`
`ORDER
`Excusing Late Filing of Motion to Exclude
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5(c)(3)
`
`
`
` On December 21, 2016, Patent Owner sent an email to the
`Trials@uspto.gov box requesting late entry of a motion to exclude evidence
`(Paper 59) into the record. Ex. 3004. Patent Owner alleged that, despite the
`motion being timely filed in the PTABE2E filing system on December 13,
`2016, Due Date 4 (see Paper 46), the motion does not appear in the record.
`Patent Owner contacted Board staff concerning this error. According to
`Patent Owner, Board staff explained that the error was likely caused by a
`
`
`
`CBM2016–00009
`Patent 7,685,055 B2
`
`glitch in the PTABE2E system and suggested refiling the motion. Patent
`Owner refiled the motion late on December 21, 2016 as Paper 59.
`
`Patent Owner timely served the motion on Petitioner on December 13,
`2016 (see Paper 59, 13), and Petitioner timely opposed the motion to
`exclude evidence on December 20, 2016 (Paper 57). Via email, Petitioner
`indicated that it does not oppose late entry of the motion into the record. Ex.
`3004.
`
`Given the circumstances, good cause exists to excuse the late filing of
`the motion and enter of the motion into the record. See 37 C.F.R. 42.5(c)(3).
`Patent Owner request is granted.
`
`It is:
`
` ORDERED that the late filing of Patent Owner’s motion to exclude
`evidence (Paper 59) is excused and the motion is entered into the record.
