We disagree that the claims, when properly construed, are indefinite. That is because the Examiner wrongfully assumes that claim 1 and the dependent claims are mutually exclusive. At the outset, we note that each claim is presumptively different in scope and a dependent claim is “presumed to be narrower” in scope than the independent claim from which it depends. Power Probe Group, Inc. v. Innova Electronics Corp., 2022 WL 1089910 at *3 (Fed. Cir. Apr. 12, 2022) (citing Trustees of Columbia Univ. in City of New York v. Symantec Corp., 811 F.3d 1359, 1370 (Fed. Cir. 2016)). Thus, it follows that, claim 1 cannot be read to exclude the configuration of claim 7—namely, that the sequencing station moves items “at least partially in groups”—“in the absence of other evidence rebutting the presumption.” Id.
