`
`On June 14, 2018, Paper 26, titled “Final Written Decision,” was
`mistakenly entered in this proceeding. That paper was expunged as soon as
`the mistake was realized and the parties were notified via an email
`correspondence (Ex. 3001) that it was the result of a mistaken entry.
`Accordingly, that paper did not constitute a final agency decision under 35
`U.S.C. § 318 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.73. A Final Written Decision that
`constitutes a final agency decision under 35 U.S.C. § 318 and 37 C.F.R.
`§ 42.73 will issue in due course.
`We regret any inconvenience this may have caused.
