`_______________
`
`PETITONERS' OBJECTIONS TO PATENT OWNER'S EVIDENCE
`PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1)
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioners submit the following objections to the
`
`evidence served by Patent Owner on December 16, 2015 as Supplemental Evidence.
`
`
`
`Petitioners object to Exhibit 2026, Transcript for the Deposition of Michael J. Marentic
`
`conducted on October 6, 2015, in IPR2015-00021, as improper supplemental evidence under 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(2). Supplemental evidence must be relevant to an objection made by an
`
`opposing party under 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1). Exhibit 2026 consists of 165 pages of cross
`
`examination testimony of an expert witness in another, unrelated proceeding, IPR2015-00021.
`
`Patent Owner draws no connection between any of this testimony, much less the entire 165
`
`pages, and any of the objections to admissibility made by Petitioners to the evidence submitted
`
`with Patent Owner’s Response.
`
`Petitioners further object to Exhibit 2026 under Fed. R. Evid. 802 as Mr. Marentic’s
`
`testimony is inadmissible hearsay. Mr. Marentic did not testify on direct (through a declaration)
`
`at the current trial, i.e., IPR2015-00863, but instead testified at an unrelated trial, IPR2015-
`
`00021, and was cross examined at a deposition in that unrelated trial. Petitioners in this trial are
`
`not parties in IPR2015-00021, were not present at the deposition of Mr. Marentic, and did not
`
`have the opportunity to question Mr. Marentic. Although Patent Owner has not identified how it
`
`is relying on Mr. Marentic’s deposition testimony, it appears that Mr. Marentic’s deposition
`
`testimony is being offered by Patent Owner to prove the truth of the matter asserted therein.
`
`
`
`Petitioners also object to Exhibit 2026 under Fed. R. Evid. 402. Patent Owner has
`
`neither identified the specific parts of the exhibit upon which it relies, nor the specific purpose
`
`for which it relies on the exhibit. Thus, Patent Owner has not established how Exhibit 2026 is
`
`relevant to its arguments, or even to this proceeding.
