`Presentation at 3GPP Meeting – Case Law
`
`Most recently, in Medtronic we considered whether distribution
`of a video and slides at several scientific meetings on spinal
`surgery were prior art printed publications. Medtronic, 891
`F.3d at 1379. … The Board had held that the video and slides
`were not prior art, but neither distinguished the limited from
`the open meetings, nor addressed whether the video and slides
`were distributed with a reasonable expectation that they would
`remain confidential. Id. at 1382. As "the size and nature of the
`meetings[,] . . . whether they are open to people interested in
`the subject matter[,]" and "whether there is an expectation of
`confidentiality between the distributor and the recipients of the
`materials" are important factors in assessing public
`accessibility, we vacated the Board's finding that the video and
`slides were not prior art and remanded for further
`considerations.
`Jazz Pharms., 895 F.3d 1347, 1357 (Fed. Cir. Jul. 13,
`2018) [Paper 17 (Patent Owner’s Sur-Reply), p. 8]
`
`Whether the disseminated material is addressed to or of interest
`to persons of ordinary skill is also relevant to the public
`accessibility inquiry. See, e.g., Klopfenstein, 380 F.3d at 1351
`(considering whether the reference "goes [**22] direct to those
`whose interests make them likely to observe and remember
`whatever it may contain that is new and useful") (internal
`quotation marks omitted)).
`Jazz Pharms., 895 F.3d 1358 [Paper 17 (Patent Owner’s
`Sur-Reply), p. 8]
`"[T]he longer a reference is displayed, the more likely it is to
`be considered a 'printed publication.'" Klopfenstein, 380 F.3d
`at 1351. In Klopfenstein, three days of slide presentations
`between two scientific meetings were enough. Id. at 1351-52.
`Jazz Pharms., 895 F.3d 1358 [Paper 17 (Patent
`Owner’s Sur-Reply), p. 8]
`Third, the ACA materials were distributed via public domain
`sources with no possible expectation that the materials would
`remain confidential or not be copied. We have consistently
`emphasized the importance of such expectations in determining
`whether a reference is publicly accessible. See Medtronic, 891
`F.3d at 1382; Cordis, 561 F.3d at 1333-34; Klopfenstein, 380
`F.3d at 1351; MIT, 774 F.2d at 1108-09. There can be no dispute
`that materials disclosed in the Federal Register and available
`online on a public FDA website have no expectation of
`confidentiality.

`Presentation at 3GPP Meeting – Case Law
`
`This is not the first time we have considered whether materials
`disclosed in association with meetings or conferences were
`"printed
`publications."
`In Massachusetts
`Institute
`of
`Technology v. AB Fortia ("MIT"), the reference at issue was a
`paper orally presented at a scientific [**18]
`conference
`attended by between 50 and 500 cell culturists. 774 F.2d 1104,
`1108 (Fed. Cir. 1985). A copy of the paper was given to the
`head of the conference and to no more than six other persons,
`without restrictions, who requested the paper. Id. at 1108-09.
`We held that the paper was prior art because "between 50 and
`500 persons interested and of ordinary skill in the subject
`matter were actually told of the existence of the paper and
`informed of its contents by the oral presentation, and the
`document itself was actually disseminated without restriction
`to at least six persons." Id. at 1109.
`
`Jazz Pharms., 895 F.3d 1356 [Paper 17 (Patent
`Owner’s Sur-Reply), p. 8]
`
`Similarly, in Klopfenstein, several researchers presented
`slides at two scientific meetings for a total of approximately
`three days. 380 F.3d at 1347, 1350. At the
`meetings [*1357] "[t]he reference was shown to a wide
`variety of viewers, a large subsection of whom possessed
`ordinary skill in the art." Id. at 1350. As in MIT, the slides
`were presented "with no stated expectation that the
`information would not be copied or reproduced by those
`viewing it." Id. After considering multiple factors, including
`the length of the display, the expertise of the intended
`audience, whether the presenters had a reasonable
`expectation that the materials would not be copied, and the
`ease or simplicity of copying [**19] the materials, we held
`that the slide presentation was sufficiently publicly accessible
`to count as a printed publication. Id. at 1350-52. We so held
`even though the slides were never distributed to the public
`and never indexed. Id. at 1350.
`Jazz Pharms., 895 F.3d 1356-57 [Paper 17 (Patent
`Owner’s Sur-Reply), p. 8]

`

`Presentation at 3GPP Meeting – Case Law
`
`Comparing the facts of this case to those in MIT,
`Klopfenstein, and Medtronic confirms that the ACA
`materials were disseminated more broadly and for a
`longer duration to persons of ordinary skill than the
`materials disclosed at individual meetings in
`those [**21] cases. In addition, unlike in Cordis,
`disclosure through public domain sources such as the
`Federal Register and a public federal agency website
`plainly indicates that there was no reasonable
`expectation that the ACA materials would remain
`confidential. As we explain below, each of these factors
`supports the Board's finding that the ACA materials were
`publicly accessible printed publications.
`Jazz Pharms., 895 F.3d 1357 [Paper 17 (Patent
`Owner’s Sur-Reply), p. 8]
`
`Second, the ACA materials were available online for a
`substantial time before the critical date of the patents in
`suit. "[T]he longer a reference is displayed, the more
`likely it is to be considered a 'printed publication.'"
`Klopfenstein, 380 F.3d at 1351. In Klopfenstein, three
`days of slide presentations between two scientific
`meetings were enough. Id. at 1351-52. Here, the ACA
`materials were available on a public FDA website for at
`least two months before the critical date of the patents
`in suit. As with the breadth of dissemination, the length
`of time the ACA materials were available supports the
`Board's public accessibility finding.

`Owner’s Sur-Reply), p. 8]

`
`Third, the ACA materials were distributed via
`public domain sources with no possible
`expectation that the materials would remain
`confidential or not be copied. We have
`consistently emphasized the importance of such
`expectations in determining whether a
`reference is publicly accessible. See Medtronic,
`891 F.3d at 1382; Cordis, 561 F.3d at 1333-34;
`Klopfenstein, 380 F.3d at 1351; MIT, 774 F.2d
`at 1108-09. There can be no dispute that
`materials disclosed in the Federal Register and
`available online on a public FDA website have
`no expectation of confidentiality.
`
`Jazz Pharms., 895 F.3d 1358 [Paper 17 (Patent
`Owner’s Sur-Reply), p. 8]
`
`We have consistently held that indexing or searchability is
`unnecessary for a reference to be a printed publication under §
`102(b). Medtronic, 891 F.3d at 1381 ("We have stated that a
`printed publication 'need not be easily searchable after
`publication [**25] if it was sufficiently disseminated at the
`time of its publication.'" (quoting Suffolk, 752 F.3d at 1365));
`Klopfenstein, 380 F.3d at 1350 ("[D]istribution and indexing
`are not the only factors to be considered in a § 102(b) 'printed
`publication' inquiry."); accord MIT, 774 F.2d at 1108-09
`(holding paper distributed at conference publicly accessible
`without considering indexing). … Moreover, even assuming
`that indexing is relevant to this case, the Federal Register was
`meaningfully indexed. The Notice was published on May 14,
`2001, in issue 93 of the 66th annual volume of the Federal
`Register. 66 Fed. Reg., No. 93 (May 14, 2001). Consistent with
`its governing regulation, 1 C.F.R. § 6.1 ("Each daily issue of
`the Federal Register shall be appropriately indexed."), issue 93
`included a five-page table of contents organized alphabetically
`by agency; each agency's rules, proposed rules, and notices are
`then listed in that order. Table of Contents, 66 Fed. Reg., No.
`93, at III (May 14, 2001). FDA notices appear on the third
`page, with three entries in total. Id. at V.
