`ORDER
`Dismissal of Motion to Seal
`37 C.F.R. § 42.14
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2016-00476
`Patent 8,116,430 B1
`
`
`Petitioner Elekta Inc. filed confidential versions of its Reply to Patent
`
`Owner Response (Paper 25) and Ex. 1027, along with an unopposed Motion
`
`to Seal (Paper 27) portions of both documents as containing Protective Order
`
`Material. Petitioner also filed a non-confidential version of both the Reply
`
`to Patent Owner Response (Paper 26) and Ex. 1027. Because our Final
`
`Written Decision (Paper 40) does not rely on either the confidential version
`
`of Petitioner’s Reply to Patent Owner Response (Paper 25) or the
`
`confidential version of Ex. 1027, we expunge both documents and dismiss
`
`Petitioner’s Motion to Seal as Moot.
`
`It is ORDERED that
`
`Petitioner’s confidential Reply to Patent Owner Response (Paper 25)
`
`and the confidential version of Ex. 1027 are to be expunged; and
`
`Petitioner’s Motion to Seal (Paper 27) is DISMISSED as moot.
