`Patent 10,947,513 B2
`On April 6, 2022, we held a conference call with counsel for the
`parties and the judges on this panel participating. A transcript of the call
`will be made of record in this proceeding. The purpose of the call was to
`discuss Petitioner’s request to file a pre-institution Reply to address certain
`arguments raised in Patent Owner’s Preliminary Response. In particular,
`Petitioner seeks a Reply to address: the legal effect of Patent Owner’s
`statutory disclaimer of challenged claims 1–8, 10–12, and 14–26, Patent
`Owner’s arguments for discretionary denial under 35 U.S.C. § 325(d), Patent
`Owner’s arguments related to burdens and certain evidentiary showings
`concerning Petitioner’s reliance on “common knowledge,” and Petitioner’s
`request for a refund for additional claim fees paid for the disclaimed claims.
`As explained during the conference call, the standard for authorizing a
`pre-institution reply is good cause. 37 C.F.R. § 42.208(c). Having
`considered the parties’ respective positions, we determine that good cause
`exists for Petitioner to file a Reply limited to the § 325(d) issue. At this
`point, we do not authorize further briefing on the other issues requested by
`Petitioner.
`Accordingly, it is hereby:
`ORDERED that Petitioner is authorized to file a pre-institution Reply
`limited to addressing the § 325(d) argument raised in Patent Owner’s
`Preliminary Reply; such a Reply shall be limited to 5 pages and filed no later
`than April 15, 2022; no further evidence is authorized to be submitted with
`Petitioner’s Reply.
