`
`
`PETITIONER’S REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Case IPR2015-01175
`U.S. Patent No. 8,288,952
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70, the Board’s Scheduling Order dated
`
`November 17, 2015 (Paper 9), and the Notice of Stipulation to Extend Due Dates
`
`4-5 dated June 23, 2016 (Paper 22), Petitioner Apple Inc. and Motorola Mobility
`
`LLC (collectively, “Petitioner”) respectfully requests oral argument on issues
`
`related to the patentability of claims 1-4, 14, 16, 17, 19, 22-24, 26, 27, and 38-40
`
`of U.S. Patent No. 8,288,952 (“’952 patent”) on the instituted grounds set forth in
`
`the Board’s Decision (Paper 8) and on any issues specified in any motions to
`
`exclude or motions for observation regarding cross-examination of reply witnesses
`
`filed by the parties. The Board has previously scheduled the oral argument for
`
`August 3, 2016. (Paper 9.)
`
`The Board has also scheduled hearings in the following five related cases on
`
`the same date (August 3, 2016):
`
`• IPR2015-01171 (U.S. Patent No. 7,994,726) (“’726 patent”);
`
`• IPR2015-01172 (U.S. Patent No. 7,498,749) (“’749 patent”);
`
`• IPR2015-01173 (U.S. Patent No. 7,329,970) (“’970 patent”);
`
`• IPR2015-01174 (U.S. Patent No. 7,781,980) (“’980 patent”); and
`
`• IPR2015-01603 (U.S. Patent No. 7,498,749) (“’749 patent”).
`
`The ’726, ’749, ’970, ’980, and ’952 patents are directed to similar
`
`technologies. The six trials will therefore involve overlapping issues and
`
`arguments. Thus, Petitioner requests that the Board provide a consolidated oral
`
`1
`
`
`
`Case IPR2015-01175
`U.S. Patent No. 8,288,952
`
`argument for all six trials in which Petitioners are given two hours to present their
`
`arguments, including any time reserved for rebuttal arguments.
`
`Petitioner respectfully requests that the hearing be held in Room A, in order
`
`to accommodate the three law firms representing the three Petitioners across the
`
`six cases (Apple Inc., Motorola Mobility LLC, and Toshiba America Information
`
`Systems, Inc.) and the three law firms representing Patent Owner across the six
`
`cases, as well as client representatives who may wish to attend. Petitioner requests
`
`permission to use a computer, projector, and screen to display demonstratives and
`
`exhibits. Petitioner also requests that four attorneys at Petitioner’s counsel’s table
`
`be allowed to use computers.
