`NOTICE CONCERNING ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
`(ADR)
`The Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) strongly encourages parties
`
`who are considering settlement to consider alternative dispute resolution as a
`means of settling the issues that may be raised in an AIA trial proceeding.
`Many AIA trials are settled prior to a Final Written Decision. Those
`considering settlement may wish to consider alternative dispute resolution
`techniques early in a proceeding to produce a quicker, mutually agreeable
`resolution of a dispute or to at least narrow the scope of matters in dispute.
`Alternative dispute resolution has the potential to save parties time and
`money.
`
`Many non-profit organizations, both inside and outside the intellectual
`property field, offer alternative dispute resolution services. Listed below are
`the names and addresses of several such organizations. The listings are
`provided for the convenience of parties involved in cases before the PTAB;
`the PTAB does not sponsor or endorse any particular organization’s
`alternative dispute resolution services. In addition, consideration may be
`given to utilizing independent alternative dispute resolution firms. Such firms
`may be located through a standard keyword Internet search.

`
`
`If parties to an AIA trial proceeding consider using alternative dispute
`
`resolution, the PTAB would like to know whether the parties ultimately
`decided to engage in alternative dispute resolution and the reasons why or why
`not. If the parties actually engage in alternative dispute resolution, the PTAB
`
`
`
`Case IPR2019-00056
`Patent No. 6,467,088
`would be interested to learn what mechanism (e.g., arbitration, mediation,
`etc.) was used and the general result. Such a statement from the parties is not
`required but would be helpful to the PTAB in assessing the value of alternative
`dispute resolution to parties involved in AIA trial proceedings. To report an
`experience with ADR, please forward a summary of the particulars to the
`following email address: PTAB_ADR_Comments@uspto.gov
