`MOTION FOR PERMISSION FOR PERMISSION FOR COUNSEL
`TO WITHDRAW

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Patent Owner Global Touch Solutions, LLC (“PO” herein)
`
`respectfully moves for permission for its lead counsel, Steven B. Kelber
`
`(“Kelber” herein), to withdraw as counsel for PO in the above-captioned
`
`matter, pursuant to Rule 41.5(c).
`
`As provided for in 37 C.F.R. §11.116(a)(3), withdrawal is required
`
`because the client, PO, has discharged Kelber and terminated its engagement
`
`with him.
`
`Pursuant to the provisions of 37 C.F.R. §11.116(b), withdrawal can be
`
`accomplished without material adverse effect – competent replacement
`
`counsel has been identified and will be appointed upon grant of this Motion.
`
`Upon grant of this Motion, new lead counsel will be designated from
`
`counsel of record and additional counsel, and appropriate amended
`
`Mandatory Notices will be filed. See, Seoul Semiconductors Co., Ltd v
`
`Trustees of Boston University, 2013 WL 8596810 (PTAB 2013).
`
`With respect to the requirements of 37 C.F.R. §11.116(d),
`
`undersigned counsel has conferred with PO, and PO agrees that under the
`
`circumstances, withdrawal is appropriate and will not injure PO’s interests.
`
`Other counsel has been notified. Counsel for Petitioners has graciously
`
`indicated this Motion will not be opposed.
