On June 21, 2024, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (“CAFC”) affirmed a decision by the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey dismissing Beteiro, LLC’s (“Beteiro”) claims of patent infringement under Rule 12(b)(6) on the grounds that the asserted claims of the patents-in-suit claim nonpatentable subject matter under 35 U.S.C. § 101.  The CAFC held that Beteiro’s patents—related to remote gaming and gambling activities—amounted to the practice of an abstract idea using conventional computer equipment and did not qualify for patent protection under the two-step framework of Alice/Mayo.
