The PTAB found that multiple claims of the '805 patent were unpatentable based on obviousness (103), primarily over a combination of prior art references Melnychenko and Chen.

Askeladden L.L.C. successfully convinced the PTAB to institute trial in its IPR against Calabrese Stemer LLC's credit card authorization patent (7954706). The Board found sufficient evidence of anticipation and obviousness across multiple claims, leading to a favorable outcome for the Petitioner.
Askeladden L.L.C. v.Calabrese Stemer LLC
Askeladden L.L.C. successfully convinced the PTAB to institute IPR proceedings against Calabrese Stemer LLC, asserting that the '564 patent' claims are anticipated by prior art (Horie).

Askeladden L.L.C. v.Calabrese Stemer LLC

The PTAB issued a Final Written Decision finding all nine claims unpatentable by anticipation (102) over the prior art reference Horie.
