               Interference No. 101,981                                                                                             



               under                                                                                                                
               § 1.633(e) to declare an additional interference between Qadri’s                                                     
               divisional application and Beyers application in interference 27.                                                    
               There being no issue of interfering subject matter, we cannot render a judgment with respect to                      
               Qadri’s patent.  We therefore dismiss this motion.                                                                   
                                                             Summary                                                                


                       With respect to the motions, we hold the following:                                                          
               QM1 Dismissed                                                                                                        
               QM2 Dismissed                                                                                                        
               QM3 Dismissed                                                                                                        
               QM4 Dismissed                                                                                                        
               BeM1 Dismissed                                                                                                       
               BeM2 Dismissed                                                                                                       
               BeM3 Dismissed                                                                                                       
               BaM1 Denied                                                                                                          
               Bam2 Moot                                                                                                            
               BaM3 Moot                                                                                                            
               BaM3 Moot                                                                                                            
                                                           JUDGMENT                                                                 



               27 We also point out that, given Qadri’s notice that they would file a divisional application, if Beyers             
               had a concern about the potential of starting another interference, as they said they had (paper no.                 
               245, p. 3), it was incumbent on Beyers to take steps to file a motion requesting the declaration of an               
               additional interference under § 1.633(e).  Since no such steps were taken, this failure to act may                   
               raise an issue of estoppel.                                                                                          
                                                                 84
