`Patent 7,126,174 B1
`
`
`
`MOTION FOR REFUND OF POST-INSTITUTION FEE
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Before JUSTIN T. ARBES, MICHAEL J. FITZPATRICK, and
`
`JENNIFER MEYER CHAGNON, Administrative Patent Judges

`Submitted Electronically via the Patent Review Processing System
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Petitioner hereby requests a refund of the $14,000 for the post-institution fee
`
`that was previously paid on February 3, 2017. Petitioner filed a petition for inter
`
`partes review of U.S. Patent No. 7,126,174 on February 3, 2017, and paid the
`
`USPTO $23,000 on that date which includes the $9,000 inter partes review request
`
`fee and the $14,000 post-institution fee, as required by 37 C.F.R.
`
`§42.15(a).
`
`
`
`On March 2, 2017, Petitioner filed an Unopposed Motion To Dismiss
`
`Petition For Inter Partes Review, (Paper No. 11). On March 10, 2017, the Board
`
`granted the motion and dismissed the petition, thereby terminating the proceeding.
`
`(Paper No. 12). Since this case was in the preliminary proceeding stage and no
`
`institution decision was rendered, Petitioner is entitled to a refund of the $ 14,000
`
`for the post institution fee. See e.g., 78 FR 4234 (January 18, 2013) available at
`
`http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-01-18/pdf/2013-00819.pdf (“if the review
`
`is not instituted at all, the portion of the fee covering the trial would be returned”).
`
`For at least the foregoing reasons, Petitioner hereby requests a refund of the
`
`$14,000 post-institution fee that it previously paid.
`
`
`
`The refund may be deposited in GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Inc. Deposit
`
`Account No. 50-6826.
