`Petitioners,
`
`v.
`

`
`Case IPR2016-006221
`Patent No. 7,149,511 B1
`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Before the Honorable JUSTIN T. ARBES, PATRICK R. SCANLON, and JOHN A.
`HUDALLA, Administrative Patent Judges.
`
`PETITIONERS’ OBJECTIONS TO EVIDENCE SUBMITTED WITH
`PATENT OWNER’S PRELIMINARY RESPONSES
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), the undersigned, on behalf of and acting in
`
`a representative capacity for Petitioners Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Samsung
`
`Electronics America, Inc., and Apple Inc. (“Petitioners”), hereby submit the
`
`following objections to Patent Owner Rosetta-Wireless Corporation’s (“Patent
`
`Owner”) Exhibits as indicated below, and any reference thereto/reliance thereon,
`
`without limitation. Petitioners’ objections below apply the Federal Rules of Evidence
`
`
`1 Case IPR2016-00616 has been consolidated with this proceeding.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`(“F.R.E.”) as required by 37 C.F.R § 42.62.
`
`These objections address evidentiary deficiencies in the new material served by
`
`Patent Owner on May 24 and May 25, 2016.
`
`The following objections apply to the Exhibits indicated below as they are
`
`actually presented by Patent Owner, in the context of Patent Owner’s May 24 and
`
`May 25, 2016 Preliminary Responses (Paper 8 and IPR2016-00616, Paper 7,
`
`respectively), and in light of Patent Owner’s updated exhibit list filed August 25,
`
`2016 (Paper 16), and not in the context of any other substantive argument on the
`
`merits of the instituted grounds in this proceeding. Petitioners expressly object to any
`
`other purported use of these Exhibits, including as substantive evidence in this
`
`proceeding, which would be untimely and improper under the applicable rules, and
`
`Petitioners expressly assert, reserve, and do not waive any other objections that would
`
`be applicable in such a context.
`
`I. Objections to Exhibits 2002-2013 And Any Reference to/Reliance Thereon
`Grounds for objection: F.R.E. 901 (“Authenticating or Identifying Evidence”);
`
`F.R.E. 1002 (“Requirement of the Original”); F.R.E. 1003 (“Admissibility of
`
`Duplicates”); F.R.E. 801, 802 (Impermissible Hearsay), 805 (Hearsay within
`
`Hearsay); F.R.E. 403 (“Excluding Relevant Evidence for Prejudice, Confusion,
`
`Waste of Time, or Other Reasons”); and 37 C.F.R. § 42.61 (“Admissibility”).
`
`Petitioners object to the use of Exhibits 2002-2013 under F.R.E. 901, 1002,
`
`1003, and 37 C.F.R. § 42.61 because Patent Owner fails to provide the authentication
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`required for these documents, and the Exhibits are not self-authenticating under
`
`F.R.E. 902.
`
`Petitioners further object to Exhibits 2002-2013 as impermissible hearsay
`
`under F.R.E. 801 and 802, and 805, to the extent to which the out of court statements
`
`therein, or the out of court statements referenced therein, are offered for the truth of
`
`the matters asserted and constitute impermissible hearsay for which Patent Owner has
`
`not demonstrated any exception or exclusion to the rule against hearsay (F.R.E. 801,
`
`802, 805).
`
`Accordingly, permitting reliance on these documents in Patent Owner’s
`
`Preliminary Response or other submissions of Patent Owner would be misleading and
`
`unfairly prejudicial to Petitioners (F.R.E. 403).
