Case: Patents/Procedure (Fed. Cir.)

The Federal Circuit dismissed an inventor’s appeal of a Patent Trial and Appeal Board decision finding claims of a patent that relates to radiation producing devices unpatentable, in an inter partes review by Volkswagen Group of America Inc. and Porsche Cars North America Inc. The court dismissed the appeal as moot because it affirmed the board’s decision that all claims of the patent are unpatentable in a related case.
