`
`Dear Board,
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.108(c), Pe(cid:415)(cid:415)oner Sony Electronics Inc. (“Sony”) respec(cid:414)ully requests
`authoriza(cid:415)on to file a reply of no more than 3 pages to Patent Owner’s Preliminary Response
`(“POPR”) in the above‐cap(cid:415)oned case. Patent Owner Jawbone Innova(cid:415)ons, LLC (“Jawbone”) has
`used its POPR, in part, to respond to the Board’s comment in an earlier Amazon v. Jawbone IPR
`(involving the same patent claims and prior art) that Hussian sufficiently established disclosure
`of “automa(cid:415)cally selec(cid:415)ng a denoising method appropriate to data of at least one frequency
`sub‐band” of limita(cid:415)on 1[f]. (IPR2023‐00275, Paper 10 at 19.) The POPR in the present case
`includes discussions mischaracterizing Sony’s pe(cid:415)(cid:415)on, the accompanying declara(cid:415)on, and
`Hussain’s disclosure and other issues rela(cid:415)ng to the Board’s comments. (Paper 8, at 6‐9 and 12‐
`16.) As a ma(cid:425)er of fundamental fairness, Sony requests that it be given the opportunity to
`respond briefly to those discussions prior to a decision on ins(cid:415)tu(cid:415)on, given that Jawbone has
`already had the opportunity to do so. Sony thus maintains that good cause exists for a reply.
`
`On November 15 and 16, 2023, the undersigned no(cid:415)fied Jawbone of its intent to seek leave
`from the Board and requested Jawbone’s counsel consent to Sony’s proposed reply based on
`the good cause discussed above. Jawbone responded it would not consent but that if Sony’s
`request is approved, Jawbone requests a corresponding sur‐reply of equal length.
`
`Sony wishes to make the Board aware that it is also seeking replies in the following co‐pending
`Sony v. Jawbone IPRs: IPR2023‐01117 (Cls. 14‐42, US Patent 8,321,213); IPR2023‐01118 (Cls. 1‐
`13, US Patent 8,321,213); IPR2023‐01119 (US Patent 7,246,058); IPR2023‐01153 (US Patent
`11,122,357); IPR2023‐01166 (US Patent 8,019,091); IPR2023‐01176 (Cls. 29‐44, US Patent
`8,326,611); IPR2023‐01177 (Cls. 1‐28, US Patent 8,326,611); and IPR2023‐01228 (Cls. 1‐22, 29‐
`40, US Patent 8,503,691).
`
`Respec(cid:414)ully submi(cid:425)ed,
