`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`DISCRETIONARY DENIAL OF THE PENDING PETITION IS
`NEITHER APPROPRIATE NOR EQUITABLE
`The unique facts of this case differentiate it from cases previously denied
`
`institution on a discretionary basis. Apple is merely the latest in a line of technology
`
`companies targeted for assertion of Seven Networks’ (“Seven”) patent portfolio, and
`
`is unlikely to be the last. In this context, the Board’s review of the pending Petition
`
`will likely serve the interests of the market as a whole, just as past IPRs have proven
`
`central to the efficient resolution of past cases involving Seven’s patents. Indeed, “a
`
`holistic view of” the facts of this case’s relationship to the “efficiency and integrity
`
`of the system” counsels toward consideration of the Petition on the merits. Apple
`
`Inc. v. Fintiv, Inc., IPR2020-00019 Pap. 11, 6 (PTAB Mar. 20, 2020) (precedential).
`
`Seven is a serial litigant with a history of asserting patents against successful
`
`technology companies. Since 2015, Seven has filed no fewer than seven patent
`
`infringement complaints, asserting at least thirty patents against companies
`
`including Google LLC (“Google”), Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (“Samsung”),
`
`ZTE (USA) Inc. (“ZTE”), and Apple. APPLE-1051. The patents asserted by Seven
`
`have been, and continue to be, demonstrably weak and deserving of cancellation.
`
`During the prior litigations involving Samsung, Google, and ZTE, the targeted
`
`companies filed over thirty IPR petitions. See APPLE-1048. Despite Seven’s
`
`attempts to derail those petitions based on procedural challenges, the Board
`
`ultimately considered many on the merits, and instituted the vast majority. See id.
`1
`

`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`Seven settled before any instituted proceeding progressed to trial, and the Board’s
`
`institutions advanced efficient resolution of those cases, several of which, as here,
`
`were also being tried before Judge Gilstrap in the Eastern District of Texas.
`
`Twelve of the patents Seven asserted against Apple are related to the patents
`
`it asserted in the prior litigations, and seven of them are related to patents against
`
`which IPR petitions have previously been instituted, or were pending institution at
`
`the time of settlement, but which never reached final written decision. Without
`
`merits-based consideration of Apple’s petitions, Seven will undoubtedly continue its
`
`campaign of litigation in asserting these same (or continuations of the same) patents
`
`against other technology companies. This sort of litigation exhausts the judicial
`
`system of valuable resources, as acknowledged by Congress in its enactment of the
`
`AIA. See H.R. Rep. No. 112-98, pt. 1, at 40 (2011). In creating IPRs, Congress
`
`noted that “litigation abuses, especially ones committed by those who thrive on low
`
`quality patents, impede the promotion of the progress of science and the useful arts.”
`
`153 Cong. Rec. E773 (2007). To combat these abuses, Congress recognized the
`
`benefits of “allow[ing] key issues to be addressed by experts in the field”: the Board.
`
`157 Cong. Rec. S5319 (Sen. Kyl).
`
`In determining whether to exercise its discretion to institute IPRs, the Board
`
`has recently focused on whether the same invalidity issues raised within a petition
`
`are expected to be resolved in district court, prior to that petition’s projected final
`

`
`2
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`written decision date. See NHK Spring Co. Ltd. v. Intri-Plex Techs. Inc., IPR2018-
`
`00752 Pap. 8, 19-20 (PTAB Sep. 12, 2018) (precedential) (presentation of “the
`
`same prior art and arguments” in the PTAB and district court weighed in favor of
`
`discretionary denial). At the same time, “the Board’s cases addressing earlier trial
`
`dates as a basis for denial under NHK have sought to balance considerations such
`
`as system efficiency, fairness, and patent quality.” Apple Inc. v. Fintiv, Inc.,
`
`IPR2020-00019 Pap. 11, 3 (PTAB Mar. 20, 2020) (precedential).
`
`Consistent with Congressional intent and the goals expressed in NHK and
`
`Fintiv,1 Apple asks the Board—and the Board alone—to consider the challenges
`
`raised in the Petition, which are unique to the Petition. See Fintiv, 5; Intel Corp. v.
`
`VLSI Tech. LLC, IPR2019-01192, Pap. 15, 11 (PTAB Jan. 9, 2020) (“the Board
`
`seeks … to minimize the duplication of work by two tribunals to resolve the same
`
`issue”)), 13-14; Sen. Rep. No. 110-259, at 32 (2008) (Specter); 153 Cong. Rec.
`
`E773 (2007). As demonstrated below, the Fintiv factors favor institution.
`
`Fintiv Factor 1: Institution would Enable a District Court Stay
`
`                                                            
`1 The guidance set forth in NHK/Fintiv is beyond the scope of the Board’s statutory
`
`authority and, if not, is arbitrary and capricious. 5 U.S.C. §§ 706(2) (A) and (C).
`
`Apple nevertheless addresses each Fintiv factor in order, below.
`

`
`3
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`The pending Petition’s institution would enable the Board to efficiently
`
`resolve the issue of the ’550 patent’s invalidity, and could relieve the Eastern District
`
`of Texas (“District Court”) of the need to address liability altogether, including
`
`Seven’s infringement allegations, and all District Court invalidity challenges. That
`
`opportunity for simplification greatly increases the likelihood of a District Court stay
`
`in view of Petition institution. See NFC Techs. LLC v. HTC Am., Inc., Case No. 13-
`
`CV-1058, 2015 WL 1069111 (E.D. Tex. Mar. 11, 2015) (“the most important factor
`
`bearing on whether to grant a stay … is the prospect that the inter partes review
`
`proceeding will result in simplification of the issues”) (Bryson); Uniloc USA, Inc. v.
`
`Samsung Elecs. Am., Inc., Case No. 2:16-cv-642-JRG, 2-3 (E.D. Tex. Jun. 13, 2017)
`
`(Gilstrap) (granting stay in view of the “significant likelihood that the … IPR
`
`proceedings will streamline the scope of this case”).
`
`Moreover, institution of IPRs against this and other Seven patents has the
`
`potential to simplify other proceedings, by addressing prior art otherwise raised but
`
`left unaddressed in settled IPR challenges filed by Seven’s earlier targets, and by
`
`relieving future courts of the need to address the same during Seven’s serial litigation
`
`campaign. For at least these reasons, Fintiv factor 1 favors institution.
`
`Fintiv Factor 2: The District Court’s Trial Calendar Is Full
`As demonstrated by NHK’s procedural history, district court trial dates can
`
`shift, even in normal times. See Mylan Pharma. Inc. v. Sanofi-Aventis Deutschland
`

`
`4
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`GMBH, IPR2018-01680, Pap. 22, 17 (PTAB Apr. 2, 2019) (“In the … case running
`
`parallel to NHK Spring, the court ultimately moved the trial date back six months,
`
`illustrating the uncertainty associated with litigation schedules”).
`
`The District Court in this case is one of the busiest patent courts in the country.
`
`Currently, trial in this matter is scheduled to begin on November, 2, 2020. However,
`
`there are eighteen other cases scheduled to begin jury selection on November 2,
`
`including a number of large patent cases. APPLE-1050, 1-9. It is reasonable to
`
`expect that many of these cases will be resolved prior to trial, but it is likely that
`
`more than one will remain pending as November 2 approaches. Often these later
`
`cases are rescheduled for a later available month.
`
`Moreover, given the inevitability of further COVID-19 outbreaks, further
`
`scheduling issues cannot be ruled out, as experts have professed that they are indeed
`
`likely to arise. APPLE-1047, 1 (“Fauci says second wave of coronavirus is
`
`‘inevitable’”). Fintiv factor 2 therefore favors institution.
`
`Fintiv Factor 3: Seven’s Conduct Dictated the Timing of Apple’s
`Petitions, which Outweighs the Forced Investment in Litigation
`In its complaint, Seven asserted sixteen patents, which contain over five-
`
`hundred fifty claims. Ex. 1052. Seven did not narrow the number of patents and
`

`
`5
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`claims it was asserting against Apple until January 21, 2020, and even then, it
`
`continued to assert seventy-five claims across sixteen patents.2 Ex. 1048, 1.
`
`Apple filed fourteen of its petitions before this initial identification of asserted
`
`claims, and six of the remaining seven within one month of it. It is no wonder that
`
`Apple needed the time taken to prepare its twenty-one petitions, as it was faced with
`
`the immense burden of understanding the five-hundred fifty claims contained in
`
`these patents and the potential prior art that might be relevant to them. See
`
`Amazon.com, Inc. v. Customplay, LLC, IPR2018-01498, Pap. 13, 8-9 (finding that
`
`waiting “to better understand the asserted claims, the bases for the infringement
`
`allegations … and to identify relevant prior art” should not weigh in favor of
`
`discretionary denial); 157 Cong. Rec. S5429 (Sept. 8, 2011) (Sen. Kyl) (“High-
`
`technology companies … are often sued by defendants asserting multiple patents
`
`with large numbers of vague claims …. [I]t is important that the section 315(b)
`
`                                                            
`2 It is highly unlikely that Seven would attempt to try more than three or four of the
`
`remaining patents before a jury, but if Seven were to eventually reassert any of the
`
`sixteen patents included in Seven’s initial complaint that it subsequently dropped,
`
`Apple would face the 315(b) time bar if then seeking to challenge those patents.
`
`For at least this reason, discretionary denial of the pending Petition would invite
`
`further litigation.
`

`
`6
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`deadline afford defendants a reasonable opportunity to identify and understand the
`
`patent claims that are relevant to the litigation”).
`
`Indeed, it was not until November 27, 2019, just days before the first of
`
`Apple’s petitions were filed, that Seven disclosed its “Preliminary Claim
`
`Construction and Extrinsic Evidence” providing Apple one of its first insights into
`
`how Seven actually read the many disputed claim terms of these patents. Ex. 1049.
`
`In this context, it is laudable that Apple was able to muster the resources necessary
`
`to file twenty-one petitions nearly two months before the end of the statutory period
`
`provided by Congress under § 315(b). Mylan Pharma. Inc. v. Sanofi-Aventis
`
`Deutschland GMBH, IPR2018-01680, Pap. 22, 18 (PTAB Apr. 3, 2019) (finding
`
`that petition filed two months before bar date is “well within the timeframe allowed
`
`by statute, weighing heavily in [petitioner’s] favor”).
`
`Further, Apple’s substantial investment in these twenty-one petitions should
`
`counterbalance—and frankly outweigh—the resources invested in the co-pending
`
`litigation. Apple has paid at least $325,500 to the USPTO in fees for its twenty-one
`
`petitions, not even accounting for the far greater attorney and expert fees required to
`
`prepare those petitions. See 37 C.F.R. 42.15(a) (1). It would be unjust to consider
`
`resources expended in District Court (equally by both parties), without considering
`
`Apple resources expended to prepare the petitions that would be irretrievably lost
`

`
`7
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`without consideration on the merits, in addition to the extensive expenses that will
`
`follow in co-pending litigation for which significant milestones exist.
`
`Fintiv Factor 4: The Petition Raises Unique Issues that will Not be
`Resolved in District Court
`Consistent with Congressional intent and the goals expressed in NHK and
`
`Fintiv, Apple asks the Board to consider the unique challenges raised in the Petition.
`
`See Fintiv, 5, 13-14; Intel, 11. Apple has eliminated any risk of duplicated effort in
`
`assessing prior art by stipulating to counsel for Seven that, if the Board institutes the
`
`pending Petition, Apple will not pursue district court invalidity challenges based on
`
`the pending Petition’s asserted ground. APPLE-1045, 1. Even if the issue of the
`
`’550 patent’s written description support is eventually tried at the district court, the
`
`underlying invalidity challenge (i.e., obviousness based on Fiatal-Prabu-Bernard)
`
`will not. Indeed, the overwhelming share of the Petition is directed specifically to
`
`this prior art ground (41 pages) rather than the effective filing date issue (13 pages).
`
`Further, the District Court will not address the validity of a substantial number of
`
`the claims challenged by the Petition (see APPLE-1042)3, or apply the same
`
`evidentiary standard that Congress required the Board to apply, even assuming that
`
`                                                            
`3 Apple will continue to innovate new products, and desires Board review of the
`
`additional claims to prevent future assertion by Seven in potential serial litigation.
`

`
`8
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`the District Court will address validity at all, which is presently unknowable given
`
`the potential for stay.
`
`In short, the grounds proposed in the pending Petition are unique, and will
`
`not be addressed in Apple’s co-pending district court litigation. For at least that
`
`reason, there is no basis for discretionary denial under NHK, and Fintiv factor 4
`
`favors institution. See NHK, 19-20; Oticon Medical AB et. al. v. Cochlear Ltd.,
`
`IPR2019-00975 Pap. 15, 24 (PTAB Oct. 16, 2019) (precedential); Ericsson v.
`
`Intellectual Ventures II, IPR2018-01689 Pap. 15, 53-57 (PTAB Apr. 16 2019).
`
`Fintiv Factor 5: Apple’s Petition Enables the Board to Resolve
`Invalidity of Claims that might Otherwise be Reasserted
`Given the rapid pace of technological advancement and product development
`
`made possible through the efforts of the technology companies that Seven
`
`traditionally targets, Seven’s willingness to serially assert varying sets of claims
`
`from previously litigated patents4 presents an ongoing threat to Apple and to other
`
`                                                            
`4 For example, Seven previously asserted “at least claim 10” of U.S. Patent No.
`
`9,516,127 (“’127 Patent”) against Samsung, Google, and ZTE. APPLE-1051, 18,
`
`23, 42. Samsung and Google successfully petitioned for IPR, but in each proceeding
`
`jointly moved for termination after settlement. See, e.g., Samsung Electr. Co., Ltd.
`

`
`9
`
`

`

`Proceeding No.: IPR2020-00425
`Attorney Docket: 39521-0075IP1
`technology companies that will not be directly resolved in Apple’s District Court
`
`litigation. Next Caller Inc. v. TrustID, Inc., IPR2019-00961, 14 (PTAB Oct. 16,
`
`2019). For at least this reason, Apple’s status as both Petitioner and defendant is, at
`
`worst, a neutral factor. Taking the relevant circumstances into account, institution
`
`would serve overall efficiency and integrity, by enabling the Board to determine the
`
`invalidity of claims that Seven might otherwise assert against others in the future.
`
`Fintiv Factor 6: Other Circumstances Support Institution
`As the Fintiv panel noted, “if the merits of a ground raised in the petition seem
`
`particularly strong … the institution of a trial may serve the interest of overall system
`
`efficiency and integrity ….” Fintiv, 14-15. The present Petition is indeed
`
`particularly strong considering that the primary reference (Fiatal) shares an identical
`
`specification to the ’550 patent itself. Fintiv factor 6 therefore favors institution.
`
`Even if one were to assume that the currently scheduled trial date is relevant
`
`(and it is not, since the trial docket is full and the pending Petition’s grounds are
`
`unique), the Fintiv factors favor institution. Apple respectfully submits that
`
`discretionary denial would be neither appropriate nor equitable.
`
`                                                            
`v. Seven Networks, LLC, IPR2018-01106, Paps. 29, 30. Seven now asserts a non-
`
`overlapping subset of ’127 Patent claims against Apple. APPLE-1052, 54.
