The United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO" or "Office") revises the claim construction standard for interpreting claims in inter partes review ("IPR"), post-grant review ("PGR"), and the transitional program for covered business method patents ("CBM") proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board ("PTAB" or "Board"). In particular, the Office is replacing the broadest reasonable interpretation ("BRI") standard such that claims shall now be construed using the same claim construction standard that is used to construe the claim in a civil action in federal district court. This rule reflects that the PTAB in an AIA proceeding will apply the same standard applied in federal courts to construe patent claims. The Office also amends the rules to add that any prior claim construction determination concerning a term of the claim in a civil action, or a proceeding before the International Trade Commission ("ITC"), that is timely made of record in an IPR, PGR, or CBM proceeding will be considered.
