`PATENT OWNER’S EVIDENTIARY OBJECTIONS

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R § 42.64(b)(1), Patent Owner Aquila Innovations Inc.
`
`(“Aquila”) objects to the admissibility of evidence served by Petitioner Advanced
`
`Micro Devices, Inc. (“AMD”) in connection with its petition filed on September
`
`13, 2019.
`
`Aquila objects, under FRE 402/403, to all references that do not form the
`
`basis of the instituted review.
`
`Aquila additionally objects that Exhibit 1003 (Declaration of David
`
`Albonesi) provides opinions that are irrelevant under FRE 402, or that their
`
`probative value is substantially outweighed by other consideration under FRE 403,
`
`including unfair prejudice, confusion of the issue and waste of time. Patent Owner
`
`further objects that Exhibit 1003 is hearsay not subject to any exceptions under
`
`FRE 802. Aquila objects to paragraphs 36 – 49 of Exhibit 1003 under FRE 402 and
`
`403 because they provide opinions related to purported references that do not form
`
`the basis for any instituted ground. Aquila further objects to paragraph 36 under
`
`FRE 602 because Dr. Albonesi lacks personal knowledge of the alleged creation of
`
`ACPI. Aquila objects to paragraph 41 as hearsay not subject to any exception
`
`under FRE 802 and for lack of personal knowledge under FRE 602. Aquila objects
`
`to paragraph 44 under FRE 702. Aquila objects to paragraph 43 as hearsay not
`
`subject to any exception under FRE 802 and for lack of personal knowledge under
`
`FRE 602. Aquila objects to paragraph 47 for lack of personal knowledge regarding
`
`-2-
`
`
`
`alleged Texas Instruments products under FRE 602. Aquila objects to paragraph 72
`
`under FRE 602 for lack of personal knowledge concerning the purported
`
`popularity of Microsoft Windows, and as hearsay not subject to any exception
`
`under FRE 802. Aquila objects to paragraph 170 under FRE 602 for lack of
`
`personal knowledge of the purported adoption of ACPI in the industry. Aquila
`
`objects to paragraph 199 as hearsay not subject to any exception.
`
`Aquila objects to Exhibit 1005 as lacking authentication under FRE 901.
`
`Aquila objects to Exhibit 1005 under FRE 802 because it is inadmissible hearsay
`
`not subject to any exceptions.
`
`Aquila objects to Exhibit 1010 under FRE 402 and 403 because it is a
`
`purported reference that does not form the basis of any instituted ground.
`
`Aquila objects to Exhibit 1011 under FRE 402 and 403 because it is a
`
`purported reference that does not form the basis of any instituted ground.
`
`Aquila objects to Exhibit 1013 under FRE 402 and 403. Aquila’s
`
`preliminary infringement contentions are not evidence and not relevant to any issue
`
`material to patentability in this proceeding. Even if relevant, Exhibit 1013’s
`
`probative value is outweighed by countervailing considerations, such as unfair
`
`prejudice, confusion of the issues, cumulativeness, undue delay, misleading the
`
`Board, and wasting time.

`-3-
`
`
`
`Aquila objects to Exhibit 1014 under FRE 402 and 403 because it is a

`
`objects to Exhibit 1015 under FRE 802 because it is inadmissible hearsay not
`
`subject to any exceptions.

`
`purported reference that does not form the basis of any instituted ground. Aquila
`
`objects to Exhibit 1016 under FRE 802 because it is inadmissible hearsay not
`
`subject to any exceptions.
