`PETITIONER FACEBOOK, INC.’S OBJECTIONS TO PATENT
`OWNER’S EVIDENCE PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1)

`
`

`
`IPR2016-01159
`U.S. Patent No. 8,694,657
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioner Facebook, Inc. (“Petitioner”)
`
`objects to the admissibility of the following evidence submitted by Patent Owner
`
`Windy City Innovations LLC (“Patent Owner”), i.e. Patent Owner’s substitute
`
`Exhibit 2012 filed with the PTAB on April 21, 2017. These objections are made
`
`within five business days from the filing and service of the evidence. Petitioner
`
`objects to the following documents on the following bases:
`
`Ex. 2012, Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Information Technology and
`
`Systems, A.E. Cawkill, De Gruyter Saur, (October 2013)
`
`Petitioner objects to this exhibit as inadmissible hearsay because it includes
`
`out of court statements offered for their truth and does not fall within any
`
`exception to the rule against hearsay. FRE 801, 802. To the extent that the
`
`authors(s) of the underlying document comment on the perception of others, opine
`
`on the functionalities of a product or process, and/or comment on the purported
`
`state of the art, the exhibit is objected to as inadmissible hearsay. FRE 801, 802.
`
`The document purports to be a copy and the purported authors are not under oath
`
`and are not subject to cross-examination in this proceeding.
`
`Petitioner objects to this exhibit as irrelevant and inadmissible. FRE 401,
`
`402. The contents of the exhibit are not relevant to claim construction, novelty,
`
`obviousness, or any issue related to the instituted ground. The contents of the
`
`exhibit do not correspond to any particular argument, and are thus not probative of
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`Atty Docket FABO-041/00US
`(309101-2121)
`
`any particular fact at issue. Further, this exhibit is irrelevant because Patent Owner
`
`IPR2016-01159
`U.S. Patent No. 8,694,657
`
`
`
`
`and/or Dr. Carbonell have not established that this exhibit reasonably would be
`
`relied upon by experts in the field. FRE 401, 402, 702.
`
`Petitioner objects to this exhibit as confusing the issues, misleading the fact-
`
`finders, and/or a waste of time because the cited portions are of minimal probative
`
`value and do not relate to claim construction, novelty, obviousness, or any issue
`
`related to the instituted ground. FRE 403. Petitioner objects to this exhibit as
`
`unfairly prejudicial. FRE 403.
`
`Petitioner objects to this exhibit as not properly authenticated and not self-
`
`authenticating. FRE 901, 902. For at least these reasons, Petitioner objects to this
`
`exhibit.
