`
`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Micron Technology, Inc. (“Petitioner”) filed a Petition (Paper1,
`
`“Pet.”) requesting an inter partes review of claims 1—7 of U.S. Patent
`No. 6,233,181 B1 (Ex. 1001, “the ’181 patent”). On April 21, 2016, we
`instituted an inter partes review ofclaims1, 2, 4, 6, and 7 of the 7181 patent.
`
`Paper 8, 10. On July 22, 2016, Limestone Memory Systems LLC (“Patent
`
`Owner’) filed a notice indicating that claims 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7 of the
`
`181 patent were disclaimed under 37 C.F.R. § 1.321(a), and requesting
`
`adverse judgment. Paper 10,1.
`
`Il.
`
`ANALYSIS
`
`A party may request judgment againstitself at any time during a
`
`proceeding. 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b). Actions construed to be a request for
`
`adverse judgmentinclude disclaimer of a claim such that the party has no
`
`remaining claim in the trial. 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b)(2). Here, Patent Owner
`
`indicates that all the claims involvedin this inter partes review were
`
`disclaimed, and Patent Owner expressly requests adverse judgment.
`
`Paper 10, 1; Ex. 2002, 3. Therefore, we determinethat it 1s appropriate to
`
`grant Patent Owner’s request for adverse judgment.
`|
`HI. ORDER
`
`In consideration of the foregoing,it is hereby:
`
`ORDEREDthat Patent Owner’s request for adverse judgment under
`37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b) is granted; and
`|
`FURTHER ORDEREDthat adverse judgmentis entered against
`
`Patent Ownerwith respect to claims 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7 of the ’181 patent.
