`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`Pursuant to the Board’s email of November 16, 2022, Petitioners ASSA
`
`ABLOY AB, ASSA ABLOY Inc., ASSA ABLOY Residential Group, Inc., August
`
`Home, Inc., HID Global Corporation, and ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions, Inc.
`
`(collectively, “Petitioners”) and Patent Owner CPC Patent Technologies Pty Ltd.
`
`(“CPC” or “Patent Owner”) respectfully submit this Revised Joint Motion for
`
`Protective Order. The Parties have agreed upon entry of a [Proposed] Stipulated
`
`Protective Order (“Stipulated Protective Order”) in this proceeding. The Stipulated
`
`Protective Order is attached hereto as Appendix A. A mark-up showing the
`
`differences between the Stipulated Protective Order and the PTAB’s default
`
`protective order is also provided and attached hereto as Appendix B. Appendices A
`
`and B have been revised in accordance with the Board’s instructions in the
`
`aforementioned email.
`
`II. GOOD CAUSE EXISTS FOR ENTERING THE STIPULATED
`PROTECTIVE ORDER
`A party seeking to protect confidential information may seek entry of a
`
`protective order in a proceeding before the Board. See, e.g., Garmin Int’l, Inc. v.
`
`Cuozzo Speed Techs, LLC, IPR2012-00001, Paper 34 (PTAB Mar. 14, 2013).
`
`Upon a showing of good cause, the Board may enter a protective order to protect
`
`from public disclosure such confidential information as disclosed by a party during
`
`the course of a proceeding before the Board. See 37 CFR § 42.54.
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`

`Patent Owner and Petitioners have agreed to use the Stipulated Protective
`
`Order in Appendix A to govern the handling of confidential information in this
`
`proceeding. The Stipulated Protective Order corresponds to the default protective
`
`order set forth in the Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, but has been amended to
`
`1) revise confidential information designations; 2) preclude access by the Parties
`
`and limit in-house counsel access to the protected information; and 3) provide for
`
`notice provisions if disclosure of the protected information to an independent
`
`consultant or expert is sought. See Appendix B (mark-up showing amendments of
`
`the Stipulated Protective Order relative to the language in the Board’s default
`
`protective order).
`
`Amendment 1) is analogous to an outside-counsel-eyes-only designation and
`
`is necessary because the information sought to be protected is considered by the
`
`designating party to be highly sensitive technical and business trade secret
`
`information.
`
`Amendment 2) provides minor revisions to the provisions relating to who
`
`may access the protected material, including precluding access by the Parties and
`
`provisions relating to limiting the number of in-house counsel who have access to
`
`the protected information, as well as prior approval of the opposing party of in-
`
`house counsel before disclosure. These minor revisions are designed to avoid
`
`inadvertent disclosure of each party’s protected information.
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`

`Amendment 3) pertains to notice provisions regarding disclosure of
`
`protected information to independent consultants or experts. This revision is
`
`typical in standard protective orders and ensures there is no conflict of interest.
`
`In view of the foregoing, good cause exists to enter the Stipulated Protective
`
`Order. Accordingly, Patent Owner and Petitioners respectfully request entry of the
`
`Stipulated Protective Order.

`
`confidential description of the nature of the confidential information
`
`that is under seal, and set forth the reasons why the information is
`
`confidential and should not be made available to the public. A party
`
`may challenge the confidentiality of the information by opposing the
`
`Motion to Seal. The documents or information shall remain under
`
`seal unless the Board determines that some or all of it does not
`
`qualify for confidential treatment.
`
`(ii). Where confidentiality is alleged as to some but not all of the
`
`information submitted to the Board, the submitting party shall file
`
`confidential and non-confidential versions of its submission, together
`

`
`version is confidential and should not be made available to the
`
`public. A party may challenge the confidentiality of the information
`
`by opposing the Motion to Seal. The non-confidential version of the
`
`submission shall clearly indicate the locations of information that has
`
`been redacted. The confidential version of the submission shall be
`
`

`

`filed under seal. The redacted information shall remain under seal

`
`information does not qualify for confidential treatment.
`
`(B). Documents and Information Exchanged Among the Parties.
`
`Documents (including deposition transcripts) and other information
`
`designated as confidential that are disclosed to another party during
`
`discovery or other proceedings before the Board shall be clearly
`
`marked as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE
`
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” and shall be produced in a manner that
`
`maintains its confidentiality.
`
`7. Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, including the
`
`exhaustion of all appeals and motions, each party receiving confidential
`
`information must return, or certify the destruction of, all copies of the confidential
`
`information to the producing party.

`4.5.
`
`Persons receiving confidential information shall use reasonable efforts
`
`to maintain the confidentiality of the information, including:
`
`(A). Maintaining such information in a secure location to which persons
`
`not authorized to receive the information shall not have access;
`
`(B). Otherwise using reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of
`
`the information, which efforts shall be no less rigorous than those the
`
`recipient uses to maintain the confidentiality of information not received
`
`from the disclosing party;
`
`(C). Ensuring that support personnel of the recipient who have access to
`
`the confidential information understand and abide by the obligation to
`
`maintain the confidentiality of information received that is designated as
`
`confidential; and
`
`(D). Limiting the copying of confidential information to a reasonable

`
`Persons receiving confidential information shall use the following
`
`procedures to maintain the confidentiality of the information:

`

`(A). Documents and Information Filed with the Board.
`
`Case No. IPR2022-01006
`Patent No. 9,665,705
`
`
`(i). A party may file documents or information with the Board along with
`
`a Motion to Seal. The documents must be filed as viewable by the
`
`Board and counsel only. The Motion to Seal should provide a non-
`
`confidential description of the nature of the confidential information
`
`that is under seal, and set forth the reasons why the information is
`
`confidential and should not be made available to the public. A party
`
`may challenge the confidentiality of the information by opposing the
`
`Motion to Seal. The documents or information shall remain under
`
`seal unless the Board determines that some or all of it does not
`
`qualify for confidential treatment.
`
`(ii). Where confidentiality is alleged as to some but not all of the
`
`information submitted to the Board, the submitting party shall file
`
`confidential and non-confidential versions of its submission, together
`
`with a Motion to Seal the confidential version setting forth the
`
`reasons why the information redacted from the non-confidential
`
`version is confidential and should not be made available to the
`
`public. A party may challenge the confidentiality of the information
`
`by opposing the Motion to Seal. The non-confidential version of the
`
`submission shall clearly indicate the locations of information that has
`
`

`

`been redacted. The confidential version of the submission shall be
`
`Case No. IPR2022-01006
`Patent No. 9,665,705
`
`
`filed under seal. The redacted information shall remain under seal
`
`unless the Board determines that some or all of the redacted
`
`information does not qualify for confidential treatment.
`
`(B). Documents and Information Exchanged Among the Parties.
`
`Documents (including deposition transcripts) and other information
`
`designated as confidential that are disclosed to another party during
`
`discovery or other proceedings before the Board shall be clearly
`
`marked as “PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIALCONFIDENTIAL”
`
`or “CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”
`
`and shall be produced in a manner that maintains its confidentiality.
`
`7. Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, including the
`
`exhaustion of all appeals and motions, each party receiving confidential
`
`information must return, or certify the destruction of, all copies of the confidential
`
`information to the producing party.
