`Patent 9,357,245, on Oct. 24, 2017.

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Patent Owner Music Choice provides notice to the Patent Trial and Appeal
`
`Case IPR2017-01193
`Patent 9,357,245 B1
`
`
`Board (PTAB) that a DISCLAIMER IN PATENT UNDER 37 C.F.R. § 1.321(a)
`
`was filed in connection with U.S. Patent 9,357,245 (‘245 patent). The filed
`
`Disclaimer disclaims claims 1-9, 12-14, 16 and 17 of the ‘245 patent. A copy of
`
`the filed Disclaimer is submitted as Exhibit 2002.
`
`Under 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b), a party may request adverse judgment against
`
`itself at any time during a proceeding. Actions construed to be a request for adverse
`
`judgment include disclaimer of claims such that the party has no remaining claims in
`
`the trial. The attached disclaimer of claims 1-9, 12-14, 16 and 17 of the ‘245 patent
`
`leaves no remaining claim in the pending trial.
`
`Accordingly, Patent Owner requests adverse judgment against itself with
`
`respect to claims 1-9, 12-14, 16 and 17 of the ‘245 patent
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
