`Patent 6,837,590 B2
`
`
`
`Pursuant to our Order of May 2, 1018 (Paper 31, “Post-SAS Order”),
`the parties conferred and requested a conference call with the panel to
`discuss additional briefing. A conference call was held on May 9, 2018,
`between counsel for the parties and Judges Droesch and Braden.
`The parties indicated that they were in general agreement that
`additional briefing was not necessary. Counsel for Patent Owner, however,
`sought clarification regarding whether, by not seeking additional briefing,
`Patent Owner risked default judgment as to the claims and grounds modified
`by the Post-SAS Order. The panel advised the parties that Petitioner bears
`the burden of persuasion as to unpatentability, and a final written decision
`addressing all challenged claims and all grounds presented in the Petition
`will issue based on the record before the panel.
