In Greene’s Energy Group, LLC v. Oil States Energer Services, LLC, IPR2014-00216, Paper 7, March 3, 2014, the Board reminded the patent owner that evidence in support of a preliminaryresponse may be submitted, provided that it does not constitute new testimonial evidence.  37 C.F.R. § 42.107(c). The Patent Owner may submit new testimony with Patent Owner’s full response to the Petition.  The Board also cautioned that if a preliminary response is accompanied by a motion to seal, any redacted information cannot be utilized in the Board’s decision to institute a proceeding. Thus the patent owner should narrowly tailor any redactions to the information that is confidential, as well as consider other ways of presenting the confidential information that would not require redaction.  Documents cannot be submitted under seal until a  protective order preserving the confidentiality of designated information is submitted.  37 C.F.R. §§ 42.54-55.
