`PETITIONER’S REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2021-00471
`Attorney Docket: 50095-0029IP1
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a), Petitioner Apple Inc. requests oral
`
`
`
`argument on all of the instituted grounds of unpatentability in this proceeding
`
`regarding the Challenged Claims of U.S. Patent No. 10,259,021.
`
`The Board scheduled an oral argument for May 19, 2022 in this proceeding
`
`(IPR2021-00471), the same day as three related IPR proceedings involving the
`
`same parties (IPR2021-0470, IPR2021-0472, and IPR2021-0473). See Paper 11.
`
`Petitioner requests that the argument for this proceeding be consolidated with the
`
`arguments for IPR2021-0472 and IPR2021-0473 in a single hearing beginning no
`
`later than 10:00 AM Eastern Time. Petitioner further requests that the argument in
`
`IPR2021-0470 proceed immediately or shortly thereafter as a separate hearing.
`
`The three proceedings with which Petitioner proposes a consolidated hearing
`
`(i.e., IPR2021-0471, IPR2021-0472, and IPR2021-0473) involve related patents
`
`and have overlapping claim limitations, prior art grounds, and exhibits. A
`
`consolidated hearing would minimize repetitive argument and lead to an efficient
`
`presentation of the evidence. As for IPR2021-0470, while it involves a related
`
`patent, the claim limitations and prior art diverge to some degree from the other
`
`proceedings. Addressing IPR2021-0470 separately will avoid confusion of the
`
`issues.
`
`Petitioner requests at least one hour per side of argument time for the
`
`consolidated hearing.

`Attorney Docket: 50095-0029IP1
`
`If the oral argument is not held via videoconference, Petitioner also
`
`
`
`respectfully requests the ability to use audio-visual equipment to display
`
`demonstrative exhibits, including the use of a projector and screen that connects to
`
`a laptop computer. Petitioner’s counsel will use a laptop computer with a HDMI-
`
`type connector. In addition, Petitioner requests that an ELMO-type projector be
`
`made available for use.
