`Conduct of the Proceeding
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`
`On January 5, 2018, Patent Owner, Alacritech, Inc., filed an
`authorized Motion for Additional Discovery. See, e.g., IPR2017-01392,
`Paper 18 (“Motion” or “Mot.”).2 On January 10, 2018, Petitioner, Intel
`Corporation and Cavium, Inc., filed an Opposition to Patent Owner’s Motion
`for Additional Discovery. See, e.g., IPR2017-01392, Paper 19
`(“Opposition” or “Opp.”).3 In an e-mail message to the Board on
`January 12, 2018, Patent Owner indicated that Petitioner had expressed
`concern that the Motion improperly included some of Petitioner’s
`confidential information and requested that the Motion filed in each of these
`matters be expunged. In response, the Board informed the parties by e-mail
`that the Motion in each of these matters was re-designated as “Board and
`Parties Only” to protect any alleged confidential information and that the
`Patent Owner was authorized to re-file a redacted version of each Motion by
`January 22, 2018. The Patent Owner did not re-file redacted versions of
`these papers and, in an e-mail message to the Board on January 29, 2018,
`confirmed that they do not intend to re-file the Motion in these matters.
`
`
