Summary
- Pro se inventor Carrie Hafeman has filed a petition for Extraordinary Director Review with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, challenging Google and Microsoft's alleged violations of a Sotera Stipulation in her ongoing patent battle.
- This follows the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit's denial of her rehearing petition regarding decisions invalidating claims of her patents on remote device finder technology.
- Hafeman argues that LG's violation of the stipulation undermines the institution of six related inter partes reviews, raising critical questions about enforcement responsibilities.
- She plans to seek Supreme Court review, emphasizing the broader implications for how courts interpret patent claim language.
