`
`
`Patent Owner OpenTV, Inc. hereby provides notice that it appeals to the United
`
`States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit from the Final Written Decision
`
`entered September 26, 2016 (Paper 31) and from all underlying orders, decisions,
`
`rulings, and opinions regarding U.S. Patent No. 7,900,229 B2 (“the ’229 patent”)
`
`in Inter Partes Review No. IPR2015-01031.
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 90.2(a)(3)(ii), the issues on appeal include,
`
`but are not limited to, the Board’s determination that claims 14-16, 19, 21, 26, 28,
`
`and 30 of the ‘229 patent are unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. § 102(a) as anticipated
`
`by Tomioka, including and without limitation, the Board’s violation of the
`
`Administrative Procedures Act through its failure to timely inform Patent Owner of
`
`the matters of fact and law asserted, give Patent Owner opportunity for the
`
`submission of facts and arguments and hearing and decision on notice, and permit
`
`Patent Owner to submit rebuttal evidence and to conduct cross-examination as may
`
`be required for a full and true disclosure of the facts; the Board’s reliance on
`
`evidence, arguments, and/or theories not articulated at all and/or with particularity
`
`until after Patent Owner filed its Patent Owner’s Response (Paper 14); and any
`
`finding or determination supporting or relating to these issues, as well as all other
`
`issues decided adversely to Open TV, Inc., in any order, decision, ruling, or
`
`opinion by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board in this Inter Partes Review.
