`
`
`
`Case IPR2018-00487
`Patent 7,239,111 B2
`
`
`Fundamental Innovation Systems International LLC (“Patent Owner”)
`filed a Motion for pro hac vice admission of Jason G. Sheasby.1 Paper 7
`(“Mot.”). Patent Owner provided a Declaration of Mr. Sheasby in support of
`the Motion.2 Ex. 2015. Patent Owner states that Huawei Device Co., Ltd.
`(“Petitioner”) does not oppose Patent Owner’s Motion. Mot. 5.
`Having reviewed the Motion and the Declaration of Mr. Sheasby, we
`conclude that Mr. Sheasby has sufficient qualifications to represent Patent
`Owner in this proceeding and that Patent Owner has shown good cause for
`Mr. Sheasby’s pro hac vice admission. See Unified Patents, Inc. v. Parallel
`Iron, LLC, IPR2013-00639, Order Authorizing Motion for Pro Hac Vice
`Admission, Paper 7 (PTAB Oct. 15, 2013) (setting forth requirements for
`pro hac vice admission). Mr. Sheasby is permitted to appear pro hac vice in
`this proceeding as back-up counsel only. See 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c).
`
`
`ORDER
`
`
`
`It is:
`ORDERED that Patent Owner’s Motion for pro hac vice admission of
`Jason G. Sheasby is granted, and Mr. Sheasby is authorized to represent
`Patent Owner only as back-up counsel in this proceeding;
`
`
`1 The caption of Patent Owner’s Motion and the supporting declaration
`identify “Jason S. Sheasby.” Paper 7 at 1; Ex. 2015 at 1. The declaration,
`however, is signed by Jason G. Sheasby. Ex. 2015 at 4. We understand that
`the captions contain a typographical error and that Patent Owner is
`requesting pro hac vice admission of Jason G. Sheasby.
`2 In Paragraph 8 of the Declaration, Mr. Sheasby refers to “part 42 of the
`C.F.R.” Ex. 2015. We assume that he intended to refer to Part 42 of Title
`37, Code of Federal Regulations.
