`Case IPR2014-00418
`Patent 5,500,819
`
`
`
`
`
`The Scheduling Order (Paper 8) for this proceeding provided that an
`oral hearing would be conducted if the hearing is requested by the parties
`and granted by the Board. Patent Owner and Petitioner requested oral
`hearing pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70. Papers 20, 21. The requests are
`granted.
`Each side will have sixty (60) minutes of total time to present
`argument for this proceeding. Petitioner bears the ultimate burden of proof
`that Patent Owner’s claims at issue are unpatentable. Thus, Petitioner will
`open the hearing by presenting its case regarding the challenged claims for
`which we instituted trial. Petitioner may reserve some of its argument time
`for rebuttal. Thereafter, Patent Owner will respond to Petitioner’s
`presentation.
`The hearing will commence at 1:00 PM on May 6, 2015, on the ninth
`floor of Madison Building East, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria, Virginia.
`The Board will provide a court reporter for the hearing and the reporter’s
`transcript will constitute the official record of the hearing and will be entered
`in the record of each proceeding. The hearing will be open to the public for
`in-person attendance that will be accommodated on a first-come, first-served
`basis.
`Furthermore, under 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(b), demonstrative exhibits must
`be served at least five business days before the hearing date. Barring any
`objections to the demonstratives by the opposing party, the parties are
`authorized to file any demonstrative exhibits in this proceeding in PRPS
`three business days prior to the oral hearing date. The parties also should
`note that one or more members of the panel will be attending the hearing
`electronically from a remote location and will not be able to view the

`
`projection screen in the hearing room. The parties are reminded that the
`presenter must identify clearly and specifically each demonstrative exhibit
`(e.g., by slide or screen number) referenced during the hearing to avoid
`confusion, and to ensure the clarity and accuracy of the reporter’s transcript.
`If there are objections to the demonstratives, the party raising the
`objections must communicate those objections via email to
`Trials@uspto.gov. Any objection to demonstrative exhibits that is not
`presented timely will be considered waived. The objections should identify
`with particularity which demonstratives are subject to objection and include
`a short (one sentence or less) statement of the reason for each objection. No
`argument or further explanation is permitted. The Board will consider the
`objections and schedule a conference if deemed necessary. Otherwise, the
`Board will reserve ruling on the objections until at or after the oral
`argument. The parties are directed to St. Jude Medical, Cardiology Division,
`Inc. v. The Board of Regents of the University of Michigan, Case IPR2013-
`00041 (PTAB Jan. 27, 2014) (Paper 65), for guidance regarding the
`appropriate content of demonstrative exhibits. See also CBS Interactive Inc.
`v. Helferich Patent Licensing, LLC, Case IPR2013-00033 (PTAB Oct. 23,
`2013) (Paper 118) (The Board has the discretion to limit the parties’
`demonstratives to pages in the record should there be no easy resolution to
`objections over demonstratives.).
`The Board expects lead counsel for each party to be present in person
`at the oral hearing. However, any counsel of record may present the party’s
`argument. If either party expects that its lead counsel will not be attending
`the oral argument, the parties should initiate a joint telephone conference

`
`
`with the Board no later than two business days prior to the oral hearing to
`discuss the matter.
`Any special requests for audiovisual equipment should be directed to
`Trials@uspto.gov. Requests for special equipment will not be honored
`unless presented in a separate communication not less than five days before
`the hearing, directed to the above email address.
