`ORDER
`Petitioner’s Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission
`37 C.F.R. § 42.10
`
`Petitioner has filed a Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission of Rico
`
`Reyes. Paper 43. The Motion is supported by the Declaration of Mr. Reyes.
`
`Ex. 1052. Patent Owner did not file an opposition.
`
`
`

`
`
`IPR2016-01914
`Patent 8,394,618 B2
`
`
`The Board has reviewed the submissions and determined that the
`
`requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 42.10 have been met and there is good cause to
`
`admit Mr. Reyes pro hac vice in this proceeding. We note that neither
`
`Petitioner’s motion nor the declaration of Mr. Reyes provides a law firm or
`
`email address for Mr. Reyes. To ensure that filings in this proceeding are
`
`properly served and that all backup counsel may be contacted, Mr. Reyes
`
`shall provide the Board with this information by email to Trials@uspto.gov.
`
`
`
`It is, therefore,
`
`ORDERED that Petitioner’s Motion for pro hac vice admission of
`
`Rico Reyes is granted in this proceeding;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Reyes is authorized to represent
`
`Petitioner as back-up counsel only, and that Petitioner is to continue to have
`
`a registered practitioner represent it as lead counsel;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Reyes shall comply with the Office
`
`Patent Trial Practice Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials, as
`
`set forth in Part 42 of the C.F.R.;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Reyes shall provide the Board with
`
`the name of his law firm and an email address at which he may be contacted;
`
`and
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Reyes shall be subject to the Office’s
`
`disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a) and the Office’s Rules of
`
`Professional Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101–11.901.
