`

`·1· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Good
`
`·2· · · · afternoon.· This is Judge Arbis of the patent
`
`·3· · · · trial and appeal board.· I have with me on the
`
`·4· · · · line, Judge Smith and Judge Galligan.· This is
`
`·5· · · · a conference call in a series of eight cases,
`
`·6· · · · IPR2020-1267 through 1360.· Do we have counsel
`
`·7· · · · for petitioner on the line?
`
`·8· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· Yes, Your Honor.· This is
`
`·9· · · · Patrick Herman from Orrick, Herrington &
`
`10· · · · Sutcliffe, here on behalf of petitioner.· And
`
`11· · · · also on the line with me is Alyssa Caridis,
`
`12· · · · also from Orrick.
`
`13· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`14· · · · Thank you.· And counsel for patent owner?
`
`15· · · · · · ·MR. SPECHT:· Yes, Your Honor.· This is
`
`16· · · · Mike Specht.· I'm with Sterne Kessler, counsel
`
`17· · · · for patent owner.· And also with me is Richard
`
`18· · · · Bemben, who's also with Sterne Kessler, and
`
`19· · · · counsel for patent owner.· I believe there also
`
`20· · · · should be a court reporter on.· We arranged for
`
`21· · · · one.
`
`22· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Sure,
`
`23· · · · that's fine.· And, Counsel, if you can please
`
`24· · · · file a copy of the transcript as an exhibit in
`
`25· · · · all eight proceedings once it's available.
`
`

`

`·1· · · · · · ·MR. SPECHT:· We will do that.
`
`·2· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`·3· · · · I believe the call today was requested by
`
`·4· · · · petitioner to seek authorization to file a
`
`·5· · · · reply in these cases.· So, counsel for
`
`·6· · · · petitioner, would you like to explain the basis
`
`·7· · · · for your request?
`
`·8· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· Yes, Your Honor.· In all
`
`·9· · · · eight of the IPR proceedings, patent owner has
`
`10· · · · filed a preliminary response that dedicates a
`
`11· · · · substantial amount of space to Section 314,
`
`12· · · · discretionary denial issue, and petitioner
`
`13· · · · would like to file a short reply addressing an
`
`14· · · · aspect of the arguments that patent owner is
`
`15· · · · making.· In particular, though, it's relating
`
`16· · · · to the scheduled trial date in the co-pending
`
`17· · · · Western District of Texas litigation.· And it's
`
`18· · · · petitioner's view that good cause for a reply
`
`19· · · · that, because in the middle of November, the
`
`20· · · · federal circuit issues a decision that in
`
`21· · · · petitioner's view has bearing on the viability
`
`22· · · · of the currently scheduled trial date, and
`
`23· · · · whether trial will occur at all in the current
`
`24· · · · venue.· And that that decision did not become
`
`25· · · · available until this November.· It's not
`
`

`

`·1· · · · something that petitioner could have addressed
`
`·2· · · · in the petition when they were originally
`
`·3· · · · filed.· I'm happy to go more into what we'd
`
`·4· · · · like to say, but I just don't want to stray too
`
`·5· · · · far into the substance, unless Your Honors
`
`·6· · · · would like to hear that.
`
`·7· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Yes,
`
`·8· · · · actually, if you can give us a little bit more
`
`·9· · · · detail as to why you believe that decision
`
`10· · · · impacts the potential trial date or the
`
`11· · · · viability of having a trial in that venue.
`
`12· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· Sure.· So, with respect to
`
`13· · · · the viability of the trial date, it's
`
`14· · · · petitioner's view that the decision essentially
`
`15· · · · held that it was error for the district court
`
`16· · · · to consider its early scheduled trial date in
`
`17· · · · determining whether it was appropriate to
`
`18· · · · transfer to another jurisdiction.· And instead,
`
`19· · · · it should have been looking at the average time
`
`20· · · · to trial in that particular jurisdiction.
`
`21· · · · Particularly because that particular judge in
`
`22· · · · that particular jurisdiction does not have a
`
`23· · · · significant amount of experience in actually
`
`24· · · · making it to trial, so the more relevant
`
`25· · · · metric, according to the federal circuit, is
`
`

`

`·1· · · · not the date that was actually scheduled, since
`
`·2· · · · there's no historical data to back up that
`
`·3· · · · trial can actually occur that quickly, but
`
`·4· · · · instead, the relevant date to consider is the
`
`·5· · · · date that it's implied by the general
`
`·6· · · · statistics and time trial specifics in the
`
`·7· · · · jurisdiction.· So it's our view that the
`
`·8· · · · situation is analogist here that an early trial
`
`·9· · · · date has been scheduled, but there's no
`
`10· · · · indication whatsoever, based on the
`
`11· · · · jurisdiction's experience, that trial will
`
`12· · · · actually occur as of that early date.· So it's
`
`13· · · · our view that the federal circuit has now
`
`14· · · · weighed it with respect to whether this
`
`15· · · · throughly scheduled trial date was something
`
`16· · · · that's factually relevant, and something that's
`
`17· · · · factually relevant that should be considered
`
`18· · · · when assessing transfer, and at the same time,
`
`19· · · · whether it's something that's factually
`
`20· · · · relevant that should be considered when
`
`21· · · · assessing whether to institute IPR.· The second
`
`22· · · · point relates to transfer.· And it's my
`
`23· · · · understanding that the court here that was
`
`24· · · · waiting for this particular decision before
`
`25· · · · making its transfer decision in the co-pending
`
`

`

`·1· · · · district court litigation in this case, and the
`
`·2· · · · federal circuit essentially found that transfer
`
`·3· · · · was required and appropriate and the district
`
`·4· · · · court abused the discretion and not granted
`
`·5· · · · granting transfer.· And it's the petitioner's
`
`·6· · · · view that that meaningfully increases the odds
`
`·7· · · · and the chances that the petitioner here will
`
`·8· · · · be successful in getting his own transfer
`
`·9· · · · motion granted in front of the same judge and
`
`10· · · · in the same court with analogist facts.
`
`11· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`12· · · · A couple questions.· One, there is still a
`
`13· · · · trial date set in the district court case,
`
`14· · · · correct?
`
`15· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· I believe so, yes.
`
`16· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`17· · · · And there is a motion for transfer pending.· Is
`
`18· · · · there -- and I'll ask counsel for patent owner
`
`19· · · · the same question.· Is there any -- there
`
`20· · · · hasn't been a decision on that yet, I take it.
`
`21· · · · Is there any indication when that will be
`
`22· · · · decided?
`
`23· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· It's pending.· And I believe
`
`24· · · · that the court has indicated that there will be
`
`25· · · · a decision within a month of approximately
`
`

`

`·1· · · · today.
`
`·2· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`·3· · · · Great.· Counsel for patent owner, would you
`
`·4· · · · like to respond?
`
`·5· · · · · · ·MR. SPECHT:· Yes, sir.· Again, this is
`
`·6· · · · Mike Specht, counsel for Broadband iTV, the
`
`·7· · · · patent owner here.· As a threshold issue, you
`
`·8· · · · know, leave to file a reply is based on good
`
`·9· · · · cause showing, we don't think that's been
`
`10· · · · demonstrated here.· And as we note from the
`
`11· · · · trial practice guide, replies will only be
`
`12· · · · granted infrequently, and this is not one of
`
`13· · · · those instances when we believe a reply should
`
`14· · · · be permitted.· And our reasons for that are
`
`15· · · · several.· First of all, the decision that
`
`16· · · · petitioner refers to, and I'm not sure if he
`
`17· · · · mentioned the specific decision caption here on
`
`18· · · · this call, but in our meet and confer, my
`
`19· · · · understanding is that they're relying on in re
`
`20· · · · Apple, which is 5th Circuit Case 2020-135.
`
`21· · · · This was a mandamus writs, and it was decided
`
`22· · · · November 9th.· Our view is that that decision
`
`23· · · · has little or no bearing, quite frankly, on the
`
`24· · · · Fintiv factors there presented.· That decision
`
`25· · · · goes through and applies to circuit case law in
`
`

`

`·1· · · · terms of transfer requests, goes through the
`
`·2· · · · eight public and private factors, and reaches
`
`·3· · · · the conclusion in that particular situation
`
`·4· · · · that Judge Albright abused in discretion.· And
`
`·5· · · · that decision was -- there was a strong defense
`
`·6· · · · as well in that decision.· So that's point one.
`
`·7· · · · Point two is with respect to the arguments that
`
`·8· · · · counsel just made, he commented that there's
`
`·9· · · · error to consider the trial date and should
`
`10· · · · rather consider the average trial times, I
`
`11· · · · presume he was referring to in Texas.· First of
`
`12· · · · all, that's one of many factors that was
`
`13· · · · considered in the in re Apple decision.
`
`14· · · · Secondly, relying on an average trial date
`
`15· · · · would be a significant deviation from what the
`
`16· · · · board currently does.· The board has said time
`
`17· · · · and time again, we don't speculate on trial
`
`18· · · · dates.· And here we have a trial date that is
`
`19· · · · set, and that the judge, Judge Albright, has
`
`20· · · · confirmed many, many times he's going to go to
`
`21· · · · trial on that date.· So, with that impartment,
`
`22· · · · we don't think there is merit.· With respect to
`
`23· · · · what I understand the second argument to be,
`
`24· · · · the decision in in re Apple increases the
`
`25· · · · likelihood that transfer will occur here.
`
`

`

`·1· · · · Again, that's pure speculation.· The facts in
`
`·2· · · · the in re Apple case were very different from
`
`·3· · · · the facts here, and it really provides little
`
`·4· · · · or no guidance as to whether or not this case
`
`·5· · · · would be transferred.· You asked a question,
`
`·6· · · · Your Honor, in terms of when we might expect a
`
`·7· · · · decision on the transfer motion.· It is
`
`·8· · · · currently pending, as opposing counsel
`
`·9· · · · indicated, but, also, Judge Albright, in a
`
`10· · · · Markman hearing that was held, I believe it was
`
`11· · · · November 13th, confirmed that he would be
`
`12· · · · putting out a decision on the transfer motion
`
`13· · · · soon.· So it's certainly on his radar screen.
`
`14· · · · And to suggest that in re Apple's current
`
`15· · · · decision changes Judge Albright's perspective
`
`16· · · · on what he may do in terms of managing his own
`
`17· · · · docket, I think that's highly speculative.
`
`18· · · · And, in fact, post in re Apple, Judge Albright
`
`19· · · · issued new standing orders on how he would
`
`20· · · · address and allow further discovery on transfer
`
`21· · · · motions, presumably to address some of the
`
`22· · · · issues that came out of the in re Apple
`
`23· · · · decision.· And last point is with respect to
`
`24· · · · the overall Fintiv analysis, as you know, there
`
`25· · · · are five factors that are considered.· This
`
`

`

`·1· · · · relates only to one factor, factor two, the
`
`·2· · · · trial date factor.· And, as I've indicated, we
`
`·3· · · · think it's just pure speculation, and it's not
`
`·4· · · · particularly ripe.· If we're going to get a
`
`·5· · · · transfer motion at that point, or a decision on
`
`·6· · · · the transfer motion, at that point, we can
`
`·7· · · · update the board.· So I'll pause there, and if
`
`·8· · · · you have any questions, I'll answer those.
`
`·9· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Thank
`
`10· · · · you.· Counsel for petitioner, is that right
`
`11· · · · that the reply would only be directed to factor
`
`12· · · · two of the --
`
`13· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· So, yes, Your Honor. I
`
`14· · · · believe that our intent is essentially just to
`
`15· · · · challenge the presumption or the assumption
`
`16· · · · that trial will actually occur in the Western
`
`17· · · · District of Texas in November of 2021, as
`
`18· · · · opposed to at some other time or in some other
`
`19· · · · place.· And to the extent that only relates to
`
`20· · · · factor number two, I think that
`
`21· · · · characterization would be correct.
`
`22· · · · · · ·MR. SPECHT:· Your Honor, just to clarify,
`
`23· · · · this is Mike Specht, one thing I stated, I made
`
`24· · · · the comment, five factors.· I meant five
`
`25· · · · factors in addition to this factor.· So six
`
`

`

`·1· · · · total factors, as you know.· Five additional
`
`·2· · · · factors beyond factor two that are considered,
`
`·3· · · · just to clarify my comment.
`
`·4· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Yes.
`
`·5· · · · Thank you.· Counsel for petitioner, if we were
`
`·6· · · · to authorize a reply, how many pages would you
`
`·7· · · · request, and what time frame?
`
`·8· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· So five pages, Your Honor, I
`
`·9· · · · think would be sufficient.· And if, Your Honors
`
`10· · · · are willing, perhaps two weeks from today for
`
`11· · · · petitioner's reply brief.
`
`12· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`13· · · · And counsel for patent owner, the panel will
`
`14· · · · confer that if we were to authorize a reply,
`
`15· · · · would you want a sur-reply to respond to that?
`
`16· · · · · · ·MR. SPECHT:· Yes, Your Honor, we would
`
`17· · · · absolutely want a sur-reply.· And, to your
`
`18· · · · comment, to the extent that the board is
`
`19· · · · considering granting a reply, we think it
`
`20· · · · absolutely should be limited to Fintiv factor
`
`21· · · · two.· And frankly, the other point I wanted to
`
`22· · · · make is, in terms of making the board aware of
`
`23· · · · the in re Apple decision, this call has done
`
`24· · · · that, and I'm not sure that any further
`
`25· · · · briefing is needed.· The board certainly is
`
`

`

`·1· · · · familiar with case law and able to understand
`
`·2· · · · that decision without our briefing here.
`
`·3· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`·4· · · · And are there any other facts of what has
`
`·5· · · · occurred in the district court case since the
`
`·6· · · · party's briefing in these IPRs, is there any
`
`·7· · · · other facts that we should be aware of, Counsel
`
`·8· · · · for Petitioner?
`
`·9· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· Not that I'm aware of, Your
`
`10· · · · Honor.
`
`11· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`12· · · · Counsel for Patent Owner?
`
`13· · · · · · ·MR. SPECHT:· The only other factor, which
`
`14· · · · I mentioned to you, is that the court did hold
`
`15· · · · the Markman hearing on November 13th.· That was
`
`16· · · · in some of the POPRs, the ones that we filed
`
`17· · · · recently.· Four of them were filed before that
`
`18· · · · hearing.· So the court may be aware of it, but
`
`19· · · · I'm making aware of it just in case that
`
`20· · · · happened on November 13th.· And, you know,
`
`21· · · · yeah.· I'll leave it at that.
`
`22· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`23· · · · If all parties can stay on the line for just a
`
`24· · · · moment while the panel confers, and we'll be
`
`25· · · · back shortly.
`
`

`

`·1· · · · · · · · · ·-· -· -· - -
`
`·2· · · · · · (At this time, a short break was taken.)
`
`·3· · · · · · · · · ·-· -· -· - -
`
`·4· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Okay.
`
`·5· · · · This is Judge Arbis.· Are there still counsel
`
`·6· · · · for the parties on the line?
`
`·7· · · · · · ·MR. HERMAN:· Counsel for patent owner,
`
`·8· · · · yes.
`
`·9· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Thank
`
`10· · · · you.· The panel has conferred, we do believe
`
`11· · · · that there is good cause for a very short reply
`
`12· · · · and sur-reply on this issue.· Given the
`
`13· · · · circuit's decision and petitioner's arguments
`
`14· · · · regarding its potential impact on the analysis
`
`15· · · · here, so the reply will be limited to only
`
`16· · · · issued to of the Fintiv test, and because it is
`
`17· · · · a very discrete issue, we think that three
`
`18· · · · pages is necessary, and three pages is
`
`19· · · · warranted for that issue.· So petitioner will
`
`20· · · · have five business days to file a reply limited
`
`21· · · · to three pages on that issue.· The same reply
`
`22· · · · should be filed in all eight proceedings.
`
`23· · · · Patent owner will then have five business days
`
`24· · · · from that to file a sur-reply, also limited to
`
`25· · · · three pages.· If there are any further
`
`

`

`·1· · · · developments in the district court case that
`
`·2· · · · you believe we should be made aware of, please
`
`·3· · · · email the court and request another conference
`
`·4· · · · call.· Otherwise we will receive the parties'
`
`·5· · · · briefing and go from there.· Any other
`
`·6· · · · questions or issues from the parties?
`
`·7· · · · · · ·MR. SPECHT:· This is counsel for patent
`
`·8· · · · owner.· One question I had, as I indicated
`
`·9· · · · there, was the claim construction hearing on
`
`10· · · · November 13th, and there were final claim
`
`11· · · · constructions.· We submitted those in the four
`
`12· · · · IPRs that -- or four POPRs that we recently
`
`13· · · · filed, wanted to seek permission to file those
`
`14· · · · or add those to the record in the first four
`
`15· · · · POPRs.· Does that make sense?
`
`16· · · · · · ·ADMINISTRATIVE PATENT JUDGE ARBIS:· Yes.
`
`17· · · · The panel is aware of that.· Counsel for
`
`18· · · · Petitioner, would you have any objection to
`
`19· · · · patent owner just filing that document as an
`
