`IPR2015-01751, IPR2015-01752 (Patent 7,356,482 B2)
`
`On January 25, 2016, a conference call was held among counsel for
`
`both parties and Judges Pettigrew, Weatherly, and Chagnon. Particular
`
`issues discussed during the call are summarized below.
`
`Motions to Seal
`
`Petitioner requested clarification as to which party is responsible for
`
`filing Motions to Seal regarding the information it asserts is confidential
`
`(“Petitioner’s confidential information”). Petitioner asserts that Patent
`
`Owner, as the proponent of the evidence, is responsible for filing Motions to
`
`Seal regarding any papers and exhibits it files. Patent Owner believes that
`
`Petitioner should file the Motions to Seal, as it is Petitioner’s confidential
`
`information at issue.
`
`We instructed the parties that, going forward in these proceedings,
`
`Patent Owner shall continue to file any papers and exhibits containing
`
`Petitioner’s confidential information with a “Parties and Board Only” status
`
`in PRPS. We authorized Petitioner to file, in each proceeding, a Motion to
`
`Seal with respect to any papers and exhibits previously filed by Patent
`
`Owner. The Motion to Seal shall be filed no later than February 8, 2016,
`
`and shall not exceed fifteen (15) pages. We also authorized Patent Owner to
`
`file an Opposition to the Motion to Seal. The Opposition shall be filed no
`
`later than five (5) business days after the date on which Petitioner files its
`
`Motion, and shall not exceed fifteen (15) pages. Both the Motion and the
`
`Opposition shall be filed with a “Parties and Board Only” status in PRPS.
`
`Protective Order
`
`Petitioner also requested clarification be provided to Patent Owner
`
`regarding specifically with whom Petitioner’s confidential information may
`
`be shared under the protective order. During the call, the parties agreed that,

`IPR2015-01751, IPR2015-01752 (Patent 7,356,482 B2)
`
`at this stage in the proceedings, Patent Owner’s counsel will not share
`
`Petitioner’s confidential information with any persons employed by its
`
`client, Applications in Internet Time, LLC, at least until decisions on
`
`institution are entered in these proceedings.
`
`Allegedly Untrue Assertions in Patent Owner’s Filings
`
`Petitioner requested permission to notify the Board of allegedly untrue
`
`and unsupported representations in Patent Owner’s papers. We informed the
`
`parties that the panel is capable of reviewing the evidence to determine if
`
`statements in both parties’ papers are supported by the record. We did not
`
`authorize additional briefing on this issue.
`
`Requested Requirement to Meet and Confer via Telephone
`
`Patent Owner requested an order requiring the parties to meet and
`
`confer via telephone prior to either party contacting the Board in these
`
`proceedings. We informed the parties we would take the request under
`
`consideration, and will address such procedures in our Scheduling Order
`
`should a trial be instituted in any of these proceedings.
`
`Accordingly, it is:
`
`ORDERED that Petitioner is authorized to file in each proceeding a
`
`Motion to Seal, addressing any papers and exhibits previously filed by
`
`Patent Owner, limited to fifteen (15) pages, by no later than February 8,
`
`2016;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Patent Owner is authorized to file in each
`
`proceeding an Opposition to Petitioner’s Motion to Seal, limited to fifteen
`
`(15) pages, no later than five (5) business days after the date on which
`
`Petitioner files its Motion;

`IPR2015-01751, IPR2015-01752 (Patent 7,356,482 B2)
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that the Motion and Opposition shall each be
`
`filed with a “Parties and Board Only” status in PRPS; and
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Patent Owner’s counsel will not share
`
`Petitioner’s confidential information with any persons employed by its
`
`client, Applications in Internet Time, LLC, at least until decisions on
`
`institution are entered in these proceedings.
