›FIG. 1 is a rear, top, right perspective…

FIG. 1 is a rear, top, right perspective view of a case for a smart phone showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a rear, top, left perspective view of the case of FIG. 1 ;

FIG. 3 is a front, top, left perspective view of the case of FIG. 1 ;

FIG. 4 is a front, top, left perspective view of the case of FIG. 1 showing the interior features of the case in broken lines;

FIG. 5 is a front elevation view of the case of FIG. 1 ;

FIG. 6 is a rear elevation view of the case of FIG. 1 ;

FIG. 7 is a top plan view of the case of FIG. 1 ;

FIG. 8 is a bottom plan view of the case of FIG. 1 ;

FIG. 9 is a left side elevation view of the case of FIG. 1 ; and,

FIG. 10 is a right side elevation view of the case of FIG. 1 .

The stipple shading and the straight line shading illustrate a contrasting appearance. The broken lines immediately adjacent the stippled surfaces represent bounds of the claimed design. All other broken lines depict unclaimed environment and unclaimed features of the case. The interior of the case, shown as unshaded surfaces in FIGS. 3 , 4 , and 5 , and the broken lines throughout the figures form no part of the claimed design.
