“A party may request judgment against itself at any time during a proceeding. 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b). Under the Rules, actions construed as a request for entry of adverse judgment include “[c]ancellation or disclaimer of a claim such that the party has no remaining claim in the trial.” 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b)(2). Here, Patent Owner has disclaimed, under 37 C.F.R. § 1.321, claims 1–42 of the ’407 patent, which constitute all challenged claims involved in this trial. See Ex. 2031. We thus construe the statutory disclaimer as a request for entry of adverse judgment. Having reviewed the statutory disclaimer, we determine that adverse judgment against Patent Owner with respect to claims 1–42 of the ’407 patent is appropriate.” slip op. at 2

Actions construed to be a request for adverse judgment include: … (2) Cancellation or disclaimer of a claim such that the party has no remaining claim in the trial.” 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b). According to our reviewing court, 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b) gives the Board authority to construe a patent owner’s actions in disclaiming all challenged claims in an instituted trial as a request for an adverse judgment. Arthrex, Inc. v. Smith & Nephew, Inc., 880 F.3d 1345, 1349 (Fed. Cir. 2018). In the present inter partes review, Patent Owner has disclaimed all challenged claims of the ’601 patent, such that there are none left to be contested by the Petition. We consequently view Patent Owner’s filing of the Disclaimer, removing the last of the challenged claims from this inter partes review, and its request for termination of the proceeding, as a constructive request for adverse judgment against itself under § 42.73(b). Arthrex, 880 F.3d at 1349. Because there are no challenged claims left for the Petition to contest in this proceeding, adverse judgment against Patent Owner is granted.” slip op. at 2
