`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Case No. IPR2016-00094
`
`Petitioner Micron Technology, Inc. (“Petitioner”) requests a refund of post-
`
`
`
`
`
`institution fees in the amount of $14,000.00.
`
`
`
`On October 26, 2015, Petitioner filed a Petition for Inter Partes Review of
`
`U.S. Patent No. 5,894,441. As required by 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), Petitioner
`
`deposited $23,000.00 with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) at the
`
`time of filing the Petition to cover associated fees. Petitioner’s payment consisted
`
`of $9,000.00 in fees associated with the request for Inter Partes Review, and a
`
`further $14,000.00 in post-institution fees.
`
`
`
`On April 12, 2016, the Board issued a Decision Denying Institution of Inter
`
`Partes Review (Paper No. 8). Inter Partes Review was thus not instituted. On
`
`June 2, 2016, the Board issued a Decision Denying Petitioner’s Request for
`
`Rehearing (Paper No. 10). Accordingly, Petitioner requests a refund of the post-
`
`institution fees paid to the USPTO in connection with this proceeding, totaling
`
`$14,000.00, to be paid to deposit account 506499 (referencing Attorney Docket
`
`
`
`No. 63509.0035).
