`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), the Petitioner, Apple Inc. (“Apple”),
`
`respectfully requests that the Board recognize Noah Graubart as counsel pro hac
`
`vice in this proceeding. Apple seeks the counsel of Noah Graubart due to his
`
`experience in representing Apple in other patent-related matters and particularly
`
`due to his familiarity with the substantive and technical issues involved in this
`
`proceeding. This motion is authorized by the Notice of Filing Date Accorded to
`
`Petition and Time for Filing Patent Owner Preliminary Response that was mailed
`
`on June 15, 2021.
`
`I.
`Statement of Facts
`Mr. Graubart is a patent litigation attorney with over 16 years of
`
`experience representing clients in cases involving smartphone software, audio
`
`and video processing, telecommunications solutions, wireless networking,
`
`optical networking, computer hardware interfaces, and semiconductor
`
`fabrication methods. Mr. Graubart regularly litigates patent cases before the
`
`U.S. District Courts across the country, at the U.S. International Trade
`
`Commission, as well as arguing or briefing cases in the U.S. Courts of Appeals,
`
`including at the Federal Circuit. Through his practice in such cases, Mr.
`
`Graubart has gained substantial experience in all aspects of patent infringement
`
`litigation and other areas of intellectual property. Mr. Graubart began his legal
`
`career as a clerk for the Honorable Jerry E. Smith of the United States Court of
`
`1
`
`
`
`Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Mr. Graubart’s biography is attached as Appendix
`
`A of Exhibit 1059.
`
` Mr. Graubart also has particular experience and familiarity with the
`
`substantive and technical issues involved in this inter partes review proceeding.
`
`Apple has developed a particular relationship with Mr. Graubart such that Apple
`
`desires to continue the relationship with Mr. Graubart for the purpose of this
`
`proceeding.
`
`II.
`Affidavit of Individual Seeking to Appear
`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission is accompanied by an Affidavit
`
`of Noah Graubart. Accordingly, Apple submits that there is good cause under 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.10(c) for the Board to recognize Noah Graubart as counsel pro hac
`
`vice during this proceeding.
