`
`
`Petitioner moves for pro hac vice admission of Anna G. Phillips in
`each of these proceedings. See, e.g., IPR2016-01127, Paper 39. Petitioner
`provides a declaration from Ms. Phillips in support of its motion. Ex. 1133.
`Patent Owner did not file an opposition to Petitioner’s motion.
`Based on the facts set forth in the motion and the accompanying
`declaration from Ms. Phillips, we conclude that Ms. Phillips has sufficient
`legal and technical qualifications to represent Petitioner and that there is a
`need for Petitioner to have counsel with experience as a litigation attorney in
`intellectual property matters involved in these cases. Accordingly, Petitioner
`has established good cause for Ms. Phillips’s pro hac vice admission. Ms.
`Phillips will be permitted to appear pro hac vice as back-up counsel only.
`See 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c).
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is hereby:
`ORDERED that Petitioner’s motion for pro hac vice admission of
`Anna G. Phillips is granted, and Ms. Phillips is authorized to represent
`Petitioner as back-up counsel;
`FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner is to continue to have a
`registered practitioner as lead counsel;
`FURTHER ORDERED that Ms. Phillips comply with the Office
`Patent Trial Practice Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials, as
`set forth in Title 37, Part 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations; and
`FURTHER ORDERED that Ms. Phillips is subject to the Office’s
`disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a), and to the USPTO
`Rules of Professional Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq.
