`
`Petitioners ask the Patent Trial and Appeal Board to deny the admission and
`
`consideration of the following documents on the following basis:
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`Case CBM2015-00172
`Attorney Docket No. 41919-0002CP1
`FRE ARTICLE IV – RELEVANCE AND ITS LIMITS
`
`I.
`
`Petitioners object to Exhibit Nos. 2121, 2124, 2125, 2133, 2168, and 2174 as
`
`irrelevant under FRE 401 and thus inadmissible under FRE 402, or as confusing or
`
`a waste of time under FRE 403, because cited portions are not relevant to any issue
`
`remaining in this proceeding, such as patentability of the claimed subject matter.
`
`II.
`
`FRE ARTICLE VIII – HEARSAY
`
`To the extent Patent Owner relies on the contents of Exhibit Nos. 2121,
`
`2124, and 2133 for the truth of the matter asserted, Petitioners object to such
`
`contents as inadmissible hearsay under FRE 801 and 802 that does not fall under
`
`any exceptions, including those of FRE 803, 804, 805 or 807.
`
`III.
`
`FRE ARTICLE IX – AUTHENTICATION AND IDENTIFICATION
`
`Petitioners object to Exhibit Nos. 2121, 2124, and 2133 as not properly
`
`authenticated under FRE 901 because Patent Owner has not presented any
`
`evidence that these documents are authentic nor that the documents are self-
`
`authenticating under FRE 902.
`
`IV. FRE ARTICLE X – CONTENTS OF WRITINGS, RECORDINGS,
`AND PHOTOGRAPHS
`
`To the extent Patent Owner relies on the contents of Exhibit No. 2125 to
`
`prove the content of the original document, Petitioners object to this document as
`
`not being the original document under FRE 1002, an authentic duplicate under
`
`2
`
`
`
`Case CBM2015-00172
`Attorney Docket No. 41919-0002CP1
`FRE 1003, nor a document that falls under any exceptions to the original-document
`
`requirement, including those of FRE 1004.
`
`These objections are made within five business days from the June 26, 2016,
`
`filing and service of TT’s exhibits.
