On November 6, 2023, the PTAB issued an decision instituting inter partes review of U.S. Patent No. 10,681,009 B2 (“the ’009 patent”) in Keysight Technologies, Inc. v. Centripetal Networks, Inc., IPR2022-01421, Paper 16 (PTAB Nov. 6, 2023). This is the second decision the PTAB has issued in this proceeding: after the PTAB originally denied institution of review in August, that decision was vacated and remanded by USPTO Director Kathi Vidal (the blog post covering the Director’s decision can be found here). On remand, the PTAB changed course and instituted review of the ’009 Patent.
