`
`
`BEFORE THE PATENT TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD
`
`
`MYLAN INSTITUTIONAL LLC,
`Petitioner
`v.
`NOVO NORDISK A/S,
`Patent Owner
`
`
`Case No. IPR2020-00324
`U.S. Patent No. 8,114,833
`
`
`PETITIONER’S OBJECTIONS TO PATENT OWNER’S EXHIBITS
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioner Mylan Institutional LLC
`
`(“Petitioner”) objects to the admissibility of the following exhibits filed by Patent
`
`Owner Novo Nordisk A/S (“Patent Owner”) with the Patent Owner Preliminary
`
`Response in the above-captioned inter partes review.
`
`Petitioner’s objections are timely under 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1) because
`
`they are being filed and served within ten (10) business days of the Institution
`
`Decision issued by the Board on June 23, 2020, Paper No. 12. Petitioner’s
`
`objections provide notice to Patent Owner that Petitioner may move to exclude
`
`these exhibits under 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(c).
`
`In this paper, a reference to “FRE” means the Federal Rules of Evidence, a
`
`reference to “CFR” means the Code of Federal Regulations, and “’833 patent”
`
`means U.S. Patent No. 8,114,833. All objections under FRE 801-803 (hearsay)
`
`apply to the extent that Patent Owner relies on the exhibit identified in connection
`
`with that objection for the truth of the matter asserted therein.
`
`Exhibit descriptions provided in this table are from Patent Owner’s exhibit
`
`list and are used for identification purposes only. The use of an exhibit description
`
`does not indicate that Petitioner agrees with that description or characterization of
`
`the document.
`
`Petitioner objects to paragraphs in the Patent Owner Preliminary Response that
`
`rely on exhibits objected to in this Petitioner’s Objection to Evidence.
