On February 11, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) granted Mojave Desert Holdings, LLC and U.S.A Dawgs Inc.’s (Mojave and U.S.A. Dawgs) motion to substitute in a case involving a design patent infringement issue between Mojave and Crocs, Inc. (Crocs). The court concluded that Mojave is the successor-in-interest to U.S.A. Dawgs, that it has standing to pursue the challenge to Crocs’ patent, and that the Board erred in not substituting Mojave for U.S.A. Dawgs as the third-party requester during the inter partes reexamination.
