`JUDGMENT
`TERMINATION OF THE PROCEEDING
` 37 C.F.R. § 42.73
`
`
`
`1 This order is to be filed in each case. The parties are not authorized to use
`this style heading in any subsequent papers.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2017-01998; IPR2017-01999; IPR2017-02000; IPR2017-02001
`Patent 7,855,092 B2; 7,901,959 B2; 7,915,631 B2; 8,309,375 B2
`
`
`The parties have requested that IPR2017-01998, IPR2017-01999,
`IPR2017-02000 and IPR2017-02001 (the “subject proceedings”) be
`terminated pursuant to a settlement. On February 26, 2018, the Board
`authorized the parties to file a Joint Motion To Terminate and a Joint
`Request that the Settlement Agreement Be Treated As Business Confidential
`Information under 37 C.F.R. 42.74(c) in each proceeding. On February 27,
`2018 in each proceeding the parties filed a Joint Motion Terminate and a
`Joint Request That The Settlement Agreement Be Treated As Business
`Confidential Information and Kept Separate. See 35 U.S.C. § 317(a);
`37 C.F.R. § 42.72. The parties also filed a copy of a written settlement
`agreement.
`A decision by the Board to institute a trial has not yet been entered in
`any of the subject proceedings. The parties have not identified any other
`matters between themselves concerning the patents that are the subject of
`these proceedings. Under these circumstances, the Board determines that it
`is appropriate to dismiss the Petition in each of the subject proceedings
`without rendering a final written decision. 37 C.F.R. § 42.72.
`It is, therefore,
`ORDERED that the joint motion to terminate each of the subject
`proceedings is GRANTED and each of the subject proceedings is hereby
`terminated;
`FURTHER ORDERED that the parties’ joint request in each of the
`subject proceedings that the settlement agreement be treated as business
`confidential information which shall be kept separate from the file of the
`involved patents under the provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 317(b) and
`37 C.F.R. § 42.74(c), is GRANTED.
