`
`Petitioner moves to exclude Ex. 2023, 2024, 2027, and 2028. Pet.
`
`Mot. Exclude 1. These exhibits relate to Patent Owner’s contentions of
`
`copying. We did not rely on any of those exhibits in reaching our decision,

`
`consist of documents and deposition testimony relating to the Roadtec RX-

`
`
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`
`
`
`For the reasons given, based on the arguments and evidence of record,
`
`Petitioner has not met its burden to prove by a preponderance of the
`
`evidence that claims 1–7, 13–24, and 26 of the ’530 patent are unpatentable
`
`under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) over the combinations of Swisher and Glasson,
`
`Swisher, Glasson, and Davis, and Swisher, Glasson, and Hosseini. See
`
`35 U.S.C. § 316(e). We dismiss Petitioner’s and Patent Owner’s Motions to
`
`Exclude as moot.
`
`Accordingly, it is:
`
`V. ORDER
`
`ORDERED that claims 1–7, 13–24, and 26 of the ’530 patent have not
`
`
`
`
`
`been proven unpatentable;
