`
`
`PETITIONER’S OBJECTIONS TO EVIDENCE
`
`
`
`Proceeding No.: IPR2018-01249
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0054IP1
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 CFR § 42.64(b), Petitioner, Apple Inc., hereby submits its
`
`notice of objections to certain evidence that Patent Owner, Qualcomm, Inc.
`
`submitted in connection with IPR2018-01249.
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2004 (Declaration of Donald Alpert, Ph.D in
`
`IPR2015-00148). Exhibit 2004 is a declaration Dr. Alpert submitted on behalf of a
`
`different party (not Apple), in a different Inter Partes Review, and in reference to a
`
`different patent. See Exhibit 2004 at ¶1. Furthermore, in IPR2015-00148 both
`
`experts agreed that the patent in question (the ’122 patent) was describing a
`
`periodic clock. The only point at issue in the construction of the term was whether
`
`“clock,” in regard to the ’122 patent, was limited to a “digital system.” See Exhibit
`
`2004 at ¶¶6-16.
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2004 as Dr. Alpert’s declaration in regard to
`
`IPR2015-00148 is irrelevant to the determination of the broadest reasonable
`
`interpretation of the term “clock signal” as it is used in the ’002 patent, an analysis
`
`that must be based first and foremost on the claims and specification of the ’002
`
`patent (FRE 401/402/403). Furthermore, in Dr. Alpert’s declaration in regard to
`
`the ’122 patent at issue in IPR2015-00148, he does not offer any expert opinion
`
`that could reliably be extended to the ’002 patent because his opinion was specific
`
`to the ’122 patent, and consequently, he did not, in Exhibit 2004, lay out any
`
`1
`
`
`
`Proceeding No.: IPR2018-01249
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0054IP1
`analysis that could support an expert opinion on the meaning of a term in the ’002
`
`Patent (FRE 702). Finally, Patent Owner is relying on statements in Exhibit 2004
`
`that constitute inadmissible hearsay (FRE 801/802).
`
`Patent Owner reserves the right to move to exclude the noted testimony and
`
`exhibits.
