Almost four years ago, in a relatively rare occurrence based on there being an insufficient factual record to permit proper appellate review, the Federal Circuit vacated a District.
In Qualcomm Incorporated v. Apple Inc., the Federal Circuit held that applicant admitted prior art (AAPA) may not be the basis of an invalidity ground in an inter partes review (IPR),.
On the first of February, in Qualcomm Inc. v. Apple Inc., the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (“the CAFC”) vacated and remanded the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“the Board”).
The Federal Circuit released its decision in Qualcomm v. Apple providing guidance on AAPA in IPR proceedings. In doing so, the Federal Circuit vacated two IPR decisions of the PTAB where the PTAB had found several claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,063,674 unpatentable.
