2 CLICK-TO-CALL TECHNOLOGIES, LPZ

v. ORACLE CORPORATION

Before O’MALLEY and TARANTO, Circuit Judges, and

STARK, District Judge *.

PER CURIAM.

ORDER

Appellant Click-to-Call Technologies, LP (“CTC”) filed

a petition for rehearing en banc, in which it seeks two

forms of relief. First, it asks the court to vacate the

panel’s November 17, 2016 opinion dismissing CTC’s

appeal for lack of jurisdiction. See Click-to-Call Techs.,

LP v. Oracle Corp., No. 2015-1242, 2016 WL 6803054

(Fed. Cir. Nov. 17, 2016). Second, CTC asks the court to

rehear its appeal, which centers on CTC’s contention that

the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“the Board”) erred in

determining that inter partes review proceeding IPR2013-

00312 was not barred by 35 U.S.C. § 315(b). The petition

therefore requests relief that can be granted by the panel

that heard the appeal. See Fed. Cir. R. 35 Practice Notes.

The panel determines that rehearing of CTC’s appeal

is warranted in light of this court’s en banc opinion in Wi-

Fi One, LLC v. Broadcom Corp., --- F.3d ---, 2018 WL

313065 (Fed. Cir. Jan. 8, 2018) (en banc). Upon consider-

ation thereof,

IT IS ORDERED THAT:

(1) The petition for rehearing en banc filed by

Appellant is construed as a petition for panel re-

hearing, which the panel grants.

(2) The court’s opinion in Click-to-Call Technolo-

gies, LP v. Oracle Corp., No. 2015-1242, 2016 WL

* The Honorable Leonard P. Stark, Chief District

Judge, United States District Court for the District of

Delaware, sitting by designation.

dressing the merits of the Board’s compliance with

§ 315(b) in this case, and shall further be limited

to addressing developments that have occurred af-

ter the date on which Appellant filed its opening

appeal brief.

(4) All supplemental briefs shall be electronically

filed in the ECF system, and six paper copies of

each brief shall be filed with the court. Two paper

copies of all filings shall be served on counsel for

all other parties. Briefs shall adhere to the type-

volume limitations set forth in Federal Rule of

Appellate Procedure 32 and Federal Circuit Rule

32, with the exception that no brief may contain

more than 7,000 words.

(5) Appellant’s supplemental brief must be filed

by Monday, February 5, 2018. Appellees’ joint

supplemental brief must be filed by Wednesday,

February 21, 2018. Intervenor’s supplemental

brief must be filed by Monday, March 5, 2018. No

parties’ appeal briefs, the supplemental briefs or-

dered herein, and, if necessary, oral argument.
