`Case No. IPR2023-01261
`Petitioner’s Request for Refund of Post-Institution Fees
`
`Petitioner Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company requests a refund of post-
`
`institution fees in the amount of $22,500.
`
`On July 31, 2023, Petitioner filed a Petition for Inter Partes Review of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,045,531. As required by 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), Petitioner deposited
`
`$41,500 with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) at the time of filing
`
`the Petition to cover associated fees. Petitioner’s payment consisted of $19,000 in
`
`fees associated with the request for Inter Partes Review, and a further $22,500 in
`
`post-institution fees.
`
`
`
`On October 17, 2023, the Board issued a Decision granting the parties’ Joint
`
`Motion to Dismiss this proceeding (Paper 7). Inter Partes Review was thus not
`
`instituted. Accordingly, Petitioner requests a refund of the post-institution fees paid
`
`to the USPTO in connection with this proceeding, totaling $22,500, to be paid to
`
`deposit account No. 04-01679 (referencing Attorney Docket No. H7426-00001).
