`Trial Hearing
`37 C.F.R. § 42.70
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2017-00338
`Patent 9,098,685 B2
`
`
`Petitioner and Patent Owner have each requested oral argument
`pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a). Papers 32, 34. The requests for oral
`argument are hereby granted to the extent described below.
`Each party will have 30 minutes to present its arguments.
`Petitioner bears the ultimate burden of proof that the claims at issue in this
`review are unpatentable. See 35 U.S.C. § 316(e). At oral argument,
`therefore, Petitioner will proceed first to present its case on the grounds of
`patentability on which we instituted trial. Thereafter, Patent Owner will
`argue its opposition to Petitioner’s case. To the extent Petitioner reserves
`rebuttal time, Petitioner then may make use of its rebuttal time responding to
`Patent Owner.
`Oral argument will commence at 1:00 PM Eastern Time on
`Monday, April 9, 2018, at the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office,
`Madison Building East, Ninth Floor, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria,
`Virginia. All attendees will need a valid form of government-issued
`identification in order to enter the building and may be subject to security
`screening. The hearing will be open to the public for in-person attendance,
`and in-person attendance will be accommodated on a first-come, first-served
`basis. If the parties have any concern about disclosing confidential
`information, they are to contact the Board at least ten (10) business days
`before the hearing to discuss the matter. The Board will provide a court
`reporter for the hearing, and the reporter’s transcript will constitute the
`official record of the oral argument.
`At least seven (7) business days prior to oral argument, each party
`shall serve on the other party any demonstrative(s) it intends to use during
`oral argument. See 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(b). The parties shall also provide the
`
`2
`
`
`
`IPR2017-00338
`Patent 9,098,685 B2
`
`demonstrative(s) to the Board at trials@uspto.gov at least five (5) business
`days prior to oral argument. Demonstratives, however, are not evidence,
`but merely a visual aid at the oral arguments. Demonstratives shall not
`introduce new evidence or raise new arguments, but instead, shall cite
`only to evidence and argument in the record. Demonstratives shall not
`become part of the evidentiary record of this proceeding. The parties are
`directed to St. Jude Medical, Cardiology Division, Inc. v. The Board of
`Regents of the University of Michigan, Case IPR2013-00041 (PTAB Jan. 27,
`2014) (Paper 65) and CBS Interactive Inc. v. Helferich Patent Licensing,
`LLC, IPR2013-00033, (PTAB Oct. 23, 2013) (Paper 118), for guidance
`regarding the appropriate content of demonstrative exhibits.
`The parties shall confer and attempt to resolve any objections to
`demonstratives prior to involving the Board. The parties must request a
`conference call with the Board at least three (3) business days before the
`hearing to present any unresolved objection regarding the propriety of any
`demonstrative. Any unresolved objection to demonstratives that is not
`timely presented will be considered waived. The Board asks the parties to
`confine demonstrative objections to those identifying egregious violations
`that are prejudicial to the administration of justice. To aid in the preparation
`of an accurate transcript, each party shall provide paper copies of its
`demonstratives to the court reporter on the day of the oral argument. Such
`paper copies shall not become part of the evidentiary record of this
`proceeding.
`The parties are reminded that each presenter must identify clearly and
`specifically each demonstrative (e.g., by slide or screen number), paper, or
`exhibit referenced during the oral arguments to ensure the clarity and
`
`3
`
`
`
`IPR2017-00338
`Patent 9,098,685 B2
`
`accuracy of the transcript. The parties also should note that at least one
`member of the panel may be attending the oral argument electronically from
`a remote location and that if any demonstrative is not made fully available or
`visible to the entire panel, that demonstrative will not be considered.
`Because of limitations of the audio transmission systems in the hearing
`rooms, the presenter may speak only when standing at the hearing room
`lectern. If the parties have questions as to whether demonstratives would be
`sufficiently visible and available to all of the judges, the parties are invited
`to contact the Board at (571) 272-9797.
`The Board expects lead counsel for each party to be present in person
`at oral argument. If a party anticipates that its lead counsel will not be
`attending oral argument, the parties should request a joint telephone
`conference with the Board no later than seven (7) business days prior to the
`oral argument to discuss the matter. Any counsel of record, however, may
`present the party’s arguments.
`Lead counsel and back-up counsel may use portable computers in the
`hearing room at the counsel tables and at the hearing room lectern. Requests
`for audio-visual equipment and/or special accommodations are to be made
`five (5) business days in advance of the oral argument date. The requests are
`to be sent to Trials@uspto.gov. If the requests are not received timely, the
`equipment or accommodations may not be available on the day of the
`hearing. The parties should note that images projected, using audio-visual
`equipment in Alexandria, will not be visible to the judge(s) attending the
`hearing electronically.
