`INTRODUCTION
`I.
`In IPR2019-00789, Sawai USA, Inc. and Sawai Pharmaceutical Co.,
`Ltd. (together, “Sawai”) filed a Petition requesting an inter partes review of
`claims 1–20 of the ’514 patent. IPR2019-00789, Paper 1. Sawai
`additionally filed a motion to join case IPR2018-01403 as a party. IPR2019-
`00789, Paper 2. We granted Sawai’s Petition and motion for joinder and
`terminated IPR2019-00789. Paper 60.
`Biogen MA Inc. (“Patent Owner” or “Biogen”) filed a request for
`rehearing of the Board’s decision of Sawai’s Petition and motion for joinder.
`Paper 62.
`Subsequently, Sawai and Biogen jointly requested that this case be
`terminated with respect to Sawai due to a settlement. Paper 94. We granted
`the joint request to terminate this proceeding with respect to Petitioner
`Sawai. Paper 96. Consequently, Sawai is no longer a party to this
`proceeding and Biogen’s request for rehearing is moot. Accordingly, we
`dismiss Biogen’s request for rehearing as moot.
`
`II. ORDER
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is hereby:
`ORDERED that Patent Owner’s request for rehearing is dismissed.
