2 SATCO PRODS., INC. v. LIGHTING SCI. GRP. CORP.
STOLL, Circuit Judge.
Satco Products, Inc. appeals the determination of the
Patent Trial and Appeal Board that claims 1, 2, 6, 11, 14,
15, and 19–23 of U.S. Patent No. 8,201,968 are not antici-
pated or, in combination with other prior art references,
rendered obvious by U.S. Patent No. 7,670,021. The issues
in this case are identical to the issues presented to us in
Technical Consumer Products Inc. v. Lighting Science
Group Corp., No. 19-1361 (Fed. Cir. Apr. 8, 2020), issued
herewith. For the reasons stated in that opinion, and be-
cause claims 2 and 6 of the ’968 patent are the only remain-
ing challenged claims in this case, 1 we vacate the Board’s
decision of no anticipation or obviousness of claims 2 and 6
and remand for consideration of the parties’ remaining ar-
guments pertaining to those claims.
VACATED AND REMANDED
COSTS
Costs to Appellant.
1 Claims 1, 11, 14, 15, and 19–23 of the ’968 patent

tion, No. IPR2017-01287, 2018 WL 5733733 (P.T.A.B.
Oct. 31, 2018), and Lighting Science Group Corp. did not
appeal this determination.
