`DECLARATION OF JESSICA HUTSON POLAKOWSKI IN SUPPORT OF
`PETITIONER'S MOTION FOR ADMISSION PRO HAC VICE OF JESSICA
`HUTSON POLAKOWSKI PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. §42.10
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`I, Jessica Hutson Polakowski, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am an experienced litigating attorney with more than ten (10) years
`
`of experience.
`
`2.
`
`I have been litigating patent cases for at least eight (8) years.
`
`3.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Wisconsin State Bar and am
`
`admitted to practice in the United States Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit, the
`
`United States District Courts for the Eastern and Western Districts of Wisconsin
`
`and the United States District Courts for the Northern District of Illinois.
`
`4.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any
`
`court or administrative body.
`
`5.
`
`I have never had an application for admission to practice before any
`
`court or administrative body denied.
`
`6.
`
`I have had no sanctions or contempt citations imposed against me by
`
`any court or administrative body.
`
`7.
`
`I have reviewed and am personally familiar with the technology and
`
`subject matter at issue in this proceeding, including the Petition challenging Pat.
`
`No. U.S. 9,174,155, and with the Petition in the related proceeding IPR2016-
`
`00982. I am familiar with the challenged patent, the prior art cited in this
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`proceeding, and facts and opinions set forth in Petitioner’s expert declaration. I
`
`have also reviewed and am personally familiar with the Patent Owner’s

`Preliminary Response (filed August 4, 2016), and the exhibits and declarations
`
`filed therewith.
`
`8.
`
`I have also reviewed and am personally familiar with the co-pending
`
`litigation styled CAMFIL USA, INC., d/b/a CAMFIL AIR POLLUTION CONTROL
`
`v. IMPERIAL SYSTEMS, INC. and CLARK FILTER, 2:15-cv-1755, in the United
`
`States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. I understand that the co-
`
`pending litigation has been stayed during the pendency of this inter partes review.
`
`9.
`
`I have read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice
`
`Guide and the Board's Rules of Practice for Trials set forth in part 42 of the C.F.R.
`
`10.
`
`I agree to be subject to the USPTO Code of Professional
`
`Responsibility set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§10.20 et seq., and to disciplinary
`
`jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. §11.19(a).
`
`11.
`
`I have appeared pro hac vice three related proceedings before the
`
`Office in the last three (3) years: IPR2012-0006, IPR2012-00007 and IPR2013-
`
`00011, each styled Illumina, Inc. v. The Trustees of Columbia University in the
`
`City of New York. Each of these proceedings reached a Final Written Decision on
`
`March 6, 2014.
`
`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`I hereby declare that all statements made herein of my own knowledge are true and
`
`that all statements made on information and belief are believed to be true; and
`
`further that these statements are made with the knowledge that willful false
`
`statements and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both,
`
`under Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
