`Case IPR2019-01191
`U.S. Patent No. 8,606,917
`
`
`
`On June 18, 2019, Guest Tek Interactive Entertainment Ltd. (“Petitioner”)
`
`filed a petition for Inter Partes Review seeking review of claims 1 and 11 of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,606,917 (Paper 1). Patent Owner, Nomadix, Inc. (Patent Owner),
`
`submitted a preliminary response on October 11, 2019 (Paper 5). Petitioner filed a
`
`reply to the petition on November 13, 2019 (Paper 7). Patent Owner filed a sur-
`
`reply on November 21, 2019. On December 27, 2019, the Patent Trial and Appeal
`
`Board issued its judgment denying Petitioner’s petition (Paper 9). Petitioner filed a
`
`request for rehearing on January 27, 2020 (Paper 10), which the Patent Trial and
`
`Appeal Board denied on March 23, 2020 (Paper 11).
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.15 requires petitioners to pay a $15,000 “Inter Partes Review
`
`Post-Institution fee.” 37 C.F. R. § 42.15(a)(2). The rules provide for a refund of
`
`the post-institution fee if the Board does not institute trial. 78 Fed. Reg. 4212,
`
`4233 (January 18, 2013). Payment of the $15,000 post-institution fee was
`
`processed in E2E and charged to Deposit Account 233050. See Petition, Paper No.
`
`1, at p. 4. Petitioner hereby requests a refund of $15,000 the post-institution fee
`
`under 37 C.F.R. § 42.015(a)(2).
`
`
`
`Upon review and approval of this request, Petitioner respectfully requests
`
`that the Board credit the post-institution fee to Deposit Account 233050.
