`ORDER
`Patent Owner’s Motions for Pro Hac Vice Admission of Aaron Stiefel
`37 C.F.R. § 42.10
`
`1 This order addresses issues that are common to each referenced case.
`We, therefore, issue a single order that has been entered in each case. For
`convenience, paper numbers refer to those filed in IPR2016-00098. The
`parties may use this style caption when filing a single paper in multiple
`proceedings, provided that such caption includes a footnote attesting that
`“the word-for-word identical paper is filed in each proceeding identified in
`the caption.”

`
`
`IPR2016-00098 (Patent 8,791,270 B2)
`IPR2016-00111 (Patent 8,895,756 B2)
`
`
`Patent Owner filed Motions for pro hac vice admission of Aaron
`
`Stiefel. Paper 6. Petitioner did not file an opposition.
`
`According to Patent Owner, the Motions are supported by the
`
`Declaration of Aaron Stiefel, filed as Exhibit 2001. See Paper 6, 1–4 (citing
`
`Ex. 2001). Exhibit 2001, however, is TREANDA® Prescribing
`
`Information. Nevertheless, the Declaration of Aaron Stiefel is attached to
`
`each Motion. For future filings in this proceeding, the parties are required to
`
`submit each supporting document as a separate exhibit, and not as an
`
`attachment to any paper. 37 C.F.R. § 42.63(a).
`
`The Board has reviewed the submissions and determined that the
`
`requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 42.10 have been met and there is good cause to
`
`admit Aaron Stiefel pro hac vice in each proceeding.
`
`
`
`It is, therefore,
`
`ORDERED that Patent Owner’s Motions for pro hac vice admission
`
`of Aaron Stiefel are granted in these proceedings;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Aaron Stiefel shall comply with the
`
`Office Patent Trial Practice Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for
`
`Trials, as set forth in Part 42 of the C.F.R.; and
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Aaron Stiefel shall be subject to the
`
`Office’s disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a) and the Office’s
`
`Rules of Professional Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101-11.901.
