(“Petitioner”) challenging certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,645,300 (“300 Patent”), owned by USC IP Partnership, L.P. (“Patent Owner”) and directed towards a system for determining a website visitor’s intent and proposing further webpages for that visitor.

Facebook, Inc., 6:20-cv-555 (W.D. Tex.) (“District Court proceeding”).
