`PETITIONER’S OBJECTIONS TO EVIDENCE SUBMITTED UNDER 37
`C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1)
`
`
`
`
`
`Case IPR2016-01254
`Patent No. 8,457,113
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), the petitioner, Cisco Systems, Inc.
`
`(“Petitioner”), hereby objects to the following evidence submitted, relied on, or
`
`cited to, by patent owner, Focal IP, LLC (“Patent Owner”) for Inter Partes Review
`
`of United States Patent No. 8,457,113, in connection with Patent Owner’s
`
`Response filed on April 3, 2017.
`
`1. Exhibits 2020 and 2029 (excerpts of deposition transcripts) are objected to
`
`as irrelevant under Fed. R. Ev. 401-403 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.62 because the
`
`Exhibits pertain to different institutions, are beyond the scope of the
`
`instituted inter partes review, and are unfairly prejudicial, misleading, and
`
`confuse the issues. Further, Exhibits 2020 and 2029 are objected to under
`
`Fed. R. Ev. 1006 because Patent Owner has provided incomplete excerpts.
`
`2. Exhibits 2026, 2028, and 2030 (excerpts of declaration) are objected to as
`
`irrelevant under Fed. R. Ev. 401-403 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.62 because the
`
`Exhibits pertain to different institutions, are beyond the scope of the
`
`instituted inter partes review, and are unfairly prejudicial, misleading, and
`
`confuse the issues. Further, Exhibits 2026, 2028, and 2030 are objected to
`
`under Fed. R. Ev. 1006 because Patent Owner has provided incomplete
`
`excerpts.
`
`3. Exhibits 2023 and 2025 (excerpts of IPR petitions) are objected to as
`
`irrelevant under Fed. R. Ev. 401-403 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.62 because the
`1
`
`
`
`
`
`Case IPR2016-01254
`Patent No. 8,457,113
`
`
`Exhibits pertain to different institutions, are beyond the scope of the
`
`instituted inter partes review, and are unfairly prejudicial, misleading, and
`
`confuse the issues. Further, Exhibits 2023 and 2025 are objected to under
`
`Fed. R. Ev. 1006 because Patent Owner has provided incomplete excerpts.
`
`
`
`These objections have been timely made, filed, and served within 5 business
`
`days from the April 3, 2017 Patent Owner’s Response.
