`Patent 8,765,167 B2
`
`
`
`Petitioner and Patent Owner each have requested a consolidated oral
`hearing pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70 for all of the captioned proceedings.
`IPR2015-00165, Papers 47 and 49; IPR2015-00168, Papers 47 and 48;
`IPR2015-00169, Papers 47 and 48. The requests for a consolidated oral
`hearing are granted, with the understanding that the hearing and content of
`each party’s oral argument will be in accordance with the remainder of this
`Order. Oral arguments will commence at 1:00 PM Eastern Time on
`February 12, 2016, on the ninth floor of Madison Building East, 600 Dulany
`Street, Alexandria, Virginia.
`
`Petitioner and Patent Owner each will have one hour to present
`arguments. Petitioner bears the ultimate burden of proof that the claims at
`issue in this review are unpatentable. Petitioner will, therefore, open the
`hearing by presenting its case regarding the challenged claims for which the
`Board instituted trial. Patent Owner will then respond to Petitioner’s
`arguments. Petitioner may reserve time to reply to arguments presented by
`Patent Owner.
`Demonstratives are aids in support of oral argument and are not
`evidence in this proceeding. They will not become part of the official record
`of this review other than via the transcript of oral argument. Under 37
`C.F.R. § 42.70(b), the parties shall serve any demonstrative exhibits upon
`each other at least five business days prior to the hearing date. The parties
`also shall provide a courtesy copy of any demonstrative exhibits to the
`Board at least five business days prior to the hearing by emailing them to
`Trials@uspto.gov. The parties shall not file any demonstrative exhibits in
`this proceeding without prior authorization from the Board. A hard copy of
`the demonstratives should be provided to the court reporter at the hearing.

`Patent 8,673,550 B2
`
`
`The parties may refer to CBS Interactive Inc. v. Helferich Patent
`Licensing, LLC, IPR2013-00033 (PTAB October 23, 2013) (Paper 118), and
`St. Jude Medical, Cardiology Div., Inc. v. The Board of Regents of the
`University of Michigan, IPR2013-00041 (PTAB Jan. 27, 2014) (Paper 65)
`regarding the appropriate content of demonstrative exhibits. Any issue
`regarding demonstrative exhibits should be resolved at least two business
`days prior to the hearing by way of a joint telephone conference call to the
`Board. The parties are responsible for requesting such a conference
`sufficiently in advance of the hearing to accommodate this requirement.
`Any objection to demonstrative exhibits that is not timely presented will be
`considered waived.
`The hearing will be open to the public for in-person attendance that
`will be accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis. The Board will
`provide a court reporter, and the transcript shall constitute the official record
`of the hearing. The parties are reminded that each presenter must identify
`clearly and specifically each demonstrative exhibit, e.g., by slide or screen
`number, referenced during the oral hearing to ensure the clarity and accuracy
`of the reporter’s transcript.
`
`The Board expects lead counsel for each party to be present in person
`at the oral hearing. Any counsel of record, however, may present the party’s
`argument. If either party anticipates that its lead counsel will not be
`attending the oral argument, the parties should initiate a joint telephone
`conference with the Board no later than two business days prior to the oral
`hearing to discuss the matter.
