`ORDER
`Granting Request for Oral Argument
`37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a)
`
`
`1 Case IPR2016-01071 (filed by Symantec Corp.) has been joined with this
`proceeding.
`
`
`
`IPR2016-00151
`Patent 8,141,154 B2
`
`
`
`
`
`The parties have requested an oral hearing in this proceeding pursuant to 37
`C.F.R. § 42.70. See IPR2016-00151, Papers 36, 37. We grant the parties’
`requests.
`Each party will have 40 minutes of total argument time. Petitioner bears the
`ultimate burden of proof that the claims at issue in this review are unpatentable.
`Therefore, Petitioner will proceed first to present its case with regard to the
`challenged claims on which basis we instituted trial. Thereafter, Patent Owner will
`respond to Petitioner’s case. After that, Petitioner will make use of the rest of its
`time responding to Patent Owner. There is no motion to amend to be addressed at
`the hearing, and, therefore, no rebuttal time will be allotted to Patent Owner.
`The panel requests that the parties be prepared also to address the issues
`briefed in connection with the application of 35 U.S.C. § 315(e)(1). See Papers 24
`(Order), 30 (Petitioner’s Brief) and 31 (Patent Owner’s Brief).
`The hearing will commence at 1:00 PM Eastern Time on January 24, 2017 at
`the USPTO, Madison Building, 9th Floor, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria, Virginia.
`The hearing will be open to the public for in-person attendance, which will be
`accommodated on a first come first serve basis. If the parties have concerns about
`disclosing confidential information, they are requested to contact the Board at least
`five business days in advance of the hearing to discuss the matter.
`The Board will provide a court reporter for the hearing, and the reporter’s
`transcript will constitute the official record of the hearing. Under 37 C.F.R.
`§ 42.70(b), demonstrative exhibits must be served seven business days before the
`hearing. The parties are directed to CBS Interactive Inc. v. Helferich Patent
`Licensing, LLC, IPR2013-00033, Paper 118 (Oct. 23, 2013), regarding the
`appropriate content of demonstrative exhibits.

`IPR2016-00151
`Patent 8,141,154 B2
`
`
`
`
`
`Any issue regarding demonstrative exhibits should be resolved at least two
`business days prior to the hearing by way of a joint telephone conference call to the
`Board. The parties are responsible for requesting such a conference sufficiently in
`advance of the hearing to accommodate this requirement. Any objection to
`demonstrative exhibits that is not timely presented will be considered waived.
`Demonstratives should be emailed to the Board (Trials@uspto.gov) no later than
`two business days before the hearing. A hard copy of the demonstratives should
`be provided to the court reporter at the hearing.
`Questions regarding specific audio-visual equipment should be directed to
`the Board at (571) 272-9797. Requests for audio-visual equipment are to be
`made five business days in advance of the hearing date. The request is to be
`sent directly to Trials@uspto.gov. If the request is not received timely, the
`equipment may not be available on the day of the hearing. The parties are
`reminded that the presenter must identify clearly and specifically each
`demonstrative exhibit (e.g., by slide or screen number) referenced during the
`hearing to ensure the clarity and accuracy of the reporter’s transcript. The parties
`also should note that at least one member of the panel will be attending the hearing
`electronically from a remote location and will not be able to view the projection
`screen in the hearing room.
`The Board expects lead counsel for each party (including each of the joined
`Petitioners) to be present in person at the oral hearing. However, lead or backup
`counsel of the presenting party may put forward the party’s argument.
`If either party anticipates that its lead counsel will not be attending the oral
`hearing, the parties should initiate a joint telephone conference with the Board no
`later than two business days prior to the oral hearing to discuss the matter.
