`PETITIONER INTEL’S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO WITHDRAW AND
`SUBSTITUTE COUNSEL
`
`
`1 Cavium, LLC. (formerly Cavium, Inc.), which filed a Petition in Case
`
`IPR2018-00403, and Dell Inc., which filed a Petition in Case IPR2018-01307, have
`
`been joined as petitioners in this proceeding.
`
`
`
`
`
`Case IPR2018-00234
`U.S. Patent No. 8,805,948
`
`I.
`
`RELIEF REQUESTED
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(e), and as authorized by the Board via an email
`
`dated January 31, 2022 (see 37 C.F.R. § 42.20(b)), Petitioner Intel Corporation
`
`(“Intel”) respectfully requests permission for Garland T. Stephens (Reg. No. 37,242)
`
`to withdraw as lead counsel for Intel in the above-captioned proceeding and for Anne
`
`Cappella (Reg. No. 43,217) to be designated as lead counsel in this case. Intel
`
`additionally moves to withdraw the following named back up counsel: Justin L.
`
`Constant (Reg. No. 66,883) and Melissa L. Hotze (Reg. No. 55,279). Intel’s Updated
`
`Mandatory Notices, filed herewith, identify updated lead and first backup counsel
`
`for this proceeding.
`
`II. THERE IS GOOD CAUSE FOR THE BOARD TO AUTHORIZE
`WITHDRAWAL AND SUBSTITUTION OF COUNSEL
`The withdrawal of lead counsel is requested because current lead counsel has
`
`left his firm. Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §11.116(b)(1), withdrawal can be accomplished
`
`without material adverse effect to the client’s interest. Intel’s Updated Mandatory
`
`Notices, filed herewith, identify updated lead and first backup counsel for this
`
`proceeding. These individuals are currently First and Second Backup Counsel in
`
`this proceeding, and Intel approves of them representing it going forward in this
`
`proceeding. No extensions of time are sought with this Motion, and it is believed
`
`that granting this Motion will not hinder the ability of the Office to timely complete
`
`this proceeding.
