`Patent 7,092,671
`PETITIONER’S NOTICE OF OBJECTIONS TO EVIDENCE
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioner Unified Patents (“Petitioner”)
`
`IPR2018-00199
`
`hereby submits its notice of objections to certain evidence that Patent Owner
`
`UNILOC LUXEMBOURG S.A. & UNILOC USA (“Patent Owner”) included with
`
`the Patent Owner’s Response filed September 21, 20181 in connection with Trial No.
`
`IPR2018-00199. The following objections are timely filed within five business days
`
`of September 21, 2018, which is the date of service of evidence to which the
`
`objections are directed. 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1).
`
`Petitioner objects to the following Exhibits 2001-2004 under Fed. R. Evid. 901
`
`(Authenticating or Identifying Evidence) because they have not been authenticated.
`
`Patent Owner has failed to produce evidence sufficient to support a finding that
`
`Exhibits 2001-2004 are what Patent Owner claims they are.
`
`• Exhibit 2001 (described by Patent Owner as “Screenshot of the home page
`
`for Unified Patents, Inc. for the date, April 13, 2013, as retrieved from the
`
`Internet Archive's Wayback Machine (WBM), available at
`
`https://web.archive.org/web/ 20130413073000/http://www.unifiedpatents.
`
`com: SO/solution/unified patents.html”);
`
`
`1 Petitioner notes that while the signature blocks of the Patent Owner’s Response
`
`include a date of September 19, 2018, the Patent Owner’s Response was filed on
`
`September 21, 2018, and service was provided to Petitioner on September 21, 2018.

`
`• Exhibit 2002 (described by Patent Owner as “An article by Marta Belcher
`
`and John Casey entitled Hacking the Patent System: A Guide to Alternative
`
`Patent Licensing for Innovators. Juelsgaard Intellectual Property &
`
`Innovation Clinic, Stanford Law School (2014), as archived by the Internet

`
`• Exhibit 2003 (described by Patent Owner as “Screenshot of Unified
`
`Patents' public webpage entitled Benefits for Large Company Members, as
`
`archived by the WBM, available at https://web.archive.org/web/
`
`20130907064849/http://www.unifiedpatents .com: SO/benefits/large

`
`Patents' public webpage entitled Compare Unified Patents to Other
`
`Options, as archived by the WBM, available at https://web.archive.org
`
`/web/20140606010956/http://unifiedpatents.com:80/”)
`
`
`
`Patent Owner has provided declaration testimony from its counsel, Brett
`
`Mangrum, stating that Exhibits 2001-2004 are true and correct copies. See
`
`Declaration of Brett A. Mangrum at pp. ii-iii (EX2006). However, this testimony is
`
`not sufficient to support a finding that Exhibits 2001-2004 are what Patent Owner
`
`
`- 3 -
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2018-00199
`
`claims they are, and is therefore not sufficient to authenticate these exhibits. See e.g.,
`
`Comcast Cable Communications, LLC v. Rovi Guides, Inc., IPR2017-00941, Paper
`
`70 at pp. 54-56 (noting that to authenticate printouts from a website, Board panels
`
`have required some statement or affidavit from someone with knowledge of the
`
`website, such as a web master or someone else with personal knowledge). Mr.
`
`Mangrum has not testified that he has personal knowledge of the Internet Archive to
`
`describe how webpages from the years 2013 and 2014, reflected in the screen shots
`
`of exhibits 2001, 2003, and 2004, as well as the document of Exhibit 2002 (obtained
`
`via the Internet Archive), have been accurately preserved and subsequently made
`
`available to internet searches.
`
`As a matter of evidence in this proceeding, Petitioner also objects to Exhibit
`
`2002 under Fed. R. Evid. 802 (Hearsay). Exhibit 2002 contains out of court
`
`statements offered for the truth of the matter asserted.
