`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`
`Patent Owner, IXI IP, LLC (“IXI”), filed a motion to exclude Exhibits 1002
`
`and 1014-1017 on August 3, 2016. IXI, however, fails to adequately explain why
`
`these exhibits are inadmissible, merely asserting inadmissibility and improperly
`
`shifting the burden to Petitioners to explain why these exhibits are admissible. IXI,
`
`as the moving party, bears the burden to show entitlement to the relief requested by
`
`the motion to exclude. 37 C.F.R. § 42.20. IXI has not done so.
`
`Indeed, relevant evidence is generally admissible. See FRE 402. “Evidence is
`
`relevant if: (a) it has any tendency to make a fact more or less probable than it would
`
`be without the evidence; and (b) the fact is of consequence in determining the action.
`
`FRE 401. “The Rule’s basic standard of relevance thus is a liberal one.” Daubert v.
`
`Merrell Dow Pharm., Inc., 509 U.S. 579, 587 (1993). Administrative agencies
`
`further relax the rules of evidence as administrative judges have the skill to handle
`
`evidence that may mislead a jury. See Peabody Coal Co. v. McCandless, 255 F.3d
`
`465, 469 (7th Cir. 2001). With this in mind, the PTAB favors inclusion. See, e.g.,
`
`Liberty Mutual Ins. v. Progressive Casualty Ins., CBM2012-00002, Paper 66, pp.
`
`60-61 (PTAB Jan. 23, 2014) (“It is better to have a complete record of the evidence
`
`submitted by the parties than to exclude particular pieces.”). As discussed in more
`

`
`1
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`detail below, each of Exhibits 1002 and 1014-1017 is relevant to this proceeding and
`
`admissible.
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. §42.64, Petitioners’ opposition addresses “the
`
`objections in the record in order,” starting with the objections to Exhibit 1002. For
`
`the reasons discussed below, Patent Owner’s Motion to Exclude should be denied.
`
`EXHIBITS 1002, 1014, AND 1015 SHOULD BE EXCLUDED
`
`In the Motion to Exclude, IXI argues that “Exhibits 1002, 1014, and 1015 are
`
`not relevant under FRE 401 and 402” and “should be excluded under FRE 403 as
`
`highly prejudicial.” Motion to Exclude, 10-11. IXI’s sole argument focuses on the
`
`lack of citation to Exhibits 1002, 1014, and 1015 in the Petition or Petitioners’
`
`Reply. See Motion to Exclude, 10-11.
`
`Exhibits 1002, 1014, and 1015, however, were all relied upon and discussed in
`
`Dr. Kiaei’s Declaration. Ex. 1003, ¶¶ 35, 36, 42, and 60. For instance, Exhibit 1002
`
`was cited at paragraph 60 of Dr. Kiaei’s Declaration to corroborate Dr. Kiaei’s
`
`testimony that “a firewall was a well-known network security software component
`
`that controls access and data transfer from or to an external network.” Id., ¶ 60.
`
`Exhibit 1014 was cited at paragraph 42 of Dr. Kiaei’s Declaration to corroborate Dr.
`
`Kiaei’s testimony that “DHCP is known in the art as a framework to allocate IP
`
`addresses for network devices.” Id., ¶ 42. Exhibit 1015 was cited at paragraphs 35
`
`and 36 of Dr. Kiaei’s Declaration to corroborate Dr. Kiaei’s testimony that “it was
`

`
`2
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`known at the time of the Critical Date of the ’033 Patent, that a mobile phone, such
`
`as Marchand’s mobile phone 33, would include a processor coupled to a storage
`
`device to ‘control all operations’ of the mobile phone including the storing and
`
`execution of various code or software components on the mobile phone.” Id., ¶¶ 35
`
`and 36. And, each of these paragraphs of Dr. Kiaei’s declaration was cited in the
`
`Petition. See, e.g., Petition, 16, 38, 45-47, 56, and 58. Thus, Exhibits 1002, 1014,
`
`and 1015 corroborate and add credibility to testimony provided by Dr. Kiaei that was
`
`relied upon in the Petition. For at least these reasons, Exhibits 1002, 1014, and 1015
`
`are relevant to this proceeding and not prejudicial.
`
`EXHIBITS 1016 AND 1017 ARE PROPER REPLY EVIDENCE
`
`In the Motion to Exclude, IXI argues that Exhibits 1016 and 1017 are
`
`inadmissible pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.123(b). Motion to Exclude, 2. As an initial
`
`matter, Petitioners note that “the Federal Rules of Evidence shall apply to a
`
`proceeding.” 37 C.F.R. §42.62. The rule on supplemental information, 37 C.F.R. §
`
`42.123(b), is not a Federal Rule of Evidence. As a consequence, a motion to exclude
`
`is not a proper mechanism for these challenges. See Vibrant Media, Inc., Petitioner,
`
`IPR2013-00170, Final Decision, p. 31 (PTAB June 26, 2014) (“A motion to exclude
`
`is not a mechanism to argue that a reply contains new arguments or relies on
`
`evidence necessary to make out a prima facie case”).
`

`

`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`Moreover, Exhibits 1016 and 1017 are proper reply evidence. As confirmed
`
`by the Federal Circuit, evidence submitted with a Petitioner’s Reply is permitted to
`
`respond to arguments made in a Patent Owner Response. Belden Inc. v. Berk-Tek
`
`LLC, Appeal Nos. 2014-1575, -1576, Slip Op. 20-29 (Fed. Cir. Nov. 5, 2015). Here,
`
`Exhibits 1016 and 1017 properly respond to and refute arguments made by IXI and
`
`its expert, Dr. Mandayam.
`
`In the Patent Owner Response, IXI took the position that a “person skilled in
`
`the art would appreciate that the JINI LUS 46 must be located on the master device
`
`of the Bluetooth piconet.” Patent Owner Response, 28 and 34 (emphasis added).
`
`IXI’s expert, Dr. Mandayam, also testified that “the JINI LUS can only be located
`
`on the master device of the Bluetooth piconet.” Ex. 2301, ¶ 55 (emphasis added).
`
`Notably, neither IXI nor Dr. Mandayam cited any authority corroborating this
`
`testimony. As a consequence, Petitioners investigated this issue and located Exhibit
`
`1016, which contradicts Dr. Mandayam’s testimony. As explained in Petitioners’
`
`Reply, Exhibit 1016 confirms that “a network may have more than one LUS” and
`
`“implementing multiple JINI LUSs is particularly useful in ad-hoc networks, such as
`
`Marchand’s, since the network topology is variable and the network 30 is
`
`heterogeneous with devices expected to join and leave at various times.” Petitioners’
`
`Reply, 7. Because Exhibit 1016 confirms that multiple LUSs are possible in an ad-
`
`hoc Bluetooth network, at least one of the multiple LUSs resides on a slave device,
`

`
`4
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`as an ad-hoc Bluetooth network includes a single master device. Thus, Exhibit 1016
`
`responds to IXI’s contention that a JINI LUS must be located on a master device,
`
`proving that IXI and Dr. Mandayam were incorrect. Rather than leave the record
`
`with incorrect and uncorroborated testimony, Petitioners’ appropriately submitted
`
`Exhibit 1016 to impeach Dr. Mandayam’s testimony and to clarify the record by
`
`showing that a LUS may be located on a slave device.
`
`Exhibit 1016 also responds to IXI’s contention that “Marchand’s and the JINI
`
`Spec’s disclosure of a joining device publishing its proxy object to the LUS does not
`
`imply a ‘plug and play software component.’” Patent Owner Response, 50. Indeed,
`
`Exhibit 1016 confirms that “Jini is the name for a distributed computing
`
`environment that can offer ‘network plug and work.’” Ex. 1016, 1 (emphasis
`
`added). Thus, as discussed in Petitioners’ Reply, Exhibit 1016 responds to IXI’s
`
`Patent Owner Response and confirms that Marchand’s JINI technology is plug and
`
`play. Petitioners’ Reply, 24.
`
`As for Exhibit 1017, IXI’s Patent Owner Response contends that “Marchand
`
`does not teach that any device has the ability to access a webpage, let alone through
`
`the mobile gateway.” Patent Owner Response, 45. In response, Petitioners point to
`
`Marchand’s laptop 31 and cite Exhibit 1017 to demonstrate that “[a] well-known
`
`functionality of a laptop includes webpage access for browsing the Internet” and
`
`“[a]ccessing the Internet is well-known to include webpage access.” Petitioners’
`

`
`5
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`Reply, 21. Thus, Exhibit 1017 responds to IXI’s Patent Owner Response and re-
`
`confirms the positions already taken at pages 33 and 34 of the Petition.
`
`For the above reasons, Exhibits 1016 and 1017 appropriately respond to IXI’s
`
`arguments and confirm the prima facie case set forth in the Petition. See Belden
`
`Inc., Appeal Nos. 2014-1575, -1576, Slip Op. 23-24 (Fed. Cir. Nov. 5, 2015).
`
`EXHIBIT 1016 MEETS FRE 901
`
`IXI argues that Exhibit 1016 is not authenticated. IXI, however, has
`
`submitted nothing—e.g., evidence of tampering or alteration—to suggest that the
`
`documents are anything but what they facially purport to be. Thus, IXI’s
`
`unsupported challenge to the authenticity of Exhibit 1016 is not sufficient reason to
`
`exclude. See Fin. Co. of Am. v. BankAmerica Corp., 493 F. Supp. 895, 900-01 (D.
`
`Md. 1980) (where defendants attacked plaintiff’s failure to comply with the methods
`
`of authentication set out in FRE 901, but did not challenge the authenticity of the
`
`documents, the court held defendants’ failure to challenge the documents’
`
`authenticity provides whatever extrinsic evidence of authenticity that might be
`
`required); see also Prime Ins. Syndicate, Inc. v. Damaso, 471 F. Supp. 2d 1087, 1093
`
`(D. Nev. 2007) (“[T]he Court will consider Prime’s exhibits [under FRE] 901(b)(4)
`
`because Defendants neither challenge the authenticity of any of Prime’s exhibits nor
`
`the facts contained therein, and because the exhibits’ appearance and contents
`
`support authentication.”).
`

`
`6
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`Regardless, under the FRE, Exhibit 1016 is self-authenticating. FRE
`
`901(b)(4) states that “the appearance, contents, substance, internal patterns, or other
`
`distinctive characteristics of the item, taken together with all the circumstances”
`
`satisfies the authentication requirement. Exhibit 1016 is distinctive under the
`
`circumstances.
`
`Specifically, Exhibit 1016 is a book entitled “A Programmer’s Guide to
`
`JINITM Technology,” by Jan Newmarch. Exhibit 1016 bears various trademarks,
`
`publisher information, an ISBN number, a copyright notice, and date information.
`
`Ex. 1016, 1-3. For these reasons, Exhibit 1016 is self-authenticating under FRE
`
`901(b)(4). See SAP America, Inc. v. Lakshmi Arunachalam, Case IPR2013-00195,
`
`slip op. at 22 (PTAB Sept. 18, 2014) (Paper 60)) (“Patent Owner points to
`
`circumstantial evidence, including dates, websites, trademarks, copyright notices,
`
`and URL links. … While the circumstantial evidence is thin, given the technical
`
`nature of the documents, this panel can assess their authenticity and assign them
`
`appropriate weight.”).
`
`Moreover, IXI completely ignores Petitioners’ supplemental evidence. IXI
`
`merely states that “Petitioner’s supplemental evidence served on July 13, 2016 also
`
`fails to provide any evidence showing the authenticity of Exhibit 1016.” Motion to
`
`Exclude, 6. This is inaccurate. Petitioners’ supplemental evidence includes a
`
`librarian declaration that establishes authenticity and publication of Exhibit 1016.
`

`
`7
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`See Ex. 1020 (Sheldon-Hess Declaration), ¶¶ 8-10. The librarian declaration
`
`confirms that “Exhibit 1016 is an authentic copy of the book entitled ‘A
`
`Programmer’s Guide to JINITM Technology’” and George Mason University’s
`
`holding of the book was available “as of January 31, 2001.” Id. In this regard, the
`
`librarian declaration confirms the 2000 copyright date listed in Exhibit 1016 and
`
`establishes that Exhibit 1016 was publicly available by the relevant time frame. Id.
`
`For the reasons discussed above, Exhibit 1016 should not be excluded under
`
`FRE 901.
`
`DATE INFORMATION IS ADMISSIBLE
`
`IXI contends that date information appearing on Exhibit 1016 “constitutes
`
`inadmissible hearsay.” Motion to Exclude, 6. IXI’s analysis, however, fails to
`
`account for the supplemental evidence that was served on IXI and confirms the date
`
`information appearing on Exhibit 1016 and is not hearsay. See Ex. 1020 (Sheldon-
`
`Hess Declaration), ¶¶ 9-10. Also, based on the librarian declaration, the date
`
`information included in Exhibit 1016 qualifies as information in a learned treatise,
`
`periodical, or pamphlet under FRE 803(18). Moreover, the MARC records that were
`
`relied upon in the librarian declaration (and that were provided as supplemental
`
`evidence) qualify as business records under FRE 803(6). For these reasons, the date
`
`information included in Exhibit 1016 should not be excluded as inadmissible
`
`hearsay.
`

`

`
`

`
`
`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`
`EXHIBITS 1016 AND 1017 ARE RELEVANT
`
`In contesting the relevance of Exhibits 1016 and 1017, IXI first argues that
`
`these exhibits “improperly raise[] new issues.” Motion to Exclude, 7. As an initial
`
`matter, the argument has no bearing on whether the evidence meets the standard of
`
`relevance under the FRE. In fact, a motion to exclude is not a proper motion to
`
`pursue these types of arguments. See Vibrant Media, Inc., Petitioner, IPR2013-
`
`00170, Final Decision, p. 31 (PTAB June 26, 2014) (“A motion to exclude is not a
`
`mechanism to argue that a reply contains new arguments or relies on evidence
`
`necessary to make out a prima facie case”).
`
`As to relevance under the FRE, the “Rule’s basic standard of relevance … is a
`
`liberal one.” Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharm., Inc., 509 U.S. 579, 587 (1993). In
`
`fact, administrative agencies, like the PTAB, relax the rules of evidence because
`
`administrative judges have the skill to handle evidence that may mislead a jury. See
`
`Peabody Coal Co. v. McCandless, 255 F.3d 465, 469 (7th Cir. 2001). With this in
`
`mind, the PTAB favors inclusion. See, e.g., Liberty Mutual Ins. v. Progressive
`
`Casualty Ins., CBM2012-00002, Paper 66, pp. 60-61 (PTAB Jan. 23, 2014) (“It is
`
`better to have a complete record of the evidence submitted by the parties than to
`
`exclude particular pieces.”). With this background, Exhibits 1016 and 1017 are
`
`relevant to this proceeding and IXI’s conclusory arguments on relevance fail.
`

`
`9
`
`

`
`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`Regarding Exhibit 1016, IXI contends that “Petitioner provides no explanation
`
`regarding how or why this reference demonstrates that Marchand’s JINI technology
`
`is plug and play.” Motion to Exclude, 8. This is simply untrue. As discussed above,
`
`Exhibit 1016 confirms that “Jini is the name for a distributed computing
`
`environment that can offer ‘network plug and work.’” Ex. 1016, 1 (emphasis
`
`added). Thus, as discussed in Petitioners’ Reply, Exhibit 1016 confirms that
`
`Marchand’s JINI technology is plug and play. Petitioners’ Reply, 24. In this regard,
`
`Petitioners’ Reply explains how Exhibit 1016 demonstrates that Marchand’s JINI
`
`technology is plug and play. As such, Exhibit 1016 is relevant to IXI’s arguments
`
`and confirms the prima facie case set forth in the Petition.
`
`IXI also contends that Exhibit 1016’s description “that JINI technology
`
`supports multiple LUSs … is irrelevant to the claims of the ’033 Patent and the
`
`alleged prior art.” Motion to Exclude, 8. However, as discussed above, because
`
`Exhibit 1016 confirms that multiple LUSs are possible in an ad-hoc Bluetooth
`
`network, at least one of the multiple LUSs necessarily resides on a slave device, as
`
`an ad-hoc Bluetooth network includes a single master device. Thus, Exhibit 1016
`
`responds to IXI’s contention that a JINI LUS must be located on a master device,
`
`proving that IXI and Dr. Mandayam were incorrect in concluding that a LUS must
`
`be located on a master device in a Bluetooth network.

`Case IPR2015-01444
`Attorney Docket No: 00035-0004IP1
`Regarding Exhibit 1017, IXI contends that “Petitioner’s conclusory statements
`
`fail to establish how Exhibit 1017 demonstrates this functionality and how it relates
`
`to the claims of the ’033 Patent or the alleged prior art.” Motion to Exclude, 9.
`
`Again, this is simply not true.
`
`As discussed above, IXI’s Patent Owner Response contends that “Marchand
`
`does not teach that any device has the ability to access a webpage, let alone through
`
`the mobile gateway.” Patent Owner Response, 45. In response, Petitioners point to
`
`Marchand’s laptop 31 and cite Exhibit 1017 to demonstrate that “[a] well-known
`
`functionality of a laptop includes webpage access for browsing the Internet” and
`
`“[a]ccessing the Internet is well-known to include webpage access.” Petitioners’
`
`Reply, 21. Thus, Exhibit 1017 responds to IXI’s Patent Owner Response and re-
`
`confirms the positions already taken at pages 33 and 34 of the Petition. As such,
`
`Exhibit 1016 is relevant to IXI’s arguments and confirms the prima facie case set
`
`forth in the Petition.
`
`For the reasons discussed above, Exhibits 1016 and 1017 are relevant to this
`
`proceeding and should not be excluded.
`
`CONCLUSION
`
`For the above reasons, Petitioners submit that Exhibits 1002 and 1014-1017
`
`should be allowed entry into the proceeding, and Patent Owner’s Motion to Exclude
`
`these exhibits should not be granted.
