“II. DISCUSSION Under 35 U.S.C. § 42.73(b), “[a] party may request judgment against itself at any time during a proceeding.” We interpret Bonutti’s cancellation of claims such that it has no remaining claim in the trial to be a request for adverse judgment. 37 C.F.R. § 42.73(b)(2). Accordingly, we determine that Bonutti’s disclaimer of claims 64, 65, 67, 69, 70, 72–76, 80, 82, and 83 of the ’986 patent meets the conditions for termination of this review and entry of judgment against Bonutti.” slip op. at 2
