`
`
`In IPR2018-01675, Papers 2–4 each indicate that it is the “Petition.”
`In IPR2018-01680, Papers 2 and 3 each indicate that it is the “Petition.” A
`teleconference was held between counsel for the parties and Administrative
`Patent Judges Jung, Gerstenblith, and Mayberry to discuss several issues in
`these and related cases. A transcript of the teleconference was prepared and
`will be filed as an exhibit in each proceeding.2 During the teleconference,
`Petitioner confirmed the following: (1) in IPR2018-01675, Papers 3 and 4
`are duplicates of Paper 2; and (2) in IPR2018-01680, Paper 3 is a duplicate
`of Paper 2. To maintain an accurate record, we asked each party’s counsel if
`there was any objection to our expunging the duplicate papers in each case.
`Counsel for each party indicated that there was no objection.
`Accordingly, it is:
`ORDERED that Papers 3 and 4 in IPR2018-01675 are hereby
`expunged; and
`FURTHER ORDERED that Paper 3 in IPR2018-01680 is hereby
`expunged.
`
`
`
`
