`U.S. Patent No. 6,836,766
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70, the Board’s December 22, 2021 Scheduling
`
`Order (Paper 12), Patent Owner Versata Development Group, Inc. (“Patent
`
`Owner”) respectfully requests oral argument, which is currently scheduled for
`
`September 20, 2022. Patent Owner believes that a total of 45 minutes is an
`
`appropriate argument time for each side at the oral hearing to address the issues in
`
`this case.
`
`Patent Owner specifies the following issues to be argued:
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 1, 9, 10, 14, and 19 of U.S. Patent No.
`
`6,836,766 (“the ’766 patent”) as obvious over Oracle1 and Oracle2;
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 15 and 16 of the ’766 patent as obvious
`
`over Oracle1, Oracle2, and SalesPlus;
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 11-13 and 17 of the ’766 patent as
`
`obvious over Oracle1, Oracle2, SalesPlus, and Yu;
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 2 and 18 of the ’766 patent as obvious
`
`over Oracle1, Oracle2, and Memon;
`
`• The unpatentability of claims 3-5 of the ’766 patent as obvious over
`
`Oracle1, Oracle2, Memon, and SalesPlus;
`
`• Any issues identified in Petitioner’s Request for Oral Argument;
`
`
`
`- 1 -
`
`
`
`IPR2021-01055
`U.S. Patent No. 6,836,766
`• Any other issues raised in papers filed in this proceeding, including
`
`issues raised in papers yet to be filed, such as any Motions to Exclude
`
`and Oppositions to Motions to Exclude; and
`
`• Any other outstanding motions and pleadings, and other issues that
`
`the Board deems necessary for issuing a Final Written Decision.
`
`Patent Owner recognizes that circumstances may require a telephonic
`
`hearing in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, subject to the Board’s guidance. If the
`
`hearing is conducted in-person, Petitioner requests the ability to use audio-visual
`
`equipment to display possible demonstratives and exhibits, including the use of an
`
`ELMO, computer, projector, and screen.
