`
`
`
`PATENT OWNER’S OBJECTION TO THE SUPPLEMENTAL
`DECLARATION OF MR. KLAUSNER
`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), TriPlay, Inc. (“Patent Owner”) hereby
`
`objects to the Supplemental Declaration of Mr. Klausner dated September 21, 2015
`
`(“the Klausner Supplemental Declaration”).
`
`At paragraph 3, Mr. Klausner asserts that the ground for submitting the
`
`Klausner Supplemental Declaration in response to Patent Owner’s Objections to
`
`Evidence Submitted in the Petition, dated September 4, 2015 (“the PO
`
`Objections”) was that:
`
`The definition of a person of ordinary skill in the
`art set forth in the Objections differs from the one
`that I adopted in my original declaration.
`
`Patent Owner notes that Mr. Klausner’s above assertion is incorrect. On the
`
`contrary, in PO Objections, the Patent Owner did not offer its own definition for a
`
`person of ordinary skill in the art at the time of the ‘475 patent (“a POSITA”), the
`
`Patent Owner merely summarized for convenience Mr. Klausner’s testimony over
`
`several sentences regarding a POSITA at paragraph 10 of Mr. Klausner’s original
`
`declaration filed with the petition.1 Consequently, since the Patent Owner did not
`
`offer its own definition for a POSITA in PO Objections, the submission of the
`
`Klausner Supplemental Declaration is improper and whatever alleged evidence is
`
`proffered by it should have been timely included with the filing of the petition.
`
`
`1 This should not waive Patent Owner’s right to provide a different definition for a
`POSITA at an appropriate time.
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`
`Consequently, being improper, the Klausner Supplemental Declaration should be
`
`excluded from being entertained in this proceeding.
