MILLER, Judge.

This is an appeal from the decision of the Patent and Trademark Office Board of Patent Interferences ("board") awarding priority of the subject matter of count 2 to the party Allgeier and Gagneux ("Allgeier") based on its holding that counts 1 and 2, the only counts in interference, are patentably distinct.
