`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioners JVC Kenwood Corporation,
`
`et al. (Petitioners) hereby serve these objections to evidence submitted by Patent
`
`Owner Papst Licensing GmbH & Co. KG (“Papst”) with Papst’s Patent Owner
`
`Response in the above noted case. This notice is being timely filed within 5
`
`business days of service of the Patent Owner Response (March 15, 2017).
`
`1.
`
`Exhibit 2006, Appendix B
`
`Petitioners object to the admissibility of Appendix B under FRE 901, 802,
`
`401/402, 403, 602/703. Specifically:
`
` FRE 901, Lack of Authenticity: This exhibit purports to be a “Timeline of
`
`Important Events” with links supposedly supporting the events listed in the
`
`timeline. Patent Owner has not provided any evidence sufficient to
`
`authenticate this exhibit or the publications identified in the hyperlinks for
`
`certain events. When offering a printout of a webpage into evidence to
`
`prove the website’s contents, the proponent of the evidence must
`
`authenticate the information from the website itself, not merely the printout.
`
`Neste Oil Oyj v. REG Synthetic Fuels, LLC, IPR2013-00578, Paper 53
`
`(P.T.A.B. March 12, 2015). None of these publications appear to be self-
`
`authenticating under FRE 902. Therefore, the exhibit is inadmissible under
`
`FRE 901.
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`
`IPR2016-01213
`
` FRE 802, Hearsay: The exhibit and publications cited therein are
`
`inadmissible hearsay because Patent Owner offers it to prove the truth of the
`
`matter asserted, and this exhibit does not fall within any hearsay exception.
`
` FRE 401/402, Lack of Relevance: The exhibit is cited once in the
`
`supporting expert declaration of Patent Owner without any explanation tying
`
`this appendix to the opinions of Patent Owner’s expert regarding the issues
`
`in this trial.
`
` FRE 403, Prejudicial, Confusing, Misleading: This exhibit purports to be
`
`a “timeline of important events,” but arbitrarily identifies certain events, in
`
`some cases without dates, provides no admissible evidentiary support for the
`
`timing and description of the events, or an explanation why the events are
`
`important and relevant to the issues in this trial.
`
` FRE 602/703, Lacking foundation, assumes facts not in evidence,
`
`contains statements as to which the witness lacks personal knowledge,
`
`conclusory, and containing testimony concerning documents for which
`
`authentication required by FRE 901 is lacking. The Patent Owner has
`
`not provided testimony from a witness having personal knowledge of the
`
`statements made in this exhibit. The exhibit also makes statements that
`
`either have no supporting evidence or rely on unauthenticated webpage
`
`publications.
