SEGIN SOFTWARE, LLC, Patent Owner. Case CBM2014-00051 Patent 8,165,939 B1 Before TONI R. SCHEINER, ERICA A. FRANKLIN, and GLENN J. PERRY, Administrative Patent Judges.

JUDGMENT - TERMINATION 35 U.S.C. § 317 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.72 and 42.74 CBM2014-00051 Patent 8,165,939 B1 2 The parties have submitted a Joint Motion to Terminate Proceedings (Paper 37) and a Joint Motion to Treat as Confidential Business Information (Paper 38) a Settlement Agreement (Paper 39). The parties indicate that they have also reached settlement with respect to their District Court litigation. A decision by the Board to institute a trial was entered on July 8, 2014. Paper 13. However, no Final Written Decision under 35 U.S.C. § 318 has been entered. Under these circumstances, the Board determines that it is appropriate to enter judgment 1 and terminate the trial without rendering a final written decision. 37 C.F.R. § 42.72. 1 A judgment means a final written decision by the Board, or a termination of a proceeding. 37 C.F.R. § 42.2 CBM2014-00051 Patent 8,165,939 B1 3 ORDER It is, therefore, ORDERED that the joint motion to terminate the proceeding is GRANTED and the proceeding is hereby terminated; FURTHER ORDERED that the parties’ joint request that the settlement agreement be treated as business confidential information and shall be kept separate from the file of the involved patent under the provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 317(b) and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74(c), is GRANTED.
