`____________
`
`
`Case IPR2016-00948
`Patent 8,641,525 B2
`
`
`
`
`
`Before PHILLIP J. KAUFFMAN, MEREDITH C. PETRAVICK, and
`MITCHELL G. WEATHERLY, Administrative Patent Judges.
`
`KAUFFMAN, Administrative Patent Judge.
`
`
`
`
`Conduct of the Proceeding
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`
`
`
`Case IPR2016-00948
`Patent 8,641,525 B2
`
`
`Pursuant to our authorization, Patent Owner submitted a response to
`Petitioner’s Request for Rehearing. See Paper 45 (Request), Paper 47
`(authorization), Paper 51 (Patent Owner’s response). By electronic
`communication, Petitioner now seeks to file a two-page reply to that
`response, and Patent Owner opposes that request. As the moving party,
`Petitioner bears the burden of persuasion (37 C.F.R. § 42. 20(c)), and
`therefore, it is appropriate that Petitioner should have the last word.
`
`
`ORDER
`In view of the foregoing, it is hereby:
`ORDERED that Petitioner may file a reply to Patent Owner’s
`response, as outlined above, no later than three business from entry of this
`Order.
