`Case No. IPR2013-00083
`Docket No. 0100157-00244
`Petitioners’ Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice of Robert Galvin
`
`
`Statement of Precise Relief Requested
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c) and Paper No. 7 authorizing the parties to
`
`I.
`
`
`
`file motions for pro hac vice admission under 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), Petitioners
`
`EMC Corporation and VMware, Inc. request that the Patent Trial and Appeal
`
`Board (the “Board”) admit Robert Galvin pro hac vice in this proceeding,
`
`IPR2013-00083.
`
`II.
`
`
`
`Statement of Facts Showing Good Cause for the Board to Recognize
`Counsel Pro Hac Vice During the Proceeding
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), the Board may recognize counsel
`
`pro hac vice during a proceeding upon a showing of good cause, subject to the
`
`condition that lead counsel be a registered practitioner and to any other conditions
`
`as the Board may impose. Section 42.10(c) indicates that “where lead counsel is a
`
`registered practitioner, a motion to appear pro hac vice by counsel who is not a
`
`registered practitioner may be granted upon a showing that counsel is an
`
`experienced litigating attorney and has an established familiarity with the subject
`
`matter at issue in the proceeding.” The facts here establish good cause for the
`
`Board to recognize Robert Galvin pro hac vice in this proceeding.
`
`
`
`1.
`
`Lead counsel, Peter Dichiara, is a registered practitioner. Backup
`
`counsel, David Cavanaugh, is also a registered practitioner.

`
`
`2. Counsel, Robert Galvin, is an experienced litigator and has an
`
`
`
`established familiarity with the subject matter at issue in the proceeding.
`
`Accompanying this motion as Exhibit 1073 is the June 19, 2013 Declaration of
`
`Robert Galvin in Support of this Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice (“Galvin
`
`Decl.”). In his declaration, Mr. Galvin asserts:
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bar of the State of California,
`and am admitted to practice before the United States Courts of Appeal
`for the Fourth, Ninth and Federal Circuits, the United States District
`Courts for the Northern District of California, the Central District of
`California, the Southern District of California, and the Eastern District
`of
`Texas
`as well
`as
`all California
`state
`courts.
`
`Galvin Decl. ¶ 2 (Ex. 1073). Mr. Galvin also asserts:
`
`I am familiar with the subject matter at issue in this proceeding. I am
`counsel in PersonalWeb Technologies LLC v. EMC Corporation and
`VMware, Inc., No. 6:11-cv-00660-LED, E.D. Tex. (served on Dec.
`16, 2011), which is related to and involves the same patents at issue in
`this proceeding. … More generally, over the course of my career, I
`have had substantial experience litigating patents with related subject
`matter
`including network security, encryption, and enterprise
`software. … In connection with the inter partes reviews as well as the
`related district court litigation, I also have become familiar with the
`prior art references that are the subject of this proceeding as well as

`Petitioners’ Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice of Robert Galvin
`
`
`the evidentiary objections that PersonalWeb has raised in response to
`certain prior art references submitted by Petitioners in this proceeding.
`I have met with each of the declarants who submitted supplemental
`declarations in response to PersonalWeb’s evidentiary objections, and
`assisted in the preparation of their declarations. Thus, I am familiar
`with the subject matter of the references as well as the relevant facts
`relating to their authenticity, admissibility, and publication.
`Galvin Decl. ¶¶ 10-11 (Ex. 1073).
`3.
`In his declaration, Mr. Galvin also attests to each of the listed items required
`
`by the Order – Authorizing Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission – 37 C.F.R. §
`
`42.10 in IPR2013-00010 and agrees to be subject to the United States Patent and
`
`Trademark Office’s Rules of Professional Conduct as set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§
`
`11.100 et seq. (78 Fed. Reg. 20202-20211). See Galvin Decl. ¶¶1-11 (Ex. 1073).
