Detailed Summary

In a Director Review request, FaceTec, Inc. asks the PTAB to reverse its decision to institute IPR2025-00106 against Jumio Corporation. The patent owner contends that the Board incorrectly treated several Fintiv factors—rewarding Jumio’s prior counsel’s ethical breaches, underestimating the parties’ investments, and overlooking the complete overlap with two parallel district‑court cases—thereby warranting denial of institution under 35 U.S.C. § 314(a). The petition also points to the lack of a stipulation to avoid duplicative litigation, settled expectations from the patent family’s long history, and potential time‑bar issues involving iProov, urging the Director to deny the IPR to prevent unnecessary burden on the Board and the parties.
