In sum, the two grounds presented in this petition do not impede “the just, speedy and inexpensive resolution of [this] proceeding” as required by 37 C.F.R. § 42.1(b). Petitioners respectfully request that the Board institute IPR on both grounds presented, as each of Grounds 1 and 2 have meaningful benefits (and differences) relative to each other for purposes of challenging Claim 1.
VI. CONCLUSION
The cited prior art references provide non-cumulative technological teachings which indicate a reasonable likelihood of success as to Petitioners’ assertion that claim 1 of the ’108 patent is not patentable pursuant to the grounds presented in this Petition. Accordingly, Petitioners request IPR of Claim 1 of U.S. Patent No. 5,839,108.
