`
`
`
`XR COMMUNICATIONS, LLC’S MOTION FOR PRO HAC VICE ADMISSION
`OF CHRISTIAN CONKLE
`
`
`
`
`Patent Owner, XR Communications, LLC, hereby requests that the Board
`
`recognize Christian Conkle as counsel pro hac vice for this proceeding under 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.10(c).
`
`I.
`
`Statement of Facts
`
`As required by § 42.10(c), the following statement of facts demonstrates that
`
`there is good cause for the Board to recognize Mr. Christian Conkle pro hac vice.
`
`Mr. Conkle is an experienced patent litigation attorney. Mr. Conkle (CA SBN
`
`306374) has practiced patent litigation since 2016. He has experience litigating
`
`numerous patent litigation matters before U.S. district courts and the U.S.
`
`International Trade Commission (“ITC”), including several jury trials. U.S. Patent
`
`10,715,235 and other patents are currently asserted by Patent Owner in pending
`
`district court litigation. Mr. Conkle is among the principal attorneys responsible for
`
`the representation of Patent Owner in those co-pending litigations. Through his role
`
`as attorney in the co-pending litigations, he has an established familiarity with the
`
`subject matter at issue in this IPR proceeding. He is heavily involved with issues
`
`such as claim construction and invalidity present in those litigations, many of which
`
`overlap with the issues presented in this IPR proceeding. Patent Owner has expended
`
`significant resources in the co-pending litigation with Mr. Conkle as counsel, and it
`
`wishes to continue using him as counsel in this IPR proceeding.
`
`
`
`Patent Owner has executed a Power of Attorney authorizing Mr. Conkle to
`
`Case IPR2022-00367
`Patent No. 10,715,235
`
`
`
`serve as backup counsel in this IPR proceeding, which is being filed concurrently.
`
`Petitioner Google indicated that it does not oppose this motion.
`
`II. Declaration Of Individual Seeking To Appear
`
`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice admission is accompanied by declaration of
`
`Mr. Conkle attesting to the facts required by the Board in Unified Patents, Inc. v.
