`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`I.
`INTRODUCTION AND STATEMENT OF PRECISE RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 CFR §42.12 and the Order dated Feb 10, 2018 (Paper 41),
`
`Patent Owner (“Caltech”) requests sanctions against Petitioner. The Order
`
`followed a conference call on Feb 6, and additional communications. EX2036.
`
`Cross-examination in an inter partes review proceeding is trial testimony
`
`and strictly limited in scope, unlike expansive discovery depositions.
`
`§42.53(d)(5)(ii). During cross-examination of Caltech’s witnesses, Dr.
`
`Mitzenmacher and Dr. Divsalar, Petitioner repeatedly failed to stay within the
`
`proper scope. Petitioner’s conduct violated numerous Board rules and orders, and
`
`was an abuse of the discovery process. Indeed, Petitioner’s unauthorized
`
`questioning amounts to “additional discovery” which Petitioner did not, and could
`
`not, demonstrate was necessary “in the interests of justice.” §42.51(b)(2)(i).
`
`II. LEGAL STANDARD
`
`Under §42.12(a) & (b), the Board may “impose a sanction against a party for
`
`misconduct.” Acts of misconduct include, inter alia, “failure to comply with an
`
`applicable rule or order,” “abuse of discovery,” and “actions that harass” or cause
`
`“unnecessary increase in the cost of the proceeding.” Id.; 35 U.S.C. §316(a)(6).
`
`“[T]he scope of the examination is limited to the scope of the direct
`
`testimony.” 37 CFR §42.53(d)(5)(ii); see also FRE 611(b) (“Cross-examination
`
`should not go beyond the subject matter of the direct examination and matters
`
`-1-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`affecting the witness’s credibility.”). In addition to a violation of Rule 53,
`
`
`
`“excessive questioning beyond the scope of a witness's direct testimony may be
`
`considered an abuse of discovery.” IPR2013-00043, Paper 36 (July 16, 2013).
`
`Moreover, discovery during inter partes review is strictly limited, and the
`
`Board’s rules delineate between “routine discovery” and “additional discovery.” A
`
`party seeking additional discovery must do so by motion, and must show that such
`
`additional discovery is “necessary in the interest of justice.” 35 U.S.C. §316(a)(5);
`
`see 37 CFR §42.51(b)(2)(i). Unauthorized additional discovery is a violation of
`
`the Board’s rules and subject to sanctions. 37 CFR §42.12(a); see also Apple Inc.
`
`v. Smartflash LLC, CMB2014-00102, Paper 20 at 2-4 (“The Board may impose an
`
`appropriate sanction for abuse of discovery, including failure to adhere to the
`
`Board’s rules governing taking testimony and the Testimony Guidelines. 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 42.12… Patent Owner now attempts to elicit information through deposition that
`
`was denied to it as additional discovery.”).
`
`III. ARGUMENT
`
`As identified in Ex 2037 (and examples discussed below), an extraordinary
`
`amount of Dr. Divsalar’s and Dr. Mitzenmacher’s cross-examination testimony
`
`was beyond the scope of their respective declarations, and on many occasions,
`
`beyond the scope of the six pending IPR proceedings between the parties.
`
`-2-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`A. Dr. Divsalar
`
`
`
`Dr. Divsalar provided a short declaration addressing only a few discrete
`
`points relating specifically to the Divsalar reference (EX2031). In particular, Dr.
`
`Divsalar explained that the reference related to an “extremely simple” code
`
`designed for the limited research purpose of mathematically assessing the “IGE
`
`conjecture” relating to Berrou’s code. EX2031, ¶¶19, 23, 24, 29. Dr. Divsalar
`
`explained that while the RA code was good for that limited exercise, the code still
`
`performed “rather poor[ly]” compared to other correcting codes at the time. Id. at
`
`¶ 32. Dr. Divsalar expressed his view that modifying an RA code to include
`
`irregular repetition of information bits would not make sense on the basis that it
`
`would add unnecessary difficulty and complexity at odds with the stated objective
`
`in the paper, with no expectation of a corresponding benefit. Id. at ¶¶ 33-36. Dr.
`
`Divsalar was also asked to address the hypothetical modification suggested by
`
`Petitioner, which he explained was nonsensical and at odds with a key conclusion
`
`in the Divsalar paper. Id. at ¶ 37. Dr. Divsalar did not address, nor was he asked
`
`to address, any reference other than the Divsalar reference.
`
`Despite the limited scope of Dr. Divsalar’s 16-page declaration (about 13
`
`pages excluding qualifications, etc.), Petitioner’s district court counsel (appearing
`
`pro hac vice) embarked upon a discovery campaign of generating over 280
`
`transcript pages on a wide range of topics not addressed in Dr. Divsalar’s direct
`
`-3-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`testimony. Tucker v. Peiler, 297 F. 570, 574-75 (2d Cir. 1924) (Comparing
`
`
`
`“…approximately 109 questions on direct examination and 700 questions on cross-
`
`examination” to conclude “the cross-examination has been unduly prolonged.”).
`
`The improper scope of questioning could not have been lost on Petitioner’s
`
`counsel, as Dr. Divsalar reminded counsel over 100 times that questions were
`
`being directed to subject matter not discussed in his declaration. See, e.g.,
`
`EX1064, 141:28-12 (“I haven’t considered this exhibit in my declaration and I
`
`have not prepared anything regarding this evidence here so since I’m not well
`
`prepared to answer the specifics, I cannot really, you know, answer accurately your
`
`questions.”); see also, e.g., 64:24-65:1; 78:9-11; 87:14-18; 95:13-17; 99:15-18;
`
`115:4-7; 128:19-22; 134:2-5; 147:18-24; 156:12-17; 158:5-11; 159:2-14; 159:21-
`
`160:3; 178:4-7; 184:24-185:2; 186:14-15; 188:11-12; 201:23-202:4; 243:7-9.
`
`(Citations are to Ex 1064 of IPR2017-00210, which corresponds with Ex 1264 (-
`
`219), Ex 2039 (-700, -701, -728)).
`
`Nevertheless, counsel on multiple occasions expressed utter disregard for the
`
`limited scope of Dr. Divsalar’s direct testimony. See, e.g., EX1064, 64:24-65:3
`
`(“THE WITNESS: We haven’t talked about that, my declaration I didn’t mention
`
`anything how to do, you know, [irregular] repetition in any way. Q. Whether it is in
`
`your declaration or not, …”); 92:17-21 (“Q. So let me just give you the question.
`
`We have Exhibit 1057. A. Which I haven’t discussed in my declaration. Q. I will
`
`-4-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`grant you that. So for purposes of answering this question I take that as a given.”);
`
`
`
`see also, e.g., 81:14-16; 85:25-86:10; 90:2-8; 128:3-11.
`
`The Allerton Conference: Dr. Divsalar provided no testimony regarding the
`
`Allerton Conference other than stating the paper title and submission location.
`
`Yet, Petitioner’s counsel questioned him about his attendance at the Allerton
`
`Conferences and the Conference’s publication practices. See, e.g., EX1064, 30:24-
`
`25 (“Is the Allerton Conference open to the public?”); 31:3-5 (“And when you
`
`attend Allerton do you have to sign a nondisclosure agreement or any
`
`confidentiality agreement of any kind?”); 36:3-6. Such questions were an
`
`improper attempt to elicit fact discovery about the publication of the Frey
`
`reference—an issue in dispute but unaddressed in Dr. Divsalar’s declaration.
`
`Attorney-Created Tanner Graphs: Dr. Divsalar’s testimony on Tanner graphs
`
`was that he and his co-authors at the time “did not consider Tanner graph
`
`representation useful or applicable to concatenated convolutional codes.” EX2031,
`
`¶ 26. Yet Petitioner chose to ask numerous questions about various Tanner graphs
`
`newly generated by Petitioner’s lawyers, with no connection to Dr. Divsalar’s
`
`direct testimony (see, e.g., EX1064, 78:4-5 (“Am I correct that this Exhibit 1057
`
`shows the Tanner graph of an RA code where Q equals five?”); 106:11-14 (“It is
`
`possible to do it and also Exhibit 1058 is one example. It is a demonstrative of an
`
`irregular repeat-accumulate code, right?”)); 81:6-19 (“Q. Whether you considered
`
`-5-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`[representing RA codes with Tanner graphs] or not…”)); 115:24-116:3 (“In
`
`
`
`making this change that’s shown in Ex. 1059…”)).
`
`These questions were never used to assess Dr. Divsalar’s credentials or
`
`credibility. They are transparent attempts to generate “additional discovery” and
`
`new evidence for use in new arguments for Petitioner’s reply briefs. Indeed, these
`
`figures and arguments are not in the petition materials, but are used to support new
`
`argument in Petitioner’s Replies. See, e.g., IPR2017-00210 Reply at 12.
`
`References not Addressed in Direct Testimony: Dr. Divsalar was clear that
`
`his declaration only addressed his Divsalar reference and limited points of
`
`consideration—not any other references. See, e.g., EX1064, 45:7-11 (“Q. So the
`
`opinions you express in your declaration, they do not consider the Frey “Irregular
`
`Turbocodes” paper? A. I haven’t mentioned prior art all in my declaration.”);
`
`45:16-17 (“For preparation of my declaration I haven’t considered Luby at all.”);
`
`141:18-23 (“I haven’t considered this exhibit [Luby] in my declaration and … I
`
`cannot really, you know, answer accurately your questions.”); 198:4-7 (“I haven’t
`
`read carefully [Frey] or prepared myself to answer this question. So I may – I can
`
`make mistake and say something which is totally nonsense.”). Yet, Petitioner
`
`proceeded to ask detailed questions, over several hours, regarding such references.
`
`While Petitioner was entitled to ask which references were considered and
`
`which were not, detailed questions about references expressly identified as not
`
`-6-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`forming the basis of Dr. Divsalar’s opinion were inappropriate. See 1964 Ears,
`
`
`
`LLC v. Jerry Harvey Audio Holding, LLC, IPR2016-00494, Paper 56, p. 21 (July
`
`19, 2017) (“[B]ecause Mr. Kadis’ opinion … was not based on the teachings of
`
`Van Halteren ’223, Patent Owner’s questioning of Mr. Kadis regarding … Van
`
`Halteren ’223 was beyond the proper scope of cross-examination.”).
`
`Moreover, counsel attempted to leverage Dr. Divsalar’s lack of recent
`
`review of the references to mischaracterize the content of those references. For
`
`example, Mr. Dowd attempted to conflate Luby’s “message nodes” with
`
`information bits. cf. EX1064, 147:20-24 Petitioner attempts to perpetuate this
`
`confusion in its -219 Reply brief (e.g., pp. 1-3). But Luby never discusses
`
`repetition of information bits. Dr. Mitzenmacher addressed this distinction at
`
`length in his direct testimony. Mr. Dowd also mischaracterized Frey including,
`
`inter alia, overstating realization of a coding gain in Frey. EX1064, 239:20-40.
`
`But as explained by Dr. Mitzenmacher and stated in Frey, every profile Frey
`
`actually tested was worse than Berrou’s regular turbo code. Id., p. 245, Figure 3.
`
`Other examples include questions about the CCSDS standard, specific patent
`
`claim limitations, Dr. Divsalar’s relationship with Dr. Frey, a 2005 paper by Dr.
`
`Divsalar, and generator matrices. See Ex. 2037.
`
`B. Dr. Mitzenmacher
`
`In contrast to the limited testimony from Dr. Divsalar, Dr. Mitzenmacher
`
`-7-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`appeared as Caltech’s primary expert witness, submitting four declarations
`
`
`
`addressing the petition materials. Dr. Mitzenmacher’s deposition also ventured
`
`into various topics beyond the scope of the witness’ direct testimony. EX1062.1
`
`Examples of improper questioning are provided below and in Exhibit 2037.
`
`For example, like Dr. Divsalar, Dr. Mitzenmacher was subjected to
`
`extensive questioning regarding Tanner graphs and figures newly created by
`
`Petitioner’s lawyers, but absent from any petition materials or the witness’ direct
`
`testimony. This included questions directed to Exhibits 1044 through 1049. See,
`
`e.g., EX1062, 66:10-16 (“[T]his is a document we’ve made. You’ve now been
`
`served a copy of it, but this is a document that neither you or the witness have seen
`
`before and I’m going to ask questions about.”). Aside from the prejudice of Dr.
`
`Mitzenmacher being ambushed by these exhibits, the exhibits appear to be an
`
`attempt to present new patentability theories in Petitioner’s Reply briefs.
`
`Moreover, several of the ’032 patent claims require encoding in accordance with a
`
`Tanner graph. Caltech’s briefing has criticized the petition materials for failure to
`
`provide sufficient Tanner graph analysis or explain why a POSA would describe
`
`
`
`1 Citations are to Ex 1062 in IPR2017-00210—see corresponding Ex 1262 (-
`
`219), Ex. 1045 (-297), Ex. 2038 (-700, -701, -728).
`
`-8-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`those prior art codes with Tanner graphs in the manner Caltech’s patents chose to
`
`
`
`illustrate codes. Petitioner’s new exhibits appeared to be directly geared only
`
`toward improperly presenting new arguments not in its petitions.
`
`Dr. Mitzenmacher was also questioned about topics that appear to be related
`
`to the district court litigation, but not these IPRs. For example, Dr. Mitzenmacher
`
`was asked about the 802.11n WiFi standard that Caltech has accused of
`
`infringement in the district court litigation. See, e.g., EX1062, 445:11-12 (“Have
`
`you ever looked at implementation of an 802.11n compliant encoder?”); 446:5-7.
`
`Petitioner’s counsel also asked numerous questions about proposed
`
`modifications to Divsalar absent from the petition materials. For example,
`
`Petitioner’s Reply briefing now makes clear it has chosen to abandon its original
`
`theory of modifying a q=3 RA code such that information bits are equally repeated
`
`2 and 4 times. See, e.g., IPR2017-00210, Paper 35, pp.44-48 . Petitioner misused
`
`the deposition of Dr. Mitzenmacher to fish for alternate theories. See, e.g.,
`
`EX1062, 147:2-6 (“[S]o one bit was repeated Q+1 times, and all the other bits
`
`were repeated Q times.”); 401:14-18 (“If Divsalar were modified so that some bits
`
`were repeated three times and other bits were repeated four times…”).
`
`C.
`
`Petitioner’s Conduct Warrants Sanctions
`
`During the February 6, 2018 conference call, the panel noted a typical
`
`remedy is to give no weight to such improperly elicited testimony. Certainly such
`
`-9-
`
`

`

`Case IPR2017-00701
`Patent 7,421,032
`testimony in this case should be given no weight, but sanctions are additionally
`
`
`
`warranted in view of the extraordinary circumstances presented here. Without
`
`sanctions, future parties will not be deterred from flouting the Board’s rules when
`
`the only risk is not gaining an advantage. Accordingly, the Board should impose
`
`one or more of the sanctions listed 37 CFR §42.12(b), and further identified below.
`
`First, the cross-examination testimony of the witnesses should be struck
`
`from the record. §42.12(b)(2). At a minimum, testimony elicited in violation of
`
`§42.53(d)(5)(ii) should be struck from the record. Second, an order should issue
`
`holding the direct testimony of both Dr. Mitzenmacher and Dr. Divsalar are
`
`deemed facts established in the IPR proceedings. §42.12(b)(1). Third, an order
`
`should provide for reasonable compensatory expenses, including attorney fees, for
`
`costs reasonably related to excessive questioning and deposition time.
`
`§42.12(b)(6). Moreover, a reprimand is warranted to highlight that pro hac vice
`
`admission requires abiding by the Board’s rules and procedures.
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`
`For the reasons above, Caltech’s request for sanctions should be granted.
