`ORDER
`Conduct of the Proceeding
`37 C.F.R. § 42.5
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1 This Order addresses an issue common to both of the above-referenced
`proceedings. The parties are not permitted to use this caption unless
`authorized by the Board.
`
`
`
`IPR2023-00070 (Patent 7,541,179 B2)
`IPR2023-00074 (Patent 8,058,061 B2)
`
`
`Patent Owner’s Motions for pro hac vice admission of Mary Jean Kim
`and declarations in support thereof in the above-identified cases are not in
`condition for grant. The declarations (Ex. 2085) filed to support the Motions
`for admission pro hac vice in the subject cases do not comply with the
`requirements set forth in Unified Patents, Inc. v. Parallel Iron, LLC,
`Case IPR2013-00639, Paper 7 (PTAB Oct. 15, 2013) (“Unified Patents”).
`See Paper 3, 2 (directing parties to file motions for admission pro hac vice in
`accordance with the Unified Patents order). Specifically, the declarations do
`not list other USPTO proceedings for which Mary Jean Kim has applied for
`admission pro hac vice in the last three years. See Unified Patents, Paper 7,
`at 3. Patent Owner must correct these deficiencies by filing corrected
`declarations (as an exhibit in each of the cases) within 10 business days, or
`the Motions will be dismissed.2
`Additionally, Powers of Attorney in accordance with 37 C.F.R.
`§ 42.10(b) have not been submitted for Mary Jean Kim. Patent Owner must
`correct these deficiencies by filing a Power of Attorney for Mary Jean Kim
`in each of the cases within 10 business days.
`
`It is
`
`SO ORDERED.
`
`
`
`
`2 Patent Owner is advised to file corrected declarations only and not
`corrected motions for pro hac vice admission, as that would require Patent
`Owner to pay another fee for filing such motions.
