`
`Dental Imaging Technology Corporation (“Petitioner”) respectfully requests
`
`a refund of post-institution fees in the amount of $30,750 to be paid to Deposit
`
`Account No. 50-5708.
`
`On December 20, 2022, Petitioner filed a Petition for Inter Partes review of
`
`U.S. Patent No. RE48,221 (“the ’221 patent”). (Paper 2.) On May 1, 2023, the
`
`Board entered a Decision regarding Settlement Prior to Institution of Trial. (Paper
`
`7.) Petitioner deposited an electronic payment of $30,750 in post-institution fees
`
`pursuant to 37 CFR 42.15(a)(2) and 42.15(a)(4) for requesting review of 31 claims
`
`of the ’221 patent.
`
`Because the instant proceeding was not instituted, Petitioner hereby requests
`
`a refund of $30,750 for the post-institution fees that they paid to the USPTO in
`
`connection with this matter. See 78 CFR 4233, 4234-35 (Jan 18, 2013).
