`PETITIONER’S RESPONSE TO “NOTICE OF FILING DATE
`ACCORDED TO PETITION AND TIME FOR FILING PATENT
`OWNER PRELIMINARY RESPONSE” OF JUNE 6, 2013
`
`

`
`Case IPR2013-00328
`Patent No. 6,744,892 B2
`
`
`In response to PTAB’s “NOTICE OF FILING DATE ACCORDED
`
`TO PETITION AND TIME FOR FILING PATENT OWNER
`
`PRELIMINARY RESPONSE” of June 6, 2013 (Paper No. 5, “June 6
`
`Notice”), Petitioner OpenTV hereby files this timely response on June 7,
`
`2013, within the five businessday period as required by the PTAB in its June
`
`6 Notice.
`
`This response includes two documents:
`
`(1) this response explaining the background and Petitioner’s
`
`corrective measure (7 pages including the cover page and certificate of
`
`service), and
`
`(2) a corrected 60-page petition removing all references to Ex. 1007 in
`
`the original 60-page petition.
`
`1. Background
`
`Petitioner OpenTV filed a petition for inter partes review of Patent
`
`No. 6,744,892 B2 that includes a 60-page petition and eight (8) exhibits
`
`(labeled as Ex. 1001 to Ex. 1008) on June 4, 2013, which has been accorded
`
`by the PTAB the filing date of June 4, 2013 in the June 6 Notice.
`
`Ex. 1007 is a 12-page document for “Claim Charts for Independent
`
`Claims 1, 12, 20 and 26”which provides references to specific locations of
`
`relevant support in the cited prior art for Claims 1, 12, 20 and 26. Ex. 1007
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`
`Case IPR2013-00328
`Patent No. 6,744,892 B2
`
`is provided solely for the convenience of the PTAB in checking the specific
`
`sections in the cited prior art in review of the petition. Due to the inclusion
`
`of Ex. 1007 in the original filing, PTAB issued the following notice in its
`
`June 6 Notice:
`
`
`
`2. Request for Excluding and Not Considering Ex. 1007
`
`Petitioner OpenTV included Ex. 1007 in the initial filing on June 4,
`
`2013 solely for the convenience of the PTAB in checking the specific
`
`sections in the cited prior art in review of the petition. The originally filed
`
`60-page petition includes references to Ex. 1007 but its content is fully self-
`
`explanatory, independent of references to Ex. 1007.
`
`Accordingly, in full compliance with the 60-page limit under 37
`
`C.F.R. §42.24, Petitioner OpenTV requests the PTAB to exclude Ex. 1007
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`
`Case IPR2013-00328
`Patent No. 6,744,892 B2
`
`and not to consider Ex. 1007 in the inter partes review of Patent No.
`
`6,744,892 B2.
`
`3. Submission of Corrected Petition Removing References to Ex. 1007
`
`In this response, Petitioner OpenTV further submits a corrected
`
`petition to the PTAB for replacing and substituting the original 60-page
`
`petition. In this newly submitted corrected petition, all references to Ex.
`
`1007 in the original 60-page petition filed on June 4, 2013 have been
`
`removed. Specifically, all references to Ex. 1007 in the original 60-page
`
`petition filed on June 4, 2013 have been removed at the following pages and
`
`line numbers: Page 32, lines 13-14; Page 34, lines 1-2 and 19-20; Page 42,
`
`lines 6-7 and 15-16; Page 43, lines 11-12; and Page 44, lines 6-7. No other
`
`changes have been made in the newly submitted corrected petition.
`
`The newly submitted corrected petition references the following seven
`
`(7) exhibits as listed in the revised Exhibit List:
`
`Ex. 1001: U.S. Patent No. 6,744,892 B2 to Akins, III et al. (“the 892
`
`Patent”) (50 pages);
`
`Ex. 1002: Wasilewski, A. J., “ISO/IEC JTC1/SC20/WG11,
`
`Requirements and Method for High-Level Multiplexing of
`
`MPEG and Other Digital Service Bitstreams with
`
`
`
`4
`
`

`
`Case IPR2013-00328
`Patent No. 6,744,892 B2
`
`
`Universal Transport Layer", Nov. 1992 (“Wasilewski
`
`’92”) (29 pages);
`
`Ex. 1003: U.S. Patent No. 5,506,904 to Sheldrick et al. (“Sheldrick”)
`
`(24 pages);
`
`Ex. 1004: U.S. Patent No. 5,432,542 to Thibadeau et al.
`
`(“Thibadeau”) (17 pages);
`
`Ex. 1005: Portions of the prosecution file history of related U.S.
`
`Patent No. 6,252,964 B1 (69 pages);
`
`Ex. 1006: Declaration of Alan Young (92 pages); and
`
`Ex. 1008: U.S. Patent No. 5,870,474 to Wasilewski et al. (“the 474
`
`Patent”) (34 pages).
`
`Accordingly, in full compliance with the 60-page limit under 37
`
`C.F.R. §42.24, the Petitioner OpenTV requests the PTAB to use the
`
`corrected petition in the inter partes review of Patent No. 6,744,892 B2.
`
`4. Conclusion
`
`Petitioner OpenTV respectfully submits that the above response and
`
`the newly submitted corrected petition have fully corrected the defect as
`
`stated in the PTAB’s June 6 Notice. As such, this petition is now in full
`
`compliance with the 60-page limit under 37 C.F.R. §42.24.
