`
`PETITIONERS’ MOTION FOR PRO HAC VICE ADMISSION
`PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(C)
`
`1 Cases IPR 2014-00863, IPR 2014-01013, and IPR 2014-01057 have been joined
`with the instant proceeding.
`
`
`
`Petitioners’ Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission
`IPR2014-00821 (U.S. 6,853,142)
`
`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice admission is filed solely on behalf of Taiwan
`
`Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Ltd. and TSMC North America
`
`Corporation (collectively “TSMC” or “Petitioner”). TSMC respectfully moves
`
`that the Board recognize Mr. Anthony J. Fitzpatrick as counsel pro hac vice during
`
`this proceeding.
`
`1. Time for Filing
`
`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission is being filed no sooner than
`
`twenty one (21) days after service of the petition. (IPR2013-00639, Paper No. 7).
`
`2. Statement of Facts Showing Good Cause for Counsel Pro Hac Vice
`
`Petitioner has been authorized to file motions seeking admission pro hac
`
`vice under 37 C.F.R. 42.10(c). (Paper No. 3). Petitioner’s lead and back-up
`
`counsel are registered practitioners:
`
`Lead Counsel:
`
`David M. O’Dell, USPTO Reg. No. 42,044; and
`
`Backup Counsel: David L. McCombs, USPTO Reg. No. 32,271.
`
`The following statement of facts shows that there is good cause for the
`
`Board to recognize Mr. Fitzpatrick pro hac vice on behalf of Petitioner.
`
`In summary, Mr. Fitzpatrick is an experienced litigator, has established
`
`familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this proceeding from his participation
`
`in co-pending litigation involving the subject patent, and if admitted, will be
`
`–1–
`
`
`
`Petitioners’ Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission
`IPR2014-00821 (U.S. 6,853,142)
`
`involved in the depositions that occur in this proceeding. Specifically, U.S. Patent
`
`No. 6,853,142 is currently asserted against Petitioner in co-pending litigation, in
`
`the District of Massachusetts, 1:13-cv-11634-WGY (Zond v. Fujitsu, et al.) (“the
`
`co-pending litigation”). Mr. Fitzpatrick is a member of the Massachusetts bar in
`
`good standing, and is representing the Petitioner, in the co-pending litigation.
`
`Mr. Fitzpatrick has analyzed prior art references and claim charts in
`
`connection with invalidity contentions and has been involved in forming claim
`
`construction positions related to the claimed inventions, all of which are relevant to
`
`the petition requesting inter partes review of U.S. Patent No. 6,853,142. Petitioner
`
`wishes to apply Mr. Fitzpatrick’s knowledge of the patent by employing him as
`
`counsel in this proceeding. Admission of Mr. Fitzpatrick pro hac vice will enable
`
`Petitioner to avoid unnecessary expense and duplication of work between this
`
`proceeding and the co-pending litigation.
`
`Petitioner’s lead and backup counsel are registered practitioners and Mr.
`
`Fitzpatrick is an experienced litigation attorney having familiarity with the subject
`
`matter at issue in this proceeding. Therefore, Petitioners respectfully submit that
`
`there is good cause for the Board to recognize Mr. Fitzpatrick as counsel pro hac
`
`vice during this proceeding.
