RJ Machine v.Armaturenfabrik Franz Schneider GMBH + Co. KG
The PTAB denied institution of an IPR petition filed by RJ Machine Company against Armaturenfabrik Franz Schneider GMBH + Co. KG. The denial was based on the Petitioner's failure to comply with 37 C.F.R. § 42.104(b)(3), particularly concerning the means-plus-function claim construction of 'sealing means.'
Pharaoh Energy Services, LLC v.Flex-Chem Holding Company, LLC et al.
The PTAB denied the petition to challenge claims in a well remediation patent, finding that the petitioner failed to demonstrate sufficient novelty or obviousness against prior art references. The Board relied heavily on the proximity of parallel district court litigation when applying Fintiv factors for discretionary denial.
Pharaoh Energy Services, LLC v.Flex-Chem Holding Company, LLC et al.
The PTAB denied Pharaoh Energy Services' petition to institute IPR proceedings against Flex-Chem for patent 9944843, citing a lack of compelling merits. The Board found that the cumulative weight of Fintiv factors and insufficient technical basis in the petitioner’s evidence led to the denial.

Loco Crazy Good Cookers, Inc. v.North Atlantic Imports, LLC

This moves the dispute toward trial preparation in District Court.

Dyson and Omachron settled their inter partes review disputes, leading the PTAB to terminate four IPRs involving Dyson patents. The settlement agreement is treated as confidential business information.
Dyson Technology Limited et al. v.Omachron Intellectual Property Inc. et al.
