`ORDER
`Conduct of the Proceeding
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Case IPR2013-00302
`Patent 7,986,426 B1
`
`
`
`Patent Owner filed a Notice of Withdrawal of Motion to Amend (Paper 37),
`
`seeking to withdraw its prior Motion to Amend (Paper 29). Patent Owner is not
`required to file a Motion to Amend, and Petitioners have not yet filed an opposition
`thereto. See 37 C.F.R. § 42.121 (a) (“A patent owner may file one motion to
`amend a patent . . . .”). Accordingly, we find it appropriate to grant the
`withdrawal.
`
`It is hereby ORDERED that Patent Owner’s Motion to Amend is withdrawn.
`
