`U.S. Patent No. 11,122,357
`
`
`Pursuant to the Board’s authorization granted in its August 25, 2023 email,
`
`Petitioner Meta Platforms, Inc. (“Petitioner”) respectfully submits this Unopposed
`
`Motion to Withdraw Motion for Joinder.
`
`I.
`
`STATEMENT OF FACTS
`On November 21, 2022, Amazon.com, Inc. (“Amazon”) filed a petition for
`
`inter partes review (“IPR”) of claims 1-20 of U.S. Patent No. 11,122,357 (“the ’357
`
`patent”). IPR2023-00251 (“Amazon IPR”), Paper 1. Patent Owner filed suit against
`
`Petitioner on February 28, 2023, asserting the ’357 patent, along with seven other
`
`patents. Case No. 6:23-cv-00158, W.D. Tex., Dkt. 1. On June 1, 2023, the Board
`
`instituted the Amazon IPR. IPR2023-00251, Paper 7. Petitioner timely filed the
`
`petition in this proceeding, for IPR of claims 1-20 of the ’357 patent on June 27,
`
`2023 (Paper 1), along with a Motion for Joinder to and Consolidation with the
`
`Amazon IPR (Paper 2, “Joinder Motion”). Petitioner’s IPR presents identical
`
`grounds as the Amazon IPR.
`
`On August 8, 2023, the Board ordered termination of the Amazon IPR based
`
`on settlement. IPR2023-00251, Paper 15 (“Termination Order”). The Board did not
`
`decide the merits of the Amazon IPR and the Termination Order is not a Final
`
`Written Decision. Id. In this proceeding, the Board has not ruled on Petitioner’s
`
`Joinder Motion.

`
`II.
`
`ARGUMENT
`Petitioner respectfully submits that, in view of the Board’s Termination Order
`
`in the Amazon IPR, Petitioner should be permitted to withdraw its Joinder Motion
`
`(Paper 2), which is now moot. Patent Owner does not oppose this motion.
`
`III. CONCLUSION
`For the reasons presented above, Petitioner respectfully requests that the
`
`Board order that the Joinder Motion (Paper 2) is WITHDRAWN as moot.
