In Square, Inc. v. J. Carl Cooper, IPR2014-00157, Paper 17 (June 23, 2014), the Board concluded that in view of the patent expiration, the claims can no longer be amended, and thus they should be constructed according to their ordinary meaning. However, the Board concluded that the application of the Phillips standard did not change the construction of (1) “universal credit card/universal credit card apparatus”; (2) “transducer”; (3) “host system”; and (4) “emitter” as set forth in the Decision to Institute Review.  Yet again indicating that the broadest reasonble construction is often the ordinary meaning.
