`ORDER
`Conduct of the Proceedings
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`
`
`
`
`1 This order is being filed in each proceeding listed in the caption, due to the
`common issues addressed. The parties are not authorized to use a combined
`caption in these proceedings.

`
`
`On October 23, 2023, Petitioner’s counsel sent an email
`communication (“Email”)2 to the Board requesting an increase in the page
`limitation for the Response to Expert Testimony, from 10 pages to
`15 pages,3 in both of these two proceedings. Petitioner suggests this
`increase is justified “given the length of Dr. Duckworth’s declaration
`(77 pages) and the number of issues addressed.” See Email.
`We have reviewed the Patent Owner Sur-reply4 and the Declaration of
`R. James Duckworth5 filed with the Sur-reply. We conclude that 10 pages is
`a sufficient allotment for Petitioner to respond to the 34 pages of argument
`in the Sur-reply, which includes several illustrations.
`In consideration of the foregoing, it is hereby ORDERED that
`Petitioner’s request for an increase in the page limitation for the Response to
`Expert Testimony is denied.
