On Wednesday morning, the PTO issued an advisory action that affirmed its rejection of all claims of U.S. Patent No. 7,844,915, according to court papers. The patent, which covers Apple’s “pinch-to-zoom” feature, is the only one for which the Cupertino-based company can try to recover lost profits, which account for more than $113 million of its nearly $380 million request for damages.
Jurors began deliberations in a limited damages retrial Tuesday afternoon. All but one of the 13 Samsung products at issue were found to infringe the ’915 patent.
