`
`Case IPR20 15-00092
`U.S. Patent No. 6,546,002
`Patent Owner Intellectual Ventures II LLC hereby objects under the Federal
`
`Rules ofEvidence ("PRE") and 37 C.P.R. § 42.62 to the admissibility ofthe
`
`following evidence submitted by International Business Machines Corporation
`
`("Petitioner") in support of its petition for inter partes review pursuant to 35
`
`U.S.C. §§ 311-319. Patent Owner serves Petitioner with these objections to provide
`
`notice that Patent Owner may move to exclude the challenged exhibits under 3 7
`
`C.P.R.§ 42.64(c) unless Petitioner cures the defects associated with the challenged
`
`exhibits identified herein.
`
`Exhibit 1001- Declaration of Henry A. Lieberman
`
`Patent Owner objects to this document as irrelevant under PRE 401 and thus
`
`inadmissible under PRE 402, or as confusing or a waste of time under PRE 403,
`
`because cited portions, specifically~~ 56, 170-182, 324-343, and 359-370 are not
`
`relevant to any issues remaining in this proceeding.
`
`To the extent Petitioner relies on the contents of this document for the truth
`
`of the matter asserted, Patent Owner objects to such contents as inadmissible
`
`hearsay under PRE 801 and 802 that does not fall under any exception, including
`
`those ofFRE 803, 804, 805 or 807.
`
`Patent Owner objects to the declaration under Fed. R. Evid. 702 and 703.
`
`The declarant's testimony does not help the trier of fact understand the evidence or
`
`determine a fact in issue. The testimony is based on insufficient information. The
`
`- 1 -
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-00092
`U.S. Patent No. 6,546,002
`testimony is the product of unreliable principles and methods applied to the facts.
`
`Qualified experts in the relevant field would not reasonably rely upon the kinds of
`
`information alleged to support the declarant's opinion. Specifically,~~ 61-389,
`
`purportedly relating to the instituted grounds in this proceeding, consist of
`
`conclusory statements regarding the alleged prior art and unpatentability grounds.
`
`The testimony relies on improper evidence under FRE 401, 801, and 1002-1003 -
`
`as the prejudicial effect of this evidence outweighs any probative value that it may
`
`have. E.g., Lieberman Decl. ~~ 5, 49-55, 170-182, 324-343, and 359-370.
`
`Exhibit 1005- USPTO Assignments on the Web for U.S. Patent No. 6,546,002
`
`To the extent Petitioner relies on the contents of this document for the truth
`
`of the assignment details listed on the face of the document, Patent Owner objects
`
`to such contents as inadmissible hearsay under FRE 801 and 802 that does not fall
`
`under any exception, including those ofFRE 803, 804, 805 or 807. See Lieberman
`
`Decl. ~ 5.
`
`To the extent Petitioner relies on the contents of this document to prove the
`
`content of the original document, Patent Owner objects to this document as not
`
`being an original document under FRE 1002, an authentic duplicate under FRE
`
`1003, nor a document that falls under any exception to the original-document
`
`requirement, including those ofFRE 1004.

`
`Patent Owner objects to this document as irrelevant under FRE 401 and thus

`1003, nor a document that falls under any exception to the original-document
`
`requirement, including those ofFRE 1004.
`
`Exhibit 1007- Richardson Proof of Publication and Public Availability

`To the extent Petitioner relies on the contents of this document for the truth
`
`of the date purportedly shown on the document, Patent Owner objects to such
`
`contents as inadmissible hearsay under FRE 801 and 802 that does not fall under
