`
`Case No. IPR2020-00019
`_________________________________________________________________
`
`APPLE INC.’S REQUEST FOR REFUND
`OF POST-INSTITUTION FEES
`_________________________________________________________________
`
`
`
`Petitioner Apple Inc. (“Apple”) respectfully requests a refund of post-
`
`institution fees in the amount of $15,000.
`
`On October 28, 2019, Apple filed a Petition for Inter Partes Review of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,843,125. As required by 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), Apple deposited
`
`$30,500 with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) at the time of
`
`filing the Petition in order to cover associated fees. Apple’s payment consisted of
`
`$15,500 in fees associated with the request for Inter Partes Review, and a further
`
`$15,000 in post-institution fees.
`
`On May 13, 2020, the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board issued a Decision
`
`Denying Institution of Inter Partes Review (Paper No. 15). Inter Partes Review
`
`was thus not instituted. Accordingly, Apple requests a refund of the post-
`
`institution fees paid to the USPTO in connection with this proceeding, totaling
`
`$15,000, to be paid to deposit account 15-0665 (referencing Attorney Docket
`
`7446-2073).
