`PATENT OWNER FOCAL IP, LLC’S OBJECTIONS TO EVIDENCE
`SUBMITTED UNDER 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1)

`

`

`Case IPR2016-01254
`Patent 8,457,113
`
`
`
`
`Paper No. 30
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Patent Owner Focal IP, LLC hereby
`
`objects to the following evidence submitted, relied on, or cited to by Petitioner Cisco
`
`Systems, Inc. in connection with Petitioner’s Reply to Patent Owner’s Response
`
`filed on June 26, 2017.
`
`1. The use of Exhibit 1046 (U.S. Patent No. 6,442,169 to Lewis) and
`
`proposed substitute Exhibit 1047 (U.S. Patent No. 6,333,931 to LaPier) in
`
`connection with the Petition for Inter Partes Review is objected to under
`
`Fed. R. Evid. 401-403 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.62. Trial was not instituted with
`
`respect to these prior art references. These Exhibits are therefore irrelevant
`
`to this proceeding. Alternatively, these Exhibits are unfairly prejudicial,
`
`misleading, and confuse the issues.
`
`2. Exhibits 1048 and 1049 (Transcripts of Deposition of Regis “Bud” Bates
`
`in IPR2016-01259, IPR2016-01261, IPR2016-01262, and IPR2016-
`
`01263) are objected to as hearsay under Fed. R. Evid. 801-802 because
`
`they are transcripts of a deposition taken in other proceedings with
`
`different claims and/or prior art at issue and Mr. Bates was available for
`
`deposition in this proceeding. In addition, Exhibits 1048 and 1049 are
`
`objected to under Fed. R. Evid. 401-403 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.62 because
`
`the deposition was taken in different proceedings with different claims
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`

`Case IPR2016-01254
`Patent 8,457,113
`and/or prior art at issue. The Exhibits are therefore irrelevant to this
`
`Paper No. 30
`
`
`
`proceeding.
`
` Alternatively,
`
`the Exhibits are unfairly prejudicial,
`
`misleading, and confuse the issues.
