dissenting.
I disagree with the majority’s view that State Line properly served its objection on Ms. Jorgenson in this case. I concur with Parts I-IV, and approximately the first half of Part V. I disagree with the majority’s views expressed in the last four paragraphs of subpart A of part V, and with subparts B and C.
I. Statutory Framework — § 502
Analysis of the law governing an objection to claim begins with § 502, which provides in relevant part:
(a) A claim ... proof of which is filed under section 501 of this title, is deemed allowed, unless a party in interest ... objects.
(b) ... [I]f such objection to a claim is made, the court, after notice and a hearing, shall determine the amount of such claim ....
It is uncontested that, as debtor in possession, State Line is a qualified party in interest, and that it filed an objection to Ms. Jorgenson’s claim.
II. Applicable Bankruptcy Rules
Three bankruptcy rules, adopted pursuant to the foregoing statute (inter alia) are at issue in this litigation: Rules 3007, 7004 and 9014.
A. Rule 9014
It is common ground that the filing of a claim objection commences a contested matter, and that Rule 9014 applies to claim objections. Rule 9014 provides in relevant part:
(a) Motion. In a contested matter not otherwise governed by these rules, relief shall be requested by motion, and reasonable notice and opportunity for hearing shall be afforded the party against whom relief is sought....
(b) Service. The motion shall be served in the manner provided for service of a summons and complaint by Rule 7004.
Rule 9014 goes on to provide that a number of specified rules for adversary proceedings (the rules in Part VII of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure) apply to contested matters (except as the *715court may otherwise order), and to provide for the attendance and testimony of witnesses.
Rule 9014(a) provides that it is not applicable if the contested matter is “otherwise governed by these rules .... ” The majority holds (correctly, in my opinion) that objections to claims are “otherwise governed” by the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, and specifically by Rule 3007. However, I differ with the majority on the extent to which objections to claims are so “otherwise governed.”
Rule 9014(a), as I read it, provides the applicable rule for two subjects arising in contested matters: the form that the request for relief must take (a motion), and the nature of notice to the opponent (“reasonable notice and opportunity for hearing”). These are the matters that, in my view, are “otherwise governed” by Rule 3007. Thus, for a claim objection, the form of a claim objection and the nature of notice to the opponent are governed by Rule 3007.
B. Rule 3007
Rule 3007 provides in relevant part:
An objection to the allowance of a claim shall be in writing and filed. A copy of the objection with notice of the hearing thereon shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to the claimant ... at least 30 days prior to the hearing.
This rule provides that the proper pleading is an objection rather than a motion. My disagreement with the majority concerns whether this rule also provides how a claim objection should be served.
C. Relationship between Rules 9014 and 3007
The majority and I part company on the applicability of Rule 9014(b) to claims objections. The “not otherwise governed” language is contained only in subpart (a). It is not contained in subpart (b), and there is no grammatical construction that makes it clearly apply to subpart (b). Furthermore, in my view, the “otherwise governed” language does not apply to the remaining subparts of Rule 9014.
1. Levoy
This panel does not write on a blank slate on the subject of the relationship between Rule 9014 and Rule 3007. In my view, this issue is governed by United States v. Levoy (In re Levoy), 182 B.R. 827 (9th Cir. BAP 1995), where the IRS contended that service of a claim objection must satisfy the requirements of Rule 7004, while the debtor contended that she was not required to satisfy the formalities of that rule. In holding in favor of the IRS, we stated:
The parties disagree as to the type of notice required under Rule 3007. The United States argued that Fed. R.Bankr.P. 7004 applies, while Debtors argued that ... the United States was not required to be served with a summons or other pleading. We do not find merit in Debtors’ argument and agree that the position of the United States expresses the correct, majority viewpoint on this issue.
Fed.R.Bankr.P. 3007 does not provide the manner for service of the objection to a proof of claim. However, the rule’s Advisory Committee Note states: “The contested matter initiated by an objection to a claim is governed by rule 9014 .... ” Fed.R.Bankr.P. 9014, which pertains to contested matters, in turn, makes applicable the service provisions of Fed.R.Bankr.7004....
Thus, we hold that Fed.R.Bankr.P. 9014 applies to objections to claims.
Id. at 833-34. Having found that Rule 7004 must be satisfied for the service of a claim objection, we found in Levoy that the *716debtor had met the rule’s requirements in its service on the United States on behalf of the IRS.6
In my view, we are bound by Levoy’s holding. See, e.g., Fjeldsted v. Lien (In re Fjeldsted), 293 B.R. 12, 15 (9th Cir. BAP 2003) (holding that the Bankruptcy Appellate Panel is bound by its previous decisions).
The majority does not distinguish the holding in Levoy. Instead, it takes the position that this ruling in Levoy does not constitute binding precedent. In support of this view, the majority erroneously relies on United States v. Johnson, 256 F.3d 895, 915-16 (9th Cir.2001), for authority on what constitutes binding precedent. This reliance is unjustified because the paragraph quoted by the majority as the rule on binding precedent comes from the dissent by Judge Kozinski, which is joined by only three other members of the eleven-judge en banc panel.7 The majority in that case did not reach the issue of what constitutes binding precedent. The language on which the majority here relies is thus a dissenting view, which has never been adopted either by the Ninth Circuit or this panel.
The actual Ninth Circuit law on what constitutes binding precedent is the following:
where a panel confronts an issue germane to the eventual resolution of the case, and resolves it after reasoned consideration in a published opinion, that ruling becomes the law of the circuit, regardless of whether doing so is necessary in some strict logical sense.
Miranda B. v. Kitzhaber, 328 F.3d 1181, 1186 (9th Cir.2003).
Under the Miranda B. standard, Levoy must control this issue of proper service of a claim objection. The panel in Levoy confronted the issue of whether Rule 3007 or Rule 7004 (by way of Rule 9014) governs the service of a claim objection, devoted five paragraphs to its analysis, and resolved the issue after reasoned consideration. This clearly satisfies the Miranda B. standard, and makes Levoy binding precedent on this issue. The majority cannot evade this holding by casting aspersions on the reasoning in the decision. This is precisely what binding precedent prohibits.
Even assuming that the language that the majority here quotes from Johnson properly states Ninth Circuit law on binding precedent, the majority decision in this case to reject the Levoy precedent cannot be sustained. The majority dismisses the Levoy holding, that service of a claim objection is governed by Rule 7004, as an “offhand statement,” that is “almost an assumption,” and thus not entitled to prec-edential weight. I cannot agree. This statement was not made “casually and without analysis,” or “in passing without due consideration of the alternatives,” or “merely a prelude to another legal issue that commands the panel’s full attention .... ” The issue before this panel was clearly litigated fully in Levoy. This holding is one of the central decisions in the appellate decision. It clearly is not an occasion where the panel “did not make a deliberate decision to adopt the rule of law *717it announced.” I find five paragraphs devoted exclusively to this subject.
I disagree with the majority statement that “there is no discussion of the notice language of Rule 3007” in Levoy. The discussion that I quote supra is clearly about the language and substance of the notice language in this rule. Thus, even under the Johnson language on which the majority relies, Levoy constitutes binding precedent.
2. Analysis Supporting Levoy
The only fault that the majority can properly find with Levoy, in my view, is that the Levoy panel did not articulate the grounds for its decision in as much detail as the majority now prefers. Not even Johnson supports disregarding the Levoy rule on these grounds.
Nonetheless, the Levoy rule, in my view, is based on solid grounds. The more complete analysis is that Rule 7004 substitutes for Rule 9014(a) pursuant to the “otherwise governed” language of Rule 9014(a), but it does not affect the remainder of Rule 9014. Three separate considerations support this analysis.
First, the “otherwise governed” language is contained only in Rule 9014(a), and it is missing from the rest of the rule. If the drafters of Rule 9014 had intended Rule 3007 to substitute for both subparts (a) and (b), they would have drafted it as follows:
(a) Motion. In a contested matter not otherwise governed by these rules:
(1) relief shall be requested by motion etc.;
(2) the motion shall be served in the manner provided for service of summons and complaint by Rule 7004 etc.
After this text, (relettered) subparts (c), (d) and (e) would follow.
This language would have accomplished what the majority finds that Rule 3007 accomplishes. But the rule drafters did not write this language into the rule. While this analysis of the form of the rule alone may not carry the day,8 I believe that it deserves substantial weight.
Second, there is nothing in Rule 3007 that parallels the provisions following paragraph (a) in Rule 9014. The contents of Rule 3007 are parallel to the contents of Rule 9014(a) only. Where Rule 9014(a) provides that relief must be requested by motion, Rule 3007 provides that an objection to the allowance of a claim “shall be in writing and filed.” Where Rule 9014(a) provides that, “reasonable notice and opportunity for hearing shall be afforded the party against whom relief is sought,” Rule 3007 provides, “a copy of the objection with notice of the hearing thereon shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to the claimant .... ”
In these respects, the contents of Rule 3007 and Rule 9014(a) are exactly parallel. The difference is solely that Rule 3007 is more specific in two respects: (1) it provides for an actual hearing rather than an opportunity for a hearing, and (2) instead of vaguely providing for “reasonable notice,” it specifies that a copy of the objection must be delivered. This parallel structure of the language supports the construction that Rule 3007 substitutes only for Rule 9014(a), and not the remaining provisions of Rule 9014.
*718Third, there is no doubt that subparts (c), (d) and (e) of Rule 9014 apply to contested matters arising from claim objections. See, e.g., 9 Collier on Bankruptcy ¶ 3007.01[1] (Alan N. Resnick & Henry J. Sommer eds., 15th ed.2004) (subpart (c) applies to claim objections). Rule 9014(c) specifies that a number of rules in Part VII apply to contested matters, including the rules providing for pleading special matters (Rule 7009), joinder of parties (Rule 7021), civil discovery (Rules 7026 and 7028-7037), findings by the court (Rule 7052), judgments, including summary judgment (Rules 7054-7056), and execution on judgments (Rule 7069). These rules lie at the core of litigation procedures for bankruptcy claim objections. Thus the scope of the “otherwise governed” language of Rule 9014(a) clearly does not extend to all of Rule 9014.
The majority makes one additional argument to bring Rule 9014(b) within the scope of the “otherwise governed” language of Rule 9014(a). It points out that Rule 9014(b) provides for service of “the motion,” which can only refer to motions under Rule 9014(a), and not the “otherwise governed” contested matters (including claim objections). Under this analysis, to apply to proceedings “otherwise governed,” Rule 9014(b) would have to state something like, “the motion or other request for relief.” There is some force to this argument. However, in my view, it does not carry the day. One could easily imply the “or other request for relief’ in Rule 9014(b), on the grounds that expressing it in full would be too cumbersome, and courts should be sensible in their application of the rules. The majority’s argument on this point has some weight, in my view, and might carry the day (although I would consider it a close question) in the absence of Levoy. However, given the controlling precedent of Levoy, in my view this analysis is foreclosed.
Thus, consistent with the mandate of Levoy, service of an objection to claim must be' accomplished pursuant to Rule 9014(b), which requires that it be served in accordance with the requirements of Rule 7004.
D. Service on an Agent
Rule 3007 makes no mention of service of a claim objection on an agent in place of service directly on the creditor. Assuming that service on an agent for a creditor is sufficient to satisfy the requirements of Rule 9014(b) and Rule 3007, I disagree with the majority that service in this case was sufficient.
1. Rule 3007
If Rule 3007 governs the service of a claim objection, as the majority holds, service on an agent for the claimant (such as the legal counsel served in this case) is not sufficient, in my view.
a. Individual Service on the Claimant Herself
Assuming that Rule 3007 governs the giving of notice of an objection to a claim (a view that I do not share, as explained above), it is clear to me that State Line did not comply with the requirements of Rule 3007 in giving notice of the objection.
Rule 3007 requires that a copy of the objection “shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to the claimant ....” It is uncontested that State Line never delivered a copy of the objection (by mail or otherwise) to Ms. Jorgenson. It only contends that it delivered the copy to her attorney. Rule 3007 contains no authority for service on an attorney or other agent of the claimant.
Unlike Rule 3007, Rule 7004 authorizes service on an agent. At the same time, it clearly distinguishes between service upon *719a party and service upon an agent. Rule 7004(b)(1) authorizes service by mail on an individual if it is sent to one of two places: where the individual regularly conducts a business or profession, or to the individual’s dwelling house or usual place of abode.
Rule 7004(b)(8) authorizes service by mail on an agent authorized by appointment or by law to receive service of process, and its requirements differ from those for service on an individual. The requirements for service on the agent mirror those for service on an individual (mail sent to the agent’s business or home address). However, in addition to service on the agent, Rule 7004(b)(8) requires service of the papers on the principal also (as required by Rule 7004(b)(1), in the case of an individual), if the authorization to receive service of process so requires. There is no similar provision in Rule 3007.
I conclude that if, as the majority holds, service of a claim objection is governed by Rule 3007 and not by Rule 9014, the service must be made on the claimant and cannot be made on an agent (including the claimant’s counsel).
b. Official Form B10
Commendably, the majority does not turn to Rule 9014 to authorize service of a claim objection through service on the claimant’s agent. Instead, the majority finds refuge in Official Form B10 (“Form B10”) and finds that, in this case, Form B10 authorized service on the claimant through her counsel. The majority places much weight on the box on the claim form specifying, “Name and address where notices should be sent.” In my view, this box cannot carry this weight.
Notice and service are very different. See In re Association of Volleyball Professionals, 256 B.R. 313, 319-20 (Bankr.C.D.Cal.2000). The provisions for giving notice apply in situations that are very different from those where service is required.
The giving of notice is generally governed by Rule 2002. Service of process, in contrast, is governed by Rule 7004. These issues are placed in different rules because they serve very different functions in the bankruptcy process. See Association of Volleyball Professionals, 256 B.R. at 319-20; Boykin v. Marriott Int’l, Inc. (In re Boykin), 246 B.R. 825 (Bankr.E.D.Va.2000).
Notice in a bankruptcy case is required in a wide variety of situations. There are many actions that may be taken in a bankruptcy case that affect the general administration of the case and all creditors generally, but none specifically. Generally, these matters only require general notice to creditors. See Association of Volleyball Professionals, 256 B.R. at 319-20; Boykin, 246 B.R. at 828. The general notice for many such actions is governed by Rule 2002, including the meeting of creditors (Rule 2002(a)(1)), the proposed use or sale of property outside the ordinary course of business (Rule 2002(a)(2)), a hearing for approval of a compromise or settlement (Rule 2002(a)(3)), a dismissal or conversion hearing (Rule 2002(a)(4)), a fee request exceeding $1,000 (Rule 2002(a)(6)), a disclosure statement hearing (Rule 2002(b)), and a plan confirmation hearing (Rule 2002(b)). Other rules (including Rule 3007, in my view) provide for notice of other kinds of actions. For a typical creditor, most of these events may be of little or no interest. The address for giving notice, as provided in Form B10, is for giving notice of the type contemplated in Rule 2002 and the other rules providing for creditor notice.
One purpose of filing a claim is to notify the parties in interest that the claimant is in fact a creditor in the case. Apart from *720the proof of claim, these parties may be altogether unaware of the claimant. It follows from the filing of the claim that the claimant is entitled to notice of the many different kinds of activities in the case. Thus it is appropriate that the proof of claim include an address for giving such notice.
In contrast to matters where notice to creditors generally is sufficient, the bankruptcy rules recognize that a particular creditor is entitled to a different quality of notice when that creditor’s rights become an issue in a bankruptcy case. See Boykin, 246 B.R. at 829. For example, such specific rights are involved in a claim objection or a motion to sell property free and clear of a creditor’s lien. Service pursuant to the requirements of Rule 7004 is required before an estate may take action of this kind. See id.
An objection to the creditor’s claim falls in this category, because the objection is vitally important to the particular creditor. If the objection is successful, the creditor loses any right to receive a dividend from the estate and loses its status in the case. In addition, the objection may include a counterclaim, pursuant to which the creditor may lose a lawsuit if the creditor does not respond appropriately. Mere notice, of the sort appropriate for the many other types of bankruptcy events in which the creditor may have little interest, does not suffice to alert a creditor to this consequence. For this reason, the bankruptcy rules require service of a claim objection on a creditor of the type required for a summons and complaint before action can be taken on the objection (and especially on an attached counterclaim), so that it will be brought to the attention of the appropriate personnel of the creditor who are trained to deal with such legal problems. This duty does not fall on a clerk who puts his or her name in the box of Form BIO for notice purposes. See id. at 828.
State Line notably had no burden in finding Ms. Jorgenson’s address: she put it next to her signature on each proof of claim. Nonetheless, State Line failed to send the claim objections to her at the stated address.
c. Function of Rule 3007 Notice
The function of the Rule 3007 notice is not difficult to divine. The notice provided there is “notice of the hearing” on the claim objection.
Rule 3007, as I understand it, envisages a three-step process: filing the claim, filing and serving the objection, and subsequent court proceedings thereon. This corresponds, in a civil lawsuit, to the filing of a complaint, the filing and service of an answer, and giving notice of subsequent court hearings on the dispute. The notice required in Rule 3007 is to inform the creditor of the time and place for the commencement of the subsequent court hearings. It is not a substitute for service of the claim objection (which is the functional equivalent of an answer in a civil lawsuit).
2. Rule 7004
Because Rule 7004 applies to the service of a claim objection, in my view, I must address whether service of the claim on Ms. Jorgenson’s attorney satisfied the requirements of that rule.
The authority of an agent to accept service under Rule 7004 may be either express or implied. Service on an attorney is px-oper when the client’s actions indicate that the client has expressly or impliedly delegated such authority to the attorney. See Rubin v. Pringle (In re Focus Media), 387 F.3d 1077, 1082 (9th Cir.2004), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 125 S.Ct. 1674, 161 L.Ed.2d 482 (2005). Service on counsel is *721sufficient to satisfy the requirements of Rule 3007 only if counsel expressly represents the creditor for the purpose of service of process (which does not appear in this case) or has such authority by implication. Id. Neither applies in this case.
a. Express Representation for Service of Process
It is common ground that Ms. Jorgen-son’s attorney had no express authorization to accept service of process or service of the claims objections on her behalf, except to the extent that Form BIO may have granted him such authorization. In my view, the entry of the attorney’s name in the notice box of Form BIO was no more availing to appoint him as an express agent under Rule 7004 than it was under Rule 3007. Accordingly, I see no express authorization for counsel to receive service on Ms. Jorgenson’s behalf.
b. Implied Representation for Service of Process
In Focus Media, the Ninth Circuit found that a court may find implied authority to receive service of process in limited instances where the lawyer has repeatedly represented that client in the underlying bankruptcy case, and where the totality of the circumstances demonstrates the intent of the client to grant such implied authority. See 387 F.3d at 1079. I agree with the majority’s conclusion that implied agency is not seriously argued in this case, and that the facts do not support such a finding.
III. Due Process Problem
In addition to the service problem in this case, I also see a due process problem in the form of the papers that were served on Ms. Jorgenson’s attorney.
This appeal arises in six administratively consolidated chapter 11 cases for State Line Hotel, Inc. and related entities (hereinafter collectively “State Line”) filed in Reno, Nevada. This was apparently quite a large case, sufficiently large to bring in bankruptcy counsel from Los Angeles. It gave rise to hundreds of claims against the various debtors,9 and to many claims objections.
The proceedings below began with the filing of a voluminous document captioned, “Debtors’ Fourth Set of Objections to Claims; Memorandum of Points and Authorities; Declaration of Leon Flinders in Support Thereof.” The appellate record does not disclose the size of this document, because the excerpt of record includes only a few selected pages. However, from the pagination of the selected pages it is apparent that the document was more than 157 pages long, and included at least 27 exhibits.
Immediately below the caption is a list of the claim numbers for the twenty claims to which the objection applied. There is ordinarily no reason for a creditor to know the number assigned to the creditor’s proof of claim. Numbers are assigned by the court for docketing purposes when a claim is filed, and are not used for any other purpose. A creditor is normally not notified of the claim number at any point in the case. There is no evidence that either Ms. Jorgenson or her counsel received any notice of the numbers assigned to her claims. Apart from the claim numbers, there is no information on the first page of the document, or even in the several following pages, from which Ms. Jor-*722genson could determine that her two claims were a subject of this set of objections.
Indeed, in this voluminous document there are only two pages, page 16 and page 157, that appear to make any recognizable reference to Ms. Jorgenson’s two claims. Page 16 has a single paragraph (fifteen lines long) stating that nothing in the debtors’ books and records supports Ms. Jorgenson’s claim. Page 157 is a copy of one of her two proofs of claim.
Mullane v. Central Hanover Bank & Trust Co., 339 U.S. 306, 70 S.Ct. 652, 94 L.Ed. 865 (1950), is the leading case on due process in the bankruptcy context. Mullane teaches us that,
[a]n elementary and fundamental requirement of due process in any proceeding which is to be accorded finality is notice reasonably calculated, under all the circumstances, to apprise interested parties of the pendency of the action and afford them an opportunity to present their objections.
Id. at 314, 70 S.Ct. 652. Mullane requires not only that notice be adequately delivered, but also that it “be of such nature as reasonably to convey the required information .... ” Id. Mullane further states that, “[t]he means employed must be such as one desirous of actually informing the absentee might reasonably adopt to accomplish it.” Id. Finally, under Mullane, these issues are evaluated, for due process purposes, “with due regard for the practicalities and peculiarities of the case .... ” Id.
In my view, the claims objections here at issue fall fatally short of these requirements. If State Line had desired actually to inform Ms. Jorgenson that it was objecting to her claims, it would have put her name in the caption of the objection document, or somewhere else on the first page or two, to make sure that the document called to her attention the fact that it purported to affect her individual claims.
Instead, in my view, State Line made a deliberate effort to hide the identity of the claimants whose claims it was disputing. In this document of at least 157 pages, Ms. Jorgenson could find out that her claims were at issue only by looking at page 14 or page 157: no other page in the entire document would give her the slightest clue that it related to her claims.
Claims objections in large bankruptcy cases, like these cases, typically run to hundreds of pages and can sometimes be as thick as several telephone books. When nothing appears on the face of the claim objection to apprise a claimant that the debtor is objecting to that claimant’s claim, such as was the ease here, I believe that the objection fails to satisfy the Mullane requirement that service be reasonably calculated to “apprise interested parties of the pendency of the action.” Mullane, 339 U.S. at 314, 70 S.Ct. 652.
Given these undisputed facts, I would find that the fourth set of claims objections was not “reasonably calculated, under all the circumstances, to apprise [Ms. Jorgen-son or her counsel] of the pendency of [the claims objections] and to afford them an opportunity to present their objections,” as required by Mullane.
In large cases such as these, it may be convenient to group claim objections together for administrative convenience. Grouping objections together reduces the number of separate papers that counsel has to keep track of, that a court has to docket, that chambers staff is required to organize, and that the judge has to read. However, filing claims objections in a group does not excuse the objecting party from giving notice that is reasonably calculated to put each claimant on notice that *723the objection includes that claimant’s claim.
The typical procedure for giving such notice is to put the claimant’s name in the caption of the document. This procedure has the advantage that the claimant’s name also appears on the docket and can be found easily. Alternatively, it may be sufficient to put the names of numerous claimants below the caption or to provide a list of the claimants at issue immediately after the caption, perhaps on the second page of the document.
In my view, due process as articulated in Mullane requires sufficient information on or near the first page of the document to catch the attention of a particular claimant whose claim is put at issue. In my judgment, this set of claim objections falls far short of these due process requirements with respect to Ms. Jorgenson.
However, I give no weight to these due process considerations in my dissent herein because this issue was explicitly waived by counsel for Ms. Jorgenson on oral argument.
IV. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons I am persuaded that Rule 9014(b) applies to the service of a claim objection on a claimant. Because the requirements of Rule 9014(b) were not satisfied with respect to Ms. Jor-genson in this case, I respectfully dissent from the majority opinion.
. I note that I was the bankruptcy judge in the Levoy case, and this panel’s decision reversed my ruling on this issue.
. It is necessary to read the Johnson opinions carefully to determine what constitutes a majority holding. Its decision consists in a per curiam decision, followed by five opinions, none of which commanded a majority for its entirety. Three other judges joined in all of Judge Kozinski’s decision, and two more joined in parts of it. The language at issue is in section III(B), which commanded only four votes.
. Rule 9014 was a single paragraph until it was revised in 2002 and divided into subpara-graphs. In its prior iteration, the "not otherwise governed” language apparently applied to the language now contained in subpara-graph (b). The Advisory Committee Notes make no mention of an intention to make the language inapplicable to subparagraph (b). In consequence, I do not rely on the drafting alone in my analysis.
. The appellate record does not disclose the exact number of claims filed. However, the cover page for the set of objections involved in this appeal indicates that it applies to twenty claims bearing numbers from 21 to 362. I conclude that at least 362 claims (and perhaps many more) were filed in these cases.
