`
`DECISION
`Petitioner’s Unopposed Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice of
`Brady Cox
`37 C.F.R. § 42.10
`
`
`1 Cavium, Inc., which filed petitions in Cases IPR2018-00400 and IPR2018-
`00403 and Dell Inc., which filed petitions in IPR2018-01306 and IPR2018-
`01307, were joined as petitioners in IPR2018-00226 and IPR2018-00234,
`respectively. According to updated mandatory notices filed in the captioned
`proceedings, Cavium, Inc. has now been converted to Cavium, LLC. See,
`e.g., IPR2018-00226, Paper 28.
`
`
`
`Case IPR2018-00226 (Patent 7,124,205 B2)
`Case IPR2018-00234 (Patent 8,805,948 B2)
`
`
`
`Petitioner (“Dell Inc.”) filed an Unopposed Motion for Admission Pro
`Hac Vice of Brady Cox in the above-captioned proceedings. IPR2018-
`00226 Paper 69; IPR2018-00234 Paper 60 (collectively “Motions”).
`Petitioner also filed Declarations of Mr. Cox in support of its Motions.2
`IPR2018-00226 Ex. 1503; IPR2018-00234 Ex. 1503. With the exception of
`referring to the Office’s previous Rules of Professional Conduct set forth in
`parts 10 and 11 of 37 C.F.R., instead of the Office’s current Rules of
`Professional Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et. seq. (Ex. 1503 ¶ 8),
`the facts alleged in the Declarations comply with all of the requirements set
`forth in our representative Order authorizing motions for pro hac vice
`admission. See Ex. 1503 ¶¶ 2–5, 7, 8; Mot. 2–3.
`The Motions represents that Patent Owner does not oppose. IPR2018-
`00226 Paper 69, 9; IPR2018-00234 Paper 60, 8. We have reviewed the
`submissions and determined that the requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 42.10 have
`been met and there is good cause to admit Mr. Cox pro hac vice, subject to
`Mr. Cox filing a corrected declaration, separately as an exhibit in each case,
`indicating that he will be subject to the Office’s Rules of Professional
`Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq.
`
`
`
`2 Petitioner’s Motions erroneously refer to the Declaration as Exhibit 1500.
`We located the Declaration as Exhibit 1503 in both cases. We find
`Petitioner’s typographic error to be harmless.

`
`Case IPR2018-00226 (Patent 7,124,205 B2)
`Case IPR2018-00234 (Patent 8,805,948 B2)
`
`
`It is, therefore,
`ORDERED that Petitioner’s Unopposed Motions for Admission Pro
`Hac Vice of Brady Cox are provisionally granted, subject to Mr. Cox filing a
`corrected declaration, separately as an exhibit in each case, indicating that he
`will be subject to the Office’s Rules of Professional Conduct set forth in 37
`C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq.;
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Cox will be authorized to represent
`Petitioner only as back-up counsel in the instant proceeding;
`FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner is to continue to have a
`registered practitioner as lead counsel in the instant proceeding;
`FURTHER ORDERED that Mr. Cox is to comply with the Office
`Patent Trial Practice Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials, as
`set forth in Title 37, Part 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations; and
`FURTHER ORDERED that, upon filing corrected declarations,
`Mr. Cox shall be subject to the USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct set
`forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq. and the Office’s disciplinary jurisdiction
`under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a).
