`
`BEFORE THE PATENT TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD
`
`ASSA ABLOY AB, ASSA ABLOY INC., ASSA ABLOY RESIDENTIAL
`GROUP, INC., AUGUST HOME, INC., HID GLOBAL CORPORATION,
`ASSA ABLOY GLOBAL SOLUTIONS, INC.,
`Petitioner,
`
`v.
`
`CPC PATENT TECHNOLOGIES PTY LTD.,
`Patent Owner.
`
`Case IPR2022-01006
`Patent 9,665,705
`
`JOINT REQUEST FOR REHEARING
`
`

`

`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.71(d)(1) and the Board’s email of December 12,
`
`2022, the parties jointly submit this request for rehearing of the decision granting
`
`institution in this matter (“the Decision”) (Paper 23).
`
`This request for rehearing is respectfully submitted to alert the Board of an
`
`error in the Decision relating to the “Mathiassen” reference relied on in the present
`
`Petition. In particular, the “Mathiassen” reference relied on as a secondary
`
`reference in the present Petition is WO 02/28067 to Camilla Mathiassen
`
`(“Mathiassen-067”). Ex. 1004. This reference was correctly identified on page 10
`
`of the Decision, which sets forth the grounds in the Petition. However, within its
`
`discussion of Petitioner’s Ground 1, the Board included a discussion of a different
`
`Mathiassen reference that is included in Apple’s petition in related IPR2022-00602
`
`(“the ’602 Apple petition”). See Decision at 50-51. That reference is US Pub
`
`2004/0123113 to Svein Mathiassen et al. (“Mathiassen-113”). Moreover, on page
`
`15, the Decision states that “Mathiassen is the only reference common to both the
`
`’602 Apple petition and the Petition in the case now before us.” This statement is
`
`incorrect because the Mathiassen references are different, and neither is common
`
`to both the ‘602 Apple petition and the present Petition.
`
`It is noted that both Mathiassen-067 and Mathiassen-113 coincidentally
`
`share the same exhibit number (Ex. 1004) in their respective proceedings. As
`
`1
`
`

`

`suggested in the Board’s email of December 12, 2022, this may have contributed to
`
`the apparent confusion.
`
`In response to the parties jointly providing notice of this issue to the Board,
`
`the Board’s email of December 12, 2022 indicated as follows: “The preferred
`
`procedure to allow the Board to correct this error is for Patent Owner, or the parties
`
`jointly, to request rehearing of the 01006 decision.” This is consistent with the
`
`requirement that institution be based solely on the grounds and prior art raised in
`
`the petition (see e.g., Sirona Dental Sys. GMBH v. Institut Straumann AG, 892
`
`F.3d 1349, 1356 (Fed. Cir. 2018)). Accordingly, the parties request that the Board
`
`re-issue a decision that “fully and fairly consider[s]” the correct Mathiassen
`
`reference. See Board’s email of December 12, 2022.
`
`Respectfully submitted this 15th day of December 2022,
