`
`IPR2021-00880 (Patent 9,669,069 B2)
`IPR2021-00881 (Patent 9,254,338 B2)
`
`
`
`Celltrion Inc. (“Petitioner”) filed motions for admission pro hac vice
`
`of Robert Cerwinski, Brigid Morris, and Aviv Zalcenstein in the proceedings
`
`listed above. Papers 62, 63, and 65 (collectively, the “Motions”).4
`
`Petitioner also filed supporting declarations from Mr. Cerwinski, Ms.
`
`Morris, and Mr. Zalcenstein. Ex. 1132–1134. Petitioner states that the
`
`Motions are unopposed. See Paper 62, 1.
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), the Board may recognize counsel
`
`pro hac vice during a proceeding upon a showing of good cause, subject to
`
`the condition that lead counsel be a registered practitioner. In authorizing
`
`motions for admission pro hac vice, the Board requires a statement of facts
`
`showing there is good cause for the Board to recognize counsel pro hac vice,
`
`and an affidavit or declaration of the individual seeking to appear in these
`
`proceedings. See Paper 3, 2 (citing Unified Patents, Inc. v. Parallel Iron,
`
`LLC, IPR2013-00639 (PTAB Oct. 15, 2013) (Paper 7) (representative
`
`“Order – Authorizing Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission”)).
`
`Upon review of the motions and declarations submitted, we determine
`
`that the requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 42.10 have been satisfied, and that there
`
`is good cause to admit Mr. Cerwinski, Ms. Morris, and Mr. Zalcenstein pro
`
`hac vice for the above-noted proceedings.
`
`
`
`

`understanding that IPR2021-00881 includes papers having substantially
`the same substantive content, unless otherwise noted.
