`
`On February 12, 2016, Patent Owner served Exhibits 2247 – 2257 and filed
`
`an Updated Exhibit List. See IPR2015-00902, Paper 49. On February 16, 2016,
`
`Patent Owner served Exhibits 2258 – 2263 and filed an additional Updated Exhibit
`
`2
`
`

`
`List. See IPR2015-00902, Paper 50. Petitioner objects to Patent Owner’s use of
`
`and/or reliance on the above-identified exhibits as untimely and without justification
`
`for delay.
`
`Patent Owner failed to seek authorization under 37 C.F.R. § 42.123(b) for its
`
`late submission of supplemental information. See Handi-Quilter, Inc. v. Bernina
`
`Int’l AG, Case IPR2013-00364, Paper 30 at 3 (PTAB June 12, 2014) (noting that
`
`supplemental information “may only be filed if a § 123 motion is both authorized
`
`and granted.”).1 Specifically, 37 C.F.R. § 42.123(b) mandates that a party must first
`
`seek authorization from the Board to file a motion to submit supplemental
`
`information, and that any authorized motion to submit information more than one
`
`month after trial is instituted “must show why the supplemental
`
`information
`
`reasonably could not have been obtained earlier . . . .” In addition to its failures in
`
`seeking authorization and filing a motion to submit the supplemental information,
`
`Patent Owner has provided no justification for its late submission, nor has Patent
`
`1 While Petitioner recognizes that Patent Owner did not file the exhibits identified
`
`herein and only served such exhibits, while filing Updated Exhibit Lists, Petitioner
`
`objects to the extent such course of action was intended to evade the mandates of 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.123.
`
`3
`
`

`
`Owner provided an explanation for why such supplemental information could not
`
`have been obtained and disclosed earlier, as required under § 42.123(b).
`
`In particular, each of the above-identified exhibits pertain to testing of Patent
`
`Owner’s own product, which product has been available to Patent Owner for testing
`
`long before the institution of trial in this proceeding. As a result, Petitioner
`
`respectfully requests that the Patent Trial and Appeal Board deny the admission and
`
`consideration of any of the above-identified exhibits, and additionally notes that any
`
`expert testimony on the subject matter offered by Patent Owner, to the extent
`
`admitted, should be afforded little or no weight under 37 C.F.R. § 42.65(a) as a result
`
`of Patent Owner’s failure to disclose the information earlier.
