From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Personal Audio, LLC brought this case against CBS Corporation, alleging that CBS infringed a Personal Audio patent. A jury found for Personal Audio on infringement and invalidity as to three claims of the patent . When the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (Board) of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) issued a final written decision determining that those claims are unpatentable, the district court, with the parties’ consent, stayed entry of its judgment in this case until completion of direct review of the Board ’s decision in our court .
