`
`ORDER
`Granting Patent Owner’s Motion to Expunge
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`
`
`
`Case IPR2017-00203
`Patent 6,649,180 B1
`
`
`On December 20, 2017, Patent Owner filed an Unopposed Motion to
`Expunge Confidential Information. Paper 61. Specifically, Patent Owner
`requests expungement of the unredacted version of Exhibit 2064 and
`Exhibits 2067–2072, all filed under seal. Id. at 1.
`On December 17, 2017, pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 317(a), the parties
`filed a Joint Motion to Terminate this proceeding. Paper 57. In light of the
`parties’ settlement, we entered an order terminating the proceeding. Paper
`60. We did not rely on any information in the aforementioned exhibits to
`dispose of any issues in this proceeding.
`Based on the record before us, the need to protect the confidential
`information in Exhibits 2064 and 2067–2072 outweighs the public interest in
`unsealing those exhibits. Accordingly, it is appropriate to expunge the
`exhibits from the record.
`
`Accordingly, it is:
`
`ORDERED that the non-public version of Exhibit 2064 and Exhibits
`
`2067–2072 be expunged from the record.
