`
`On April 9, 2014, Petitioner filed a petition for inter partes review of
`
`U.S. Patent No. 6,805,779 and paid the USPTO a total of $23,800 at the
`
`time of filing this petition, which included a $9,800 payment for the inter
`
`partes review request fee and a $14,000 payment for the post-institution fee
`
`required by 37 C.F.R. §42.15(a)(1)-(2). The filed inter partes review
`
`petition was granted a filing date on April 14, 2014. (Paper No. 4). The
`
`parties subsequently reached a settlement and filed a joint motion to
`
`terminate the proceedings on September 12, 2014. On September 15, 2014,
`
`the Board entered a Judgment, Termination of the Proceeding under 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 42.73 (Paper No. 9) in which the Board granted the parties' joint motion to
`
`terminate the proceeding and thereby terminated the proceeding. The Board
`
`terminated the proceeding before institution of the inter partes review and the
`
`petition to institute the inter partes review was filed on April 9, 2014. The
`
`Petitioner is entitled to request a refund of the post-institution fee that was
`
`previously paid and is entitled to this refund. See e.g., 78 FR 4233 (January
`
`18, 2013) available at http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-01-
`
`18/pdf/2013-00819.pdf (stating that "The entire post-institution fee would be
`
`returned to the petitioner if the Office does not institute a review."); Patent
