`JUDGMENT - Bd. R. 127(a)
`
`
`
`
`
`Interference 106,054 (JTM) – Ledenev v. Adest
`Judgment
`
`
`A decision granting Motion 1 of senior party Meir Adest, Guy Sella, Lior
`
`Handelsman, Yoav Galin, Amir Fishelov, Meir Gazit, Yaron Binder and
`
`Nikolay Radimov has been entered. (Decision, Paper 186). As a result of this
`
`Decision, all the involved claims of senior party Anatoli Ledenev and Robert M.
`
`Porter are unpatentable to Ledenev and Ledenev lacks standing to continue in the
`
`interference. Bd. R. 201. Accordingly, we enter judgment against Ledenev.
`
`It is
`
`Order
`
`ORDERED that judgment on priority is entered against junior party Ledenev
`
`as to Count 1, the sole Count of the interference (Declaration, Paper 1, 4);
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that claims 1–29 of Ledenev patent 8,004,116,
`
`which correspond to Count 1, are CANCELED. (Declaration, Paper 1, 4); 35
`
`U.S.C. § 135(a);1
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that the parties are directed to 35 USC § 135(c) and
`
`Bd. R. 205 regarding the filing of settlement agreements;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that a party seeking judicial review timely serve
`
`notice on the Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office;
`
`37 C.F.R. §§ 90.1 and 104.2. See also Bd. R. 8(b). Attention is directed to Biogen
`
`Idec MA, Inc., v. Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research, 785 F.3d 648,
