`Patent 8,698,558 B2
`
`
`Both parties have requested oral argument in these matters. Papers
`24, 25 (IPR2018-01152); Papers 23, 24 (IPR2018-01153, IPR2018-01154,
`and IPR2018-01240). By joint email dated September 20, 2019, the paties
`also requested a prehearing conference. See Ex. 3001. In lieu of a
`prehearing conference, the parties requested an Order specifying the time,
`location, and duration of the oral hearing. Id. The parties jointly requested
`90 minutes per side for a consolidated hearing for IPR2018-01152,
`IPR2018-01153, IPR2018-01154, and IPR2018-01240. Id. We will hold a
`consolidated hearing for these cases because they involve the same patent,
`and we determine that three hours of total argument time will be sufficient
`for the consolidated hearing. Therefore, each party will be allocated 90
`minutes for argument. In light of this Order, no prehearing conference will
`be scheduled.
`The hearing will commence at 1:00 PM Eastern Time on October
`28, 2019. The hearing will be conducted on the ninth floor of Madison
`Building East, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria, Virginia. The hearing will
`be open to the public for in-person attendance, which will be accommodated
`on a first-come, first-served basis. If the parties have concerns about
`disclosing confidential information, they are requested to contact the Board
`at least ten business days in advance of the hearing to discuss the matter.
`Petitioner will proceed first to present its case with regard to the
`challenged claims. Petitioner may reserve some, but not more than one half,
`of its argument time for rebuttal. Thereafter, Patent Owner will respond to
`Petitioner’s case and may reserve some of its argument time, for sur-rebuttal.
`Next, Petitioner may use any time it has reserved for rebuttal to respond to

`
`Patent Owner’s specific arguments presented at the hearing. Then, Patent
`Owner may present a brief sur-rebuttal if it has reserved time. No live
`testimony from any witness will be taken at the oral argument.
`Any demonstrative exhibits shall be served at least five (5) business
`days before the hearing. The parties shall confer regarding any objections to
`demonstrative exhibits, and file demonstrative exhibits with the Board, as a
`separate exhibit, at least three (3) business days prior to the hearing. The
`parties are reminded that the demonstrative exhibits presented in this case
`are not evidence and are intended only to assist the parties in presenting their
`oral argument to the panel. The parties are directed to St. Jude Medical,
`Cardiology Division, Inc. v. Board of Regents of the University of Michigan,
`Case IPR2013-00041, slip op. 2–5 (PTAB Jan. 27, 2014) (Paper 65), for
`guidance regarding the appropriate content of demonstrative exhibits. For
`any issue regarding the proposed demonstrative exhibits that cannot be
`resolved after conferring with the opposing party, the parties may file jointly
`a one-page list of objections at least two (2) business days prior to the
`hearing. The list should identify with particularity which demonstrative
`exhibits are subject to objection and include a short statement (no more than
`one concise sentence) of the reason for each objection. No argument or
`further explanation is permitted. We will consider the objections and may
`schedule a conference call, if necessary, to discuss them. Typically,
`however, we reserve ruling on the objections until the hearing or until a
`ruling is necessary to resolve the dispute. Any objection to demonstrative
`exhibits that is not presented timely will be considered waived. Each party

`
`also shall provide a hard copy of its demonstrative exhibits to the court
`reporter at the hearing.
`The parties are reminded that the presenter must identify clearly and
`specifically each demonstrative exhibit (e.g., by slide or screen number and
`by content) referenced during the consolidated hearing to ensure the clarity
`and accuracy of the reporter’s transcript. The parties also should note that
`one or more judges on the panel will be attending electronically and will
`only have access to the filed copy of the demonstratives provided in
`advance, as referenced above. If a demonstrative is not made available to
`the Board in the manner indicated above, that demonstrative may not be
`available to each of the judges during the hearing and may not be
`considered. Further, images projected using audio-visual equipment in the
`hearing room will not be visible to judges participating remotely. Because
`of limitations on the audio transmission systems in our hearing rooms, the
`presenter may speak only when standing at the hearing room podium. If the
`parties have questions as to whether demonstrative exhibits would be
`sufficiently visible and available to all of the judges, the parties are invited
`to contact the Board at (571) 272-9797.
`The Board will provide a court reporter for the hearing, and the
`reporter’s transcript will constitute the official record of the hearing. The
`reporter’s transcript will be entered in the record of the proceedings.
`The Board expects lead counsel for each party to be present in person
`at the oral hearing. However, any counsel of record may present the party’s
`argument as long as that counsel is present in person. If either party expects
`that its lead counsel will not be attending the oral argument, the parties

`
`should initiate a joint telephone conference with the Board no later than
`three (3) business days prior to the oral hearing to discuss the matter.
`A party may request remote video attendance for one or more of its
`other attendees to view the hearing from any USPTO location. The
`available locations include the Rocky Mountain Regional Office in Denver,
`Colorado; the Texas Regional Office in Dallas, Texas; the Elijah J. McCoy
`Midwest Regional Office in Detroit, Michigan; and the Silicon Valley Office
`in San Jose, California. To request remote video viewing, a party must send
`an email message to Trials@uspto.gov ten (10) business days prior to the
`hearing, indicating the requested location and the number planning to view
`the hearing from the remote location. The Board will notify the parties if the
`request for video viewing is granted. Note that it may not be possible to
`grant the request due to the availability of resources.
`Any special requests for audio-visual equipment should be directed to
`Trials@uspto.gov. A party may also indicate any special requests related to
`appearing at an in-person oral hearing, such as a request to accommodate
`physical needs that limit mobility or visual or hearing impairments, and
`indicate how the PTAB may accommodate the special request. Any special
`requests must be presented in a separate communication not less than five
`(5) days before the hearing.
