`
`

`
`
`
`
`PETITIONER’S OBJECTIONS TO PATENT OWNER'S
`EVIDENCE UNDER 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1)
`
`
`
`
`
`
`

`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioner Microsoft Corporation
`
`PTAB Case No. IPR2015-01432
`Patent 7,139,794 B2
`
`
`
`
`(“Microsoft”) hereby timely objects to the evidence introduced for the first time by
`
`Patent Owner, Bradium Technologies LLC (“Bradium”) at the August 5, 2016
`
`deposition of Prof. William R. Michalson, and filed on August 10, 2016. The
`
`objections are based on 37 C.F.R. Part 42, and the relevant portions of Federal
`
`Rules of Evidence (“FRE”) that are applicable to IPR proceedings under 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 42.62. During the deposition testimony of Prof. Michalson, Microsoft objected
`
`to Bradium’s untimely use of such exhibits in this proceeding, and to the testimony
`
`obtained during the deposition related to such exhibits. Procedurally, Patent
`
`Owner Bradium is prohibited from submitting new evidence subsequent to filing of
`
`the Patent Owner Response (by Due Date 2) without first obtaining authorization
`
`from PTAB. 35 U.S.C. § 316(a)(8); 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.122 and 42.20.
`
`
`
`Microsoft’s specific objections to Bradium’s exhibits are:
`
`
`1.
`
`Exhibit 2002 (identified by Bradium as “DATA VISUALIZATION
`
`TECHNIQUES (John Wiley & Sons Ltd., C. Bajaj, Ed.), Page Proofs,
`
`including Chapter 1, Bajaj, C., Visualization Paradigms”) should be
`
`excluded for at least the following reasons: Bradium’s attempted
`
`introduction of this exhibit is untimely and irrelevant because it was not
`
`introduced in any substantive paper by Bradium and is an improper
`
`attempt to introduce new evidence, raise new issues or re-argue issues that
`
`1
`
`

`
`Bradium waived by failing to include them in its Patent Owner Response
`
`PTAB Case No. IPR2015-01432
`Patent 7,139,794 B2
`
`
`(see Paper 17 (Scheduling Order) at 3); the exhibit is not admissible under
`
`FRE 703 because it has not been relied upon by any expert in forming any
`
`opinion; the exhibit constitutes hearsay under FRE 801, 802, and 805; the
`
`exhibit lacks authentication under FRE 901, 902, and 903; the exhibit
`
`should also be excluded pursuant to FRE 401-403 because it is not
`
`relevant, and any probative value is substantially outweighed by unfair
`
`prejudice to Microsoft because Bradium unduly delayed disclosing the
`
`exhibits.
`
`
`2.
`
`Exhibit 2003 (identified by Bradium as “Bajaj, C. & Schikore, D.,
`
`Topology Preserving Data Simplification with Error Bounds (Preprint)”)
`
`should be excluded for at least the following reasons: Bradium’s
`
`attempted introduction of this exhibit is untimely and irrelevant because it
`
`was not introduced in any substantive paper by Bradium and is an
`
`improper attempt to introduce new evidence, raise new issues or re-argue
`
`issues that Bradium waived by failing to include them in its Patent Owner
`
`Response (see Paper 17 (Scheduling Order) at 3); the exhibit is not
`
`admissible under FRE 703 because it has not been relied upon by any
`
`expert in forming any opinion; the exhibit constitutes hearsay under FRE
`
`801, 802, and 805; the exhibit lacks authentication under FRE 901, 902,
`
`2
`
`

`
`and 903; the exhibit should also be excluded pursuant to FRE 401-403
`
`PTAB Case No. IPR2015-01432
`Patent 7,139,794 B2
`
`
`because it is not relevant, and any probative value is substantially
`
`outweighed by unfair prejudice to Microsoft because Bradium unduly
`
`delayed disclosing the exhibits. .
`
`
`3.
`
`Exhibit 2004 (identified by Bradium as “Expert Report of William R.
`
`Michalson, Visteon Global Techs., Inc. v. Garmin Int’l, Inc., 10-cv-10578,
`
`D.I. 157-2, dated Sept. 29, 2002 (Excerpt)”) should be excluded for at
`
`least the following reasons: Bradium’s attempted introduction of this
`
`exhibit is untimely and irrelevant because it was not introduced in any
`
`substantive paper by Bradium and is an improper attempt to introduce
`
`new evidence, raise new issues or re-argue issues that Bradium waived by
`
`failing to include them in its Patent Owner Response (see Paper 17
`
`(Scheduling Order) at 3); the exhibit is not admissible under FRE 703
`
`because it has not been relied upon by any expert in forming any opinion
`
`in this case; the exhibit constitutes hearsay under FRE 801, 802, and 805;
`
`the exhibit is incomplete and misleading; the exhibit should also be
`
`excluded pursuant to FRE 401-403 because it is not relevant, and any
`
`probative value is substantially outweighed by unfair prejudice to
`
`Microsoft because Bradium unduly delayed disclosing the exhibits. .
`
`3
`
`

`
`Exhibit 2005 (identified by Bradium as “Maguire, et al.,
`
`PTAB Case No. IPR2015-01432
`Patent 7,139,794 B2
`
`
`
`4.
`
`EOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS, Vol. 1, Chapter 2,
`
`Coppock, J. and Rhind, D, The History of GIS (Excerpt)”) should be
`
`excluded for at least the following reasons: Bradium’s attempted
`
`introduction of this exhibit is untimely and irrelevant because it was not
`
`introduced in any substantive paper by Bradium and is an improper
`
`attempt to introduce new evidence, raise new issues or re-argue issues that
`
`Bradium waived by failing to include them in its Patent Owner Response
`
`(see Paper 17 (Scheduling Order) at 3); the exhibit is not admissible under
`
`FRE 703 because it has not been relied upon by any expert in forming any
`
`opinion; the exhibit constitutes hearsay under FRE 801, 802, and 805;
`
`should also be excluded pursuant to FRE 401-403 because it is not
`
`relevant, and any probative value is substantially outweighed by unfair
`
`prejudice to Microsoft because Bradium unduly delayed disclosing the
`
`exhibits.
`
`
`5.
`
`Exhibit 2006 (identified by Bradium as “Declaration of William
`
`Michalson, PH.D, Under Armor Inc. v Adidas AG, IPR2015-00700,
`
`Exhibit 2002, dated Nov. 16, 2015 (Excerpt)”) should be excluded for at
`
`least the following reasons: Bradium’s attempted introduction of this
`
`exhibit is untimely and irrelevant because it was not introduced in any
`
`4
`
`

`
`substantive paper by Bradium and is an improper attempt to introduce
`
`PTAB Case No. IPR2015-01432
`Patent 7,139,794 B2
`
`
`new evidence, raise new issues or re-argue issues that Bradium waived by
`
`failing to include them in its Patent Owner Response (see Paper 17
`
`(Scheduling Order) at 3); the exhibit is not admissible under FRE 703
`
`because it has not been relied upon by any expert in forming any opinion
`
`in this case; the exhibit constitutes hearsay under FRE 801, 802, and 805;
`
`the exhibit is incomplete and misleading; the exhibit should also be
`
`excluded pursuant to FRE 401-403 because it is not relevant, and any
`

`
`Microsoft because Bradium unduly delayed disclosing the exhibits.
`
`
`6.
`
`Exhibit 2010 (U.S. Patent No. 6,169,549) should be excluded for at least
`
`the following reasons: Bradium’s attempted introduction of this exhibit is
