`discovery related to real parties' interests.
` Could you please start.

` As we discussed briefly on our initial or
`our last call with the board, the petitions that
`were filed in this matter included an exhibit that
`was labeled an internal memo, and it was from an
`attorney at Winston & Strawn named Mr. Helmert, and
`it was labeled -- it was to the EC file that
`discusses the TSE -- TSE reference which is one of
`the references discussed in the petition.
` The memo is attached as an exhibit, or was
`filed as an exhibit. It's also cited in the
`petition and listed in the documents considered by
`Mr. Rohan, who filed an expert declaration in
`support of the petition.
` We had some questions about that document
`and worked with counsel for the petitioner, and in
`response to our initial three questions, they let
`us know that they received -- we asked where they
`had gotten the documents. They said they received
`it in response to a request for prior art and that
`they did not have permission from EC to file it.
` We had two follow-up questions for them,

`and they did not provide answers to them. We --
`the parties had a call to see if we could work out
`an agreement regarding the additional information
`that we were seeking, and we were not able to reach
`agreement, and so then we have convened this call
`and we're looking really for two things to assist
`us in our preparation of our Patent Owner's
`preliminary response which is due in just under a
`month at this point.
` The first thing is compliance with the
`board's routine discovery rules regarding
`inconsistent statements. We're actually looking
`for some guidance from the board here, but it seems
`that either the rules -- the board's rules require
`the disclosure and service of any documents that
`have inconsistent statements together with the
`filing of any paper.
` And then the second thing we're looking for
`is additional discovery including the three
`questions we previously posed to help us confirm
`the request for identification of the real parties
`in interest, and I can go through a little bit of

`
`each of those if you'd like now.
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: Each of the questions?
` MS. ARNER: Well, two things.
` So the first thing is the routine
`discovery, the inconsistent statement discovery,
`which is under routine discovery under the board's
`rules, and then the second is additional discovery
`related to the real-parties'-in-interest issue.
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: Yes.
` MS. ARNER: Okay. So the routine discovery
`is a requirement under Rule 51 of the board rules
`that require the disclosure of statements that are
`inconsistent with anything within the paper that
`was filed, so of course the petition and all the
`exhibits are papers that were filed with the board.
` Routine discovery under Rule 51 extends to
`inventors, corporate officers and persons involved
`in the preparation or filing of the documents and
`things, and the Helmert memo, which was filed with
`the board, indicates that it was prepared by
`apparently eSpeed and its counsel, and so,
`accordingly, we believe that eSpeed and its counsel

`would be included in the individuals involved in
`preparing the things that were filed, and therefore
`they would have the obligation to serve any
`inconsistent statements.
` We asked whether -- TD had asked them for
`inconsistent statements, and that was one of the
`questions they wouldn't answer, but, also, we
`are -- we are aware that at least one publicly
`available document that's inconsistent, decision by
`a district court in a case involving eSpeed where
`the district court found that no reasonable jury
`could find that the TSE reference taught the claim
`elements in the patent, especially the
`single-action element, but that memo was
`involved -- it was in an eSpeed litigation, and it
`wasn't served.
` And so we're looking for the board's
`guidance on how to enforce compliance with the
`routine discovery rules that are set forth in Rule
`51.

`additional discovery?
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: Yes, please do.
` MS. ARNER: Okay. On the additional
`discovery, we have questions related to the
`fact-intensive inquiry of the real party in
`interest, and the board's guidance lays out many
`different factors that can affect who should be
`named as a real party in interest, including
`participation in a joint defense group, for
`example, and several other factors.
` And we note some specific facts that make
`us believe that we should be entitled to additional
`discovery, and those specific facts include the
`memo that was filed that named parties -- a party
`that's not involved in this petition as far as we
`know and is not listed in the petition of eSpeed,
`and also from a firm, Winston, that is not involved
`here.
` During our previous call, TD's counsel
`suggested that it may contain attorney work
`product, although they previously told us that no
`one had provided work product for the petition in

`response to our first question.
` We know that we got one document in the
`eSpeed litigation that contradicts positions in the
`petition. We heard mention of attorney work
`product suggested that perhaps there was some sort
`of joint defense privilege with eSpeed or perhaps
`there are other parties, and that joint defense
`participation would be relevant.
` And there are other parties involved
`currently in the same litigation with these patents
`and TD, and they have actually filed briefs
`together, and sometimes even having joint
`representation.
` And so, you know, the combination of all of
`those facts, and given the guidance that the board
`has set forth about the facts that can go into the
`real party in interest, which is a statutory
`requirement for the petition, is why we are seeking
`the board's permission to file a motion for
`additional discovery so that we can have the
`information we need to fully respond.

` MR. SOKOHL: Great. Thank you, your Honor.
` First, I'd like to apologize for -- I have
`a cough, so I apologize to everyone on the phone.
` First of all, the memo in question, the
`Helmert memo, was a memo written by Winston &
`Strawn in 2005 during a litigation between eSpeed
`and Trading Technologies. The memo was not written
`in the context of filing a CBM. It was a document
`that merely summarizes a deposition that was taken.
` In fact, Trading Technologies was in
`attendance at that deposition, and it just
`summarizes that deposition.
` The document was provided, as counsel for
`Trading Technologies mentioned, to TD Ameritrade in
`the 2000 time -- 2010 time frame in a request for
`prior art after TD Ameritrade was sued by Trading
`Technologies.
` Again, the document itself was not created
`in furtherance of a CBM being filed.
` Ultimately, Finnegan, counsel for Trading
`Technologies, asked TD Ameritrade to answer a

`
`number of questions related to the memo and whether
`or not in furtherance of their inquiry on real
`party in interest, and we thought that that was
`reasonable. They asked us three questions.
` Unfortunately, counsel for Trading
`Technologies left out one of the most important
`questions that they asked us. And that was:
` "Did any party other than TD Ameritrade
`provide:
` 1) Work product for the petitions."
` And we answered no.
` And B) "Comments on drafts of the
`petitions."
` Again, we answered no. Had they asked us
`whether or not anyone authorized or controlled the
`filing of petitions, we would have again answered
`"no," "no."
` The memo in question was not prepared -- it
`may be work product of Winston & Strawn and eSpeed
`in 2005, but it is related to the litigation. It
`has nothing to do with the CBMs that were
`ultimately filed, and, in fact, the memo was

`
`written before CBMs even existed in the statute.
` So we answered those questions. That was
`insufficient for counsel for Trading Technologies
`to put this to rest, and then we believe they went
`on a fishing expedition and asked a number of
`questions that were, quote, "privileged" and we
`believe completely irrelevant to the issue of the
`real parties in interest.
` Again, nobody -- no other entity was
`authorized, controlled, reviewed for -- or provided
`work product for the CBMs that TD Ameritrade filed.
` I don't know what else to say about the
`real party in interest other than the real party in
`interest had been named.
` In regard to the inconsistent statements,
`again, first of all, this is the first time we are
`hearing about this issue. This was not discussed
`during our meet and confer. It certainly, you
`know -- I guess it relates to one of the questions
`that Finnegan was asking these questions in regard
`to the real party in interest, not inconsistent
`statements.

` But, again, there is no other party who was
`involved with the CBMs, and, therefore, any
`position, thought, beliefs that other parties have
`is irrelevant to what TD Ameritrade was forward on.
`We put forth the real party in interest.
` Unless there's some questions, I don't know
`what else to say about this issue.
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: Thank you.
` Patent Owner, do you have anything else?
` MS. ARNER: Just briefly, yes, thank you.
` And first of all, regarding the memo itself
`and when it was written and why it was written, I'm
`not sure that's at all relevant here because the X
`part in these proceedings, the file and declaration
`of the petition considered the memo, so regardless
`of what its original purpose was, it's in these
`proceedings now.
` As far as the real-party-in-interest
`question, the board has acknowledged that it's
`heavily fact specific. It's not something that is
`a single "yes" or "no," and one of the facts, for
`example, whether there's JDG, and that was one of

`the specific questions that we didn't get an answer
`to, and I'm surprised to hear Petitioner's counsel
`say that this is the first they have ever heard of
`the inconsistent statement question since that was
`a specific written question we gave to them in our
`attempts to resolve this before we came to the
`board.
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: All right. Thank you.
` We will -- believe we understand your
`position. We will not be making a decision about
`this on the phone. We will be issuing you an order
`in due course.
` Patent Owner, could you please file the
`transcript as soon as possible in this case?
` MS. ARNER: Yes, yes, of course we will,
`your Honor, and in your considering the order in
`what we might be able to do going forward, if you
`would just -- our preliminary response is due
`September 3rd, and so if we need to seek the
`board's request for an extension, if there will be
`a prolonged period or longer period of briefing or
`anything, you know, we're open to talking more

`about the date.
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: We are mindful of when
`your preliminary is due.
` MS. ARNER: Thank you very much. Thank
`you.
` MR. SOKOHL: And your Honor?
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: Yes.
` MR. SOKOHL: Just one final point.
` Counsel had mentioned that our expert had
`relied on or reviewed it. That's true except on
`the last phone call we actually asked the board to
`expunge that document because it's not relied on.
`The fact that he reviewed it, again, a document
`that was written in 2005 and summarized a
`deposition, isn't relevant.
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: All right. Thank you.
` MR. SOKOHL: Thank you.
` JUDGE PETRAVICK: We are adjourned.
