`
`
`On March 28, 2018, we received notice that the U.S. Court of Appeals
`for the Federal Circuit granted Patent Owners’ motion before that court to
`stay these proceedings pending appeal. Ex. 3003 (“Order”). The court’s
`Order stated that “Appellants’ motion for a stay is granted until the day after
`oral argument in June 2018,” that “it appears that the appeals divested the
`Board of jurisdiction over the aspects of the case on appeal,” and that “the
`Board may not proceed until granted leave by this court.” Order, 2.
`Accordingly, based on the foregoing, it is:
`ORDERED that the oral hearing scheduled for April 3, 2018 is
`cancelled; and
`FURTHER ORDERED that these proceedings are stayed and no final
`written decisions will issue until the Federal Circuit grants the Board leave
`to proceed.
