`
`DECISION
`Motion for Joinder
`37 C.F.R. § 42.122
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2014-01089
`Patent 6,806,652 B1
`
`
`GLOBALFOUNDRIES U.S., Inc., GLOBALFOUNDRIES Dresden
`
`Module One LLC & Co. KG, and GLOBALFOUNDRIES Dresden Module
`
`Two LLC & Co. KG (collectively, “GLOBALFOUNDRIES”) filed a
`
`Revised Petition in the above-identified inter partes review challenging U.S.
`
`Patent No. 6,806,652 B1 (Ex. 1201, “the ’652 patent”) owned by Zond, LLC
`
`(“Zond”). Paper 4. Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.122(b),
`
`GLOBALFOUNDRIES also filed a Motion for Joinder, seeking to join its
`
`proceeding with a proceeding filed by Intel Corporation (“Intel”)—
`
`specifically, joining IPR2014-01089 with IPR2014-00923. Paper 8.
`
`On September 12, 2014, however, Intel and Zond filed a Joint Motion
`
`to Terminate and a true copy of their Written Settlement Agreement, made
`
`in connection with the termination, in accordance with 35 U.S.C. § 317(b)
`
`and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74(b), in each of Intel’s Proceedings that involved the
`
`’652 patent. See, e.g., IPR2014-00843, Paper 7, Ex. 1115; IPR2014-00923,
`
`Paper 7; IPR2014-00945, Paper 7. Upon consideration, we terminated those
`
`Intel Proceedings and entered Judgment in each Intel Proceeding. See
`
`IPR2014-00843, Paper 8; IPR2014-00923, Paper 8; IPR2014-00945,
`
`Paper 8.
`
`The termination of Intel’s Proceedings renders
`
`GLOBALFOUNDRIES’s Motion for Joinder moot. Although in our
`
`previous Order, we authorized GLOBALFOUNDRIES to file a revised
`
`Motion for Joinder, GLOBALFOUNDRIES did not file such a Motion
`
`within the time period set forth in the Order.
`
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is hereby
`
`ORDERED that the Motion for Joinder filed in the above-identified
`
`GLOBALFOUNDRIES Proceeding is dismissed as moot.
