`
`PATENT OWNER’S OBJECTIONS TO
`EVIDENCE PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.64
`
`

`
`

`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), the undersigned, on behalf of Patent
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`
`
`Owner Progressive Casualty Insurance Co. (“Patent Owner”), hereby submits the
`
`following objections to Exhibits 1039-1041 filed on September 5, 2013 by Liberty
`
`Mutual Insurance Co. (“Liberty” or “Petitioner”) in response to Patent Owner’s
`
`Objections to Evidence, filed August 22, 2013. Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.62,
`
`Patent Owner’s objections below apply the Federal Rules of Evidence (“F.R.E.”).
`
`I.
`
`PATENT OWNER MAINTAINS ITS PRIOR OBJECTIONS
`
`Patent Owner maintains all objections it previously set forth, including its
`
`objections filed on August 22, 2013. (See CBM2012-00003, Paper No. 40).
`
`II. EXHIBITS 1039-1041 GO BEYOND EVIDENCE PERMITTED
`UNDER 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(B)(2)
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(2) provides that a “party relying on evidence to which
`
`an objection is timely served may respond to the objection by serving supplemental
`
`evidence within ten business days of service of the objection.” Patent Owner
`
`objects to Exhibits 1039-1041 because they go beyond, and are not proper
`
`supplemental evidence pursuant to, 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(2).
`
`III. OBJECTIONS TO EXHIBIT 1039 AND ANY REFERENCE
`TO/RELIANCE THEREON
`
`Patent Owner hereby objects to Exhibit 1039, Declaration of Mary Lou
`
`O’Neil, dated September 5, 2013 (“O’Neil Second Declaration”).
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`1
`
`

`
`Grounds for objection: 37 C.F.R. § 42.61 (Admissibility of Evidence),
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`
`
`F.R.E. 402 (Relevance), F.R.E. 403 (Excluding Relevant Evidence for Prejudice,
`
`Confusion, Waste of Time, or Other Reasons), F.R.E. 901 (Authentication), 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.223 (Filing of Supplemental Evidence), F.R.E. 702, 703, 705 (Witness
`
`Not Qualified to Provide Expert Testimony), F.R.E. 602 (Lack of Personal
`
`Knowledge), F.R.E. 801, 802 (Impermissible Hearsay), 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b)
`
`(Outside Scope of Response and Petition), and the O’Neil Second Declaration is
`
`unauthorized testimony.
`
`Patent Owner advanced no position that provides a proper basis for the
`
`belated submission of the O’Neil Second Declaration or the exhibits referenced
`
`therein, i.e., the O’Neil First Declaration (Exhibit 1032). (37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b);
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37 C.F.R. 42, Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, part II, § I
`
`(77 Fed. Reg. 48,756, 48,767 (Aug. 14, 2012)). The statements in the O’Neil
`
`Second Declaration have no relevant bearing on any issue properly raised in this
`
`proceeding or argument raised by Patent Owner. (F.R.E. 402, 403; 37 C.F.R. §
`
`42.61). Rather, the O’Neil Second Declaration is an attempt to raise new theories
`
`to support invalidity arguments in an effort to establish a prima facie case of
`
`unpatentability of the claims that should have been submitted with the Petitioner’s
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`2
`
`

`
`
`petition.1 The content of the O’Neil Second Declaration and Exhibit 1032 are
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`either inapplicable or should have been submitted when the petition for review was
`
`filed, not after the institution of this trial. (F.R.E. 403; 37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37
`
`C.F.R. 42, Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, part II, § I).
`
`Further, O’Neil’s new testimony could have been elicited during direct
`
`examination in the first instance. (Id.) O’Neil’s attempt to now offer testimony in
`
`her Declaration is not rebuttal evidence and should not be allowed to remedy any
`
`deficiency with the improperly filed O’Neil First Declaration.
`
`The O’Neil Second Declaration was not authorized by the Board. None of
`
`the PTAB rules or regulations authorizes filing new testimonial evidence in
`
`
`1 For example, in ¶ 3, O’Neil challenges Patent Owner’s objection that she is
`
`raising new theories in order to make out a prima facie case. O’Neil bases this
`
`challenge on her understanding that “the Board already found [a prima facie case]
`
`to exist in its Institution Decision.” This challenge demonstrates Petitioner’s and
`
`O’Neil’s profound misunderstanding as to what is proper to raise in a reply or
`
`rebuttal declaration. The fact that the Board instituted this case does not mean that
`
`Petitioner and O’Neil are free to later raise new arguments and introduce new
`
`evidence that should have been offered at the time of filing the Petition – theories
`
`to which Patent Owner has no opportunity to rebut or respond.
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`3
`
`

`
`
`conjunction with a Petitioner reply that does not arise from the submission of a
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`substitute claim or is responsive to a Patent Owner’s claim amendments, especially
`
`in light of the prejudice to Patent Owner because there is no opportunity to respond
`
`to or rebut new declarations submitted at this stage. Consequently, the O’Neil
`
`Second Declaration is both outside the scope of Patent Owner’s Response and
`
`impermissible supplemental evidence. (37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b);
`
`37 C.F.R. 42, Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, part II, § I).
`
`All the statements contained in the O’Neil Second Declaration are out of
`
`court statements offered for the truth of the matter asserted therein and constitute
`
`impermissible hearsay. (F.R.E. 801, 802). Further, the O’Neil Second Declaration
`
`refers to out of court statements offered for the truth of the matter asserted therein,
`
`and they also constitute impermissible hearsay. (Id.)2 Nor has a showing been
`
`made that a hearsay exception or exclusion applies.
`
`Additionally, the O’Neil Second Declaration is not relevant because O’Neil
`
`is not qualified to testify and lacks the necessary “scientific, technical, or other
`
`specialized knowledge [to] help the trier of fact to understand the evidence or to
`
`determine a fact in issue” because she is not sufficiently knowledgeable about the
`
`subject matter on which she has offered her opinions in her declaration. (F.R.E.
`
`
`2 For example, in ¶¶ 2-3, O’Neil refers to her First Declaration.
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`4
`
`

`
`
`702; 37 C.F.R. § 42.61; 37 C.F.R. § 42.65; see also F.R.E. 402, 703, 705).
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`Accordingly, permitting any reliance on this purported expert testimony in
`
`submissions of Petitioner would be misleading and unfairly prejudicial to Patent
`
`Owner. (F.R.E. 403).
`
`IV. OBJECTIONS TO EXHIBIT 1040 AND ANY REFERENCE
`TO/RELIANCE THEREON
`
`Patent Owner hereby objects to Exhibit 1040, Declaration of Scott Andrews,
`
`dated September 5, 2013 (“Andrews Third Declaration”).
`
`Grounds for objection: 37 C.F.R. § 42.61 (Admissibility of Evidence),
`
`F.R.E. 402 (Relevance), F.R.E. 403 (Excluding Relevant Evidence for Prejudice,
`
`Confusion, Waste of Time, or Other Reasons), F.R.E. 901 (Authentication), 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.223 (Filing of Supplemental Evidence), F.R.E. 702, 703, 705 (Witness
`
`Not Qualified to Provide Expert Testimony), F.R.E. 602 (Lack of Personal
`
`Knowledge), F.R.E. 801, 802 (Impermissible Hearsay), 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b)
`
`(Outside Scope of Response and Petition), and the Andrews Third Declaration is
`
`unauthorized testimony.
`
`Patent Owner advanced no position that provides a proper basis for the
`
`belated submission of the Andrews Third Declaration or the exhibits referenced
`
`therein, i.e., the Andrews Second Declaration (Exhibit 1034), a purported copy of
`
`ISO8790-1987, “Information Processing Systems – Computer System
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`5
`
`

`
`
`Configuration Diagram Symbols and Conventions” (Exhibit 1035), purported
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`website printout titled “The Apache Software Foundation ASF History Project –
`
`Timeline” (Exhibit 1037), and the Rossen First Declaration (Exhibit 1038). (37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.23(b); 37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37 C.F.R. 42, Office Patent Trial Practice
`
`Guide, part II, § I). The statements in the Andrews Third Declaration have no
`
`relevant bearing on any issue properly raised in this proceeding or argued by Patent
`
`Owner. (F.R.E. 402, 403; 37 C.F.R. § 42.61). Rather, the Andrews Third
`
`Declaration is an attempt to raise new theories to support invalidity arguments in
`
`an effort to establish a prima facie case of unpatentability of the claims that should
`
`have been submitted with the Petitioner’s petition.3 The content of the Andrews
`
`
`3 For example, in ¶ 3, Andrews challenges Patent Owner’s objection that he
`
`is raising new theories in order to make out a prima facie case. Andrews bases this
`
`challenge on his understanding that “the Board already found [a prima facie case]
`
`to exist in its Institution Decision.” As indicated in footnote 1, supra, this
`
`challenge demonstrates Petitioner’s and Andrews’s profound misunderstanding as
`
`to what is proper to raise in a Reply or rebuttal declaration. The fact that the Board
`
`instituted this case does not mean that Petitioner and Andrews are free to later raise
`
`new arguments and introduce new evidence that should have been offered at the
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`6
`
`

`
`
`Third Declaration and Exhibits 1034-1035 and 1037-1038 are either inapplicable
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`or should have been submitted when the petition for review was filed, not after the
`
`institution of this trial. (F.R.E. 403; 37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37 C.F.R. 42, Office
`
`Patent Trial Practice Guide, part II, § I).
`
`Further, Andrews’s new testimony could have been elicited during direct
`
`examination in the first instance. (Id.) Andrews’s attempt to now offer testimony
`
`in his Third Declaration is not rebuttal evidence and must not be allowed to
`
`remedy any deficiency with the improperly filed Andrews Second Declaration.
`
`The Andrews Third Declaration was not authorized by the Board. None of
`
`the PTAB rules or regulations authorizes filing new testimonial evidence in
`
`conjunction with a Petitioner reply that does not arise from the submission of a
`
`substitute claim or is responsive to a Patent Owner’s claim amendments, especially
`
`in light of the prejudice to Patent Owner because there is no opportunity to respond
`
`to or rebut new declarations submitted at this stage. Consequently, the Andrews
`
`Third Declaration is both outside the scope of the Patent Owner’s Response and
`
`
`(continued…)
`
`
`time of filing the Petition – theories to which Patent Owner has no opportunity to
`
`rebut or respond.
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`7
`
`

`
`
`impermissible supplemental evidence. (37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b);
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`37 C.F.R. 42, Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, part II, § I).
`
`Petitioner apparently presents the Andrews Third Declaration, and
`
`specifically ¶¶ 4-5, in an attempt to verify the source, dates and authenticity of
`
`Exhibits 1035 and 1037. Andrews claims that Exhibit 1035 “was” a true and
`
`correct but then does not purport to have any knowledge of Exhibit 1035 beyond
`
`that it was downloaded on August 15, 2013. (See Andrews Third Declaration, at
`
`¶ 4.) Similarly, Andrews claims to have visited and consulted “The Apache
`
`Software Foundation website” but then does not purport to have any knowledge as
`
`to the specific information set forth in Exhibit 1037. (See id. at ¶ 5.) Andrews also
`
`cites another webpage (“http://www.apache.org/foundation/”) as to the purported
`
`Apache Software Foundation’s legal status, without any allegation as to the
`
`veracity of that information. (See id.) Andrews has failed to provide any relevant
`
`statement or personal knowledge regarding the original publication date of the
`
`materials submitted as Exhibits 1035 and 1037 (F.R.E. 402, 602; 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 42.61); and he failed to provide any proper basis for concluding that the they are
`
`true and accurate copies as they existed at the time of publication, to the extent
`
`they were published prior to when he purportedly downloaded or accessed them
`
`(F.R.E. 901). Therefore, the declaration and testimony regarding Exhibits 1035
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`8
`
`

`
`
`and 1037 are both prejudicial and irrelevant to any issue in this proceeding.
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`(F.R.E. 402; 37 C.F.R. § 42.61; F.R.E. 403).
`
`Furthermore, the Andrews Third Declaration seeks to verify the source of
`
`Exhibits 1035 and 1037 even though they are inadmissible supplemental evidence
`
`and not relevant to any issue of this proceeding. (F.R.E. 402; 37 C.F.R. § 42.61;
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b); 37 C.F.R. 42, Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, part II, § I).
`
`Consequently, the Andrews Third Declaration is irrelevant, outside the scope of
`
`Patent Owner’s Response, and constitutes impermissible supplemental evidence.
`
`(37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b); 37 C.F.R. § 42, Office Patent Trial
`
`Practice Guide, part II, § I).
`
`All the statements contained in the Andrews Third Declaration are out of
`
`court statements offered for the truth of the matter asserted therein and constitute
`
`impermissible hearsay. (F.R.E. 801, 802). Further, the Andrews Third Declaration
`
`refers to out of court statements offered for the truth of the matter asserted therein,
`
`and they also constitute impermissible hearsay. (F.R.E. 801, 802).4 Nor has a
`
`showing been made that a hearsay exception or exclusion applies.
`
`
`4 For example, in ¶ 3, Andrews refers to his Second Declaration; in ¶ 4, he
`
`indicates when Exhbit 1035 was “in effect;” and in ¶ 5, he quotes another
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`9
`
`

`
`Additionally, the Andrews Third Declaration is not relevant because
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`
`
`Andrews is not qualified to testify and lacks the necessary “scientific, technical, or
`
`other specialized knowledge [to] help the trier of fact to understand the evidence or
`
`to determine a fact in issue” because he is not sufficiently knowledgeable about the
`
`subject matter on which he has offered his opinions in his declaration. 5 (F.R.E.
`
`702; 37 C.F.R. § 42.61; 37 C.F.R. § 42.65; see also F.R.E. 402, 703, 705).
`
`Accordingly, permitting any reliance on this purported expert testimony
`
`submissions of Petitioner would be misleading and unfairly prejudicial to Patent
`
`Owner. (F.R.E. 403).
`
`V. OBJECTIONS TO EXHIBIT 1041 AND ANY REFERENCE
`TO/RELIANCE THEREON
`
`Patent Owner hereby objects to Exhibit 1041, Declaration of Jordan M.
`
`Rossen (“Rossen Second Declaration”), an attorney in the office of Petitioner’s
`
`counsel, dated September 5, 2013.
`
`Grounds for objection: 37 C.F.R. § 42.61 (Admissibility of Evidence),
`
`F.R.E. 402 (Relevance), F.R.E. 403 (Excluding Relevant Evidence for Prejudice,
`
`(continued…)
`
`
`purported webpage (“http://www.apache.org/foundation/”) as to the purported
`
`Apache Software Foundation’s legal status.
`
`5 See, e.g., supra at 8 and 9-10 n.4.
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`10
`
`

`
`
`Confusion, Waste of Time, or Other Reasons), F.R.E. 901 (Authentication), 37
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`C.F.R. § 42.223 (Filing of Supplemental Evidence), F.R.E. 702, 703, 705 (Witness
`
`Not Qualified to Provide Expert Testimony), F.R.E. 602 (Lack of Personal
`
`Knowledge), F.R.E. 801, 802 (Impermissible Hearsay), 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b)
`
`(Outside Scope of Response and Petition), and the Rossen Second Declaration is
`
`unauthorized testimony.
`
`Petitioner apparently presents the Rossen Second Declaration in an attempt
`
`to verify the source, date and/or authenticity of Exhibit 1036 and substantiate the
`
`allegations in Exhibit 1038. However, Rossen simply reiterates allegations from
`
`Exhibit 1038 and then claims that Exhibit 1036 “was” a true and correct copy, that
`
`he obtained a copy at some point in August 2013, and that he did not copy the
`
`pages himself but rather had it done by an unnamed person. Rossen also fails to
`
`provide any relevant statement or personal knowledge regarding the original
`
`publication date of Exhibit 1036 or that the statements in Exhibit 1038 are
`
`accurate. (F.R.E. 402, 602, 901; 37 C.F.R. § 42.61). He fails to establish any
`
`proper basis for concluding that Exhibit 1036 is a true and accurate copies as it
`
`existed at the time of publication. (F.R.E. 402, 901; 37 C.F.R. § 42.61).
`
`Therefore, the declaration and testimony regarding Exhibits 1036 and 1038 are
`
`both prejudicial and irrelevant to any issue in this proceeding. (F.R.E. 402, 403; 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.61).
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`11
`
`

`
`The Rossen Second Declaration is also unauthorized. None of the PTAB
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`
`
`rules or regulations authorizes filing a new declaration as to new exhibits in
`
`conjunction with a Petitioner Reply that do not arise from the submission of a
`
`substitute claim or is responsive to a Patent Owner’s claim amendments, especially
`
`in light of the prejudice to Patent Owner because there is no opportunity to respond
`
`to or rebut new declarations submitted at this stage. Furthermore, the Rossen
`
`Second Declaration seeks to verify the source of documents that are inadmissible
`
`supplemental evidence and not relevant to any issue of this proceeding. (F.R.E.
`
`402; 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b); 37 C.F.R. § 42.61; 37 C.F.R. § 42.223; 37 C.F.R. 42,
`
`Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, part II, § I). Consequently, the Rossen
`
`Declaration is irrelevant, outside the scope of Patent Owner’s Response, and
`
`constitutes impermissible supplemental evidence. (Id.)
`
`All the statements contained in the Rossen Second Declaration are out of
`
`court statements offered for the truth of the matter asserted therein and constitute
`
`impermissible hearsay. (F.R.E. 801, 802). Further, the Rossen Second Declaration
`
`refers to out of court statements offered for the truth of the matter asserted therein,
`
`CLI-2141248v1
`
`12
`
`

`
`
`and they also constitute impermissible hearsay. (Id.)6 Nor has a showing been
`
`Case CBM2012-00003
`Patent 8,140,358
`
`made that a hearsay exception or exclusion applies.
`
`VI. CONCLUSION
`For at least these reasons, the Patent Owner objects to Exhibits 1039-1041.
