The Federal Circuit entered an order dismissing the appeal arising from IPR2024-01403, a procedural outcome that may look modest on its face but still carries practical significance for patent litigators tracking PTAB matters and appellate deadlines. The docket entry indicates a Federal Circuit order dismissing the appeal, rather than a merits decision addressing patentability, claim construction, or institution-related issues.

Because this appears to be an order of dismissal rather than a precedential opinion, the key takeaway is procedural: the appellate process ended without a substantive ruling from the Federal Circuit on the underlying PTAB dispute.

Salesforce, Inc. has launched a new inter partes review at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, filing IPR2026-00476 on September 24, 2026. The petition opens another closely watched PTAB dispute for technology and software-focused patent practitioners, particularly those tracking how enterprise software companies are using the Board to challenge issued patents that may affect core platform, customer relationship management, or cloud-based business tools.

At this stage, the public docket identifies the proceeding under the title Salesforce, Inc., but practitioners will want to monitor the record for the challenged patent number, the patent owner’s identity, and the specific prior-art combinations asserted in the petition as those details become available through the docket.

Salesforce, Inc. has launched a new inter partes review at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, filing IPR2026-00477 on September 24, 2026. Although the public docket caption identifies the petitioner as Salesforce, the filing is notable for what it may reveal about the company’s broader patent defense strategy and the kinds of prior-art arguments now being tested at the PTAB.

At this stage, the basic procedural posture is clear: Salesforce is asking the Board to review the validity of an issued U.S. patent through the IPR process, which allows petitioners to challenge patent claims on anticipation and obviousness grounds based on patents and printed publications.

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has filed a new inter partes review petition at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, opening IPR2026-00508 on September 22, 2026. As of the current docket caption available through Docket Alarm, the proceeding is identified under Samsung’s name, but practitioners will want to watch for the petition and mandatory notices to confirm the challenged patent, the named patent owner, and any real parties in interest as those filings become available.

At this early stage, the key development is the filing itself.

Apple Inc. has filed a new inter partes review petition at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, opening IPR2026-00500 on September 19, 2026. For patent litigators and in-house IP teams, the case is worth watching not only because of the petitioner’s profile, but also because early PTAB filings often signal parallel district court strategy, licensing pressure points, or a broader campaign against a patent family.

Apple Inc. has filed a new inter partes review petition at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, opening IPR2026-00491 on September 18, 2026.

At this early stage, the available docket information identifies Apple Inc. as the petitioner, but the publicly summarized case caption does not yet reveal all of the key underlying details practitioners will want to monitor closely—most notably, the specific patent owner, the patent number being challenged, and the precise invalidity grounds asserted in the petition.

At this stage, the publicly available docket information identifies Netskope, Inc. as the petitioner, but the full petition and accompanying papers will be critical to pin down the complete picture — including the specific patent being challenged, the patent owner, and the precise prior-art grounds asserted.

The Patent Trial and Appeal Board’s September 10, 2026 order in IPR2025-01593 is not a merits ruling, but it is still worth practitioners’ attention. The Board entered a modified scheduling order, adjusting the case calendar that will govern the parties’ deadlines through the remainder of the inter partes review. While these orders can look routine, they often reveal how the PTAB is balancing efficiency, fairness, and the practical demands of contested patent proceedings.

At bottom, the Board decided that the existing schedule should be changed.

An IPR filing alone can be strategically significant.

The Patent Trial and Appeal Board’s latest entry in IPR2026-00273 is a scheduling order, not a merits decision—but practitioners should not dismiss it as routine. In PTAB practice, the scheduling order is often the document that quietly defines the real shape of the case: deadlines, sequencing, and the procedural framework that will govern how the parties present their evidence and arguments.

Here, the Board issued an order setting the schedule for the proceeding.

Zoom Communications, Inc. has launched a new inter partes review at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, filing IPR2026-00470 on September 2, 2026.
