`
`On February 20, 2015, Patent Owner filed a Motion for Pro Hac Vice
`
`Admission of Messrs. Kahn, Gilbertson, X. Kevin Zhao, and Ms. Dunlop
`
`(Papers 5-82) and an accompanying affidavit in support thereof (Exs. 2001–
`
`2004). Petitioner did not file an opposition to these motions.
`
`Upon consideration of the papers presented, Patent Owner has
`
`demonstrated sufficiently that Messrs. Kahn, Gilbertson, X. Kevin Zhao, and
`
`Ms. Dunlop have sufficient legal and technical qualifications to represent
`
`Patent Owner in this proceeding. See IPR2013-00639, Paper 7, “Order –
`
`Authorizing Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission.” Accordingly, Patent
`
`Owner has established that there is good cause for admitting Messrs. Kahn,
`
`Gilbertson, X. Kevin Zhao, and Ms. Dunlop. Messrs. Kahn, Gilbertson, X.
`
`Kevin Zhao, and Ms. Dunlop may only be designated as backup counsel.
`
`In consideration of the forgoing, it is
`
`ORDERED that Patent Owner’s unopposed motion for pro hac vice
`
`admission of Messrs. Kahn, Gilbertson, X. Kevin Zhao, and Ms. Dunlop is
`
`GRANTED; Messrs. Kahn, Gilbertson, X. Kevin Zhao, and Ms. Dunlop are
`
`authorized to represent Patent Owner only as back-up counsel in the instant
`
`proceeding;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Patent Owner is to continue to have a
`
`registered practitioner represent it as lead counsel for the instant proceeding;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Messrs. Kahn, Gilbertson, X. Kevin
`
`Zhao, and Ms. Dunlop are to comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice
`
`
`2 For expediency, IPR2014-00396 is representative and all subsequent
`citations are to IPR2014-00396 unless otherwise noted.
