`
`Dear Judges Busch, Pettigrew, and Shaw,
`
`Petitioner requests a teleconference to request permission to file 14 corrected expert declarations adding an
`inadvertently omitted penalty of perjury warning pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 1.68. The declarations at issue are all by
`Petitioner’s expert Dr. Horenstein, who at all times, in the 14 declarations and in 3 depositions, understood he was
`under oath subject to the penalties for perjury. The circumstances of Petitioner’s request is best explained with
`reference to two groups of declarations:
`
`Group 1: IPRs 2015‐1023 (2 declarations), 2015‐1928 (1 declaration), 2016‐0158 (1 declaration), and the opening
`declarations for IPRs 2015‐1147,48,49,50, and 51 (5 declarations).
`
`Group 2: Reply declarations for IPRs 2015‐1147,48,49,50, and 51 (5 declarations).
`
`
`1
`
`MICROSOFT EXHIBIT 1023
`Microsoft v. Global Touch, IPR2015-01149
`
`
`
`With respect to Group 1, Patent Owner never objected to any of these declarations, and never questioned the expert in
`depositions with regard to the inadvertently omitted warning. In connection with the 9 Group 1 declarations, Petitioner
`requests to file 9 corrected declarations that would be identical except that they would add the inadvertently omitted
`perjury warning.
`
`With respect to Group 2, Patent Owner objected to 2 of the 5 declarations (1148 and 1149). This is how Petitioner
`became aware of the inadvertent omission. In response, Petitioner served two corrected declarations as supplemental
`evidence. Following that service, Patent Owner deposed Petitioner’s expert and questioned the expert about the
`original and corrected declarations. During the deposition, Petitioner’s expert testified that there was an unrelated
`typographical error in the Group 2 declarations—a transposition of a “520” for a “516.” Petitioner seeks to file
`corrected versions of the 5 Group 2 declarations, but does not want to prejudice Patent Owner’s ability to argue the
`significance of the 520‐516 error, or prejudice Patent Owner’s ability to refer to the uncorrected declarations that
`Petitioner’s expert was questioned about. Petitioner thus requests that it be permitted to file corrected versions of the
`Group 2 declarations that would add (i) the perjury warning and (ii) a new paragraph reiterating the deposition
`testimony that the “520” is an error (without removing the error itself). Petitioner believes that this correction would
`allow the inadvertently omitted perjury warning to be added, and would preserve the original “520” error in the
`declaration, so that Patent Owner is free to refer to it in its arguments.
`
`Patent Owner opposes Petitioner’s requests with respect to both Group 1 and Group 2. Counsel for the parties have met
`and conferred but have been unable to resolve the dispute. Counsel for the parties are available at your convenience
`any time on Thursday, July 7 and Friday, July 8.
`
`Best regards,
`John Murphy
