Before PROST, TARANTO, and STARK, Circuit Judges. PROST, Circuit Judge. Fintiv, Inc. (“Fintiv”) appeals a final written decision by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board holding claims 1–3 of U.S. Patent No. 9,892,386 (“the ’386 patent”) unpatenta- ble. Today we issued an opinion in related case Fintiv, Inc. v. PayPal Holdings, Inc., No. 23-2312 (Fed. Cir. Apr. 30, 2025), holding, among others, claims 1–3 of the ’386 patent invalid as indefinite. There is no dispute that our affir- mance in the related case compels dismissing as moot this appeal. See Oral Arg. at 0:27–0:40, No. 24-1345, https://oralarguments.cafc.uscourts.gov/default.aspx?fl= 24-1345_03032025.mp3.
