`
`PETITIONER’S OBJECTIONS TO PATENT OWNER’S EXHIBITS
`
`

`
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`U.S. Patent 9,793,299
`IPR2021-01028
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioner hereby submits the following
`
`objections to certain exhibits submitted by Patent Owner. Petitioner’s objections
`
`apply equally to Patent Owner’s reliance on these exhibits in any subsequently filed
`
`documents. Petitioner objects to the following exhibits.
`
`Exhibit 2009
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2009 as lacking authentication under FRE 901
`
`because sufficient evidence has not been provided to establish its authenticity, date,
`
`or public availability. Patent Owner has not submitted evidence to authenticate this
`
`exhibit or to otherwise establish that it is what Patent Owner claims it to be.
`
`
`
`Petitioner also objects to Exhibit 2009 as irrelevant, prejudicial, confusing,
`
`and/or a waste of time under FRE 401, 402, and 403, as there is no admissible
`
`evidence establishing
`
`its public availability. Additionally, Patent Owner’s
`
`Preliminary Response does not cite Ex. 2009 at all. At least the uncited portions are
`
`irrelevant, and even if some portions were deemed relevant, they are prejudicial,
`
`confusing, or a waste of time. FRE 401, 402, and 403.
`
`
`
`Petitioner also objects to Exhibit 2009 under FRE 801, 802, and 805 as
`
`containing hearsay and/or hearsay within hearsay. To the extent Patent Owner relies
`
`on the content of this exhibit for the truth of the matter asserted, Petitioner objects
`
`to such content as inadmissible hearsay and/or hearsay within hearsay that does not
`
`fall under any exceptions.

`
`U.S. Patent 9,793,299
`IPR2021-01028
`
`Exhibit 2010
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to paragraph 41 of Ex. 2010 as relying on unauthenticated
`
`and hearsay evidence (e.g., Exhibit 2009). Patent Owner also objects to this
`
`paragraph as irrelevant and more prejudicial than probative as being based on
`
`inadmissible evidence under FRE 401, 402, 403. And until Patent Owner provides
`
`the declarant for cross-examination, Exhibit 2010 is inadmissible hearsay. FRE 802.
