Ecolink Intelligent Technology, Inc. v. Roku, Inc.
Patent Trial and Appeal Board
Holding
The Federal Circuit affirmed the PTAB without opinion under Federal Circuit Rule 36. The judgment states no reasoning and identifies no separate patent-law holding.
Why It Matters
This is a nonprecedential Rule 36 affirmance, so it leaves the PTAB result intact but provides no guidance on the merits for future cases.
Full Summary
Key Points
- Appeal arose from PTAB IPR2023-00792.
- The Federal Circuit panel consisted of Judges Prost, Chen, and Stoll.
- The court issued a per curiam Rule 36 judgment rather than a written opinion.
- Because the judgment contains no reasoning, the underlying patentability issues and the basis for affirmance are not clear from the extracted text.
- Result: PTAB decision affirmed.
