`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`
`I.
`
`Introduction
`
`TT raises two evidentiary objections in its Motion to Exclude. (Paper 109.)
`
`The first challenges the authenticity of the TSE manual. (Ex. 1006.) The second
`
`seeks to exclude cross-examination testimony from TT’s own declarants that TT
`
`finds too prejudicial for the Board to hear. Both objections lack merit.
`
`First, no legitimate challenge can be made to the authenticity of the TSE
`
`manual. There is unequivocal and reliable evidence to support the finding that
`
`Exhibit 1006 is what it purports to be: namely, a 1998 publication issued by the
`
`Tokyo Stock Exchange. (Ex. 1010, 9:19-10:9, 10:19-24, 11:1-3, 11:11-24; Ex.
`
`2163, 45:7-46:3; Ex. 1053, Sokohl Decl. ¶ 1.) This 1998 publication has been
`
`twice authenticated by an employee of the Tokyo Stock exchange, Atushi
`
`Kawashima, who TT has twice deposed—once in this proceeding (Ex. 2163) and
`
`once in 2005 (Ex. 1010).
`
`Given these circumstantial guarantees of trustworthiness, TT concedes that
`
`the 2005 deposition transcript is permissible hearsay. TT does not point to any
`
`evidence suggesting that Exhibit 1006 is not the 1998 TSE manual. And, in any
`
`event, Mr. Kawashima authenticated Exhibit 1006 again in his 2016 deposition.
`
`Second, TT’s efforts to exclude the cross-examination testimony of its own
`
`declarants should be rejected. TT’s experts admitted that the claimed inventions do
`
`not improve computers. (See, e.g., Ex. 1051, 57:18-58:13; Ex. 1052, 263:15-
`
`
`
`- 1 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`269:13, 247:17-249:2.) That testimony is relevant to whether TT’s patent claims
`
`are patent eligible or not. TT had a full and fair opportunity to try to rehabilitate its
`
`witnesses through redirect. It chose not to do so. Instead, TT uses this motion as a
`
`thinly-disguised attempt to argue the merits of whether “the claimed inventions do
`
`not improve computers.” (Paper 109 at 9, 15.) But a motion to exclude is not the
`
`proper vehicle to argue the merits or belatedly attempt to rehabilitate declarants.
`
`Accordingly, the Board should deny TT’s Motion to Exclude.
`
`II. Argument
`A. The TSE manual has been properly authenticated.
`1. TT concedes that the 2005 Kawashima deposition transcript is
`permissible hearsay; TT thus moots its own evidentiary objection.
`
`TT does not seek to exclude the 2005 Kawashima deposition transcript
`
`(Exhibit 1010). Instead, TT asserts that Petitioners failed to authenticate the TSE
`
`manual (Exhibit 1006) because the 2005 Kawashima deposition transcript—which
`
`authenticates the TSE manual—is allegedly hearsay. Yet TT undermines all of its
`
`alleged “doubts” about the authenticity of the TSE manual by failing to object to
`
`the 2005 Kawashima deposition transcript itself and furthermore by conceding that
`
`it is admissible hearsay. (Paper 109 at 2-7, 3.) (“[T]he residual hearsay objection of
`
`FRE 807 applies to . . . the 2005 Kawashima deposition transcript.”)
`
`TT presumably takes this position hoping to receive favorable treatment of
`
`its own testimonial evidence from the related district court litigation. To this end,
`
`
`
`- 2 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`TT asserts that “Patent Owner’s evidence from district court litigation and the 2005
`
`Kawashima deposition transcript should stand or fall together.” (Id. at 6, emphasis
`
`added.) But TT’s bizarre attempt to horse trade on evidentiary issues in its motion
`
`is improper. The Office’s regulations place the burden of proof in any motion on
`
`the movant, including in motions to exclude. 37 C.F.R. § 42.20(c); see, e.g., TRW
`
`Automotive U.S. LLC v. Magna Electronics Inc., IPR2014-01347, Paper 25 at 15
`
`(P.T.A.B. Jan. 6, 2016). By conceding that Exhibit 1010 is permissible hearsay, TT
`
`quashes its own evidentiary objection. As such, its motion fails.
`
`2. Admissible evidence shows that Exhibit 1006 is what Petitioner
`purports; TT’s arguments to the contrary are without merit.
`
`Petitioners have produced unequivocal and unrebutted evidence showing
`
`that Exhibit 1006 is the TSE manual. That evidence meets the requirement for
`
`authentication under each of Fed. R. Evid. 901, 902(11), and 901(b)(4).
`
`The certified English translation bears the name of the “Tokyo Stock
`
`Exchange Operation System Division” and the date “August, 1998.” (Ex. 1007 at
`
`5.) The 2005 deposition of Mr. Kawashima provides further supporting evidence of
`
`authenticity. (Ex. 1010.) Mr. Kawashima’s testimony establishes that: (1) Exhibit
`
`1006 is “the current futures options trading system -- trade manual” (compare Ex.
`
`1006 at 1, marked “DX 179” with bates numbering “TSE 647-981”; with Ex. 1010,
`
`9:19-10:9); (2) confirmed that the document was prepared and disseminated in
`
`1998 by the Tokyo Stock Exchange (Ex. 1010, 10:19-24, 12:22-24); (3) that Mr.
`
`
`
`- 3 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`Kawashima had personal knowledge of that, as he “was in charge of preparing this
`
`document” (Id. at 11:3); (4) that he prepared Exhibit 1006 in the ordinary course of
`
`business, as a regular practice of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (Id. at 11:4-14); and
`
`(5) that Exhibit 1006 was maintained thereafter at the Tokyo Stock Exchange in
`
`the ordinary course of business. (Id. at 11:15-24.)
`
`Petitioner also served supplemental evidence providing additional support
`
`that Exhibit 1006 is what it purports to be. This includes evidence that Exhibit
`
`1006 is included in the file history of U.S. Patent No. 8,185,467. (Ex. 1053, Sokohl
`
`Decl. ¶ 1.) Petitioner also presented evidence that a party offered the same
`
`document as Exhibit 179 in a related district court action, Trading Technologies
`
`International, Inc. v. eSpeed, Case No. 04-cv- 5312. (Ex. 1006, marked “DX 179”
`
`bates “TSE 647-981”.) Further, TT submitted this same, bates-stamped version of
`
`the TSE manual to the Patent Office during prosecution of the ’467 patent in an
`
`information disclosure statement. (Ex. 1053, Sokohl Decl. ¶ 1.) Accordingly, there
`
`is no question that Exhibit 1006 is the TSE manual referred to in the deposition.
`
`Furthermore, independent of Kawashima’s 2005 deposition testimony
`
`(Exhibit 1010) Petitioner authenticated the TSE manual during Mr. Kawashima’s
`
`second deposition. (Ex. 2163, 45:7-46:3.) Thus, regardless of whether his prior
`
`testimony is considered, the TSE manual has been properly authenticated.
`
`

`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`a) Exhibit 1006 has been authenticated under Fed. R. Evid. 901.
`Petitioner has offered evidence that is more than sufficient to support a
`
`finding that Exhibit 1006 is what Petitioner claims it is.1 Fed. R. Evid. 901. And
`
`Fed. R. Evid. 901(b)(1) provides that “a proponent may authenticate evidence
`
`through testimony.” See, e.g., SAP Am., Inc. v. Arunachalam, IPR2013-00195,
`
`Paper 60 at 22 (P.T.A.B. Sept. 18, 2014). Mr. Kawashima “was in charge of
`
`preparing the document.” (Ex. 1010 at 11:3.) He is, and was, competent to identify
`
`it for purposes of authentication. Rosenberg v. Collins, 624 F.2d 659, 665 (5th Cir.
`
`1980) (“Any person in a position to attest to the authenticity of certain records is
`
`competent to lay the foundation for the admissibility of the records; he need not
`
`have been the preparer of the record, nor must he personally attest to the accuracy
`
`of the information contained in the records.”) See, e.g., EMC Corp. v. Personalweb
`
`Techs., LLC, IPR2013-00084, Paper 64 at 44 (May 15, 2014) (rejecting argument
`
`that a witness cannot authenticate a document unless he himself authored it).
`
`TT’s criticism of the way Mr. Kawashima verified his identification of the
`
`TSE manual (based on his personal knowledge about how it was prepared), does
`
`not cut against authenticity in a way supported by law. (Paper 109 at 6-7.) Indeed,
`
`
`1 Petitioner responded substantively to TT’s challenge to the printed
`
`publication status of the TSE manual in its Reply. (Paper 105 at 13-17.)
`
`
`
`- 5 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`TT does not cite any legal authority in support of the standard it asks the Board to
`
`impose on Mr. Kawashima. Nor does the law require a witness to specify precisely
`
`how they would go about confirming their identification of a document, given that
`
`a witness need not attest to its complete accuracy. See Rosenberg, 624 F.2d at 665.
`
`b) Exhibit 1006 is self-authenticated under Fed. R. Evid. 902(11).
`Additionally, Exhibit 1006 is self-authenticated under Fed. R. Evid. 902(11)
`
`because it comes from the business records of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Mr.
`
`Kawashima’s testimony establishes that preparation and maintenance of manuals,
`
`such as the TSE manual, was a regularly conducted activity by the Tokyo Stock
`
`Exchange. (See, e.g., Ex. 1010, 11:4-24.) Mr. Kawashima was an employee with
`
`the requisite knowledge during the relevant timeframe to establish this. (Id. at
`
`5:15-21.) Manuals prepared in the ordinary course of business “fall under the
`
`business record exception” and “meet the authentication standard.” Dataquill Ltd.
`
`v. Handspring, Inc., 2002 WL 31870560 at *3 (N.D. Ill. Dec. 23, 2002).
`
`Mr. Kawashima’s testimony stands unrebutted that the TSE manual was
`
`prepared and maintained as a regularly conducted activity in the ordinary course of
`
`business (Ex. 1010, 11:4-24). Fed. R. Evid. 803(6)(B)-(D). When Mr. Kawashima
`
`testified in 2005 as to its authenticity, the TSE manual was only seven years old.
`
`(Ex. 1010, 10:19-24.) Fed. R. Evid. 803(6)(A). TT has not shown, nor can it, that
`
`“the source of information or the method or circumstances of preparation indicate
`
`
`
`- 6 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`any lack of trustworthiness.” Fed. R. Evid. 803(6)(E). TT’s suggestion that Mr.
`
`Kawashima’s testimony is conclusory does not establish untrustworthiness. (Paper
`
`109 at 6-7). And TT’s allegation that Mr. Kawashima is biased is merely self-
`
`serving speculation. (Id. at 8.) (See infra Section II.A.3.) Accordingly, all of the
`
`requirements for authenticating the TSE manual (Exhibit 1006) as a record of
`
`regularly conducted activity are satisfied in this case. Fed. R. Evid. 902(11).
`
`c) Exhibit 1006 is authenticated under Fed. R. Evid. 901(b)(4).
`And, although not necessary, the TSE manual is authenticated under Fed. R.
`
`Evid. 901(b)(4) which provides that “appearance, contents, substance, internal
`
`patterns, or other distinctive characteristics of the item, taken together with all the
`
`circumstances” is sufficient to satisfy the Fed. R. Evid. 901(a). Exhibit 1006 shows
`
`a distinctive layout with a large number of unique illustrations. Exhibit 1006 also
`
`includes the bates numbering applied in connection with the related district court
`
`action. (Ex. 1006, marked “DX 179” with bates numbers “TSE 647-981,” and page
`
`numbering “1-1,” etc.) This branding is distinctive and confirms the authenticity of
`
`Exhibit 1006. A distinctive circumstance here also includes that Mr. Kawashima
`
`made himself available for cross-examination in this proceeding. (See infra Section
`
`II.A.3.) In view of this, Petitioner has laid a sufficient foundation to establish that
`
`Exhibit 1006 is authentic under Fed. R. Evid. 901(b)(4). See, e.g., Ericsson Inc. v.
`
`
`
`- 7 -

`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`Intellectual Ventures I LLC, IPR2014-00527, Paper 41 at 12 (P.T.A.B. May 18,
`
`2015) (finding collection of papers with sequential pages authenticated).
`
`Accordingly, because Petitioner properly authenticated the TSE manual in
`
`numerous ways, and TT offers no evidence suggesting the TSE manual is not what
`
`Petitioner purports it is, TT’s request to exclude Exhibit 1006 should be denied.
`
`And even if TT had raised legitimate questions, which TT has not, “[a]ny doubts. .
`
`. [go] to the weight and not the admissibility of the [evidence].” United States v.
`
`Albert, 595 F.2d 283, 290 (5th Cir.1979), cert. denied, 444 U.S. 963 (1979).
`
`3. TT deposed Kawashima twice and still has no basis to dispute Ex.
`1006’s authenticity; alleged bias goes to weight not admissibility.
`
`Mr. Kawashima made himself available for cross-examination in this
`
`proceeding to answer questions about the TSE manual and his alleged bias. This
`
`resolves any hearsay concern with respect to Exhibit 1010. Specifically, Mr.
`
`Kawashima addressed his 2005 statements “while testifying at the current trial or
`
`hearing” and sat for cross-examination. Fed. R. Evid. 801(c)(1). Accordingly,
`
`Exhibit 1010 is not untrustworthy evidence and any hearsay objection has been
`
`cured.
`
`TT first deposed Mr. Kawashima in 2005, resulting in the transcript offered
`
`as Exhibit 1010. Exhibit 1010 authenticates the TSE manual. On March 21, 2016,
`
`TT objected to Petitioner’s proffer of Exhibit 1010 on grounds that it amounted to
`
`impermissible hearsay. (Paper 30 at 3-4.) Hoping to resolve TT’s objection and
`
`
`
`- 8 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`avoid this motion, Petitioner made Mr. Kawashima available for cross-examination
`
`in this proceeding specifically to allow TT to ask questions about the TSE manual.
`
`(Paper 34; Paper 58; Ex. 2163, 26:22-27:25.) The second deposition took place on
`
`June 17, 2016. (Ex. 2163.) During this deposition Mr. Kawashima corroborated his
`
`prior testimony. (Id. at 45:7-61:2; 43:2-21; 51:6-61:2; Exs. 1054-57.) TT
`
`conspicuously omits this testimony and cites virtually nothing from the 2016
`
`Kawashima deposition transcript in its motion. Having failed to support a
`
`challenge to the veracity or reliability of Mr. Kawashima’s authentication, despite
`
`the opportunity to do so, TT has no reasonable basis to question authenticity. TT
`
`continues to accuse Mr. Kawashima of being biased merely because he is
`
`employed by the Tokyo Stock Exchange. (Paper 109 at 8.) This is unsubstantiated.
`
`Despite being given a full and fair opportunity to cross-examine him extensively
`
`on his prior testimony and credibility, TT has repeatedly failed to discredit Mr.
`
`Kawashima or show that he is biased. Regardless of what TT subjectively believes,
`
`TT has failed to support its allegations with facts. The fact is that Mr. Kawashima
`
`wrote the TSE manual years before the Tokyo Stock exchange challenged TT’s
`
`Japanese patent. (Ex. 2163, 46:12-47:1.) Mr. Kawashima testified that he was not
`
`involved in the challenge to the Japanese patent. (Id. at 32:9-13.) Furthermore,
`
`TT’s evidentiary objections are improper, as any alleged bias goes to the weight of
`
`the testimony, and not its admissibility. Polaris Wireless, Inc. v. Trueposition, Inc.,
`
`
`
`- 9 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`IPR2013-00323, Paper 62 at 39, 42 (P.T.A.B. Nov. 3, 2014) (weighing alleged bias
`
`based on the witness’s position as the “Vice President of Petitioner with significant
`
`financial interests” including stock options; concluding that it was not significant).
`
`TT also insinuates that counsel for Petitioner told Mr. Kawashima what to
`
`say during his June 17, 2016 deposition. (Paper 109 at 8.) This accusation is
`
`baseless and contradicted by what Mr. Kawashima actually testified:
`
`Q: Did the attorneys yesterday give you advice on how to answer
`
`questions?
`
`A: They said that I should please answer with what I remember.
`
`Q: And did you have any disagreements with the attorneys yesterday?
`
`A: I didn’t – I wasn’t talking about my opinions. I was simply talking
`
`about facts yesterday.
`
`(Ex. 2163, 15:16-23.)
`
`In sum, despite having two full and fair opportunities to cross-examine Mr.
`
`Kawashima on the TSE manual, TT still fails to point out any inconsistency or
`
`infirmity in his prior testimony. This cuts directly against TT’s contention that “the
`
`2005 Kawashima deposition transcript ultimately raises additional doubts as to the
`
`authenticity of the document.” (Paper 109 at 6-7.) It does not. And TT’s attempts
`
`to discredit Mr. Kawashima’s sworn testimony with attorney argument, rather than
`
`successful cross-examination, only further cements its authenticity and veracity.
`
`
`
`- 10 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`But even if the Board deems the 2005 Kawashima deposition transcript
`
`(Exhibit 1010) to be hearsay, it readily satisfies the residual exception. Fed. R.
`
`Evid. 807. Exhibit 1010 is a professionally prepared deposition transcript taken
`
`before a notary public pursuant to the Fed. R. Civ. P. (Ex. 1010 at 1.) There is no
`
`dispute that the deposition occurred when and where it did, and that Exhibit 1010
`
`is a true and correct copy of what transpired. (Paper 109 at 3-5.) Mr. Kawashima
`
`gave his statement under oath. (Ex. 1010, 5:1-4.) As such, Exhibit 1010 “has
`
`equivalent circumstantial guarantees of trustworthiness.” Fed. R. Evid. 807(a)(1).
`
`Exhibit 1010 is also more probative than any other evidence Petitioner can obtain
`
`through reasonable efforts because it was taken close in time to when the TSE
`
`manual was prepared and disseminated. Fed. R. Evid. 807(a)(2), (3).2 Finally,
`
`admitting Exhibit 1010 is in the interests of justice because it will provide as
`
`complete a record as possible regarding the TSE manual. Fed. R. Evid. 807(a)(4).
`
`B.
`
`The testimony is highly probative and admissible.
`
`TT urges the Board to exclude choice portions of two deposition transcripts,
`
`one involving TT’s declarant Dan Olsen (Ex. 1051 at 57-58) and the other
`
`
`2 TT complains that Petitioner initially opposed their request to depose Mr.
`
`Kawashima in these proceedings (Paper 109 at 6-7), but TT does not explain why
`
`this matters—given that Mr. Kawashima ultimately did make himself available.
`
`
`
`- 11 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`involving TT’s declarant Christopher Thomas (Ex. 1052 at 393-397). TT’s
`
`argument can be summed up as seeking to exclude unfavorable testimony and
`
`otherwise using this Motion to Exclude as an unauthorized sur-reply to argue the
`
`merits of whether “the claimed inventions do not improve computers.” (Paper 109
`
`at 9, 15.)
`
`Fed. R. Evid. 403 provides that evidence may be excluded if its probative
`
`value is substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice, confusing the
`
`issues, misleading the fact-finder, undue delay, wasting time, and/or presenting
`
`needlessly cumulative evidence. Here, the material sought to be excluded consists
`
`of factually true admissions explaining how the claims are not directed to various
`
`technological improvements. These admissions are highly probative of patent
`
`eligibility. In turn, TT appears to rely on the “unfair prejudice,” “confusing” and
`
`“misleading” aspects of Fed. R. Evid. 403. But there is simply no danger of
`
`confusing or misleading the Board. The Board is perfectly capable of according
`
`these admissions appropriate weight in view of all the evidence. And TT has failed
`
`to demonstrate even a remote likelihood that the statements will be misinterpreted
`
`or misunderstood. TT may disagree with the legal conclusions to be drawn from
`
`these admissions; however, that is not a cognizable basis for excluding evidence.
`
`TT has exhausted its opportunities to brief the merits and rehabilitate its
`
`experts with explanations such as “[r]ather than admitting the claimed inventions
`
`
`
`- 12 -
`
`

`

`Case CBM2015-00181
`Patent 7,676,411
`do not improve computers, [Mr. Olsen/Mr. Thomas] was simply stating what was
`
`not explicitly recited by the claims.” (Paper 109 at 10, 15.) This argument has
`
`nothing to do with balancing probative value and unfair prejudice under Fed. R.
`
`Evid. 403; it is an improper attempt to explain away highly probative admissions.
`
`And, as a general policy, it is not unfairly prejudicial to place the burden of
`
`seeking clarification on the testifying expert. In fact, this has long been the Board’s
`
`practice.3 Here, counsel for Petitioner properly instructed the witness. (See, e.g.,
`
`Ex. 1051, Olsen Dep. Tr., 6:9-17; Ex. 1052, Thomas Dep. Tr., 5:21-6:7.) Having
`
`been instructed, and free to seek clarification as needed, the answers provided are
