`
`Authorization and Statement of the Relief Requested
`
`Patent Owner
`
`Intellectual Ventures ll LLC (“Patent Owner”) hereby
`
`requests a district court-type claim construction of U.S. Patent No. 6,1 15,737 (the
`
`“’737 Patent”) under the standard provided by Phillips v. AWH Corp, 415 F.3d
`
`1303 (Fed. Cir. 2005), in accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.300(b)l, during covered
`
`business method review of the ’737 Patent. Petitioner also filed a Motion
`
`requesting that the Board apply a district court-type claim construction for this
`
`proceeding. See Paper No. 3, CBM2016-00083. However, Petitioner’s Motion
`
`further
`
`requested “alignment between the Patent Trial and Appeal Board’s
`
`construction of this language and the construction previously provided by the
`
`District Court.” This further request is improper and should be disregarded by the
`
`Board. Patent Owner will address claim construction of specific terms in its
`
`preliminary response.
`
`II.
`
`Statement of the Reasons For the Relief Requested
`
`The ’737 Patent will expire within 18 months of the Notice of Filing Date
`
`Accorded to the Petition. And, pursuant to amended 37 C.F.R. § 42.300(b), a party
`
`in a covered business method review may request a district court-type claim
`
`construction of the involved patent where the patent will expire within 18 months
`
`from entry of the Notice of Filing Date Accorded to Petition.
`
`‘As amended, effective May 2, 2016 (81 Fed. Reg. 18750, 18766 (April 1, 2016)).
