`
`
`ORDER
`Granting Patent Owner’s Unopposed Motion to
`Withdraw Its Motion to Exclude
`37 C.F.R. § 42.71
`
`
`
`On June 30, 2016, the Board held a conference call with Patent Owner
`and Petitioners regarding Petitioners’ request to add an omitted perjury
`acknowledgement to Petitioners’ expert declarations. During the call, the
`Board authorized Petitioners to file corrected expert declarations, adding
`only the inadvertently omitted penalty of perjury acknowledgement.
`Ex. 1039, 18:19–19:2.2 On July 3, 2016, Petitioners filed corrected
`Declarations of Paul Beard. Exs. 1003, 1031. On July 11, 2016, in each of
`these proceedings, Patent Owner filed a Motion to Exclude the original and
`corrected declarations. Paper 35. On July 29, 2016, pursuant to Board
`authorization, Patent Owner filed a Motion to Withdraw its Motion to
`Exclude. Paper 44. In its Motion, Patent Owner represents that Petitioners
`do not oppose the Motion. Id. at 3.
`Given the circumstances of these proceedings, we grant Patent
`Owner’s Motion, and withdraw Patent Owner’s Motion to Exclude from
`consideration. Therefore, the Board will not issue a decision addressing
`Patent Owner’s withdrawn Motion to Exclude.
