`NOTICE OF FILING DATE ACCORDED TO PETITION
`AND
`TIME FOR FILING PATENT OWNER PRELIMINARY RESPONSE
`
`The petition for inter parties review in the above proceeding has been
`accorded the filing date of August 27, 2014.
`
`
`
`IPR2014-01393
`Patent 6,778,074
`
`
`A review of the petition identified the following defect(s):
`
`Claim charts should only be used to provide an
`element-by-element showing as to how the prior art
`teaches the limitations of a claim (e.g., citations to a prior
`art reference, quotations from a prior art reference).
`Claim charts may not include arguments, claim
`construction, statements of the law, or detailed
`explanations as to why a claim limitation is taught or
`rendered obvious by the prior art. A mere citation to an
`expert declaration (e.g., “See Ex. 1015 ¶ 29”) in a claim
`chart is permissible, but anything more than a mere
`citation is improper.
`
`
`
`Petitioner must correct the defect(s) within FIVE BUSINESS DAYS
`from this notice. Failure to correct the defect(s) may result in an order to
`show cause as to why the Board should institute the trial. No substantive
`changes (e.g., new grounds) may be made to the petition.
`Patent Owner may file a preliminary response to the petition no later
`than three months from the date of this notice. The preliminary response is
`limited to setting forth the reasons why the requested review should not be
`instituted. Patent Owner may also file an election to waive the preliminary
`response to expedite the proceeding. For more information, please consult
`the Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, 77 Fed. Reg. 48756 (Aug. 14, 2012),
`which is available on the Board Web site at http://www.uspto.gov/PTAB.
