`IPR2016-01127, -01128, -01129, -01130, -01131, -01132
`
`
`
`
`
`I, CHARLES G. CURTIS, JR., declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am more than twenty-one years of age, competent to present this
`
`affidavit, and have personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein.
`
`2.
`
`This affidavit is given in support of Petitioner Mylan Pharmaceutical
`
`Inc.’s Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission of Charles G. Curtis, Jr. Under 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.10(c).
`
`3.
`
`4.
`
`I am currently a partner at Perkins Coie LLP.
`
`I have been practicing law since 1983 and have extensive experience
`
`litigating cases involving Indian law in many different courts across the United
`
`States, as well as federal administrative boards.
`
`5.
`
`I received my law degree from The University of Chicago Law School
`
`in 1982. After law school, I clerked for the Hon. David L. Bazelon, U.S. Court of
`
`Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (1982-1983) and the Hon. William J.
`
`Brennan, Jr., Supreme Court of the United States (1984-1985).
`
`6.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the State of Wisconsin Bar and the
`
`District of Columbia Bar, as well as the following Federal Courts:
`
`• Supreme Court of the United States,
`
`• U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit,
`
`• U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit,
`
`• U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit,
`
`1
`
`
`
`
`
`• U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit,
`
`• U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin,
`
`• U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, and
`
`• U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York.
`
`7.
`
`I currently represent Petitioner Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. As noted
`
`above, I have extensive experience litigating cases involving Indian law. Many of
`
`these cases have involved disputed claims of tribal sovereign immunity, which I
`
`understand is an issue in these proceedings. I have represented private and public
`
`clients in litigation, agency proceedings, and business negotiations involving Native
`
`American tribes, tribal entities, and tribal members throughout the country,
`
`including with respect to the St. Regis Mohawk (Akwasasne) Tribe, the Indian tribe
`
`that is now asserting tribal sovereign immunity in these proceedings. My work in
`
`this field has spanned constitutional, treaty rights, environmental, energy, tax, IP,
`
`distribution, attorney liability, finance, commercial and gaming law.
`
`8.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any
`
`court or administrative body.
`
`9.
`
`No court or administrative body has ever denied my application for
`
`admission to practice before it.
`
`10. No court or administrative body has imposed sanctions or contempt
`
`citations on me.
`
`2
`
`
`
`
`
`11.
`
`I have read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice
`
`Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials set forth in in 37 C.F.R., Part 42.
`
`12.
`
`I understand that I will be subject to the USPTO Code of Professional
`
`Responsibility set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 10.20 et seq. and disciplinary jurisdiction
`
`under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a).
`
`13.
`
`I have not applied to appear pro hac vice in any other proceedings
`
`before the Office in the last three years.
`
`14.
`
`I hereby declare that all statements made herein of my own knowledge
`
`are true and further that all statements herein are made with knowledge that willful
`
`false statements and the like are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under
`
`Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
