`IPR2014-00518
`Patent 8,023,580 B2
`
`
`On October 15, 2014, an initial conference call was held between
`respective counsel for the parties and Judges Lee, Blankenship, and Busch.
`Both parties filed a list of proposed motions. Papers 18, 19. Neither list
`identifies a motion intended to be filed at this time. The parties state that
`they reserve the right to seek authorization to file motions, as necessary. We
`explained that if a party possesses rights, it is not necessary to “reserve”
`them, and that if no such right exists, none would be created by reservation.
`Both parties indicate that they have no need for the Board to change
`Due Date 5 or Due Date 6, as set forth in the Scheduling Order dated
`September 23, 2014. Paper 17. We instructed the parties not to include in
`any Motion to Exclude Evidence arguments alleging that a reply or evidence
`in support of a reply exceeds the proper scope of a reply. If that issue arises,
`the parties should initiate a joint telephone conference call with the Board to
`discuss an appropriate resolution.
`Counsel for Petitioner indicated that Petitioner soon may be filing
`another petition directed to claims of Patent 8,023,580 which are not
`challenged in this Petition, and may be filing a Motion for Joinder to join
`that proceeding with this one. That Motion for Joinder should be filed in the
`new proceeding, not this one. We asked Petitioner to notify Patent Owner as
`well as this panel as soon as that petition has been filed.
`
`It is
`
`ORDERED that all due dates set in the Scheduling Order dated
`September 23, 2014 (Paper 17), remain unchanged as a result of the initial
`conference call on October 15, 2014.
