`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 6 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`For the reasons stated in Appellant Uniloc’s Opening Brief (“Uniloc Br.”), the
`
`Board erred in determining Appellee Apple met its burden to prove the challenged
`
`claims of the ’759 patent are unpatentable. Uniloc submits this reply to briefly
`
`respond to issues raised in Apple’s Response Brief (“Apple Br.”) particularly related
`
`to the “displaying real-time data” limitations recited in the claims, and to the brief
`
`filed for Intervenor, Director of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“Intervenor
`
`Br.”).
`
`ARGUMENT
`
`I. Uniloc’s arguments as to the scope of claims were presented to the Board.
`
`Apple incorrectly asserts that “Uniloc improperly seeks to circumvent the
`
`Board’s fact-finding by requesting further claim construction,” and that “Uniloc did
`
`not argue claim construction before the Board.” Apple Br. 24. Apple’s assertions are
`
`false.
`
`In Patent Owner’s Response filed with the Board, the first several pages of
`
`Uniloc’s argument as to Fry and Newell explains how the Board’s Institution
`
`Decision misconstrues the claims, despite stating that it adopted this Court’s
`
`construction in Paragon Solutions, LLC v. Timex Corp., 566 F.3d 1075 (Fed. Cir.
`
`2009). See Appx279-285. For example, Uniloc argued, as it does on appeal:
`
`The Federal Circuit did not, however, state that its construction
`“displaying data without intentional delay” only excludes delay arising
`from “storing [GPS data] for later review.” Had the Court intended to
`
`
`
`1
`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 7 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`so limit the negative aspect of its construction (i.e., “without intentional
`delay”), and thereby significantly broaden claim scope, surely the Court
`would have made that explicit. The Court did not. The only
`qualification expressed in the construction itself is the instructive
`phrase “given the processing limitations of the system and the time
`required to accurately measure the data [to be displayed].” EX1023, at
`14. Thus, while the intrinsic evidence reveals that one example form of
`“intentional delay” may arise where GPS data is stored for later review,
`nothing in the Court’s opinion suggests that is the only possible
`“intentional delay” excluded by the Court’s construction of the “real-
`time” claim language
`
`Appx280. Accordingly, despite Uniloc basing its response to the Petition on this
`
`Court’s construction as expressed in Paragon, there remained a dispute as to the
`
`construction of “displaying data without intentional delay” that the Board was
`
`required to resolve.
`
`As explained in Uniloc’s Opening Brief, Uniloc Br. 13-28, the Board
`
`addressed the claim construction dispute by incorrectly determining that any data
`
`collection activity can be considered “processing” as expressed in Paragon, such
`
`that it does not count as “intentional delay,” and also incorrectly determined that the
`
`only relevant “intentional delay” is storing for later review after the activity is over.
`
`See Appx18-23. It is Apple that improperly seeks to frame the dispute as one of
`
`fact-finding to avoid this Court’s de novo review of the Board’s incorrect
`
`interpretation of “displaying without intentional delay.”
`
`II. Apple ignores the language of the claim.
`
`Apple argues that “Uniloc unduly focuses on the language of the claim
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 8 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`construction instead of the claim itself and the context in which it was construed.”
`
`Apple Br. 24. It is Apple, however, that is ignoring the claim language. As
`
`explained in Uniloc’s Opening Brief (pp. 22-23), claim 1 recites the claimed “data”
`
`in the specific context of “data provided by said electronic positioning device and
`
`said physiological monitor.” In other words, the “data” that must be displayed in
`
`“real time” (i.e., “without intentional delay”) is specifically claimed as that which is
`
`provided by “said electronic positioning device and said physiological monitor.”
`
`Accordingly, unrelated steps, even if they could be considered “system processing,”
`
`that would intentionally delay displaying the specifically-claimed “data” cannot
`
`reasonably be disregarded as “processing limitations of the system and the time
`
`required to accurately measure the data” as claimed.
`
`III. Fry teaches intentional delay in displaying the claimed data.
`
`Apple does not dispute that Fry teaches several steps that take priority over
`
`displaying the claimed GPS data. As Patent Owner explained in its Response,
`
`Appx279-285, in Fry’s Figure 3 the “numerous, higher-priority processing blocks
`
`that Fry purposefully implements before ultimately tending to its ‘least critical
`
`function’ (displaying the GPS data) cannot reasonably be considered to be
`
`implemented ‘without intentional delay,’ as required under the construction adopted
`
`by the Board,” Appx284. Apple’s arguments relate to whether the claim phrase
`
`“displaying real-time data provided by said electronic positioning device and said
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 9 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`physiological monitor” could include deliberate collection of other data or
`
`performance of other steps prior to displaying the recited data. See Apple Br. 30-32.
`
`For example, Apple criticizes Uniloc’s observation that Fry describes display as the
`
`least critical function, arguing that this simply relates to Fry’s “order of operations.”
`
`Apple Br. 31. But Fry’s “order of operations” is relevant to whether the claimed data
`
`is displayed without intentional delay, because interjecting additional operations in
`
`their prescribed order results in delay in the claimed displaying. Apple fails to
`
`explain how Fry could possibly teach no intentional delay in display of the claimed
`
`data when the phrase “displaying real-time data provided by said electronic
`
`positioning device and said physiological monitor” is properly interpreted.
`
`IV. The Board’s findings as to Vock rely on its incorrect interpretation of the
`“displaying real-time data” limitations.
`
`Apple’s Response Brief obfuscates the purported basis for the Board’s
`
`determination that Vock teaches “a display unit for displaying real-time data
`
`provided by said electronic positioning device and said physiological monitor,” as
`
`recited in the claims. The Board’s determination, however, is demonstrably
`
`premised on interpreting this limitation merely to require that the data is displayed
`
`during the activity. As explained in Uniloc’s Opening Brief and herein, such an
`
`interpretation is incorrect.
`
`The Board’s decision refers to the display unit limitation beginning at the first
`
`full paragraph of page 47 (Appx47). The decision states that Petitioner notes that
`
`
`
`4
`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 10 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`Vock’s watch 744 in Figure 27 allows the user “to monitor performance data in near-
`
`real time.” Appx47 (emphasis omitted). The decision states “Petitioner also notes
`
`that Vock discloses that its sensing unit ‘can provide real-time performance data to
`
`the user, via a connected display or via a data unit.’” Id. The decision then recounts
`
`Petitioner’s argument that a person of ordinary skill in the art would have recognized
`
`that the sensing unit of Vock’s Figure 27 embodiment includes a GPS receiver and
`
`that it would have been obvious to implement features described in the Figure 27 or
`
`Figure 28 embodiment in a single system. Appx47-48. This argument is important
`
`to Petitioner’s challenge because Petitioner and the Board rely on Figure 28 for the
`
`data acquisition unit recited earlier in the claim. See Appx46.
`
`In explaining why it is not persuaded by Uniloc’s arguments, the Board’s
`
`decision “note[s] that Vock appears to use ‘real-time’ and ‘near real time’
`
`interchangeably to indicate presentation of performance data to the user during the
`
`performance of the associated activity.” Appx52. The Board states that “Vock’s
`
`discussion of ‘near-real time’ data, therefore, is consistent with the construction of
`
`‘displaying real-time data’ discussed in section II.C.1 above.” Appx53. The Board
`
`thus makes clear that it interprets both “real-time” and “near-real time” in Vock to
`
`mean that the performance data is presented to the user during the performance of
`
`the associated activity. This is insufficient to meet the interpretation adopted by the
`
`Board, which includes the negative limitation that the data is displayed without
`
`
`
`5
`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 11 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`intentional delay. Paragon, 566 F.3d at 1092–93 (construing “displaying real-time
`
`data,” as used in the claims of this case, as “displaying data without intentional delay,
`
`given the processing limitations of the system and the time required to accurately
`
`measure the data”).
`
`In addition, even if “real time” or “near real time” in Vock satisfied the
`
`construction given by this Court in Paragon, as Uniloc observed in its Opening
`
`Brief, there is no merit to the speculative conclusion in the Petition that a POSITA
`
`would have been motivated to combine disparate embodiments within Vock.
`
`Pointing to the admittedly distinct embodiments of Figures 27 and 28 of Vock,
`
`Petitioner argues “a PHOSITA would understand that it would have been obvious to
`
`implement features described with respect to either embodiment in a single system.”
`
`Appx196. The Board determines that because Figure 27 of Vock teaches monitoring
`
`performance data in near-real time, that the data from the GPS receiver in Figure 28
`
`must also be monitored in “near-real time.” See Appx53-54. The Board states that
`
`watch 810 and watch 744 are described “in similar terms,” Appx 54, but the Board’s
`
`decision ignores that the primary difference in description is the absence of the GPS
`
`data being described as monitored in near-real time. The Board also misreads Vock’s
`
`use of the phrase “such as discussed herein.” The Board states that “by disclosing
`
`that data is transmitted ‘such as discussed herein,’ Vock further likens watch 810 to
`
`the previously-discussed watch 744.” Appx54. But Vock’s use of “such as discussed
`
`
`
`6
`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 12 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`herein” clearly refers to other displays or data units, or to the base station, and not to
`
`the manner of near-real time monitoring disclosed in connection with Figure 27. See
`
`Appx858 (“A data transmit section 816 (e.g., the section 22, FIG. 1A) transmits data
`
`via an antenna 816a (or other technique), as desired, to the watch 810 or to other
`
`displays or data units, or to the base station, such as discussed herein.” (emphasis
`
`added)). There is simply no teaching that the GPS data in Figure 28 can be monitored
`
`in near-real time. Petitioner and the Board lack substantial evidence and engage in
`
`hindsight reasoning in casually suggesting everything in Vock must be “real-time.”
`
`V. Uniloc’s Constitutional Challenge is timely.
`
`Apple and the Intervenor argue that by not raising an Appointments Clause
`
`challenge before the agency, Uniloc forfeited its Appointments Clause challenge.
`
`The argument strains credulity under the circumstances of this case.
`
`The Board has previously “declin[ed] to consider . . . constitutional
`
`challenge[s] as, generally, ‘administrative agencies do not have jurisdiction to
`
`decide the constitutionality of congressional enactments.’” Square, Inc. Unwired
`
`Planet LLC, Case IPR2014-01165, Paper 32 at 25 (PTAB Oct. 30, 2015) (quoting
`
`Riggin v. Office of Senate Fair Emp’t Practices, 61 F.3d 1563, 1569 (Fed. Cir.
`
`1995)). Indeed, the Board has relied on the Square case in not reviewing the
`
`Appointments Clause issue presented by Uniloc in another case, Apple Inc. v.
`
`Uniloc 2017 LLC, Case IPR2018-00884, Paper 20 at 25 (PTAB Sept. 18, 2019).
`
`
`

`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 13 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`Based on the merits of the Board’s determinations in Square and Apple, as well as
`
`the inequity of the Patent Office changing position now on the same issue in this
`
`case, the “forfeiture” argument should be rejected.
`
`In re DBC, 545 F.3d 1373 (Fed. Cir. 2008), does not suggest that this Court
`
`has ruled that it will not consider an Appointments Clause challenge to the statutory
`
`method of administrative patent judges’ appointment raised for the first time on
`
`appeal unless the appellant showed that the situation was “exceptional.” In re DBC
`
`is distinguishable, and the present case is exceptional, at least because, as noted in
`
`the Arthrex panel decision, 941 F.3d 1320 (Fed. Cir. 2019), In re DBC dealt with
`
`an appointments issue that could have been remedied by assignment to other
`
`administrative patent judges that were not argued to have been unconstitutionally
`
`appointed and Congress had taken remedial action in that case. As in Arthrex,
`
`“[n]o such remedial action has been taken in this case and the Board could not have
`
`corrected the problem.” Arthrex, 941 F.3d at 1327. The Arthrex Court correctly
`
`decided that “[b]ecause the Secretary continues to have the power to appoint APJs
`
`and those APJs continue to decide patentability in inter partes review, we conclude
`
`that it is appropriate for this court to exercise its discretion to decide the
`
`Appointments Clause challenge here.” Id. The Board issued its final written
`
`decision in the IPRs on appeal here prior to the Arthrex decision, and Uniloc raised
`
`the issue here prior to the filing of its opening appeal brief.
`
`
`
`8
`
`

`

`Case: 19-2389 Document: 37 Page: 14 Filed: 06/19/2020
`
`In addition, even if Apple and the Intervenor were correct that Uniloc should
`
`have raised this Appointments Clause issue before the Board, the Arthrex decision
`
`is an intervening change in law that justifies Uniloc raising the issue for the first
`
`time on appeal. “[A] party does not waive an argument that arises from a
`
`significant change in law during the pendency of an appeal.” BioDelivery Science
`
`Int’l, Inc. v. Aquestive Therapeutics, Inc., 898 F.3d 1205, 1208–09 (Fed. Cir. 2018)
`
`(citation omitted); see also Hormel v. Helvering, 312 U.S. 552, 558–59 (1941)
`
`(waiver does not apply in “those [cases] in which there have been judicial
`
`interpretations of existing law after decision below and pending appeal—
`
`interpretations which if applied might have materially altered the result”). As this
`
`Court has emphasized, “a sufficiently sharp change of law sometimes is a ground
`
`for permitting a party to advance a position that it did not advance earlier in the
`
`proceeding when the law at the time was strongly enough against that position.” In
`
`re Micron Tech., Inc., 875 F.3d 1091 (Fed. Cir. 2017).
`
`Accordingly, Uniloc’s constitutional challenge is timely.
`
`CONCLUSION
`
`For the foregoing reasons, and those provided in Uniloc’s opening brief, the
`
`Board’s judgment should be reversed, or at least vacated and remanded. The
`
`Board’s decision should also be vacated and this appeal dismissed because APJs
`
`are unconstitutionally appointed principal officers. In light of Arthrex, Patent
