`
`On May 29, 2015, we instituted the above-identified inter partes
`reviews. Paper 15.2 Both parties requested an oral hearing pursuant to
`37 C.F.R. § 42.70. Papers 28 and 31. The parties’ requests are granted.
`Each party will have ninety minutes of total time to present its arguments.
`The hearing will commence at 1:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, on January
`19, 2016.
`At the oral hearing, Petitioner will proceed first to present its case as
`to the challenged claims and grounds the Board instituted trial. Thereafter,
`Patent Owner will respond to Petitioner’s case. Petitioner may reserve some
`of its argument time for use in further presentation after Patent Owner has
`responded to Petitioner’s initial presentation on all matters.
`
`The hearing will be open to the public for in-person attendance, on the
`ninth floor of Madison Building East, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria,
`Virginia. In-person attendance will be accommodated on a first-come, first-
`served basis. The Board will provide a court reporter for the hearing, and
`the reporter’s transcript will constitute the official record of the hearing.
`
`Under 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(b), demonstrative exhibits must be served no
`later than five business days before the hearing. They shall be filed with the
`Board no later than three business days prior to the hearing. The parties
`must initiate a conference call with the Board at least two business days

`prior to the hearing to resolve any dispute over the propriety of each party’s
`demonstrative exhibits. For guidance on what constitutes an appropriate
`demonstrative exhibit, the parties are directed to CBS Interactive Inc., v.
`Helferich Patent Licensing, LLC, Case IPR2013-00033 (PTAB
`Oct. 23, 2013) (Paper 118).
`
`The Board expects lead counsel for each party to be present at oral
`hearing, although any backup counsel may make the actual presentation, in
`whole or in part. If lead counsel for either party is unable to attend the oral
`argument, the Board should be notified via a joint telephone conference call
`no later than two business days prior to the oral hearing to discuss the
`matter.
`Requests for audio-visual equipment are to be made at least five
`business days in advance of the hearing date by sending the request to
`Trials@uspto.gov. If the request is not received timely, the equipment may
`not be available on the day of the hearing.
