`
`
`Patent Owner's lead and back-up new counsel in the proceeding meet the
`
`
`
`requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c) and are registered practitioners. In addition,
`
`Patent Owner’s new counsel has read and intends to comply with the Office Patent
`
`Trail Practice Guide and the Board's Rules of Practice for Trials, as set forth in Part
`
`42 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
`
`
`
`A Substitute Power of Attorney for Patent Owner's new counsel was
`
`submitted on November 30, 2016. In identifying and designating new counsel who
`
`are ready and able to take over the representation, reasonable steps have been taken
`
`to "avoid foreseeable prejudice to the rights of the client, including giving due
`
`notice to his or her client, [and] allowing time for employment of another
`
`practitioner." See 37 C.F.R. § 10.40(a). In addition, a decision on whether to
`
`institute this inter partes review has not yet issued, and no extensions of time will
`
`be needed upon grant of this Motion. Patent Owner therefore believes that
`
`granting this motion will not hinder the economy, the integrity of the patent system,
`
`the efficient administration of the Office, or the ability of the Office to timely
`
`complete this proceeding. See 35 U.S.C. § 316(b).
`
`
`

`
`
`
`III. CONCLUSION
`
`Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board grant this motion to withdraw
`
`counsel and substitute new counsel. Updated mandatory notices pursuant to 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.8(b)(3) and (b)(4) will be filed upon grant of this motion.
