`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to the Board’s email authorization of December 29, 2015, and in
`
`accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 1.4(d)(2)(i), Patent Owner Trading Technologies
`

`
`of Patent Owner’s Preliminary Response (Paper No. 15) filed on the PRPS on
`
`December 21, 2015, to counsel for Petitioners, IBG, LLC, Interactive Brokers

`
`
`
`alternative that the proceedings were designed to provide. Supra, IV.
`
`XII. CONCLUSION
`In view of the foregoing, the Board should deny the petition (1) because it is
`
`one in a series of filings that misuse the CBM review process; (2) because the
`
`claims recite an inventive GUI improvement putting the ’132 patent outside the
`
`scope of CBM review; and (3) because Petitioners not demonstrated any
`
`patentability problem under 35 U.S.C. §§ 101 or 103.19
`
`
`Dated: December 21, 2015

`Reg. No. 63,558
`
`
`
`
`
`
`19 While the Board previously instituted a proceeding on this patent, the decision
`
`was non-final and lacked the benefit of the evidence and arguments now presented.
