Cabello Hall Zinda Secures PTAB Denial of Apple’s IPR Petition

We are pleased to announce that the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board has DENIED Apple’s petitions for inter partes review, which challenged the validity of our client’s patent directed toward gesture-based control of terminal devices.

Led by James Hall, our post grant team prepared comprehensive preliminary responses identifying weaknesses in the petitions. Based on the responses, the Board found “significant weaknesses” in the petition and ultimately denied institution.

The patent is currently being asserted against Apple in Haptic, Inc. v. Apple, Inc., No. 3-24-cv-02296 (N.D. Cal.).

Over the past two years, our firm is 12-0 against Apple in post grant proceedings, which is a testament to the talent of our post grant attorneys.
