`
`PATENT OWNER’S OBJECTIONS TO PETITIONER’S
`SUPPLEMENTAL EVIDENCE PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1)
`
`April 17, 2023
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Patent Owner hereby objects to
`
`Petitioner’s supplemental exhibits served April 10, 2023—the Welch declaration
`
`(dated April 3, 2023), Barfield declaration (dated April 6, 2023), and Welch
`
`declaration (dated April 7, 2023)—because Petitioner does not rely on or reference
`
`those exhibits in its Petition. Because Petitioner itself did not deem those documents
`
`to be relevant to the issues raised in the Petition, the Board should ignore them as
`
`well under FRE 401 and 402.
`
`Patent Owner objects to the Welch declaration (dated April 3, 2023) under
`
`FRE 702, 703, and 37 C.F.R. § 42.65 as offering inadmissible expert testimony.
`
`Patent Owner further objects to the Welch declaration (dated April 3, 2023) as
`
`irrelevant because it fails to authenticate Exhibit 1007 (or any other exhibit)
`
`submitted with the Petition.
`
`Patent Owner objects to the Barfield declaration (dated April 6, 2023) under
`
`FRE 702, 703, and 37 C.F.R. § 42.65 as offering inadmissible expert testimony.
`
`Patent Owner objects to the Welch declaration (dated April 7, 2023) under
`
`FRE 702, 703, and 37 C.F.R. § 42.65 as offering inadmissible expert testimony.
`
`Patent Owner maintains its objections to the purported underlying exhibits
`
`referenced in the supplemental exhibits (Exhibits 1007 and 1017) as stated in Patent
`
`Owner’s objections served on April 5, 2023.
