`
`This is a call regarding Proceeding CBM2016-00100
`

`
` I'd like to begin with a roll call.
`
` For Petitioner?

` MR. SMITH: Good afternoon, Judge.
`
`This is Christopher Smith and Thomas Lewry on behalf
`
`of Ford Motor Company.
`
` MR. STERNE: Good afternoon, Judge
`
`Medley. This is Robert Sterne on behalf of Patent
`
`Owner, Versata; and on the call we have my
`
`colleague, Michele Holoubek, Sharoon Saleem, and Sal
`

`
` I will say we also have a court
`
`reporter, Your Honor, who will be providing a
`
`transcript of the call for the record if you so
`
`request.
`
` And my final point is that I request
`
`that Michelle Holoubek speak on behalf of Patent
`
`Owner for the call today.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Okay. Thank you very
`
`much.
`
` So, Patent Owner, did you request the

`
`taking care of that for the Board.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Okay. So as soon as
`
`possible, if you could file that as an exhibit, that
`
`would be great.
`
` All right. We understand that
`
`Petitioner requests authorization to file a reply to
`
`address certain arguments made by the Patent Owner
`
`in its preliminary response.
`
` Petitioner, you may proceed to
`
`explain your position.
`
` MR. SMITH: Thank you, Your Honor.
`
`So Christopher Smith on behalf of Ford Motor
`
`Company.
`
` So we request this opportunity to
`
`brief the specific issues raised in the Patent
`
`Owner's preliminary response specifically to the
`
`financial nature of the patents-in-suit or the
`
`patents at issue in the CBMs, and we think there is
`
`good cause basically for two reasons with respect to
`
`both CBMs and an additional reason for the other
`
`one.
`
` With respect to the CBM2016-00100 and
`
`00101, we would like the opportunity to respond to
`
`Veritext Legal Solutions
`215-241-1000 ~ 610-434-8588 ~ 302-571-0510 ~ 202-803-8830

`
`Petitioner's preliminary response on the Unwired
`
`Planet Federal Circuit decision which issued kind of
`
`in the pendency between the filing of the original
`
`petition and then the preliminary response.
`
` We believe that the standard at some
`
`level has changed, at least the standard as it was
`
`argued in several PTAB decisions prior to the
`
`Unwired Planet decision, so we would like the
`
`opportunity to address the arguments raised in view
`
`of Unwired Planet and deal with some level of change
`
`in law that would suffice as good cause to have a
`
`preliminary reply brief.
`
` With respect to the CBM2016-00100
`
`petition specifically, also during the pendency
`
`between the petition and the preliminary response
`
`the Patent Owner disclaimed certain dependent claims
`
`which actually expressly claimed that the
`
`independent claims that are also at issue in the
`
`CBMs are used for financial products and so we would
`
`like to address that argument.
`
` In the preliminary response the
`
`Patent Owner cites laws that basically says you just
`
`ignore it and you don't look at it, it's like it
`
`never existed, which we don't necessarily disagree
`
`with that statement.

`
` However, there's additional PTAB law
`
`that says you may look at dependent claims and how
`
`it educates the independent claim and the scope of
`
`the independent claim, which is not an issue we
`
`specifically addressed in our original petition
`
`because it wasn't an issue because the claims hadn't
`
`been disclaimed yet, so we would contend that that
`
`would be a change in fact, which would show good
`
`cause for having a preliminary reply in this
`
`situation.
`
` As far as the schedule goes, my
`
`understanding is that the institution deadline for
`
`these petitions is going to be March 23rd, 2017. So
`
`we would propose, if the Board allows a preliminary
`
`reply, that we would file the preliminary reply in
`
`two weeks, on January 25th, which would give plenty
`
`of time before the March 23rd date for the
`
`institution decision so the Board would not be
`
`prejudiced by that filing.
`
` Thank you, Your Honor.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: And how many pages?
`
`How many pages are you requesting?
`
` MR. SMITH: Ten pages for each CBM.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Okay. Is that all?
`
` MR. SMITH: Yes, Your Honor.

`

`
`you, please.
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: Thank you, Your Honor.
`
`This is Michelle Holoubek speaking for the Patent
`
`Owner.
`
` THE COURT REPORTER: Michelle, could
`
`you please raise your volume or speak up.
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: Is this better? Can
`
`you hear me now?
`
` THE COURT REPORTER: Yes, thank you.
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: Okay. So I'll address
`
`first the Petitioner's comments regarding Unwired
`
`Planet and then I'll address the disclaimer issues
`
`second.
`
` So regarding Unwired Planet, that
`
`decision did not change the law. Since its
`
`enactment, Section 18 has said that the Petitioner
`
`must show that the patent is directed to the
`
`practice, administration, or management of a
`
`financial product or service. Unwired Planet did
`
`not change that.
`
` There are other factors that the
`
`Board has additionally used to determine whether a
`
`claim or the patent itself is completely ineligible,
`

`
`and the Petitioner here should have addressed those
`
`already.
`
` Ford's petition should have been
`
`complete when it was filed. Now there's no way that
`
`Ford can remedy its lack of analysis without adding
`
`new matter/new arguments. This fundamentally
`
`disrupts the CBM due process that the Petitioner is
`
`required to follow and that the Patent Owner should
`
`be able to rely on, particularly when the law and
`
`its application haven't changed.
`
` When we filed our POPR, our approach
`
`was predicated on the petition, and giving a redo
`
`opportunity to Ford to add new arguments to the
`
`petition disrupts that process and makes the Patent
`
`Owner incapable of properly responding to that.
`
` We note that if the Board decides
`
`anyway to give Ford a reply, then the Patent Owner
`
`should also be granted a sur-reply. As I mentioned,
`
`there is no way that Ford can recast its eligibility
`
`argument without adding new matter if they simply
`
`did not make those arguments before, and Patent
`
`Owner should be allowed to reply to those new
`
`arguments.
`
` This is an issue that can only be
`
`addressed pre-institution and to make those changes

`
`now seems like a fundamental shift in the
`
`Petitioner's arguments that the Patent Owner should
`
`be able to address if they're allowed to do that,
`
`although we want to make it clear that it's our
`
`position that Ford should not be allowed to go back
`
`and recast its arguments now once the fundamental
`
`law has not changed.
`
` Regarding the disclaimer, so in the
`
`CBM review, this has come up before. There are a
`
`number of cases from the Board, for instance, AT&T
`
`Mobility vs. Intellectual Ventures, which is
`
`CBM2015-00185, there's also CBM2016-00070, Plaid
`
`Technologies, where the claims were made
`
`pre-institution, and the Board has said that the
`
`claims are treated as though they have never existed
`
`and they will not consider the now statutorily
`
`dependent claims in their determination.
`
` Petitioner has known for some time
`
`now that they need to address all claims they intend
`
`to rely on should disclaimer come up and Ford chose
`
`not to do that. They did not address the issues
`
`that they now say are raised with regard to Claim 1.
`
`They addressed only those claims that are now
`
`disclaimed. They did not address the independent
`
`claims that they could have. They now say they want

`
`to go back and address the independent claims. But
`
`that's something that should have been done when the
`
`petition was filed.
`
` There are some cases -- well, only
`
`one that we know of -- where claims were disclaimed
`
`post-institution and the Board has not gone back and
`
`changed its institution decision. But this is
`
`pre-institution and the Board's decisions so far
`
`follow the law that those claims simply don't exist.
`
` So we do not believe that the
`
`additional briefing should be given now to allow
`
`Ford to go back and, again, redo its petition to do
`
`what it should have done in the first place.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Okay. Thank you.
`
` Petitioner, you may briefly respond
`
`before the panel confers on the issue.
`
` MR. SMITH: Thank you, Your Honor.
`
` Well, on the first point regarding
`
`Unwired Planet, I would just submit that the
`
`underlying PTAB decision in Unwired Planet
`
`specifically said that the proper inquiry is whether
`
`the patent claim claims activities that are
`
`financial in nature, incidental to a financial
`
`activity, or complementary to a financial activity.
`
` The Federal Circuit obviously
`

`
`Page 11
`
`subsequently, in November, reversed course on that
`
`and that standard is exactly what the preliminary
`
`response raises as an incorrect standard. So I
`
`would argue that Unwired Planet, at least in view of
`
`this PTAB decision in the Unwired Planet CBM, is a
`
`change in law that we ought to be able to address.
`
` And I would also add that it's not
`
`that the statute doesn't apply. I think it's that
`
`the language in the earlier PTAB decisions regarding
`
`"incidental to a financial activity" language was an
`
`interpretation of the statute and the Federal
`
`Circuit has changed that interpretation now in a way
`
`that we would like an opportunity to address in our
`
`reply.
`
` Regarding the second issue, as far as
`
`the disclaimer issue, first of all, Ford only had
`
`to, under the rules, identify one particular claim
`
`on which it's seeking CBM qualification. At the
`
`time when we filed the petition, there had been no
`
`disclaimer so we had no reason to believe we
`
`couldn't rely on the dependent claims.
`
` But I would also add that we did
`
`point to independent claims as well as the basis for
`
`why there should be CBM qualification, but we didn't
`
`make the specific argument that I am proposing now

`
`with respect to the dependent claim, reading into
`
`the scope or interpreting or broadening the scope of
`
`the independent claim to cover financial, because it
`
`wasn't necessary when the dependent claim hadn't
`
`been disclaimed.
`
` So we would like that opportunity
`
`now, which has been at least contemplated by other
`
`PTAB Boards in the past. Thank you, Your Honor.
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: Your Honor, may I
`
`respond briefly to that?
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Sure, just one last
`
`point and then we're going to wrap up.
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: Sure. Just regarding
`
`the disclaimer issue, it has been said many times
`
`that when the disclaimer occurs, it is as though
`
`those claims had never existed; and therefore when
`
`the Petitioner just mentioned that they want to talk
`
`about a broadening of scope or something along those
`
`lines that has somehow been due to the claims
`
`disclaimed, then it's just inappropriate to talk
`
`about the effect that these now disclaimed dependent
`
`claims have on the independent claims.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Okay. All right. I
`
`think we understand.

`let the parties know when your respective papers
`
`would be due.
`
` So that, Petitioner, you can go ahead
`
`and get busy formulating that, but it is limited to
`
`three pages and it's directed only to the two issues

`
`that we've discussed today, so no other further
`
`briefing on any issues; just the Unwired Planet
`
`issue and the disclaimer issue.
`
` Are there any questions?
`
` MR. SMITH: One, Your Honor. I just
`
`want to make sure that this preliminary reply will
`
`be a preliminary reply for the 00100 CBM and then a
`
`preliminary reply three pages long for the 00101
`
`CBM; correct?
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Yes. I'm sorry; I was
`
`not clear about that. Yes, it would be four papers
`
`total, so two in 00100 and two in 00101, each
`
`limited to three pages.
`
` MR. SMITH: Okay. Thank you, Your
`
`Honor.
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: Thank you, Your Honor.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Any other questions?
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: None from Patent
`
`Owner.
`
` JUDGE MEDLEY: Okay. Thank you for
`
`your participation. We are adjourned.
`
` MR. SMITH: Thank you.
`
` MS. HOLOUBEK: Thank you.
