`
`

`

`Introduction: Key Issues
`
`• Obviousness only: novelty is undisputed
`• Petitioner tenders no less than 11 combinations of 5 references
`• No reference shows metal foil output conductors resting flat
`• They do show true teaching away
`− Criticizing, discrediting and discouraging the proposed combination – need direct connection
`to terminal without conductor or insulator
`• And no motivation to combine because of basic incompatibility
`− Kaun teaches short axial high amperage current paths with direct connection of electrode to
`housing - no current collectors, no insulator between winding and housing
`− Kobayashi teaches integrating spiral micro-amperage electrode into conductor and insulator
`plates

`
`

`

`Introduction: Undisputed Items
`
`• Reliance on “knowledge of POSA” to fill critical gaps
`• Hindsight to reconstruct the claimed inventions
`• Unrebutted Secondary Considerations
`• Commercial success of patented CoinPower® cells
`• Creation of new consumer devices
`• Industry Praise
`• Copying - Petitioner is a latecomer
`• Motions to Amend - Petitioner did not explain why substitute dependent claims
`are unpatentable

`Introduction: Burden of Proof
`
`“In an inter partes review, the burden of persuasion is
`on the petitioner to prove ‘unpatentability by a
`preponderance of the evidence,’ 35 U.S.C. § 316(e),
`and that burden never shifts to the patentee.”
