QADRI et al. v. BEYERS et al. v. BATLOGG et al. - Page 73




         Interference No. 101,981                                                    



         801(d)(1)(B), Federal Rules of Evidence.                                    
                    Beyers states in his motion that BX-16 and BX-17 are             
         objected to as totally irrelevant because they deal with                    
         materials which are different from those of the present                     
         invention.  The motion would have been denied as to BX-16 and BX-           
         17.  As noted by Batlogg in his opposition, the exhibits are                
         relevant to the meaning of the phrase "allowed to cool to room              
         temperature."  The meaning of the phrase is important with regard           
         to the sufficiency under 35 U.S.C. § 112 of the Batlogg                     
         application.                                                                
              Beyers requests that Batlogg exhibit BX-11 be suppressed               
         because it "has no foundation laid for it."  Batlogg argues in              
         opposition that BX-11 is a published article that was introduced            
         at the party Beyers’ request.  Beyers also objects to BX-13 on              
         the ground that "no foundation has been laid for it."  Batlogg              
         exhibit BX-13 includes a letter from Walsh, counsel for Beyers,             
         to McDonnell, with a copy to counsel for counsel for Batlogg, and           
         an X-ray pattern.  Beyers finally objects to BX-18, an article              
         from the New York Times, as being hearsay, irrelevant and non-              
         probative.  Under other circumstances, the motion would have been           
         denied on these grounds with respect to these exhibits because              
         they would bear on, for example, the issue of sufficiency under             

                                         73
