`PATENT OWNER’S REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Patent Owner’s Request for Oral Argument
`CBM2013-00054 (Patent 7,908,304)
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a), Patent Owner respectfully requests the
`
`opportunity to present oral arguments before the PTAB on October 29, 2014. (See Order –
`
`Conduct of the Proceedings, Paper No. 40, p. 2). The issues to be argued include the
`
`patentability of claims 1, 12-25, 30-32, 42 and 43 under 35 U.S.C. § 101, whether Petitioner
`
`is statutorily barred from seeking post-grant review under 35 U.S.C. § 325(a)(1), any other
`
`issues briefed by or presented by the parties throughout this trial, and any issues argued by
`
`Petitioner during the oral argument.
`
`Recognizing that oral argument for the instant proceeding, CBM2013-00052, and
`
`CBM2013-00053 have been scheduled for the same time, and though prior PTAB orders
`
`indicate a desire to consolidate oral argument time for reviews involving the same parties,
`
`Patent Owner respectfully requests separate, demarcated oral argument time for the instant
`
`proceeding, for CBM2013-00052, and for CBM2013-00053. The three proceedings involve
`
`different patents with completely different specifications, completely different claim sets, and
`
`distinct factual and legal issues. Accordingly, Patent Owner believes separate oral
`
`argument time to be warranted and respectfully requests 30 minutes time for this
`
`proceeding. If the Board has any questions or comments, the undersigned attorney
`
`respectfully requests a telephone conference.
`
`
`Dated: September 12, 2014
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`
