`
`
`
`I.
`
`Rehearing Is Needed to Correct a Fundamental Misreading of the
`Evidence and Petition
`
`Rehearing is rarely granted, but it is needed here to correct a fundamental
`
`misunderstanding of the prior art and Petitioner Securus’ arguments, which
`
`resulted in a decision not to institute that is not supported by the evidence. The
`
`primary reference, Bulriss, discloses two modes of operation—public and privacy.
`
`The public-mode disclosure—exclusively relied on by Securus—teaches the
`
`claimed communications monitoring, but the Board mistakenly relied on the
`
`privacy-mode description of non-monitored attorney-client communications as the
`
`basis for denying institution. By overlooking Securus’ reliance on the public mode
`
`and how that mode functions, the Board reached a conclusion that is contrary to the
`
`evidence. For example, the Board noted in several places that Bulriss’s
`
`communications could be protected by the attorney-client privilege and assumed
`
`that its communications occur only when other devices are locked out from
`
`monitoring. (See, e.g., Paper 8 (“Decision”) at 8, 10-11.) These statements are only
`
`true of Bulriss’s privacy mode and do not apply to the public mode described in the
`
`reference and presented throughout the Petition.
`
`The Board’s remaining reasons for denying institution stem from its
`
`mistaken reliance on the privacy mode to the exclusion of the public mode on
`
`which the Petition relies. For example, the Board found that Bulriss would not
`
`have been combined with Hesse’s scheduling mechanism because private
`
`
`
`- 1 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`communications need to occur on an ad hoc basis and having to schedule them
`
`would be counter to Bulriss’s purpose of providing communications without delay.
`
`(Decision at 12.) These concerns, however, overlook that Bulriss provides its
`
`timely private communications because it has already established a public-mode
`
`communication channel at the beginning of the hearing or trial. Because the
`
`courtroom and inmate are already connected in public mode, the judge can quickly
`
`and easily enable Bulriss’s privacy mode so the attorney and inmate can
`
`communicate privately at a moment’s notice. Without the preexisting public-mode
`
`communication channel, ad hoc private communications would take longer to set
`
`up during trial, requiring the inmate to move to a location with conferencing
`
`equipment and a private connection. Scheduling a public-mode communication
`
`channel—the channel relied on throughout the Petition—is not only consistent
`
`with Bulriss’s goals, it is presupposed to occur in certain Bulriss embodiments.
`
`The Board’s mistaken reliance on the privacy-mode issues in Bulriss was
`
`invited by GTL’s preliminary response, which failed to address the public mode
`
`disclosures that formed the basis of the Petition. Because the Board followed
`
`GTL’s lead and overlooked or misapprehended the public-mode arguments and
`
`evidence when denying institution, Securus respectfully requests rehearing and
`
`institution of review on all claims, as set forth in the Petition.

`
`II. Legal Standard
`“A party dissatisfied with a decision may file a request for rehearing without
`
`prior authorization from the Board.” 37 C.F.R. §42.71(d). “The request must
`
`specifically identify all matters the party believes the Board misapprehended or
`
`overlooked, and the place where each matter was previously addressed in a motion,
`
`an opposition, or a reply.” Id. The Board reviews a decision for an abuse of
`
`discretion. 37 C.F.R. §42.71(c). “An abuse of discretion may arise if a decision is
`
`based on an erroneous interpretation of law, if a factual finding is not supported by
`
`substantial evidence, or if an unreasonable judgment is made in weighing relevant
`
`factors.” Daicel Corp. v. Celanese Int’l Corp., IPR2015-00173, Paper 15 at 2
`
`(P.T.A.B. June 26, 2015) (citing Federal Circuit cases).
`
`III. Argument
` The Petition and Supporting Evidence Relied Solely on
`A.
`Bulriss’s Public Mode
`Securus focused its unpatentability analysis on Bulriss’s public mode, in
`
`which a judge and jury can monitor conversations between an inmate and attorney
`
`via a judge control panel and courtroom displays. (Petition at 32.) Securus stated
`
`that “[j]udge control panel 44 acts as a ‘monitoring station’ or a ‘third
`
`terminal’ … .” (Id.) And “[i]n addition to judge’s control panel 44, Bulriss’s
`
`display devices 96 also constitute a ‘monitoring station’ or a ‘third terminal’
`
`because the judge may send the communications data to display devices 96 for
`
`
`
`- 3 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`display in the courtroom, where it can be monitored by the judge and jury.” (Id.)
`
`Securus then quoted from Bulriss’s public-mode explanation that “the judge
`
`may select, from a menu, the preferred display format for the display devices 96 …
`
`the judge may select a format where the prosecuting attorney, the defense,
`
`attorney, the inmate, and the judge are simultaneously depicted on the display
`
`devices 96. In this manner … the conduct of each of the parties [may] be displayed
`
`to the jury … .” (Petition at 32-33, citing Ex. 1005 at 17:4-12.) Securus further
`
`explained that “[i]n Bulriss’s system the judge’s control panel 44 and display
`
`devices 96—the monitoring stations or third terminals—are located in [the]
`
`courtroom.” (Petition at 36-37, citing Ex. 1005 at 17:4-12; Fig. 2A; Ex. 1002 at ¶
`
`[0126].) These passages demonstrate that Securus relied on Bulriss’s public mode,
`
`where communications between an attorney and inmate are displayed for a judge
`
`and jury to monitor.
`
`Other examples of Securus’ reliance on Bulriss’s public mode include:
`
` Petition at 15, citing Ex. 1005 at 17:5-12, Ex. 1002 at ¶ [049];
`
` Petition at 23, citing Ex. 1005 at 17:4-12, Ex. 1002 at ¶ [091];
`
` Petition at 30-31, citing Ex. 1005 at Fig. 2A, 12:64-13:14, and 17:4-12;
`
`Ex. 1002 at ¶ [0109];
`
` Petition at 36-37, citing Ex. 1005 at 17:4-12; Fig. 2A; Ex. 1002 at
`
`¶ [0126]; and

`
`

`
`
`
` Petition at 42, citing Ex. 1005 at 17:13-18.
`
`The public mode disclosures in Bulriss, as analyzed in the Petition,
`
`demonstrate unpatentability of the claims. The Board, however, based its decision
`
`on unrelated concerns that apply solely to Bulriss’s privacy mode, which was not
`
`relied on by Securus.
`
`
`
`B.
`
`The Board’s Focus on Bulriss’s Privacy Mode Ignores the
`Petition’s Public-Mode Analysis
`Much of the Decision focuses on issues related to Bulriss’s privacy mode,
`
`which are not relevant to the public-mode analysis in the Petition. For example, the
`
`Board agreed with GTL’s argument “that the communication in Bulriss referred to
`
`is attorney-client privileged communication, and although it may be initiated by
`
`the judge, it is not monitored and is private.” (Decision at 10.) The Board also
`
`stated that “[i]f the ‘visit’ claimed is the specific communication between the
`
`attorney and the inmate only, it will not be monitored without vitiating the
`
`attorney-client privilege. In other words, if utilized in ‘privacy’ mode, as discussed
`
`above, all other devices would be ‘locked out,’ and the attorney-client sidebar
`
`stations would not be monitored.” (Id.) The Decision also separately quoted and
`
`emphasized the lockout features of Bulriss’s privacy mode. (Id. at 8.)
`
`There is no dispute that Bulriss discloses a privacy mode that may implicate
`
`some of the privilege and other concerns noted by the Board, but because Securus
`
`relied on the public mode instead, these issues are not relevant here. To the extent
`
`
`
`- 5 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`the Board relied on privacy-mode concerns to deny institution, the Board
`
`misapprehended that those concerns were not relevant to the public-mode analysis
`
`presented in the Petition.
`
`C.
`
` The Petition Demonstrated that Bulriss’s Public Mode
`Discloses the Claimed Monitoring Features
`The Board’s analysis of Bulriss’s public mode was tainted by its mistaken
`
`inference from the privacy mode that all attorney-inmate conversations are
`
`privileged. In its public-mode discussion, the Board stated that “Bulriss is clear
`
`that based on the type of communications, those communications may not be
`
`monitored.” (Decision at 11.) But not every communication between an attorney
`
`and a client is privileged, and Bulriss’s public mode is used to allow those non-
`
`privileged communications to be displayed to a judge and jury for monitoring. And
`
`if the attorney-client sidebar stations could only be used for privileged
`
`communications, why would they have a public mode at all? The notion that those
`
`stations are only used for unmonitorable privileged communications is illogical in
`
`light of Bulriss’s repeated teaching that those stations have a public mode.
`
`The Board also stated that “if the communication is used in ‘public mode,’
`
`then it is not clear that this would be the communication between the inmate and
`
`attorney that Petitioner relies upon.” (Decision at 10.) But as discussed above, the
`
`Petition relied exclusively and repeatedly on Bulriss’s public-mode description of
`
`the attorney and inmate communication being broadcast to monitors in the
`
`
`
`- 6 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`courtroom. (See, e.g., Petition at 32-33, citing Ex. 1005 at 17:4-12.)
`
`The Board’s comment also implies that the attorney-client communication
`
`differs between the public and privacy modes, but in both modes an attorney
`
`communicates with an inmate using the attorney-client sidebar station that “may
`
`operate in a privacy or in a public mode.” (Ex. 1005 at 16:24-26.) Bulriss also
`
`describes communications in both modes using the same hardware configuration,
`
`Figure 2A, which is discussed throughout the Petition.1 (See, e.g., Petition at 14,
`
`22, 24, 25, 26, 30, 33, 35, and 38.)
`
`The primary differences between Bulriss’s two communication modes are:
`
`(1) in privacy mode the attorney and inmate communicate using telephone-like
`
`handsets as opposed to the public mode’s microphones; and (2) in privacy mode,
`
`other monitoring devices may be locked out by disabling them or routing
`
`communication signals away from them. (See, e.g., Ex. 1005 at 16:24-31; 18:2-8.)
`
`
`1 This is like the ’816 patent, where the same hardware captures private,
`
`attorney-client privileged communications and non-privileged communications.
`
`(See Ex. 1001 at 15:10-14, “However, in other embodiments, the video visit may
`
`have been between an inmate and his attorney. In such embodiments, the warden
`
`may not be authorized to view the recording of the video visit because of attorney-
`
`client privilege issues.”)
`
`
`
`- 7 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`Neither of these differences, however, changes that the attorney and client
`
`communicate through the attorney-client sidebar station in both modes. Securus
`
`discussed communications through the attorney-client sidebar station as being “the
`
`communications between the inmate and attorney that Petitioner relies upon.” (See
`
`Petition at 15, 16, 22-25, 30-33, and 36.) The Board’s comment to the contrary
`
`evidences its misapprehension.
`
`The Board continued
`
`that,
`
`if Securus relies on Bulriss’s “general
`
`communication between the inmate and the judge or one of the attorneys, it does
`
`not include the specific use of the attorney-client sidebar station relied upon by
`
`Petitioner. Such general communication would necessarily have more than those
`
`two participants, and although it could include exchanges between the inmate and
`
`his or her attorney, it is not the communication relied upon by Petitioner.”
`
`(Decision at 10-11.) The Board similarly stated that “the specific communication
`
`between the inmate and his or her attorney would not be the same as the
`
`simultaneous depiction of all parties on the display devices.” (Id. at 11-12.)
`
`But the judge and jury are not necessarily parties to the conversation
`
`occurring through the attorney-client sidebar station. In fact, outside of voir dire,
`
`juries are almost never allowed to communicate with parties or their counsel
`
`during a trial. Instead they are limited to passing notes to the judge, who may ask
`
`the parties the questions if appropriate. The jury’s function is to monitor the trial’s
`
`
`
`- 8 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`communications and use them as the judge permits when deciding a case. Bulriss
`
`even refers to the jury displays as “monitors.” (Ex. 1005 at 14:7-12.)
`
`Securus explained this monitoring function throughout its Petition. (See
`
`Section III.A, supra; see also Petition at 32, “the judge may send the
`
`communications data to display devices 96 for display in the courtroom, where it
`
`can be monitored by the judge and jury.”) To the extent the Board declined to
`
`institute based on the judge or jury being parties to the communication and
`
`therefore not monitoring the communication, as claimed, the Board overlooked or
`
`misapprehended that the reference also discloses the judge and jury in monitoring
`
`roles.
`
`The Board also stated that this type of monitored exchange “is not the
`
`communication relied upon by Petitioner,” and that “although it is possible that a
`
`‘video visit’ may encompass more than communications between the inmate and
`
`attorney … Petitioner has not relied on more in its Petition.” (Decision at 11.) For
`
`the reasons above, these statements misapprehend that the Petition repeatedly relies
`
`on
`
`this very
`
`type of monitored communication, where more
`
`than
`
`the
`
`communicating parties may view it.
`
`D.
`
` GTL’s Irrelevant Privacy-Mode Analysis Should Not Have
`Influenced the Board’s Public-Mode Analysis
`
`GTL’s preliminary response may have created some of the confusion over
`
`this issue because, instead of addressing the public mode discussed throughout the
`
`
`
`- 9 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`Petition, GTL exclusively addressed Bulriss’s privacy mode. (See Paper No. 6.) In
`
`summarizing its argument, for example, the preliminary response states that any
`
`monitoring “would cause infringement upon a communication protected by the
`
`attorney-client privilege,” and that Bulriss “is aimed squarely at maintaining such
`
`communications ‘in confidence’ so as not to lose ‘its protected status under … the
`
`attorney-client privilege.” (Id. at 2.) But these arguments having nothing to do with
`
`the Petition’s public-mode analysis.
`
`In the one place where GTL briefly mentions monitoring by a judge or jury,
`
`it turns the discussion to Bulriss’s privacy mode, contending that Bulriss does not
`
`disclose the claimed monitoring because the judge can enable a mode where the
`
`other devices are locked out (i.e., the judge can enable Bulriss’s privacy mode).
`
`(Id. at 14-15.) But again, this argument focuses only on Bulriss’s privacy mode and
`
`does not address its public mode. GTL then quotes Bulriss’s statements about its
`
`attorney-client sidebar station being located out of earshot of the others in the
`
`courtroom. (Id. at 16.) GTL never mentions, however, Bulriss’s disclosure that
`
`“the courtroom attorney-client sidebar station 48 also may be located at the defense
`
`attorney’s table,” (Ex. 1005 at 17:49-50), which would be well within earshot of
`
`the judge and jury.
`
`The preliminary response also appears to rely heavily on Bulriss’s choice of
`
`terminology, repeatedly
`
`italicizing “attorney-client sidebar”
`
`throughout
`
`its
`
`
`
`- 10 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`response. (See id. at 12-22.) While the term “sidebar” might imply a private
`
`communication in other contexts, Bulriss uses this term to describe stations having
`
`both public and privacy modes as explained above in Section III.C. And as the
`
`Supreme Court explained long ago, a patentability analysis turns on the way a prior
`
`art system operates, not on the names used to describe it. Bates v. Coe, 98 U.S. 31,
`
`42 (1878) (“In determining about similarities and differences, courts of justice are
`
`not governed merely by the names of things; but they look at the machines and
`
`their devices in the light of what they do, or what office or function they perform,
`
`and how they perform it.”).
`
`It is not clear to what extent GTL’s privacy-mode arguments affected the
`
`Board’s decision, but to the extent the Board allowed them to influence their
`
`public-mode analysis, Securus respectfully requests that the Board reconsider its
`
`analysis in light of the overlooked and misapprehended facts identified throughout
`
`this request that were raised in the Petition.
`
`
`
`E.
`
`Scheduling of Public-Mode Communications Ensures the
`Timeliness of Bulriss’s Privacy-Mode Communications
`In the context of Bulriss’s public mode discussed throughout the Petition, if
`
`an inmate is scheduled to view an entire hearing or trial, scheduling the connection
`
`is a logical step one of ordinary skill in the art would have taken. As explained in
`
`the Petition and supported by Securus’ expert, “[s]witching device 22 establishes
`
`its first and second data connections in association with a scheduled court
`
`
`
`- 11 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`proceeding, so Bulriss arguably discloses the ‘at a scheduled time’ feature of the
`
`claims. (Ex. 1002 at ¶ [097].)”
`
`This fact is confirmed throughout Bulriss, which presupposes that a public-
`
`mode connection already exists between the courthouse and the inmate at the time
`
`the privacy mode is enabled. For example, Bulriss states that “when the judge
`
`selects the attorney-client sidebar mode of operation [i.e., privacy mode], the
`
`system 10, 38 uses the established communications link between the courtroom 16
`
`and the jail 14 for the communications link between the attorney’s station 48 and
`
`the inmate’s station 62, 172.” (Ex. 1005 at 18:59-63, emphasis added.) It then
`
`explains
`
`that, when enabling privacy mode, “a separate communications
`
`connection between the attorney and the inmate is not established.” (Id. at 18:64-
`
`66.) No separate privacy-mode connection is required because one has already
`
`been established in public mode.
`
`The Board adopted GTL’s argument that establishing connections at a
`
`scheduled time would impede or delay a court proceeding. (Decision at 12.) But
`
`this argument misapprehends that Bulriss’s system achieves its timely privacy-
`
`mode communications because it already has a connection between the courthouse
`
`and the inmate at the time a privacy-mode communication is started. Indeed, not
`
`having a pre-established connection would delay the proceedings because the
`
`inmate would need to be moved to a suitable prison location with an interface
`
`
`
`- 12 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`device and then the courthouse would need to establish a connection. There is no
`
`telling how long this might take, but it would certainly take longer than having the
`
`judge select a menu option to enable privacy-mode on an already-established
`
`public-mode connection. Scheduling a public-mode communication, such as the
`
`one discussed throughout the Petition, is not contrary to Bulriss’s goals, as the
`
`Board found, but instead enables Bulriss’s goal of providing timely privacy-mode
`
`communications.
`
`As noted in the Petition, while Bulriss arguably teaches scheduling public-
`
`mode communications to coincide with scheduled trials (Petition at 26-27), it also
`
`would have been obvious for one of ordinary skill in the art to look to Hesse’s
`
`more explicit and detailed disclosure of how to implement a scheduling mechanism
`
`(Petition at 27-28). Bulriss itself provides a motivation for scheduling public-mode
`
`communications, and it specifically identifies Hesse’s disclosure as an exemplary
`
`“prior art video conferencing system designed for courtroom use.” (Petition at 19-
`
`21, citing Ex. 1005 at 3:55-58.) Consequently, one of the first disclosures one of
`
`ordinary skill in the art would have looked to after reading Bulriss was Hesse, and
`
`it would have been obvious to implement Hesse’s scheduling features, as explained
`
`in the Petition. (Petition at 19-21; see also Optivus Tech., Inc. v. Ion Beam
`
`Applications S.A., 469 F.3d 978, 990-91 (Fed. Cir. 2006) (finding a motivation to
`
`combine where a first reference cited a second reference, and the second
`
`
`
`- 13 -
`
`Case IPR2016-00267
`Patent No. 7,256,816
`
`

`
`
`
`reference’s disclosure was complementary to and extended the teachings of the
`
`first).)
`
`Finally, the Board took issue with Securus’ motivation-to-combine analysis
`
`because it discussed the challenged ’816 patent. (Decision at 8-9.) But the
`
`Petition’s discussion of the ’816 patent simply confirmed that Bulriss and Hesse
`
`were seeking to achieve the same goals as stated in the ’816 patent. The motivation
`
`to combine exists independent of the ’816 patent and it did not come from the ’816
`
`patent itself. But even if Bulriss and Hesse had been seeking to achieve different
`
`goals from those of the ’816 patent, one of ordinary skill in the art still would have
`
`combined their disclosures because Bulriss cites Hesse and Hesse discloses in
`
`more detail the specific mechanisms for scheduling connections like Bulriss’s, as
`
`discussed in the Petition. (Petition at 19-21.) The motivation to combine is
`
`therefore explicit in the references, averting any concerns the Board has regarding
`
`the lack of a known problem in the art. (See Decision at 9, citing In re Nomiya, 509
`
`F.2d 566, 573 (CCPA 1975), and KSR Int’l Co. v. Teleflex, Inc., 550 U.S. 398, 420
`
`(2007).)
`
`IV. Conclusion
`Because the Board misapprehended or overlooked critical facts that formed
`
`the basis for its denial of institution, Securus respectfully requests rehearing and
`
`institution of review on all claims, as set forth in the Petition.
