`Case IPR2019-01525
`U.S. Patent No. 6,239,614
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70 and the Board’s March 13, 2020 Scheduling
`
`Order (Paper 13), Petitioner Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (“Petitioner”)
`
`respectfully requests oral argument, which is currently scheduled for December 11,
`
`2020. Petitioner believes that 45 minutes is an appropriate argument time for each
`
`side at the oral hearing in this case.
`
`Petitioner specifies the following issues to be argued:
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 1-3 of U.S. Patent No. 6,239,614 (“the
`
`’614 patent”) as obvious over Urano and Mutoh021;
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 1-3 of the ’614 patent as obvious over
`
`Mutoh and Mutoh021;
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 4-5 of the ’614 patent as obvious over
`
`Douseki and Ramus;
`
`• Any issues identified in Patent Owner’s Request for Oral Argument;
`
`• Rebuttal to Patent Owner’s presentation on all matters;
`
`• Any other issues raised in papers filed in this proceeding, including
`
`issues raised in papers yet to be filed, such as any Motions to Exclude
`
`and Oppositions to Motions to Exclude; and
`
`• Any other outstanding motions and pleadings, and other issues that
`
`the Board deems necessary for issuing a Final Written Decision.
