`
`PATENT OWNER’S REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT
`
`
`
`IPR2018-00293
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70, Patent Owner respectfully requests oral
`
`argument in this case, which is currently scheduled for April 4, 2019. Patent Owner
`
`requests 90 minutes to present its arguments. Without intending to waive any issue
`
`not specifically identified, Patent Owner specifies the following issues to be argued:
`
`1. Whether Petitioner has met its burden of proving claims 1-29 are
`
`unpatentable as obvious over the combination of Adderall XR and Burnside.
`
`2. Whether Petitioner has met its burden of proving claims 1-29 are
`
`unpatentable as obvious over Burnside.
`
`3. Whether Petitioner has met its burden of proving claims 1-29 are
`
`unpatentable as anticipated by Burnside.
`
`4. Any issues specified by Petitioner in its Request for Oral Argument.
`
`5. Rebuttal to Petitioner’s presentation on all matters; and
`
`6. Any other issues that the Board deems necessary for issuing a final
`
`written decision.
`
`Patent Owner requests the ability to use a digital projector and screen for use
`
`with a laptop computer to display demonstrative exhibits, but Patent Owner will
`
`1
`
`
`
`IPR2018-00293
`
`direct that request to trials@uspto.gov not less than five days before the hearing,
`
`unless the Board instructs otherwise.
