`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`I.
`
`
`INTRODUCTION
`On October 20, 2021, Apple Inc. (“Petitioner” or “Apple”) filed a petition
`
`requesting post-grant review of claims 1-17 (“challenged claims”) of U.S. Patent
`
`No. 10,600,046 (Ex. 1001, “’046 Patent”). Paper 1. (“Petition” or “Pet.”). At the
`
`same time, Apple filed a motion for joinder with PGR2021-00028, which had been
`
`instituted on July 23, 2021. Paper 3 (“Motion”). The Declaration of Stephen Gray
`
`(Ex. 1003, “Gray Declaration”) accompanied the Petition and Motion. On
`
`November 8, 2021, the Board issued a Notice of Filing Date Accorded for the post-
`
`grant petition and set the time for filing patent owner’s preliminary response. Paper
`
`4. Patent Owner timely filed an opposition to Apple’s Motion on November 22,
`
`2021 (Paper 5), and Apple filed a reply on December 22, 2021 (Paper 6).
`
`
`
`The ’046 Patent issued on March 24, 2020. It became ineligible for PGR on
`
`December 24, 2020. 35 U.S.C. § 321 (c).
`
`
`
`Before Apple filed its Petition, the Parties in PGR2021-00028 had already
`
`jointly moved to terminate the -00028 proceedings due to settlement. PGR2021-
`
`00028, Paper 14. Apple’s motion for joinder comes long after the one-month joinder
`
`window expired on August 23, 2021. 37 C.F.R. § 42.222(b).
`
`
`
`The Board should deny institution because the ’046 Patent is not eligible for
`
`PGR. Moreover, as discussed in RFCyber’s Opposition, Apple failed to file a
`
`1
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`motion for joinder within the one-month joinder window, and Apple has not shown
`
`any reason the Board should suspend its rules to allow a late filing.
`
`
`
`Moreover, the Board should further deny institution because each of the
`
`limitations Apple identifies are described in the ’046 Patent specification itself.
`
`Moreover, the claims of the ’046 Patent are not directed to an abstract idea and
`
`contain inventive concepts.
`
`
`
`Accordingly, the Board should deny the Petition.
`
`II. THE ’046 PATENT
`A. The ’046 Patent’s Priority Chain
`The ’046 Patent is a continuation of Application No. 13/853,937 (the “’937
`
`
`
`Application”), which issued as U.S. Patent No. 9,047,601. The ’937 Application is
`
`a continuation-in-part of Application No. 13/350,832 (the “’832 Application”), filed
`
`on Jan. 16, 2012, which is a continuation-in-part of Application No. 11/534,653,
`
`which issued as U.S. Patent No. 8,118,218.
`
`
`
`The ’046 Patent further claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No.
`
`61/618,802 (the “’802 Provisional”), which was filed on April 1, 2012.
`
`The ’046 Patent’s Disclosure
`B.
`The ’046 Patent describes methods and apparatuses for secure contactless
`
`
`
`payment using mobile devices. The inventors, Xiangzhen Xie, Liang Seng Koh, and
`
`2
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`Hsin Pan, recognized that existing payment methods were inefficient and time-
`
`consuming:
`
`For many credit or debit card transactions, the payment process is
`started by a customer asking for a bill when checking out a purchase. A
`cashier or service member brings a bill to the customer for verification.
`The customer then hands out a credit/debit card to the service member.
`The service member brings the card to a Point of Sales (POS) counter
`to initiate a transaction payment. The service member then brings back
`a receipt to the customer for signature to authorize the transaction. It is
`a lengthy process that typically takes a couple of minutes or much
`longer when the service member has to take care of multiple payment
`transactions at a time. In addition, in the case for the debit card
`transactions, the process may be even more troublesome when a PIN is
`needed to authorize the transaction at the POS.
`
`’046 Patent at 1:25-39. The inventors realized that the growing ubiquity of personal
`
`mobile devices allowed for the use of those devices in sales transactions:
`
`With the advancement in mobile devices, it is anticipated that many
`
`consumers will carry one with them. Thus there is an opportunity of
`
`using a mobile device to quickly settle the payment at a point of sale
`
`(POS).
`
`Id. at 1:40-44.

`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`
`
`The inventors of the ’046 Patent designed an apparatus and method for using
`
`mobile devices to quickly and efficiently settle payments:
`
`The present invention is related to techniques for mobile devices
`configured to support settlement of charges in electronic invoices or
`bills. According to one aspect of the present invention, a mobile device
`embedded with a secure element generates or is loaded with an
`electronic invoice. When the mobile device is brought to a consumer
`with an NFC mobile device, the data including the electronic invoice
`and other information regarding the mobile device or an owner thereof
`is read off wirelessly into the NFC mobile device. After the user verifies
`the amount being charged and authorizes the payment, the NFC mobile
`device communicates with a payment gateway or network for payment
`that is configured to proceed with the payment in accordance with a
`chosen payment method.
`
`Id. at 1:54-67.
`
`III. LEVEL OF ORDINARY SKILL IN THE ART
`
`For the purposes of this Preliminary Response only, Patent Owner uses
`
`Apple’s proposed level of skill in the art: bachelor’s degree in computer science,
`
`computer engineering, or an equivalent, and one year of professional experience
`
`relating to mobile payment technology. Lack of professional experience could be
`
`remedied by additional education, and vice versa. Pet. at 26-27.

`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`IV. THE ’046 PATENT IS INELIGIBLE FOR POST-GRANT
`REVIEW
`A. Apple Filed Its Petition Outside the Statutory Nine Month
`Post-Issuance Cutoff
`The Board should deny Apple’s Petition because it was filed on October 20,
`
`2021, nearly 19 months after the ’046 Patent issued. “A petition for a post-grant
`
`review may only be filed not later than the date that is 9 months after the date of the
`
`grant or of the issuance of a reissue patent (as the case may be).” 35 U.S.C. § 321(c).
`
`Congress did not authorize the Board to institute PGRs after the statutory time limit
`
`and the statute does not provide any exception for PGR petitions seeking joinder.
`
`Compare 35 U.S.C. § 315 (setting out express exception for IPR post-complaint time
`
`limit for joinder) with 35 U.S.C. § 325 (providing no such exception for PGR
`
`joinder). If Congress wanted to authorize an exception to the 9-month cutoff, it
`
`could have done so; its decision not to include an exception cannot be ignored. See
`
`SAS Inst., Inc. v. Iancu, 138 S. Ct. 1348, 1355 (2018) (noting with respect to other
`
`sections of the AIA that “if Congress wanted to adopt the Director’s approach it
`
`knew exactly how to do so” and Congress’ choice not do so “must be given effect”)
`
`Apple does not address this issue in its Petition. See Pet. at 11-21. Indeed,
`
`the Petition’s discussion of PGR eligibility is premised solely on whether the ’046
`
`5
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`Patent’s priority applications lack written description for the claims. Id. The Petition
`
`is silent as to the requirements of 35 U.S.C. § 321(c).
`
`In Apple’s Reply to RFCyber’s opposition to the motion for joinder, Apple
`
`argues that “37 C.F.R. § 42.5(b) gives the Board discretion to ‘waive or suspend’”
`
`the nine-month cutoff. Reply, 1. Apple mischaracterizes the nine-month PGR cutoff
`
`as being “set forth in Rule 42.202.” Id. As described above, however, the nine-
`
`month cutoff is statutory; the Board’s Rules cannot (and do not attempt to) alter or
`
`abrogate the express provisions of the statute. SAS Inst., 138 S. Ct. at 1355 (“Where
`
`a statute’s language carries a plain meaning, the duty of an administrative agency is
`
`to follow its commands as written, not to supplant those commands with others it
`
`may prefer.”) The statute provides, with no exceptions, that any petition for post-
`
`grant review must be filed within nine months of the patents’ issuance. The Board
`
`must follow those commands as written.
`
`Apple further argues that § 321’s silence regarding joinder must mean that a
`
`petition seeking joinder is not subject to the nine-month cutoff. Id. Apple quotes
`
`Pauley v. BethEnergy Mines, Inc., 501 U.S. 680, 703 (1991) out of context for the
`
`idea that “The Supreme Court has soundly rejected attempts to make law out of what
`
`the legislature has not said.” But that case dealt with interpreting regulations in view
`
`of the regulations’ governing statute. Id. at 701-02. More critically, the rejected
`
`6
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`position was “inconsistent with the text of the authorizing statute.” Id. at 702. Apple
`
`sums up with the curious interpretation that “Congress did not draft 35 U.S.C. § 321
`
`to foreclose a petitioner’s ability to join a properly instituted PGR past the 9-month
`
`window and no such prohibition should be read into this provision.” Reply, 2. In
`
`other words, Apple’s position is that because § 321 does not contain the text “There
`
`are no exceptions to this provision,” it is subject to exceptions imported from another
`
`chapter of the statute.
`
`Apple’s position is nonsensical. §§ 321 and 325 provide no exception to the
`
`nine-month cutoff, and Apple cannot import the IPR joinder exception into the PGR
`
`chapter of the statute. See SAS, 138 S. Ct. at 1355 (“Congress’s choice to depart
`
`from the model of a closely related statute is a choice neither we nor the agency may
`
`disregard.”). Indeed, the IPR joinder exception is not only specific to IPRs, it is
`
`specific to one and only one IPR time bar:
`
`An inter partes review may not be instituted if the petition requesting
`the proceeding is filed more than 1 year after the date on which the
`petitioner, real party in interest, or privy of the petitioner is served with
`a complaint alleging infringement of the patent. The time limitation set
`forth in the preceding sentence shall not apply to a request for joinder
`under subsection (c).
`
`7
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`35 U.S.C. § 315(b) (emphasis added). The exception is thus limited by its express
`
`terms to obviating the 1-year post complaint bar. It does not exempt joinder petitions
`
`from every time limit applying to IPRs. For example, it does not allow joinder
`
`petitions, if the petitioner or a real party in interest filed a civil action challenging
`
`the validity of a clam of the patent. 35 U.S.C. § 315(a). Nor does it allow exceptions
`
`to the IPR filing deadline under §311.
`
`Apple cites only one case in support of its position. Reply, 2 (citing Visa Inc.
`
`v. Universal Security Registry, LLC, CBM2019-00025, Paper No. 7 (P.T.A.B. Jun.
`
`11, 2019)). That case, which has not been designated as precedential, did not
`
`concern the applicability of §321(c) because CBM review is expressly exempt from
`
`§321(c)’s requirements. AIA § 18(a)(1)(A). Moreover, the Patent Owner did not
`
`file an opposition to the motion for joinder or a preliminary response to the petition.
`
`Visa, CBM2019-00025, Paper 7 at 2. Accordingly, Visa provides no guidance as to
`
`this case.
`
`In sum, Congress made a clear and conscious decision to allow one exception
`
`to the various IPR deadlines in the case of joinder, while not providing any exception
`
`to the PGR-eligibility deadline. The Board should not infer such an exception and
`
`defy the expressed will of Congress. SAS, 138 S. Ct. at 1355.
`
`8
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`
`Accordingly, the ’046 Patent is not eligible for PGR and the Board should
`
`deny the Petition.
`
`B.
`
`35 U.S.C. §327 Does Not Allow Apple to Substitute for
`Google
`Since Google and RFCyber filed their motion to terminate the -00028
`
`proceeding before Apple filed its petition, the statute mandates that the -00028
`
`proceeding be terminated, leaving Apple with nothing to join. 35 U.S.C. § 327(a)
`
`(“A post-grant review instituted under this chapter shall be terminated with respect
`
`to any petitioner upon the joint request of the petitioner and the patent owner, unless
`
`the Office has decided the merits of the proceeding before the request for termination
`
`is filed.” (emphasis added)). As the Board has noted, the AIA does not allow Apple
`
`to substitute itself for Google now that the parties have settled. Sony Corp. of Am.
`
`v. Network-1 Sec. Sols., Inc., IPR2013-00495, Paper 13 at 9 (P.T.A.B. Sep. 16, 2013)
`
`(“The AIA, however, does not provide for the ‘replacement’ of a party. A petitioner
`
`may settle with the patent owner and upon entering the joint request, the review will
`
`terminate with respect to the petitioner.”) (emphasis added) (quoting 77 Fed. Reg.
`
`48680, 48707 (Aug. 14, 2012)).
`
`Apple’s only response to this point is to again argue that the Board should
`
`disregard the express language of the statute. Reply, 4 (“Rule 42.72 leaves it to the
`
`Board’s discretion to join Petitioner prior to ruling on the pending motion to
`
`9
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`terminate.”) As discussed above, the Board’s rules do not override the statute. SAS
`
`Inst., 138 S. Ct. at 1355 (“Where a statute’s language carries a plain meaning, the
`
`duty of an administrative agency is to follow its commands as written…”). Apple’s
`
`citation to AT&T Services, Inc. v. Covergent Media Solutions, LLC, IPR2017-01237,
`
`Paper 10, at 27 (P.T.A.B. May 10, 2017) is irrelevant. There, the party seeking
`
`joinder filed its petition before the parties in the other proceeding filed their motion
`
`to terminate. Id. at 27. This precise sequence of events—the opposite of what
`
`happened in this case—was key to the Board’s decision to grant joinder and institute.
`
`Id. (“The Petition and motion for joinder in this proceeding were, therefore, pending
`
`sufficiently in advance of Patent Owner’s filing of its motion to terminate the
`
`pending review for the Board to consider the Petition and motion for joinder prior
`
`to deciding whether to terminate the pending review.” (emphasis added)).
`
`Accordingly, §327 provides a separate, independent basis to deny the Petition.
`
`C. Even If the Statute Allowed for Apple’s Petition, the
`Board’s Rules Do Not
`Apple argues that it should be allowed to file its Petition out of the statutory
`
`time and join the -00028 PGR because RFCyber sued Apple after the 9-month PGR
`
`10
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`eligibility window and the 30-day IPR joinder window had closed. Apple states that
`
`the sequencing of lawsuits is “gamesmanship.”
`
`Apple is wrong. There is no requirement for RFCyber to sue every infringer
`
`of its patents at the same time. See, e.g., Pfizer, Inc. v. Teva Pharms. USA, Inc., 429
`
`F.3d 1364, 1381 (Fed. Cir. 2005) (“A patentee does not have to sue all infringers at
`
`once.”). RFCyber initially filed suit against three different defendants in the Eastern
`
`District of Texas: Samsung, Google, and LG. See Pet. at 2; see also RFCyber v. LG
`
`Elecs., No. 2:20-cv-00336, Dkt. 1 (E.D. Tex. Oct. 16, 2020). The LG case reached
`
`a settlement in principle on July 20, 2021 and the parties moved for dismissal on
`
`September 8, 2021; RFCyber filed suit against Apple in the Western District of
`
`Texas on September 7, 2021. Ex. 2006, 2007; Motion at 3. The sequence of events
`
`shows that RFCyber acted reasonably and there was no gamesmanship.
`
`However, even if the Board were inclined to grant Apple some leniency based
`
`on Apple being sued after the 30-day IPR joinder window had passed,1 Apple’s
`
`further delay cannot be excused. Apple did not seek joinder when it was first sued
`
`on September 7, 2021. Apple still did not seek joinder when Google and RFCyber
`
`
`1 As noted above, the PGR statute provides no exception for parties who were sued
`
`after the 9-month PGR window had closed.
`
`11
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`announced their settlement on September 28, 2021. See Ex. 2001, 2002. Apple did
`
`not even seek joinder when Google and RFCyber filed a stipulation of dismissal in
`
`the District Court on October 18, 2021. See Ex. 2003. Instead, Apple waited until
`
`October 20, 2021, the day after Google and RFCyber filed the Joint Motion to
`
`Terminate the -00028 PGR on October 19, 2021.
`
`The Board’s Rules do not allow for such dilatory conduct. “Any request for
`
`joinder must be filed, as a motion under § 42.22, no later than one month after the
`
`institution date of any post-grant review for which joinder is requested.” 37 C.F.R.
`
`§42.222(b). Apple cannot show good cause to suspend the rules because of its delay.
`
`Apple argues that it acted diligently in waiting five weeks to attempt to join
`
`Google’s PGR. But Apple’s Petition is admittedly a copycat Petition. Indeed, Apple
`
`did nothing more than substitute its name and counsel for Google’s. For example,
`
`Apple’s Petition falsely states that “Petitioner is also concurrently filing a petition
`
`for post-grant review of the ’046 Patent that challenges claims 1-17 under 35 U.S.C.
`
`§ 103.” Pet. at 3. Apple did not act diligently.
`
`Because Apple did not act diligently, it cannot show good cause to suspend
`
`the Board’s Rules. The Board should accordingly deny the Petition.
`
`V. CONCLUSION
`
`Apple’s Petition comes long after the ’046 Patent became statutorily ineligible
`
`12
`
`

`

`PGR2022-00003
`PATENT NO. 10,600,046
`
`
`for post-grant review. The statute provides no exception to the 9-month PGR cutoff.
`
`Moreover, even if the statute allowed for Apple’s belated petition, the Board’s rules
`
`do not and Apple cannot show good cause to suspend those Rules. Accordingly,
`
`Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board deny Google’s Petition in its
`
`entirety.
`
`
`
`
`
`Dated: February 8, 2022
`
`
`
`
`
`Respectfully submitted,
