`
`Proceeding No.: CBM2015-00161
`Attorney Docket: 41919-0005CP1
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), the Petitioner (“TradeStation Group, Inc.
`
`and TradeStation Securities Inc.”) respectfully requests that the Board recognize
`
`Adam J. Kessel as counsel pro hac vice in this proceeding. Petitioner seeks the
`
`counsel of Adam J. Kessel due to his experience in representing Petitioner in other
`
`patent-related matters and particularly due to his familiarity with the substantive
`
`and technical issues involved in this proceeding. This motion is authorized by the
`
`Notice of Filing Date Accorded to Petition and Time for Filing Patent Owner
`
`Preliminary Response that was mailed on August 21, 2015.
`
`Statement of Facts
`
`Mr. Kessel is a patent litigation attorney with more than a decade of
`
`experience representing clients in cases involving computer software. Mr. Kessel
`
`regularly litigates cases before the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal
`
`Circuit, various federal district courts, and the International Trade Commission.
`
`Through his practice in such cases, Mr. Kessel has gained substantial experience in
`
`jury trials, discovery, Markman hearings, and appeals. In addition to his legal
`
`experience, Mr. Kessel had many years of software development experience prior
`
`to entering the practice of law. Mr. Kessel also has a degree in chemistry from
`
`Princeton University. TradeStation Group, Inc and TradeStation Securities, Inc.
`
`provides Exhibit A, as evidence, Adam Kessel’s biography.

`
`

`
`Proceeding No.: CBM2015-00161
`Attorney Docket: 41919-0005CP1
`Mr. Kessel also has particular experience and familiarity with the
`
`substantive and technical issues involved in this Covered Business Method review
`
`proceeding. Mr. Kessel has been involved in co-pending patent litigation brought
`
`by Patent Owner against Petitioner since its inception in June 2010. Over the past
`
`five years, Mr. Kessel has invested substantial time on Petitioner’s behalf on
`
`motion practice, discovery, appeals, and analysis of the twelve patents-in-suit,
`
`including the patent for which review is sought in the instant proceeding. Petitioner
`
`has thus invested significant financial resources in this related matter in which Mr.
`
`Kessel served as Petitioner’s counsel. Moreover, through his representation in the
`
`related matter, Petitioner has developed a particular relationship with Mr. Kessel
`
`such that Petitioner desires to continue the relationship with Mr. Kessel for the
`
`purpose of this proceeding.
`
`1. Affidavit of Individual Seeking to Appear
`
`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission is accompanied by a Declaration
`
`by Mr. Kessel as required by the Order Authorizing Motion for Pro Hac Vice
`
`mailed August 21, 2015.
`
`Accordingly, TradeStation Group, Inc. and TradeStation Securities, Inc.
`
`submit that there is good cause under 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c) for the Board to
`
`recognize Mr. Kessel as counsel pro hac vice during this proceeding.
