`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 90.2(a), notice is hereby given that Petitioner Talari
`

`
`Federal Circuit from the November 1, 2017, Final Written Decision (Paper No. 32)

`
`On December 1, 2017, Petitioner filed a timely Request For Rehearing under

`decision denying Petitioner’s Request For Rehearing (Paper No. 36).
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 90.2(a)(3)(ii), Petitioner states that
`
`anticipated issues on appeal include, but are not limited to:
`
`(1) Whether the Board erred when it determined that claim 19 of U.S. Patent
`
`No. 6,775,235 B2 was not shown by a preponderance of the evidence to be
`
`unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. § 102 by U.S. Patent No. 6,628,617 B1 (“Karol,” Ex.
`
`1006);
`
`(2) Whether the Board erred when it determined that claim 19 of U.S. Patent
`
`No. 6,775,235 B2 was not shown by a preponderance of the evidence to be
`
`unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. § 103 by Karol;
`
`(3) Whether the Board erred when it determined that claim 19 of U.S. Patent
`
`No. 6,775,235 B2 was not shown by a preponderance of the evidence to be
`
`unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. § 103 by the combination of Karol and William
