John N. Moffitt v. State of Tennessee
Syllabus
Appellant appeals the trial court's denial of his petition for restoration of citizenship rights under Tennessee Code Annotated section 40-29-105. Appellant contends that the trial court's decision violates ex post facto protections by imposing a harsher sentence than that available at the time of his conviction. Discerning no error, we affirm and remand.

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that the separate affirmance of ineligibility of certain claims rendered the issue of obvi- ousness of those same claims moot
- vacating Board decisions on patenta- bility and remanding with instructions to dismiss IPRs as to those claims because a district court’s invalidation of those claims rendered the appeal moot (citing United States v. Mun- singwear, Inc. 340 U.S. 36, 39–41 (1950))
