`IPR2015-00631 (Patent 7,392,300 B2)
`
`
`Petitioner, ServiceNow, Inc., moves for pro hac vice admission of
`
`Mr. Mark R. Weinstein. IPR2015-00523, Paper 8; IPR2015-00631, Paper 7.
`
`Petitioner provides affidavits from Mr. Weinstein in support of its motions.
`
`IPR2015-00523, Ex. 1009; IPR2015-00631, Ex. 1010. Patent Owner,
`
`Hewlett-Packard, Co., has not filed an opposition to Petitioner’s motions.
`
`Based on the facts set forth in the motions and the accompanying
`
`affidavits from Mr. Weinstein, we conclude that Mr. Weinstein has
`
`sufficient legal and technical qualifications to represent Petitioner in these
`
`cases, that Mr. Weinstein has demonstrated the necessary familiarity with
`
`the subject matter of these cases, and that there is a need for Petitioner to
`
`have counsel with experience as a litigation attorney in patent matters
`
`involved in these cases. Accordingly, Petitioner has established good cause
`
`for Mr. Weinstein’s pro hac vice admission. Mr. Weinstein will be
`
`permitted to appear pro hac vice in these cases as back-up counsel only. See
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c).
`
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is hereby:
`
`ORDERED that Petitioner’s motions for pro hac vice admission of
`
`Mr. Mark R. Weinstein are granted, and Mr. Weinstein is authorized to
`
`represent Petitioner as back-up counsel in these cases;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner continue to have a registered
`
`practitioner as lead counsel in these cases;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Weinstein comply with the Office
`
`Patent Trial Practice Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials, as
`
`set forth in Title 37, Part 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations;
`
`2
`
`
`
`IPR2015-00523 (Patent 6,321,229 B1)
`IPR2015-00631 (Patent 7,392,300 B2)
`
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Weinstein is subject to the Office’s
`
`disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a), and to the USPTO
`
`Rules of Professional Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq.; and
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Paper 7 in IPR2015-00523 and Paper 6 in
`
`IPR2015-00631 are expunged.
