paragraph. However, we cannot even reach that issue since we are not satisfied that these claims comply with the second paragraph of §112.”); In re Hammack, 427 F.2d 1378, 1381 (CCPA 1970) (“[The examiner] seems to question whether certain claims, or certain recitations therein, are supported by the disclosure . . . Nevertheless, it is clear that the examiner and board considered all the claims to be indefinite and that they expressly relied only on the second paragraph of section 112 as grounds for rejection.”).
