`
`PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c) of the Code of Federal Regulations
`
`(“Federal Regulations”), Patent Owner Rosetta-Wireless Corporation (“Patent
`
`Owner” or “Rosetta”) respectfully requests the pro hac vice admission of Michael
`
`Ng as backup counsel for Rosetta in the current proceedings. The Petitioners Apple
`
`Inc., Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., and Samsung Electronics America, Inc.
`
`(“Petitioners”) were consulted regarding this request, and have indicated through
`
`counsel that they would not oppose. A declaration made by Mr. Ng in support of
`
`this motion is attached hereto as Exhibit 2016.
`
`I. Statement of Facts
`
`1. Mr. Ng is a litigation attorney experienced in patent cases, and is admitted to
`
`practice law in California, New York, and Mississippi as well as multiple Federal
`
`Courts, including the following:
`
`a. United States District Court for the Northern District of California
`
`b. United States District Court for the Eastern District of California
`
`c. United States District Court for the Central District of California
`
`d. United States District Court for the Southern District of California
`
`e. United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas
`
`f. United States District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi
`
`g. United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi
`
`2
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`h. United States District Court for the Southern District of New York
`
`i. United States Court of the Appeals for the Second Circuit
`
`j. United States Court of the Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
`
`k. United States Court of the Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
`
`l. United States Court of the Appeals for the Federal Circuit
`
`m. United States Supreme Court
`
`2. Mr. Ng has not had any application denied for admission to practice, nor has
`
`he been sanctioned, cited for contempt, suspended or disbarred from practice,
`
`before any court or administrative body.
`
`3. Mr. Ng has an established familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this
`
`proceeding, having represented Rosetta in District Court proceedings involving the
`
`same technology (Rosetta-Wireless Corp. v. Apple Inc. et al., No. 15-cv-00799,
`
`(N.D.Ill) and Rosetta-Wireless Corp. v. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. et al., No.
`
`15-cv-10605, (N.D.Ill)). Mr. Ng has carefully studied the patent-in-suit, including
`
`its prosecution history, and has conducted many interviews with the inventors
`
`regarding their invention, the prosecution history and the patent. Mr. Ng is
`
`intimately familiar with the positions taken by the petitioners and the other
`
`defendants in the above litigation, and has provided counsel to the inventors in
`
`connection with litigation involving a foreign counterpart in the United Kingdom.
`
`Mr. Ng is an experienced patent litigator, having litigated dozens of patent
`
`3
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`infringement cases, for both plaintiffs and defendants, at both the district court and
`
`Federal Circuit levels. Mr. Ng has, for example, served as lead trial and appellate
`
`counsel for the Australian national science agency, Commonwealth Scientific and
`
`Industrial Research Organisation, including in the currently pending CSIRO v.
`
`Cisco, Eastern District of Texas Case No. 6-11-cv-343 and Federal Circuit Case
`
`No. 15-1066.
`
`4. Mr. Ng has read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice Guide
`
`and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials set forth in part 42 of the C.F.R.
`
`II. Conclusion
`
`For the reasons stated above, Patent Owner respectfully submits that there is
`
`good cause for the Board to recognize Michael Ng pro hac vice during the
`
`
