`
`
`PATENT OWNER’S LIST OF PROPOSED MOTIONS
`
`Pursuant to the Scheduling Order (Paper No. 9) and the Trial Practice Guide
`
`(77 C.F.R. 48756 et seq.), Patent Owner proposes to file the following motions:
`
`A. Motion for Additional Discovery regarding Real Parties in Interest
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.51(b)(2), a motion for additional discovery on the
`
`issue of real party in interest. As noted in the Mandatory Notices, the following
`
`lawsuits involve the patent under review:
`
`• 3:13-cv-04201-JMD (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v. Apple
`
`Inc.
`
`• 3:13-cv-04202-SI (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v. Facebook,
`
`Inc.
`
`• 3:13-cv-04203-MMC (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v.
`
`Foursquare Labs, Inc.
`
`• 3:13-cv-04204-SI (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v. Groupon,
`
`Inc.
`
`• 3:13-cv-04205-WHO (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v.
`
`LivingSocial, Inc.
`
`• 3:13-cv-04206-EJD (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v.
`
`Millennial Media, Inc.
`
`• 5:13-cv-04513-RMW (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v. Sprint
`
`Nextel Corporation et al.
`
`

`

`
`
`• 3:13-cv-04207-JSW (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v. Twitter,
`
`Inc.
`
`• 4:13-cv-03587-DMR (N.D. Cal.) Evolutionary Intelligence, LLC v. Yelp,
`
`Inc.
`
`Petitioner has coordinated its defense efforts with the other defendants in the
`
`above actions. Although most cases were stayed prior to invalidity contentions
`
`being served, the Sprint defendants served invalidity contentions that overlap
`
`considerably with positions asserted by Apple in the five petitions for inter partes
`
`review (2014-00079; -00080; -00082; -00083; and -00085) filed concurrently with
`
`this case, as well as the concurrent petitions filed by Facebook (No. 2014-00093)
`
`and Yelp and Twitter (2014-00092).
`
`Accordingly, Patent Owner requests authorization to file a motion for
`
`additional discovery concerning the relationship between Petitioner and the other
`
`defendants with respect to their participation in and control over the preparation of
`
`the Petition upon which the current trial was instituted.
`
`Patent Owner cannot currently request discovery in the respective district
`
`court proceedings of any agreements between Petitioner and the other defendants
`
`due to stays of all concurrent litigation. Patent Owner is seeking to lift the stays in
`
`some of those proceedings, but such agreements are not presently available to
`
`counsel representing Patent Owner in this inter partes review trial.

`
`

`

`
`
`B. Motion for Additional Discovery re: Prior Testimony
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.51(b)(2), Patent Owner may file a motion for
`
`additional discovery regarding Mr. Houh’s testimony in other matters.
`
`C. Motion to Amend
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.121, a contingent motion to amend the patent
`
`under review by substituting two claims for each and every claim found by the
`
`Board to be unpatentable on a ground specified in the decision instituting inter
`
`partes review (Paper No. 8). Patent Owner understands that, under 37 C.F.R. §
`
`42.121(a)(3), the Board normally only allows a single substitute claim for each
`
`claim found to be unpatentable. In this case, however, the claims found
`
`unpatentable are multiply dependent on claims 1 and 2. As such, Patent Owner
`
`will seek to substitute two claims for each multiply dependent claim (i.e., one for
`
`each independent claim from which the multiply dependent claim depends). Patent
`
`Owner expects that the proposed substitute claims for claim 1 (which is not under
`
`review in this proceeding) will amend to limit each dependent claim to depending
`
`from claim 1, but contain no other amendments. The second set of proposed
`
`claims will depend from claim 2 and will contain other proposed amendments, not
`
`yet determined.
`
`D. Motion for Observation on Cross-Examination
`
`Patent Owner may also file a motion for observation on cross-examination at
`
`the appropriate time.

`

`
`
`E. Motion to File Corrected Exhibit 2002
`
`Patent Owner wishes to correct Exhibit 2002, which should contain excerpts
`
`from the Oxford Dictionary of Computing Terms. Patent Owner inadvertently
`
`submitted a PDF with pages from other documents as part of this exhibit, and
`
`wishes to file a corrected PDF.
`
`
`
`Respectfully Submitted,
