`PETITIONER’S OBJECTIONS TO PATENT OWNER’S EVIDENCE
`PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1)
`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64, Petitioner Applied Materials, Inc.
`
`(“Petitioner”) asserts the following objections to evidence served with Patent
`
`Owner’s Sur-Reply (Paper 38) submitted on September 9, 2022 by Ocean
`
`Semiconductor LLC (“Ocean” or “Patent Owner”), within five (5) business days as
`
`provided in 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1). The Federal Rules of Evidence apply to these
`
`proceedings under 37 C.F.R. § 42.62(a), which form the bases for these objections.
`
`See CTPG at 8.
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2044, the uncertified rough draft of the
`
`deposition of Dr. Stanley Shanfield,1 on the grounds that it contains transcription
`
`errors and is misleading, incomplete, and prejudicial under Fed. R. Evid. 403, as
`
`well as lacking authentication under Fed. R. Evid. 901, and exceeds the scope
`
`permitted by 37 C.F.R. § 42.23(b). See also Cal. Code Civ. Proc. § 2025.540(b)
`
`(“When prepared as a rough draft transcript, the transcript of the deposition may
`
`not be certified and may not be used, cited, or transcribed as the certified transcript
`
`of the deposition proceedings”). Ocean completed the deposition on the agreed
`
`date of August 29, 2022, which allowed sufficient time to order and receive the
`
`
`1 The notation in the uncertified rough draft that counsel agreed to waive
`
`certification, see Ex. 2044 at 4:4-8, is incorrect, and the court reporter has been
`
`notified of the error.
`

`
`

`

`final certified transcript to be attached as an exhibit to the sur-reply.2 Accordingly,
`
`Petitioner further objects to any untimely supplementation or substitution of
`
`Exhibit 2044 by Ocean after the sur-reply deadline of September 9, 2022.

`
`
`Dated: September 13, 2022
