`
`PATENT OWNER’S MOTION TO SEAL
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2017-01374
`Patent Owner’s Motion to Seal
`
`
`STATEMENT OF PRECISE RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.14 and 42.54, Patent Owner Genentech, Inc.
`
`respectfully requests that the Board seal the Patent Owner’s Response.
`
`REASONS FOR RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`Although “the default rule is that all papers filed in an inter partes review
`
`are open and available for access by the public,” a party may file a motion with the
`
`Board to seal confidential information that is protected from disclosure. Garmin v.
`
`Cuozzo, IPR2012-00001, Paper No. 36. “The standard for granting a motion to
`
`seal is ‘for good cause.’” Id. (quoting 37 C.F.R § 42.54). The Office Patent Trial
`
`Practice Guide, 77 Fed. Reg. 48756, 48760 (Aug. 14, 2012), states that the “rules
`
`identify confidential information in a manner consistent with Federal Rule of Civil
`
`Procedure (“FRCP”) 26(c)(1)(G), which provides for protective orders for trade
`
`secret or other confidential research, development, or commercial information.”
`
`The parties have conferred and agreed to the provisions of the Modified
`
`Default Standing Protective Order set forth in Exhibit 2030, and have stipulated to
`
`be bound to the terms set forth therein. Exhibit 2031 shows the proposed
`
`modifications from the Default Standing Protective Order, to which the parties
`
`have stipulated, in redline. The Modified Default Standing Protective Order
`
`provides:

`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2017-01374
`Patent Owner’s Motion to Seal
`
`
`Where confidentiality is alleged as to some but not all of the
`
`information submitted to the Board, the submitting party shall file
`
`confidential and non-confidential versions of its submission, together
`
`with a Motion to Seal the confidential version setting forth the reasons
`
`why the information redacted from the non-confidential version is
`
`confidential and should not be made available to the public. The
`
`nonconfidential version of the submission shall clearly indicate the
`
`locations of information that has been redacted. The confidential
`
`version of the submission shall be filed under seal. The redacted
`
`information shall remain under seal unless, upon motion of a party
`
`and after a hearing on the issue, or sua sponte, the Board determines
`
`that some or all of the redacted information does not qualify for
`
`confidential treatment.
`
`(Ex. 2030, Modified Default Standing Protective Order and Patent Owner’s
`
`Certification of Agreement to Terms, at 3-4.)
`
`Patent Owner has filed its Patent Owner’s Response under seal, as well as a
`
`publicly-available redacted version of its Response. The redacted portions of
`
`Patent Owner’s Response contain confidential research and development activities
`
`conducted by scientists at Genentech, and are therefore “confidential research
`
`[and] development . . . information” pursuant to FRCP 26(c)(1)(G).

`Patent Owner’s Motion to Seal
`
`
`Patent Owner therefore respectfully requests that its Patent Owner’s
`
`Response remain under seal pursuant to the Proposed Modified Default Standing
`
`Protective Order.
