`
`v.
`
`
`
`YYZ, LLC,
`Patent Owner
`
`
`

`
`
`
`MOTION FOR PRO HAC VICE ADMISSION OF MATTHEW FAUST
`
`
`
`
`
`U.S. PATENT NO. 7,603,674
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), and as authorized in the Board’s Notice of
`
`Filing Date Accorded to Petition (Paper 3), Petitioner Hewlett-Packard Co. (“HP”)
`
`respectfully requests pro hac vice admission of Matthew Faust as backup counsel
`
`in this proceeding.
`
`I.
`
`Time for Filing
`
`This motion is timely because it is being filed no sooner than twenty one (21)
`
`days after service of the Petition in this proceeding.
`
`Statement of Facts
`
`II.
`The following statement of facts demonstrates that there is good cause for the
`
`Board to recognize Matthew Faust as counsel pro hac vice in this proceeding.
`
`Mr. Faust is an experienced litigation attorney and has extensive experience
`
`litigating patent infringement actions in many different District Court cases. Mr.
`
`Faust is admitted to practice law in New York, and federal court in the Southern
`
`District of New York and the Eastern District of Michigan.
`
`Mr. Faust has an established familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this
`
`proceeding. Mr. Faust has been representing HP against Patent Owner YYZ, LLC
`
`(“YYZ”) as counsel since January 2013 in a related District Court case currently
`
`pending in the District of Delaware, YYZ, LLC v. Hewlett-Packard Co., No. 1:13-
`
`cv-00136-SLR (D. Del.). In this related proceeding, YYZ has asserted U.S. Patent
`
`No. 7,603,674 (“the ’674 patent”) against HP. As counsel in this related
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`
`
`proceeding, Mr. Faust has, among other things, been heavily involved with
`
`analyzing validity of the ’674 patent. Accordingly, HP requests that Mr. Faust
`
`continue as counsel in this CBM proceeding as well.1
`
`III. Declaration of Matthew Faust
`As directed by the Board in the Order Authorizing Pro Hac Vice Admission in
`
`Case IPR2013-00639, Paper 7 (“Representative Order”),
`
`this motion
`
`is
`
`accompanied by the Declaration of Matthew Faust (Ex. 1035) attesting to the
`
`requirements laid out in the Representative Order.
`
`For the foregoing reasons, HP respectfully requests admission of Mr. Faust as
`
`counsel pro hac vice in this proceeding.
