The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) held in a precedential decision Friday that Platinum Optics Technology, Inc. (PTOT) had failed to establish an injury in fact sufficient to confer standing to appeal from a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) decision that found PTOT hadn’t proven claims of Viavi Solutions, Inc.’s patent unpatentable. The opinion was authored by Judge Claire C. Cecchi of the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, sitting by designation, and the panel included CAFC Chief Judge Moore and Judge Taranto.
