`JUDGMENT
`Termination of Proceeding
`37 C.F.R. § 42.73
`
`Sony Ex. 1002
`
`Page 13 of 248
`
`
`
`CBM20 16-00023
`Patent 6,411,941
`
`On April 25, 2016, Apple Inc. ("Apple") and An cora Technologies
`Inc. ("Ancora") filed a joint motion to terminate the instant proceeding in
`view of the parties' agreement to settle their disputes. Paper 6. The parties
`also filed a true copy of their written settlement agreement made in
`connection with the termination of the instant proceeding (Ex. 1030), and a
`joint request to have their settlement agreement treated as confidential
`business information under 37 C.F.R. § 42.74(c). Paper 6, 3.
`Generally, the Board expects that a covered business method patent
`review will terminate after the filing of a settlement agreement. See, e.g.,
`Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, 77 Fed. Reg. 48,756, 48,768 (Aug. 14,
`2012). Here, in their joint motion to terminate, the parties represent that
`they agreed to settle their respective claims against each other in the
`settlement agreement executed by the parties. Paper 6, 1-2. The parties also
`indicate that they have resolved their disputes. I d. In particular, the district
`court proceedings 1 related to the instant proceeding have been dismissed. !d.
`at 2. The parties agreed to refrain, to the extent permitted by law, from
`further participation in this proceeding. !d. at 3.
`Apple's petition was filed on January 8, 2016, but Ancora has not
`filed its patent owner preliminary response. Further, the Board has not
`decided whether to institute a covered business method patent review. Even
`if the Board institut~s a review and commences a trial, Apple will no longer
`participate. That means even if a review is instituted, Apple will not file a
`reply to any patent owner response or an opposition to any motion to amend
`

`December 15,2011, andAncora Techs., Inc. v. Apple, Inc.,

`
`claims. Apple also will not be conducting any cross examination of
`Ancora's witnesses. ln addition, Ancora may not have an opportunity to
`cross examine Apple's witness whose testimony is relied upon by Apple's
`petition.
`As no trial has been instituted based on Apple's petition, the instant
`proceeding is in the preliminary proceeding stage. 2 Based on the particular
`facts of this case, it is appropriate to enter judgment.3
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is:
`ORDERED that the joint motion to terminate CBM2016-00023 is
`granted, and this proceeding hereby is terminated as to all parties including
`Apple and Ancora; and
`FURTHER ORDERED that the parties' joint request to have their
`settlement agreement treated as business confidential information under
`37 C.F.R. § 42.74(c) is granted.
`
`2 A preliminary proceeding begins with the filing of a petition for instituting
`a trial and ends with a written decision as to whether a trial will be instituted.
`37 C.F.R. § 42.2.
`3 A judgment means a final written decision by the Board, or a termination
`of a proceeding. 37 C.F.R. § 42.2.
