`
`
`
`Petitioners’ Objections to Patent Owner’s Evidence Submitted with Patent
`Owner’s Response to Petition for Inter Partes Review
`
`
`ACTIVE/100961691.1
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1) and the Federal Rules of Evidence
`
`(“FRE”), Petitioners Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories S.A. and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories,
`
`Inc. (collectively, “Petitioners”) submit the following objections to evidence served
`
`with Patent Owner’s Response to the Petition for Inter Partes Review of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 9,687,454.
`
`Ex. 2006—Petitioners object to Exhibit 2006 under FRE 401, FRE 402, and
`
`37 CFR § 42.61, as the Exhibit does not have any tendency to make a
`
`consequential fact in this action more or less probable than it would be without the
`
`evidence. Petitioners further object to this Exhibit under FRE 403 because any
`
`probative value is substantially outweighed by the risk of unfair prejudice,
`
`confusing the issues, wasting time, or needlessly presenting cumulative evidence.
`
`Ex. 2007—Petitioners object to Exhibit 2007 under FRE 401, FRE 402, and
`
`37 CFR § 42.61, as the Exhibit does not have any tendency to make a
`
`consequential fact in this action more or less probable than it would be without the
`
`evidence. Petitioners further object to this Exhibit under FRE 403 because any
`
`probative value is substantially outweighed by the risk of unfair prejudice,
`
`confusing the issues, wasting time, or needlessly presenting cumulative evidence.
`
`Ex. 2008—Petitioners object to Exhibit 2008 under FRE 702. Opinions
`
`expressed in Ex. 2008 are not reliably based on scientific, technical, or other
`
`specialized knowledge, sufficient facts or data, reliable principles and methods, or
`
`
`ACTIVE/100961691.1
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`the reliable application of principles and methods. This exhibit also includes
`
`statements that are not relevant to the issues in this case and therefore have little
`
`probative value, which is substantially outweighed by dangers such as confusing
`
`the issues and wasting time, under FRE 402 and FRE 403. Argument and analysis
`
`in this exhibit are improperly incorporated by reference into the Patent Owner
`
`Response (Paper 33) in contravention of 37 C.F.R. §§ 43.6(a)(3) and 42.24(b)(2).
`
`Ex. 2009—Petitioners object to Exhibit 2009 under FRE 802. Petitioners
`
`also object to Exhibit 2009 under FRE 1001-1003. This Exhibit also includes
`
`statements that are not relevant to the issues in this case and therefore have little
`
`probative value, which is substantially outweighed by dangers such as confusing
`
`the issues and wasting time, under FRE 402 and FRE 403. Petitioners maintain
`
`their objections as stated by counsel on the record during the deposition.
