Patent Trial and Appeal Board

PTAB designates as informative a decision addressing a petitioner’s different claim construction positions in district court and at the PTAB

Cambridge Mobile Telematics, Inc. v. Sfara, Inc., IPR2024-00952, Paper 12 (PTAB Dec. 13, 2024) – informative as to majority opinion

In this decision denying institution, the Board addresses circumstances in which a petitioner argues in district court that a claim limitation should be construed as means-plus-function and argues in a petition for inter partes review that the PTAB should construe the same limitation using the plain and ordinary meaning. The majority opinion determines that the petition should, at a minimum, explain why the different positions are warranted or, alternatively, set forth a means-plus-function construction for the limitation.
