`
`Patent Owner’s Objections to Evidence
`IPR2015-02001, IPR2016-00157 (U.S. Patent No. 8,225,408)
`
`Patent Owner Finjan, Inc. (“Finjan) objects under the Federal Rules of
`
`Evidence and 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1) to the admissibility of the following exhibits
`
`submitted by Palo Alto Networks (“Petitioner”):
`
`• The Declaration of Dr. Aviel Rubin (the “Rubin Declaration”) (Exhibit
`
`1002); and
`
`• Exhibits 1007, 1010, 1013, 1014, 1016, 1018, 1020, 1023, 1024, 1025,
`
`1026, 1027, 1028, 1029, 1030, 1031, 1032, 1033, 1034, 1035, 1036,
`
`1037, 1038, 1039, 1040, 1041, 1042, 1043, 1044, 1045, 1046, 1047,
`
`1048, 1049, 1050, 1051, 1052, 1053, 1054, 1055, 1056, 1057, 1058, and
`
`1059.
`
`The Institution Decision issued on March 29, 2016.2 Paper No. 10. The
`
`Board instituted trial as to claims 1, 3-7, 9, 12-16, 18-23, 29, and 35. Id.
`
`Specifically, the Board instituted trial for claims 1, 3-5, 9, 12-16, 18, 19, 22, 23,
`
`29, and 35 as unpatentable based on Chandnani and Kolawa; claims 1, 3-5, 9, 12-
`
`16, 18, 19, 22, 23, 29, and 35 based on Chandnani, Kolawa, and Walls; claims 6, 7,
`
`20, and 21 based on Chandnani, Kolawa, and Huang; and claims 6, 7, 20, and 21
`
`based on Chandnani, Kolawa, Walls, and Huang. Id. Finjan’s objections are
`
`timely under 37 C.F.R. section 42.64(b)(1). Finjan serves Petitioner with these
`
`objections to provide notice that Finjan reserves the right move to exclude these
`
`
`2 The Board consolidated IPR2015-02001 and IPR2016-00157.

`
`

`
`Patent Owner’s Objections to Evidence
`IPR2015-02001, IPR2016-00157 (U.S. Patent No. 8,225,408)
`
`exhibits as improper evidence.
`
`I.
`
`Dr. Aviel Rubin Declaration (Ex. 1002)
`
`Finjan objects to the admissibility of the Rubin Declaration for at least the
`
`following reasons: Under FRE 702, Dr. Aviel Rubin’s opinions are inadmissible
`
`because they are conclusory, do not disclose underlying facts or data in support of
`
`his opinions, and are unreliable. Additionally, Dr. Aviel Rubin is unqualified as an
`
`expert to provide technical opinions of a person skilled in the art. See Ex. 1022
`
`(Curriculum Vitae of Dr. Aviel Rubin). As such, his opinions are inadmissible
`
`under FRE 702. They are also irrelevant, confusing, and of minimal probative
`
`value under FRE 401, 402, and 403.
`
`II. Objections to Exhibits Lacking Authentication
`
`Finjan objects to Exhibits 1007, 1010, 1013, 1014, 1016, 1018, 1020, 1023,
`
`1025, 1026, 1027, 1028, 1029, 1030, 1032, 1033, 1034, 1037, 1038, 1039, 1040,
`
`1042, 1043, 1044, 1045, 1046, 1047, 1048, 1049, 1050, 1052, 1053, 1054, 1055,
`
`1056, 1057 under FRE 901 because these exhibits lack authentication.
`
`III. Objections to Exhibits Based on Hearsay
`
`Finjan objects to Exhibits 1041 under FRE 802 because certain statements
`
`in these Exhibits that are relied upon in the Petition constitute inadmissible
`
`hearsay.

`Patent Owner’s Objections to Evidence
`IPR2015-02001, IPR2016-00157 (U.S. Patent No. 8,225,408)
`
`IV. Objections to Exhibits Based on Relevance
`
`Finjan objects to Exhibits 1023, 1024, 1025, 1026, 1027, 1028, 1029, 1030,
`
`1031, 1032, 1033, 1034, 1035, 1036, 1038, 1039, 1041, 1042, 1043, 1044, 1045,
`
`1046, 1047, 1048, 1049, 1050, 1051, 1052, 1053, 1054, 1055, 1056, 1057, 1058,
`
`and 1059 as irrelevant under FRE 401–403 because Petitioner never relied on
`
`these Exhibits in the Petition.
`
`V. Conclusion
`
`Therefore, Finjan reserves its right to file motions to exclude this exhibit and
`
`evidence under 37 C.F.R. section 42.64(c).
