`Conduct of Proceedings
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`

`
`
`
`
`
`Case IPR2014-00439
`Patent 7,365,871 B2
`
`On January 15, 2015, a telephone conference was held. The participants
`
`were respective counsel for the parties and Judges Lee and Anderson. Counsel for
`petitioner initiated the call because the extendable deadlines in the Board’s
`Scheduling Order (Paper 17) are approaching the fixed deadlines in the Scheduling
`Order. For instance, the time for Petitioner to file a Reply (Time Period 3) expires
`on January 16, 2015, and Patent Owner has not yet made its witness available for
`cross-examination. At issue is the Declaration of Winston Ninh (Exhibit 2015),
`that is relied on by Patent owner in the Patent Owner Response (Paper 24).
`
`After discussion with the Board, counsel for Patent Owner agreed that unless
`Mr. Winston Ninh is made available for cross-examination by Petitioner by
`January 22, 2015, the declaration of Winston Ninh, relied on by the Patent Owner
`in the Patent Owner’s Response, will not be considered by the Board.
`It is
`ORDERED that if Mr. Winston Ninh is not made available for cross-
`examination by January 22, 2015, then his declaration (Exhibit 2015) will not be
`considered by the Board.
