`
`JUDGMENT
`Termination of the Proceeding
` 37 C.F.R. § 42.73
`
`
`
`On November 21, 2014, the parties filed a joint motion to terminate this
`proceeding, along with a true copy of their written agreement, made in connection
`with the termination of the instant proceeding, in accordance with 35 U.S.C.
`
`
`
`IPR2014-00397 (Patent 6,833,686 B2)
`IPR2014-00400 (Patent 6,034,623)
`
` §
`
` 317(b) and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74(b). The parties also filed a joint request to have
`their agreement treated as confidential business information under 35 U.S.C.
`§ 317(b) and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74(c). See, e.g., IPR2014-00397 (Papers 16, 17;
`Ex. 2005). The joint motions request termination of the proceedings and further
`explain that the related litigation has been dismissed without prejudice.
`On July 3, 2014, we instituted trial for each case. At this juncture of the
`proceeding, the Board does not have before it full briefing on the trial issues and
`the Board has not entered a final decision.
`Based on the facts of these cases, it is appropriate to enter judgment1 without
`rendering a final written decision. See 35 U.S.C. § 317(a); 37 C.F.R. § 42.72.
`It is
`ORDERED that the parties’ joint request that the agreement be treated as
`business confidential information, to be kept separate from the patent file is
`granted;
`FURTHER ORDERED that the joint motions to terminate the proceedings
`are granted; and
`FURTHER ORDERED that the proceedings are terminated.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1 A judgment means a final written decision by the Board, or a termination of a
`proceeding. 37 C.F.R. § 42.2.
