`
`INTRODUCTION
`Patent Owner (Ethicon) moves to seal in their entirety Exhibits 2001-2009,
`
`2012-2015, and 2017 pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.14 and 42.54.
`
`Patent Owner moves to seal portions of Exhibit 2019 that rely on Exhibits
`
`2001-2007 and 2013-2015 pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.14 and 42.54.
`
`Patent Owner also moves to seal portions of Patent Owner’s Response that
`
`rely on Exhibits 2001-2009, 2012-2015, 2017, and Ex. 2019 pursuant to 37 C.F.R.
`
`§§ 42.14 and 42.54.
`
`By agreement of the parties, Patent Owner also requests entry of the
`
`Proposed Protective Order (Attachment 1).1 Patent Owner has conferred with
`
`Petitioner (Intuitive), and the parties have stipulated to the Proposed Protective
`
`Order.
`
`II. REASONS FOR THE REQUESTED RELIEF AND STATEMENT OF
`FACTS
`A. Good Cause Exists for Sealing Confidential Information
`The Board will seal documents for good cause. See 37 C.F.R. § 42.54(a);
`
`see also Argentum Pharms. LLC v. Alcon Research, Ltd., Paper 27, 2 (2013). “The
`
`rules aim to strike a balance between the public’s interest in maintaining a
`
`
`1 Attachment 2 is a redline showing the differences between the proposed
`
`protective order and the PTAB default protective order.
`
`
`
`1
`
`

`

`complete and understandable file history and the parties’ interest in protecting truly
`
`sensitive information.” Office Patent Trial Practice Guide, 77 Fed. Reg. 48756,
`
`48760 (2012). The public’s interest in having access to confidential business
`
`information that is only indirectly related to patentability is “minimal.” Garmin v.
`
`Cuozzo, IPR2012-00001, Paper 36, 8-9 (2013) (granting a motion to seal an
`
`agreement relating to the “commercializ[ation]” of the patent-at-issue). Such
`
`documents should be subject to the Proposed Protective Order. See Attachment 1
`
`at 5-6 (“[I]nformation designated as confidential that [is] disclosed to another party
`
`during discovery or other proceedings before the Board shall be clearly marked as
`
`‘PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIAL’ and shall be produced in a manner that
`
`maintains its confidentiality.”).
`
`B.
`
`Exhibits 2001-2007, 2013-2015: Patent Owner Technical
`Documents
`Exhibits 2001–2007 and 2013-2015 comprise technical documents of Patent
`
`
`
`Owner that contain confidential design information concerning surgical stapling
`
`technology. These exhibits detail in their entirety confidential and proprietary
`
`research and development information that, if publicly disclosed, would
`
`substantially harm Patent Owner’s competitive position in the surgical instrument
`
`industry and ongoing work directed to, inter alia, surgical staplers. For example,
`
`this information, if not sealed, would provide competitors with valuable
`
`
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`

`information regarding confidential research and development projects. Such
`
`information could also be used by a competitor to improve its products.
`
`C. Exhibits 2008, 2009, and 2017: Patent Owner Employee
`Declarations
`Exhibits 2008, 2009, and 2017 comprise declarations from employees of
`
`Patent Owner’s affiliate regarding the development of surgical stapling technology
`
`at Ethicon. These exhibits also describe the contents of Exhibits 2001-2007 and
`
`2013-2015, which comprise technical documents of Patent Owner containing
`
`confidential design information. Exhibits 2008, 2009, and 2017 provide further
`
`confidential and proprietary research and development information of Patent
`
`Owner that, if publicly disclosed, would substantially harm Patent Owner’s
`
`competitive position in the surgical instrument industry and ongoing work directed
`
`to, inter alia, surgical staplers. For example, this information, if not sealed, would
`
`provide competitors with valuable information regarding confidential research and
`
`development projects. Such information could also be used by a competitor to
`
`improve its products. Exhibits 2008, 2009, and 2017 also detail the process by
`
`which Ethicon develops instrument technology, which if disclosed, would provide
`
`competitors with valuable information regarding Ethicon’s internal processes.
`
`D. Exhibit 2012: Declaration of Dean Garner
`Exhibits 2012 is a declaration from a current employee of Patent Owner that
`
`describes and includes confidential employment files. This exhibit contains
`
`
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`

`confidential identifying and other personal information of employees. This exhibit
`
`further contains confidential business information of Patent Owner that if publicly
`
`disclosed, would provide competitors with valuable information regarding
`
`Ethicon’s internal processes.
`
`E.
`Exhibit 2019: Declaration of Dr. Shorya Awtar
`Exhibit 2019 is a declaration from Patent Owner’s expert witness, Dr.
`
`Shorya Awtar. Portions of Exhibit 2019 describe and include images of
`
`confidential and proprietary information from Exhibits 2001-2009 and 2013-2015.
`
`This confidential and proprietary research and development information of Patent
`
`Owner, if publicly disclosed, would substantially harm Patent Owner’s competitive
`
`position in the surgical instrument industry and ongoing work directed to, inter
`
`alia, surgical staplers. For example, this information, if not sealed, would provide
`
`competitors with valuable information regarding confidential research and
`
`development projects. Such information could also be used by a competitor to
`
`improve its products.
`
`F.
`Patent Owner’s Response
`Portions of Patent Owner’s Response describe and include images of
`
`confidential and proprietary information in Exhibits 2001-2009, 2013-2015, and
`
`2019. This confidential and proprietary research and development information of
`
`Patent Owner, if publicly disclosed, would substantially harm Patent Owner’s
`
`
`
`
`
`4
`
`

`

`competitive position in the surgical instrument industry and ongoing work directed
`
`to, inter alia, surgical staplers. For example, this information, if not sealed, would
`
`provide competitors with valuable information regarding confidential research and
`
`development projects. Such information could also be used by a competitor to
`
`improve its products.
`
`III. CERTIFICATION OF NON-PUBLICATION
`On Patent Owner’s behalf, the undersigned counsel certifies that, to the best
`
`of his knowledge, the sealed Exhibits 2001-2009, 2012-2015, and 2017, and sealed
`
`portions of Exhibit 2019 and Patent Owner’s Response have not been published or
`
`otherwise made public.
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`Patent Owner respectfully requests that the Board grant its motion to seal in
`
`their entirety, Exhibits 2001-2009, 2012-2015, and 2017, and portions of Exhibit
`
`2019 and Patent Owner’s Response, and that the Board also enter the attached
`
`agreed upon Protective Order. If the Board is not inclined to grant the motion to
`
`seal due to some deficiency in this motion, Patent Owner respectfully requests
`
`leave to file another motion to seal to correct that deficiency, or in the alternative, a
`
`motion to expunge Ethicon’s confidential documents and information from the
`
`record.
