`
`Case CBM2015-00179
`U.S. Patent 7,533,056 B2
`OBJECTION TO PETITIONERS’ EXHIBITS 1003-1004, 1006-1007,
`
`I.
`
`1014-23, 1029; 1031, and 1042-44
`
`Patent Owner objects to Exhibits 1003-04, 1006-07, 1014-23, 1029; 1031;
`
`and 1042-44 to the extent that Petitioners rely on their contents for the truth of the
`
`matters asserted therein. 1003-04, 1006-07, 1014-23, 1029; 1031; and 1042-44 are
`
`inadmissible hearsay under FRE 801 and 802, and no exception applies.
`
`II.
`
`OBJECTION TO PETITIONERS’ EXHIBITS 1003-1005
`
`Petitioners have submitted no evidence to authenticate Exhibit 1003, and
`
`deficient evidence for Exhibit 1004 as set forth below, making both inadmissible
`
`under FRE 901.
`
`Patent Owner also objects to Exhibit 1003-1005 under FRE 602. Petitioners
`
`fail to provide a credible translation of TSE and fail to conform with the Board’s
`
`rules for submitting translations of foreign language documents. In particular, 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.63(b) requires that “[w]hen a party relies on a document or is required
`
`to produce a document in a language other than English, a translation of the
`
`document into English and an affidavit attesting to the accuracy of the translation
`
`must be filed with the document.” The record lacks such an affidavit under Rule
`
`42.63(b) attesting to the accuracy because Mr. Cohen: (1) incorrectly refers to
`
`“2014.05.19 - 1003 – TSE” as an English translation; and (2) on information and
`
`belief, he did not, himself, translate the Japanese language TSE into English,
`
`3
`
`

`
`Case CBM2015-00179
`U.S. Patent 7,533,056 B2
`thereby demonstrating his lack of personal knowledge regarding the matter for
`
`which he is testifying. See FRE 602 (requiring personal knowledge to testify to a
`
`matter). Exhibit 1005 noncompliant with 37 C.F.R. § 42.63(b). This makes Exhibit
`
`1003 and 1004 inadmissible under 37 C.F.R. § 42.61(a) (“Evidence that is not
`
`taken, sought, or filed in accordance with this subpart is not admissible.”).
`
`III.
`
`OBJECTION TO PETITIONERS’ EXHIBIT 1036
`
`To the extent Patent Owner relies on the contents of Exhibit 1036 to prove
`
`the content of the original document, Petitioners object to this document as not
`
`being an original document under FRE 1002, an authentic duplicate under FRE
`
`1003, nor a document that falls under any exceptions to the original-document
`
`requirement, including those of FRE 1004. Further, the citation to Exhibit 1036 is
`
`an improper incorporation by reference, in violation of 37 C.F.R. § 42.6(a)(3).
