`
`BEFORE THE PATENT TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD
`
`____________
`
`NEW BAY CAPITAL, LLC,
`Petitioner,
`v.
`
`VIRNETX, INC.
`Patent Owner.
`____________
`
`Case IPR2013-00375
`Patent 6,502,135
`____________
`
`
`
`UNOPPOSED MOTION TO TERMINATE
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §42.73(b)(4) and the Board’s Order of November 1,
`
`2013, Petitioner New Bay Capital, LLC (“New Bay”) moves to terminate the
`
`present inter partes review proceeding. Termination is appropriate because New
`
`Bay is abandoning this contest, VirnetX does not oppose and a trial has not been
`
`instituted.
`
`The Board makes reference to estoppel in discussing 35 U.S.C. §325(d).
`
`This statute merely notes that “the Director may take into account whether, and
`
`reject the petition or request because, the same or substantially the same…” As for
`
`estoppel as set forth in 35 U.S.C. §315(e), said estoppel does not attach because
`
`there will not be a final written decision under 35 U.S.C. §318(a).
`
`For the foregoing reasons, termination is respectfully requested.
`
`
`
`Dated: November 6, 2013 Respectfully submitted,
`
`
