`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1) and the Federal Rules of Evidence
`
`
`
` U.S. Patent No. 9,591,104
`
`(“FRE”), Juniper Networks, Inc. (“Petitioner”) hereby objects to the admissibility
`
`of the exhibit listed below. These objections are timely under 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 42.64(b)(1) because they are being filed within ten (10) business days of service
`
`of the decision to institute trial on August 10, 2020.
`
`Petitioner reserves the right to present further objections to this or additional
`
`exhibits submitted by Patent Owner, as allowed by any applicable rules or other

`
`Objection(s)
`
`Exhibit 2013 is an incomplete part
`of a deposition transcript whose
`entirety is not of record in this
`proceeding. It is therefore
`inadmissible.
`
`The relevance and probative value
`of Exhibit 2013 cannot be
`determined because the exhibit is a
`limited and incomplete 10-page
`excerpt of a deposition in a district
`court proceeding between Implicit
`and a third party whose transcript
`apparently contained at least 237
`pages. The full transcript is not of

`
`record in this proceeding. It is
`therefore inadmissible.
`
`To any extent that Dr. Decasper's
`testimony relies upon or relates to
`information for which he has no
`personal knowledge—and this
`extent cannot be assessed from the
`limited and incomplete portions
`filed in this proceeding—those
`portions of his testimony are
`inadmissible.
`
`To any extent that Dr. Decasper's
`testimony is offered as lay or expert
`opinion—and this extent cannot be
`assessed from the limited and
`incomplete portions filed in this
`proceeding—those portions of his
`testimony may be inadmissible, for
`example, for failure to comply with
`Fed. R. Evid. 701 and 702.
`
`To any extent that Dr. Decasper's
`testimony relies upon or relates to
`hearsay—and this extent cannot be
`assessed from the limited and
`incomplete portions filed in this
`proceeding—those portions of his
`testimony are inadmissible if used
`to prove the truth of the matter
`asserted.
`
`To any extent that Dr. Decasper
`relies on unauthenticated
`evidence—and this extent cannot be
`assessed from the limited and
`incomplete portions filed in this
`
