`
`
`
`Petitioner’s Response to Order re
`Procedures Following Remand
`
`Petitioner respectfully submits the following response to the Board’s
`
`November 13, 2020 order regarding procedures following remand. (Paper 57.)
`
`Petitioner proposes that the Board hold any further proceedings in abeyance
`
`until the time to petition the Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari has passed or until
`
`any such petition is resolved. In an order dated March 19, 2020, the Supreme Court
`
`extended the deadline to file any petition for a writ of certiorari to 150 days from the
`
`date of the lower court judgment.2 In this case, the judgment in the appeal issued on
`
`September 4, 2020, and therefore the deadline to file a petition for a writ of certiorari
`
`is February 1, 2021. See Facebook, Inc. v. Windy City Innovations, LLC, Case No.
`
`18-1400, ECF No. 113 (Fed. Cir. Sept. 4, 2020).
