Welcome to the 8^th Volume of our IPR-PGR Report. Please let us know if you have any questions about the information contained therein, or would otherwise like to discuss Patent Office litigation. We note a few interesting stats from this latest quarter. First, we took a look at success rates for IPR proceedings by broad subject matter class. Of interest is the fact that it is more likely that an IPR petition directed to a chem/bio invention (86%) will be cancelled versus an electrical (82%) or mechanical patent (74%). Second, the claim cancellation rate has crept up a bit again, with only about 19% of claims that are put into an IPR trial surviving the Final Written Decision. Relatedly, the overall claim survival rate has dropped from 41% to 37%. Lastly, we have provided some information regarding the district courts with the highest and lowest win rates for contested motions to stay. Not surprisingly, the Eastern District of Texas is one of the districts that is least likely to stay litigation in view of an IPR.
