`Conduct of the Proceeding

`
`
`
`IPR2017-01579 and IPR2017-01580
`Patent 8,905,133 B2
`
`
`On April 24, 2018, the Supreme Court held that a decision to institute
`under 35 U.S.C. § 314 may not institute on less than all claims challenged in
`the petition. SAS Inst., Inc. v. Iancu, 2018 WL 1914661, at *10 (U.S. Apr.
`24, 2018). In our Decision on Institution1, we determined that Petitioner
`demonstrated a reasonable likelihood that it would establish that at least one
`of the challenged claims of the ’133 patent is unpatentable. IPR2017-01579,
`Paper 16, 19–20; IPR2017-01580, Paper 16, 19–20. We modify our
`institution decision to institute on all of the challenged claims and all of the
`grounds presented in the Petitions.
`The parties shall confer to discuss the impact, if any, of this Order on
`the current schedule. If, after conferring, the parties wish to otherwise
`change the schedule or submit further briefing, the parties must, within one
`week of the date of this Order, request a conference call with the panel to
`seek authorization for such changes or briefing.
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is hereby:
`ORDERED that our institution decision is modified to include review
`of all challenged claims and all grounds presented in the Petition; and
`FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner and Patent Owner shall confer
`to determine whether they desire any changes to the schedule or any further
`briefing, and, if so, shall request a conference call with the panel to seek
`authorization for such changes or briefing within one week of the date of this
`Order.
`
`
`
`1 We issued a single decision addressing both cases.
