`I.
`
`Preliminary Statement
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`In its motion to exclude, Petitioners TD Ameritrade et al. (“TD”) repeatedly
`
`ask the Board to ignore the nature of the evidence submitted by Trading
`
`Technologies (“TT”), as well as the timing and circumstances of the evidence’s
`
`submission.
`
`TD criticizes TT’s reliance on exhibits, not declarations, in Patent Owner’s
`
`Preliminary Response (“POPR”)—when, by rule, no declarations can be submitted
`
`with that paper. Next, TD challenges as hearsay exhibits not submitted for the truth
`
`of the matter asserted, distorting the exhibits’ use to further TD’s exclusionary
`
`goals. Ignoring the rules governing the bases for expert opinions under FRE 703,
`
`TD calls for the exclusion of opinions formed using litigation-tested declarations.
`
`And TD also argues that government websites and published articles—which
`
`remain available to this day—are somehow inauthentic or unreliable.
`
`As these examples demonstrate, TD’s attacks are motivated not by a fair
`
`reading of the rules of evidence, but rather by a litigation-driven desire to exclude
`
`relevant, probative evidence. TT respectfully requests denial of TD’s motion.
`
`II.
`
`Standard
`
`The Federal Rules of Evidence (“FRE”) govern the admissibility of evidence
`
`in this proceeding. Trial Practice Guide, 77 Fed. Reg. 48,756, 48,758 (Aug. 14,
`
`2012). As the party moving to exclude evidence, TD bears the burden of proof on
`
`
`
`1
`
`

`

`inadmissibility. 37 C.F.R. § 42.20(c).
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`III. Exhibit 2007, a Set of Demonstrative Exhibits, was Properly Cited in
`TT’s Preliminary Response and is not Hearsay
`
`TD criticizes TT for citing Exhibit 2007, a set of demonstrative slides
`
`submitted to a court in parallel litigation, in its Patent Owner’s Preliminary
`
`Response. Motion at 2. TT cited this exhibit as general background regarding TT’s
`
`formation, company size, success of its MD Trader product, and general
`
`demonstratives. POPR (Paper 18) at 1, 10, 17, 53. TT did not cite to Ex. 2007 in its
`
`Patent Owner’s Response (“POR”). TT’s reliance on these demonstratives was
`
`proper under the Rules.
`
`Under Rule 42.207(c) and the Board’s Trial Practice Guide (“TPG”), a
`
`Patent Owner cannot submit new supporting declarations with its Preliminary
`
`Response and must rely on evidence from other proceedings. 37 C.F.R. § 42.207(c)
`
`(“The preliminary response shall not present new testimony evidence beyond that
`
`already of record . . . .”); TPG at 48,764 (“The preliminary response may present
`
`evidence other than new testimonial evidence to demonstrate that no review should
`
`be instituted.”) (emphasis added). As such, TD’s criticism of TT’s citation of
`
`Exhibit 2007, not repeated in the Patent Owner’s Response (“POR”), is misplaced.
`
`As discussed, for example, at pages 9-10 and 52-53 of the POPR, Exhibit
`
`2007 is demonstrative in nature and illustrates exemplary differences between TT’s
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`

`technology and the prior art. To narrow the issues before the Board, TT agrees to
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`rely on Exhibit 2007 as a demonstrative only, not to establish the truth of the
`
`matters for which it is cited on pages 1 and 17 of the POPR. As such, TD’s hearsay
`
`objections are unfounded. TD’s objections under FRE 602, 702, and 703 fail for
`
`the same reason.
`
`TD’s reliance on the best evidence rule (FRE 1002 et seq.) is similarly
`
`misplaced. First, TT has not offered Ex. 2007 “in order to prove its content” or as a
`
`“summary [of] voluminous writings.” FRE 1002; FRE 1006. TT never alleged any
`
`passage or figure of these exhibits served as a “summary” of a prior litigation. Nor
`
`has TD pointed to any discrepancy between Ex. 2007 and any underlying
`
`document. The “contents” of Ex. 2007 are therefore not at issue, and these rules are
`
`inapplicable. Second, TD’s arguments go to the sufficiency of the evidence, not its
`
`admissibility. TD’s motion questions whether the passages of Ex. 2007 are “proper
`
`summaries” of the root proceedings. Motion at 5. This argument is improper in a
`
`motion to exclude. See TPG at 48,767 (“A motion to exclude . . . may not be used
`
`to challenge the sufficiency of the evidence to prove a particular fact.”).
`
`IV. Exhibit 2202, a District Court Demonstrative, Was Not Offered for the
`Truth of the Matter Asserted
`
`TD similarly asks the Board to exclude another demonstrative exhibit,
`
`Ex. 2202, on the basis of hearsay, personal knowledge, and the rules governing
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`

`expert testimony. Motion at 2-6. Due to the demonstrative nature of the exhibit, as
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`well as its intended use, TD’s arguments fail.
`
`TT relied on Ex. 2202 to show how purported experts of TD’s co-defendants
`
`had characterized the field of the ’411 patent as technological. POR at 26. TT also
`
`cited Ex. 2202 as a general demonstrative, illustrating features detailed in the text
`
`of the response. Id. at 7. In other words, Ex. 2202 was not offered to establish the
`
`truth of these characterizations. Id. at 7, 26.
`
`Because TT did not present this exhibit to establish the truth of the matters
`
`asserted, it is not hearsay under FRE 801(c)(2). See Anderson v. United States, 417
`
`U.S. 211, 220 (1974); Abrams v. Dep’t of Public Safety, 764 F.3d 244, 252 (2d Cir.
`
`2014). And because TT offered these exhibits to show what statements were made,
`
`or general demonstratives, the personal knowledge (FRE 602) and opinion
`
`testimony requirements (FRE 701, 702) are immaterial. Such evidence is not
`
`witness testimony. Finally, TD’s attacks along the lines of the best evidence rule
`
`fail for the same reasons above. The content of the exhibit is not at issue, and TT
`
`never claimed Ex. 2202 “summarized” voluminous writings, so these rules do not
`
`apply. See FRE 1002, 1006.
`
`Finally, TD asserts that Exhibit 2202 is somehow irrelevant (FRE 401) or a
`
`waste of time (FRE 403). Not so. The exhibit contains materials considered in
`
`
`
`4
`
`

`

`litigation as to the nature of the patent in dispute here. This material provides
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`factual background helpful for patent eligibility and nonobvious assessments.
`
`V. The First Thomas Report (Ex. 2010) was Properly Cited in TT’s
`Preliminary Response and is not Hearsay
`
`TD next challenges Exhibit 2010, an expert report from Mr. Thomas in a
`
`parallel litigation, which TT cited only in its Preliminary Response. Motion at 6-
`
`10. TD attacks Ex. 2010 on three grounds, each of them improper.
`
`First, TD accuses TT of relying on Ex. 2010 as hearsay in its Preliminary
`
`Response. Motion at 7. This criticism is misplaced for the same reasons explained
`
`above. Specifically, a Patent Owner cannot submit new testimonial evidence with
`
`its Preliminary Response and therefore must rely on evidence from other
`
`proceedings. 37 C.F.R. § 42.207(c); TPG at 48,764. Here, TT cited Ex. 2010 to
`
`explain industry conventions, generic inefficiencies prior to TT’s products, and
`
`general statements about TT’s business. E.g., POPR at 5-7, 9, 10, 14, 16-18, 55.
`
`Similar statements were also explained in TT’s Patent Owner’s Response and
`
`supported by expert testimony, although TT does not directly cite Ex. 2010.
`
`Accordingly, TD’s claims are unfounded.
`
`Second, TD takes issue with paragraphs 31, 33, and 34 of Ex. 2010 as
`
`allegedly acting as “conduit[s] for the expunged Brumfield testimony.” Motion
`
`at 7. But TD’s attacks are again baseless. By Rule, TT could not submit new
`
`
`
`5
`
`

`

`testimonial evidence in its Preliminary Response. And TT never cited Ex. 2010 in
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`its Patent Owner’s Response. TD’s accusations therefore do not survive scrutiny.
`
`Third, TD challenges paragraphs 32-34 of Ex. 2010 as hearsay. Motion at 8-
`
`9. Given that Exhibit 2010 is an expert report prepared for use in a Federal District
`
`Court, reliance on facts and data beyond the expert’s personal knowledge, even if
`
`otherwise inadmissible, is proper under FRE 703. Because the declarations relied
`
`upon by Mr. Thomas are proper bases for an expert opinion, paragraphs 32-34 and
`
`the declarations should not be excluded. HTI Holdings, Inc. v. Hartford Cas. Ins.
`
`Co., No. 10-cv-06021, 2011 WL 4595799, at *3 (D. Ore. Aug. 24, 2011) (“hearsay
`
`is admissible as a type of fact or data reasonably relied upon by an expert.”
`
`Further, the declarations demonstrate the mental impressions of those in the
`
`industry falling within FRE 803(3)’s exception to the hearsay rule.
`
`VI. The Second Thomas Report (Ex. 2201) is an Expert Opinion Relying on
`Proper Evidence
`
`TD attacks the second Thomas Report (Ex. 2201) on the same grounds as
`
`the first (Ex. 2010). Motion 6-10. TD’s claims are equally unfounded.
`
`First, Mr. Thomas adopted paragraphs 15, 19-31, and 33 of Ex. 2201 as his
`
`testimony in the instant proceeding. Ex. 1037, ¶ 5. TT relied only on these
`
`paragraphs in its Patent Owner’s Response. See POR at 4, 16, 48. Moreover, TD
`
`
`
`6
`
`

`

`took the opportunity to depose Mr. Thomas after TT filed its Patent Owner’s
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`response. Ex. 1031. Thus, TD’s claims of hearsay are both irrelevant and incorrect.
`
`Second, TD asks the Board to exclude paragraphs 31, 33, and 34 of Ex. 2201
`
`as hearsay. Motion at 7. In TD’s view, these passages act as “conduit[s] for the
`
`expunged Brumfield” testimony. Id. Not so. As an expert, Mr. Thomas may rely on
`
`otherwise inadmissible evidence “[i]f experts in the particular field would
`
`reasonably rely on those kinds of facts.” FRE 703; HTI Holdings, Inc, 2011 WL
`
`4595799, at *3. Here, Mr. Thomas cites Brumfield’s transcript within a broader
`
`discourse of the benefits of the claimed system and the state of the art. Ex. 2010,
`
`¶¶ 29-30 (describing Mr. Thomas’s expert opinion on the impact of the patented
`
`system for these proceedings). It is self-evident that an expert trader would
`
`“reasonably rely” on the endorsements and voiced approval of other traders in
`
`forming and substantiating his opinion on the influence of the claimed systems.
`
`Such sworn evidence is particularly pertinent where, as here, it comes from early
`
`adopters of the product within the expert’s realm of expertise. See id., ¶ 33.
`
`Third, TD contends that paragraphs 32-34 of Ex. 2201 contain inadmissible
`
`hearsay. Motion at 8. Similar to the arguments above, TD claims that Mr. Thomas
`
`has “acted as a conduit for hearsay statements” from traders who signed
`
`declarations—under the penalty of perjury—describing the importance of the
`
`patented invention to electronic trading. Ex. 2201, ¶ 33. TD’s allegations fail to
`
`
`
`7
`
`

`

`account for the context as a whole. Mr. Thomas considered these statements in
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`forming his opinion regarding public perception of the claimed system. CBM2014-
`
`00135, Ex. 1030 at 55:7-18. Mr. Thomas was ready and willing to answer
`
`questions regarding how these declarations, as well as his conversation with one of
`
`the declarants, factored into the preparation of his declaration. Id. at 52:17-55:18.
`
`TD opted not to pursue this discovery. Nonetheless, under FRE 703, it was proper
`
`for Mr. Thomas to employ the views of the claimed product’s early adopters to
`
`inform and substantiate his general opinion of the claims and art. See Ex. 2201,
`
`¶¶ 29-30. TD offers no argument to the contrary.
`
`Nothing in TD’s reliance on United States v. Dukagjini, 326 F.3d 45 (2d Cir.
`
`2003) runs to the contrary. In Dukagjini, an expert “repeatedly deviated from his
`
`expertise” to opine on tangential evidentiary matters far outside the scope of his
`
`prowess. See id. at 58-59. Rather than use this evidence to inform or substantiate
`
`his opinion, the expert used it to generate over seventy pages of transcripts with
`
`evidence irrelevant to his expertise. Id. at 59. Here, however, Mr. Thomas has an
`
`expertise in field of the engineering, design, and development of trading interfaces.
`
`And—unlike the out-of-his-depth expert in Dukagjini —Mr. Thomas considered
`
`the sworn statements of these thirty prominent members of the industry in forming,
`
`and confirming, his opinions.
`
`
`
`8
`
`

`

`Finally, TD alleges that Ex. 2201 is irrelevant and a waste of time because
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`he purportedly did not review the ’411 patent specifically. Motion at 9-10. This is
`
`incorrect. The Thomas Report details the impact of TT’s products had in the
`
`industry (¶¶ 19-31). These products implement features of the claimed systems.
`
`Moreover, Ex. 2201 contains materials considered in litigation as to the nature of
`
`the patent in dispute here. This material provides factual background helpful for
`
`patent eligibility and nonobvious assessments.
`
`VII. TT’s Video Animations (Exs. 2012, 2014, 2048, 2049, 2203) Are Not
`Offered for the Truth of the Matter Asserted
`
`TD seeks exclusion of TT’s video animations (Exs. 2012, 2014, 2048, 2049,
`
`2203) as hearsay, lacking personal knowledge, improper opinion testimony,
`
`lacking authenticity, and an improper summary. Mot. at 10-12. Trying to support
`
`these contentions, TD theorizes that TT is “using these animations as evidence of
`
`how TT’s product and some prior art actually operates.” Id. at 10. This argument
`
`misstates the purpose of the video animations, and their demonstrative nature.
`
`As is clear from page 30 of the Patent Owner’s Response, TT offered these
`
`materials as demonstratives—examples of problems generally present in the
`
`technical field, the recognition of these problems in the specification of the ’411
`
`patent, TT’s novel, non-obvious solution to these problems, and how the claimed
`
`invention improved over the prior art. POR at 30 n.3 (describing 2049 and 2203 as
`
`
`
`9
`
`

`

`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`“examples”). Citations to Exhibits 2012, 2014, 2048, and 2049 in TT’s Preliminary
`
`Response also show their demonstrative nature. See POPR at 8-10 (Ex. 2012
`
`demonstrates col. 2:60-67), 12 (Ex. 2014 demonstrates col. 2:60-67 and 7:47-53),
`
`23-27 (Ex. 2048 demonstrates differences from prior art), and 13 (Ex. 2049
`
`demonstrates col. 7:15-46).
`
`Because these exhibits are demonstrative in nature, they are not hearsay
`
`under FRE 801(c)(2). Nor are they the summary of expert testimony subject to
`
`FRE 701 or 702. Finally, TD never articulates any way in which these exhibits lack
`
`authenticity (FRE 901) or are improper summaries (FRE 1006). Thus, TD has
`
`waived any such arguments.
`
`VIII. TT’s Reliance on the Thirty-One Litigation Declarations (Exs. 2016-
`2046) is Proper is both Responses
`
`Repeating its challenge to Mr. Thomas’s report, TD criticizes TT for citing
`
`to thirty-one declarations (Exs. 2016-2046) describing industry praise of TT’s
`
`innovations. Motion at 12-13. These hearsay and authenticity challenges fail.
`
`As explained above, TT cited this evidence in its Preliminary Response due
`
`to prohibitions on new testimony under 37 C.F.R. § 42.207(c). The declarations
`
`were cited to demonstrate the mental impressions of those in the industry, falling
`
`within the well-established exception to the hearsay rule set forth in FRE 803(3).
`
`Further, because these declarations are a proper basis for an expert declaration,
`
`
`
`10
`
`

`

`they should not be excluded. FRE 703; HTI Holdings, Inc, 2011 WL 4595799, at
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`*3. Mr. Thomas considered these sworn statements—made under penalty of
`
`perjury—in forming and confirming his opinion regarding public perception of the
`
`claimed system. It is reasonable for him to employ the views of the claimed
`
`product’s early adopters to inform and substantiate his general opinion of the
`
`claims and art. See id., ¶¶ 29-30. TD had the opportunity to ask about these
`
`declarants and chose not to explore that line of questioning at Mr. Thomas’s
`
`deposition.
`
`TD’s authentication challenge also fails. TT included these declarations in
`
`the litigation materials provided to TD. See POPR at 17 n.4; Ex. 2047. Record
`
`evidence sets forth the style of these proceedings and the Bates ranges of the
`
`declarations. Ex. 2047. TD has ready access to these documents to confirm their
`
`authenticity. FRE 901(a). Yet TD did not seek to depose any of the signatories to
`
`Exs. 2016-2046 and has not alleged any inaccuracy in the declarations. TD’s
`
`dispute implicates the weight of these documents, not their admissibility.
`
`FRE 104(e). Such claims are improper in a motion to exclude. TPG at 48,767.
`
`Further, TT need not authenticate these documents to Mr. Thomas to adduce
`
`his expert opinion. FRE 703. In other words, for the same reasons described above,
`
`Mr. Thomas has properly relied on these exhibits in forming his expert opinions.
`
`And TT’s citation the Thomas Report remains proper.
`
`
`
`11
`
`

`

`IX. The HCI Printouts (Exs. 2053-2061) Are Admissible
`TD requests exclusion of the HCI printouts (Exs. 2053-2061) as hearsay and
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`lacking authentication. Motion at 13-15. Neither assertion is correct.
`
`A. The HCI Printouts are Exceptions to the Hearsay Prohibition or
`are Not Hearsay at All
`
`TT does not rely on Exhibits 2053-2061 for the truth of the matter asserted,
`
`as TD suggests. These exhibits do not state that TT’s GUI “is technological and
`
`solves a technical problem.” Motion at 14. Rather, TT provides these exhibits to
`
`corroborate that GUIs are technology. See POR at 22. Exhibits 2053-2061
`
`corroborate this fact regardless of whether TT’s GUIs are “technological and
`
`solve[] a technical problem.” Motion at 14. Accordingly, these exhibits are not
`
`hearsay.
`
`Even if TT did need to prove the truth of the matter in these exhibits, they
`
`fall within hearsay exceptions. Exs. 2053 and 2054 are separately admissible
`
`because they are statements from a public office setting out its activities. FRE
`
`803(8)(A)(i). NASA, a federal agency, is a public office. And its statements on the
`
`division of its technical areas and their “research activities” set out its “activities.”
`
`Id.
`
`Exs. 2055-2061 are also admissible under FRE 807. These exhibits reflect
`
`printouts from websites regarding courses offered at various educational
`
`
`
`12
`
`

`

`institutions. There would be no reason for these institutions to misrepresent the
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`courses they offer or their descriptions thereof. Each website remains available to
`
`the public at the addresses provided. See infra. Thus, these statements have
`
`circumstantial guarantees of trustworthiness. FRE 807(a)(1).
`
`Exhibits 2055-2061 also evidence material facts and are highly probative.
`
`FRE 807(a)(2)-(3), demonstrating that third party institutions consistently classify
`
`subject matter relevant to this proceeding as technological. Finally, admitting these
`
`exhibits best serves the interest of justice. FRE 807(a)(4). It would have been cost
`
`prohibitive (and pedantic) for both TT and TD to depose an agent from each and
`
`every one of these schools for the sole purpose of confirming their course offerings
`
`match their online listings. To request this stresses form to the literal exclusion of
`
`substance.
`
`TT also notes that its Preliminary Response serves as proper notice on the
`
`intent to use these Exhibits 2055-2061. FRE 807(b). And each of the exhibits lists
`
`names and addresses of the institutions, or such information is readily available. Id.
`
`The HCI Printouts Are Properly Authenticated
`
`B.
`The Board should dismiss TD’s argument that Exhibits 2053-2061 are
`
`somehow inauthentic. Exhibits 2055-2061 include direct links to their sources at
`
`the top of each page. See Exs. 2055-2061. All of these sources remain available to
`
`this day and are accessible by either typing in a URL or querying public search
`
`
`
`13
`
`

`

`engines with terms from the exhibits. TD can immediately confirm their content.
`
`Case No. CBM2014-00133
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`
`TD cannot genuinely question that these documents are what they purport to be.
`
`Moreover, these exhibits also include additional indicia of authenticity such as
`
`school logos, familiar colors and formats, dates, addresses, contact information,
`
`etc., sufficient to determine that these websites are authentic. FRE 901(b)(4); see
`
`also QSC Audio Prods. v. Crest Audio, IPR2014-00127, Paper 43 at 11-12.
`
`Exhibits 2053 and 2054 are self-authenticating. “[P]ublication[s] purporting
`
`to be issued by a public authority” “require no extrinsic evidence of authenticity.”
`
`FRE 902(5). Exhibits 2053 and 2054 are websites purporting to be published by
`
`NASA, a federal agency (i.e., a public authority). Documents on government
`
`websites are thus self-authenticating. See, e.g., Hispanic Broad. Corp. v. Educ.
`
`Media Found., 2003 WL 22867633, at *5, n.5 (C.D. Cal. Oct. 30, 2003);
`
`Langbord v. U.S. Dept. of Treasury, 2011 WL 2623315, at *14 (E.D. Pa. July 5,
`
`2011). These documents also include sufficient indicia of authenticity such as
`
`NASA logos, the familiar website layout, proper names of research groups and
`
`related officials, etc., to conclude that they are genuine. FRE 901(b)(4); see also
`
`QSC Audio, Paper 43 at 11-12. Exs. 2053 and 2054 remain available to this day.
`
`Any disagreement as to the authenticity of these documents should thus go to their
`
`weight and not their admissibility.
