`
`UNILOC LUXEMBOURG S.A. & UNILOC USA
`Patent Owner
`
`
`IPR2018-00199
`Patent 7,092,671
`
`
`MOTION TO SEAL PETITIONER’S REPLY AND EXHIBIT 1022
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`I.
`
`Introduction
`Petitioner requests that Petitioner’s Reply to Patent Owner’s Response, and
`
`IPR2018-00199
`U.S. Patent 7,092,671
`
`Exhibit 1022, filed herewith, be sealed under 37 C.F.R. § 42.54 and the Default
`
`Standing Protective Order (EX1017). Good cause to seal these documents exists
`
`because they contain sensitive, non-public information.
`
`II. Good Cause Exists for Sealing Certain Confidential Information
`The Office Patent Trial Practice Guide provides that “the rules aim to strike a
`
`balance between the public’s interest in maintaining a complete and understandable
`
`file history and the parties’ interest in protecting truly sensitive information.” 77
`
`FED. REG. 48756, 48760 (Aug. 14, 2012). Further, those rules “identify confidential
`
`information in a manner consistent with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
`
`26(c)(1)(G), which provides for protective orders for trade secret or other
`
`confidential research, development, or commercial information.” Id. (citing 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.54).
`
`Petitioner’s Reply and Exhibit 1022 contain information that Petitioner has
`
`identified as confidential business information.
`
`Petitioner’s Reply to Patent Owner’s Response references and describes
`
`the content of certain confidential materials, that Petitioner requests by the present
`
`motion to file under seal and has been marked “PROTECTIVE ORDER
`
`MATERIAL” under the Protective Order in this case. A public version of
`2
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2018-00199
`U.S. Patent 7,092,671
`Petitioner’s Reply, from which the confidential information has been redacted, has
`
`
`
`also been filed in this proceeding.
`
`Exhibit 1022 is a Declaration of Kevin Jakel and has been marked
`
`“PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIAL” under the Protective Order in this case. This
`
`declaration includes sensitive business information which Petitioner asserts has not
`
`been published or otherwise been made public. A public version of Exhibit 1022,
`
`from which the confidential information has been redacted, has also been filed in
`
`this proceeding.
`
`III. Conclusion
`
`
`For the above reasons, Petitioner requests that the unredacted and complete
`
`versions of Petitioner’s Reply and Exhibit 1022 be placed under seal.
