`I.
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.10 – STATEMENT OF RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10, Petitioner respectfully requests that the Board
`
`authorize withdrawal of Matthew I. Kreeger, Jonathan Bockman, and Matthew
`
`Chivvis of Morrison & Foerster LLP, as its counsel, and appointment of Orion
`
`Armon of Cooley LLP as lead counsel, and Brian Eutermoser, Max Colice, and
`
`Jennifer Volk-Fortier as backup counsel in this matter.
`
`II.
`
`STATEMENT SHOWING GOOD CAUSE FOR THE BOARD TO
`
`AUTHORIZE WITHDRAWAL AND SUBSTITUTION OF COUNSEL
`
`On November 6, 2015, Petitioner submitted its Power of Attorney and
`
`Petition, appointing Matthew I. Kreeger, Jonathan Bockman, and Matthew Chivvis
`
`as its counsel in the above-captioned inter partes review. (Paper 1).
`
`On March 29, 2016, the Board issued a scheduling order consolidating this
`
`proceeding with IPR2015-02001. (Paper 8.) The -02001 proceeding is directed to
`
`the independent claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,225,408, the same patent at issue in
`
`the -00157 proceeding. Attorneys from Cooley LLP, currently represent Petitioner
`
`in the -02001 proceeding. The requested withdrawal and substitution of counsel
`
`will therefore result in a single law firm representing Petitioner in the consolidated
`
`proceedings.
`
`On May 18th, substitute counsel for Petitioner contacted the Board and
`
`received authorization to file this motion. For good cause, Petitioner requests that
