`
`GOOGLE’S PROPOSED STIPULATION OF FACT
`
`Inter Partes Review Determinations
`
`U.S. Patent No. 7,917,843 (“’843 Patent”) was the subject of a proceeding at the Patent
`
`Office called inter partes review, also referred to as “IPR.” An IPR permits a petitioner to request
`
`cancellation of patent claims as unpatentable on the basis of prior art consisting of patents or
`
`printed publications. Specifically:
`
`● On December 2, 2013, Google filed an IPR arguing that the Asserted Claims of the
`
`’843 Patent were invalid because they are obvious in light of U.S. Patent No. 5,859,636,
`
`also referred to as the “Pandit” reference. That ground is different from the prior art
`
`grounds that Google is raising as a defense in this trial.
`
`● On June 9, 2015, the Patent Office issued a Final Written Decision in the IPR, holding
`
`that the Asserted Claims of the ’843 Patent were invalid because they were obvious in
`
`light of Pandit. The Patent Office found that Pandit taught all of the limitations of the
`
`Asserted Claims except for one: “performing a search using at least part of the first
`
`information as a search term in order to find the second information, of a specific type
`
`or types, associated with the search term in an information source external to the
`
`document,” but the Patent Office found that limitation would still be obvious to a
`
`person of ordinary skill.
`
`● Arendi appealed that decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal
`
`Circuit, also referred to as simply the “Federal Circuit.” On August 10, 2016, the
`
`Federal Circuit reversed the Patent Office’s Final Written Decision regarding Pandit.
`
`The legal basis for the Federal Circuit’s decision is not relevant to any of the specific
`
`invalidity grounds raised by Google in this trial.

`
`
`
`The litigation in this court was stayed and therefore became inactive on February 24, 2014
`
`in order to allow for final resolution of the IPR. The case restarted on October 23, 2018 after the
`
`IPR proceedings were completed.

`
`GOOGLE’S PROPOSED LIMITING INSTRUCTION
`
`Inter Partes Review Determinations
`
`The ’843 Patent was the subject of a proceeding at the Patent Office called inter partes
`
`review, also referred to as “IPR,” filed by Google. An IPR permits a petitioner to request
`
`cancellation of patent claims as invalid on the basis of prior art consisting of patents or printed
`
`publications.
`
`In the IPR, Google could not have raised, and the Patent Office did not consider, any of
`
`the prior art grounds that Google is now relying on in this trial. When I say “prior art grounds,” I
`
`mean each combination of prior art that Google contends renders the ’843 Patent invalid for
`
`being anticipated or obvious. For example, one such ground is CyberDesk alone, another ground
`
`is U.S. Patent No. 5,859,636 (also referred to as the “Pandit” reference) plus the CyberDesk
`
`system, and yet another ground is Pandit plus the Apple Data Detectors system. Google is
`
`permitted to raise these prior art grounds for you to assess in determining whether the Asserted
`
`Claims are invalid.
`
`You have heard evidence that the Patent Office issued a Final Written Decision in the
`
`IPR finding that the Asserted Claims of the ’843 Patent were obvious in view of the Pandit
`
`reference. The Patent Office’s Final Written Decision did not analyze any other prior art
`
`grounds.
`
`You have also heard evidence that the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal
`
`Circuit, also referred to as the “Federal Circuit,” reversed the Patent Office’s decision in the IPR,
`
`holding that, for legal reasons not relevant here, the Pandit reference alone does not invalidate
`
`the ’843 Patent. The legal basis on which the Federal Circuit ruled does not apply to any of the
`
`invalidity grounds raised by Google in this trial.
`
`

`Case 1:13-cv-00919-JLH Document 473-1 Filed 04/20/23 Page 6 of 6 PageID #: 49960
`
`
`
`You may consider these two decisions by the Patent Office and the Federal Circuit, and
`
`no other evidence from the IPR, for the purposes of assessing two things: (1) Google’s belief in
`
`the invalidity of the ’843 Patent, which is relevant to whether any infringement by Google was
`
`willful; and (2) any argument that the Patent Office already considered the Pandit reference in
`
`analyzing whether the Asserted Claims of the ’843 Patent are invalid. You may not consider the
`
`decisions by the Patent Office and the Federal Circuit for any other purpose, including for the
`
`purpose of determining whether the ’843 Patent is invalid.
`
`You must independently determine whether or not Google has persuaded you by clear
`
`and convincing evidence that the Asserted Claims of the ’843 Patent are invalid. The decisions
`
`by the Patent Office and the Federal Circuit are not binding on you or this Court with regard to
`
`any issue in this case, and you may choose to reach a different result for any or all of the
`
`following reasons:
`
`1.
`
`The Patent Office and the Federal Circuit did not consider the same prior art
`
`grounds that are being presented to you in this case.
`
`2.
`
`The Patent Office and the Federal Circuit did not consider the same testimony and
`
`all of the same evidence that are being presented to you in this case.
`
`3.
`
`The Patent Office and the Federal Circuit did not have the benefit of the live
`
`testimony or cross examination that you do.
`
`4.
`
`The legal standards applied in the decisions by the Patent Office and Federal
`
`Circuit differ from the legal standards that you must apply in this case.
