`
`Case IPR2021-00880
`Patent No. 9,669,069 B2
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c) Patent Owner Regeneron Pharmaceuticals,
`
`Inc. (“Patent Owner”) hereby files this motion for Ms. Victoria Reines to appear
`
`pro hac vice on its behalf before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board in this
`
`proceeding. As required by the Board’s Notice of Filing Date Accorded to Petition
`
`(Paper 3) this motion for pro hac vice admission under 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c) is
`
`being “filed in accordance with the ‘Order -- Authorizing Motion for Pro Hac Vice
`
`Admission’ in Case IPR2013-00639” (“IPR2013-00639 Order”). (Paper 3 at 2.).
`
`Patent Owner conferred with Petitioner Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Petitioner”)
`
`and Petitioner does not oppose the Motion for Admission pro hac vice.
`
`I.
`
`STATEMENT OF FACTS
`
`The following facts, along with the attached Declaration of Victoria
`
`Reines (Reines Decl.) support admission of Ms. Reines pro hac vice in this
`
`proceeding.
`
`1.
`
`Lead Counsel Deborah E. Fishman (Reg. No. 48,621) and Back-up
`
`Counsel Alice S. Ho (Lim. Rec. No. L1162) are the counsel of record for Patent
`
`Owner. Ms. Fishman and Ms. Ho are experienced patent attorneys and have
`
`worked closely with Ms. Reines since they became involved in these
`
`proceedings, and will continue to do so.
`
`2.
`
`Ms. Reines has significant familiarity with the subject matter in this
`
`proceeding and has substantive knowledge of the patent-at-issue (Patent No.
`
`2
`
`
`
`Case IPR2021-00880
`Patent No. 9,669,069 B2
`
`9,669,069 B2 (the “’069 Patent”)) by virtue of her preparation for this
`
`proceeding. (Reines Decl. ¶ 10). Ms. Reines has conducted a detailed review of
`
`the ‘069 Patent, the relevant prior art, and the prosecution history and related
`
`patents. In fact, a significant amount of Ms. Reines’ time since March 2020 has
`
`been spent working on issues related to the ’069 Patent and Patent Owner’s
`
`commercial product, Eylea®. Ms. Reines was substantively involved in the
`
`preparation of the Patent Owner Preliminary Response. Therefore, Ms. Reines
`
`has significant experience with the subject matter of this proceeding.
`
`II. REASONS FOR GRANTING THE MOTION
`
`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 and to any other conditions as the Board may impose.” 37 C.F.R. §
`
`42.10(c). As set forth above, lead counsel in this proceeding, Deborah E. Fishman,
`
`is a registered practitioner. Moreover, as set forth above and in the accompanying
`
`Reines declaration, Ms. Reines is a patent litigation attorney and has an established
`
`familiarity with the subject matter at issue in the proceeding. (Reines Decl. ¶¶ 2,
`
`10).

`
`Board’s requirements, Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board admit Ms.
`
`Victoria Reines pro hac vice, in this proceeding.
