Federal Circuit - Anneal v Almirall - Reverses Attorney Fee Award for Work on Inter Partes Review

In Anneal v Almirall, the Federal Circuit held that a court cannot award attorney fees under 35 U.S.C. § 285 for work incurred on an inter partes review (IPR) and on appeal from IPR decision, because 35 U.S.C. § 285 is limited to "judicial proceedings."
