ParkerVision (OTCQB:PRKR) has filed a Supreme Court petition challenging the Federal Circuit's practice of summarily affirming patent invalidations without detailed explanations. This follows the Patent Trial and Appeal Board's (PTAB) June 2024 invalidation of key ParkerVision patent claims in its dispute with TCL and LG Electronics through inter partes review. The Federal Circuit responded with a one-word 'affirmed' ruling.
The petition argues this practice violates Section 144 of the Patent Act, which requires the court to issue detailed opinions. ParkerVision contends that lack of explanations for patent invalidations creates uncertainty in the patent system and hampers innovation. The company seeks to establish a precedent requiring detailed judicial opinions for patent invalidation cases.
