`ORDER
`Conduct of the Proceeding
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`
`
`On July 13, 2017, the Board entered an order granting Patent Owner’s
`motion to dismiss in part but not terminating this proceeding. Paper 32.
`That order set the due date for Patent Owner’s Preliminary Response as “one
`month from the date of entry of [the] Order.” Id. at 18. This due date would
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2017-00572
`Patent 8,252,571 B2
`
`be earlier than the August 21 due date previously agreed to by the parties
`and set by the Board. Paper 31. On July 14, 2017, Patent Owner contacted
`the Board via email to request clarification of the deadline to file its
`Preliminary Response. We hereby provide that clarification. Patent
`Owner’s Preliminary Response, should it choose to file one, is due August
`21, 2017. If either party has any concerns or questions regarding the
`schedule, the parties may contact the Board for a conference call.
`
`Accordingly, it is
`ORDERED that the deadline for Patent Owner to file its Preliminary
`Response shall be August 21, 2017.
