`PER CURIAM.
`
`O R D E R
`Responding to the court’s July 7, 2022, order, Implicit,
`
`LLC requests remand of these appeals for the Patent Trial
`and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) to reconsider its final written
`
`
`
`

`Case: 20-1173 Document: 85 Page: 2 Filed: 11/09/2022

`
`
`
`IMPLICIT, LLC v. SONOS, INC.
`
`decisions in light of intervening correction of inventorship
`certificates that Implicit argues could moot these appeals.
`Sonos, Inc. opposes remand.
`Allowing the PTAB to consider the impact of these in-
`tervening circumstances on the decisions on appeal in the
`first instance may conserve party and judicial resources.
`
`Accordingly,
`
`IT IS ORDERED THAT:
`(1) These appeals are remanded for the sole purpose of
`having the PTAB issue an order addressing what, if any,
`impact the certificates of correction would have on the final
`written decisions in these cases. This court retains juris-
`diction over the appeals.
`(2) Proceedings in these appeals remain stayed pend-
`ing the PTAB’s decision on this issue. Within seven days
`of the PTAB’s decision, the parties are directed to inform
`the court how they believe these appeals should proceed.
`Any appeals from the PTAB’s decision on this issue will be
`consolidated with these appeals.
