`PETITIONER’S MOTION FOR PRO HAC VICE
`ADMISSION PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(C)
`
`
`1 The instant proceeding has been joined with IPR2014-00799.
`
`

`

`Petitioner’s Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission
`IPR2014-01042 (U.S. 7,808,184)
`
`
`
`
`I.
`
`Relief Requested
`
`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice admission is filed solely on behalf of
`
`Petitioner GLOBALFOUNDRIES U.S., Inc., GLOBALFOUNDRIES Dresden
`
`Module One LLC & Co. KG, and GLOBALFOUNDRIES Dresden Module Two
`
`LLC & Co. KG (collectively, “GlobalFoundries” or “Petitioner”).
`
`GlobalFoundries respectfully requests that the Board recognize Mr. Brett C.
`
`Rismiller as counsel pro hac vice during this proceeding.
`
`II. 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. IPR2014-00799, Paper No. 11.
`
`III. Statement of Facts Showing Good Cause for the Board to Recognize
`Counsel Pro Hac Vice During the Proceedings
`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. Tennant, USPTO Reg. No. 48,362; and
`
`Backup Counsel: Dohm Chankong, USPTO Reg. No. 70,524
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), the Board may recognize counsel
`
`pro hac vice during a proceeding upon a showing of good cause, subject to the
`
`condition that lead counsel be a registered practitioner and to any other conditions
`
`
`
`1
`
`

`

`that the Board may impose. The facts here establish good cause for the Board to
`
`Petitioner’s Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission
`IPR2014-01042 (U.S. 7,808,184)
`
`
`recognize Brett C. Rismiller pro hac vice on behalf of Petitioner during this
`
`proceeding.
`
`In summary, Mr. Rismiller 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
`
`involved in the depositions that occur in this proceeding. Specifically, U.S. Patent
`
`No. 7,808,184 is currently asserted against Petitioner in co-pending litigation, in
`
`the District of Massachusetts, 1:13-cv-11577-LTS (Zond v. AMD, et al.) (“the co-
`
`pending litigation”). Mr. Rismiller is a member of the California bar in good
`
`standing and works closely with the team representing the Petitioner in the co-
`
`pending litigation.
`
`Mr. Rismiller 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. 7,808,184. Petitioner
`
`wishes to apply Mr. Rismiller’s knowledge of the patent by employing him as
`
`counsel in this proceeding. Admission of Mr. Rismiller pro hac vice will enable
`
`Petitioner to avoid unnecessary expense and duplication of work between this
`
`proceeding and the co-pending litigation.

`

`
`Rismiller 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. Rismiller as counsel pro hac
`
`vice during this proceeding.
