`
`
`
`Pursuant to Paragraph 2 of the Court’s Guidelines for Trial and Final Pretrial Conference
`
`in Civil Jury Cases, plaintiff Finjan, Inc. (“Finjan”) and defendant Juniper Networks, Inc.
`
`(“Juniper”) (collectively, “Parties”) hereby submit this Joint Proposed Final Pretrial Order.
`
`I.
`
`THE PARTIES
`The Parties to this action are Finjan, a Delaware corporation with its principal place of
`
`business at 2000 University Ave., Ste. 600, East Palo Alto, California 94303, and Juniper, a
`
`Delaware corporation with its principal place of business at 1133 Innovation Way, Sunnyvale,
`
`California 94089.
`
`II.
`
`SUBSTANCE OF THE CLAIMS AND DEFENSES
`This is an action for patent infringement arising under the Patent Act, 35 U.S.C. § 101 et.
`
`seq. The Court has original jurisdiction over this controversy pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and
`
`1338(a). In the case at large, pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 271(a), Finjan alleges that Juniper directly
`
`infringes the following Finjan patents: U.S. Patent No. 6,154,844 (“the ’844 patent”); U.S. Patent
`
`No. 6,804,780 (“the ’780 patent”); U.S. Patent No. 7,418,731 (“the ’731 patent”); U.S. Patent No.
`
`7,613,926 (“the ’926 Patent”); U.S. Patent No. 7,647,633 (“the ’633 Patent”); U.S. Patent No.
`
`8,141,154 (“the ’154 Patent”); U.S. Patent No. 8,677,494 (“the ’494 Patent”). Collectively, these
`
`patents are referred to as the “Asserted Patents.” However, as described below, the trial set for
`
`December 10, 2018 only concerns the ’494 Patent (the “’494 Trial”). The parties agree to meet
`
`and confer in good faith to determine if the issues can be further narrowed for trial.
`
`Finjan’s Position
`
`By its February 23, 2018 Order, the Court instituted early summary judgment proceedings
`
`in this action. Dkt. 35. Specifically, the Court ordered: “By JUNE 7, 2018, each side shall select
`
`one asserted claim — presumably the strongest case for infringement and the strongest case for
`
`noninfringement or invalidity, respectively — and file an early motion for summary judgment on
`
`that claim…” Pursuant to this order, Finjan selected Claim 10 of the ‘494 Patent (“Claim 10”).
`
`Claim 10 reads as follows:
`
`A system for managing Downloadables, comprising:
`a receiver for receiving an incoming Downloadable;

`
`
`
`a Downloadable scanner coupled with said receiver, for deriving
`security profile data for the Downloadable, including a list of
`suspicious computer operations that may be attempted by the
`Downloadable; and
`a database manager coupled with said Downloadable scanner, for
`storing the Downloadable security profile data in a database.
`On August 31, 2018, the Court granted in part Finjan’s motion for summary judgment of
`
`infringement of Claim 10 of the ‘494 Patent. Dkt. 189. Specifically, the Court found that
`
`“(1) Juniper’s SRX Gateways used in combination with Sky ATP; and (2) Sky ATP alone” meet
`
`the first two limitations of Claim 10, but found factual disputes exist for “whether the accused
`
`system includes a ‘database’ within the meaning of Claim 10.” Dkt. 189 at 16. The Court held:
`
`“Factual disputes regarding whether ResultsDB constitutes a ‘database’ — either literally or
`
`under the doctrine of equivalents — while thin, preclude a determination one way or the other on
`
`the record provided with the degree of certainty required for summary judgment, particularly
`
`when viewing the record in light most favorable to Juniper. This issue will have to be tried to a
`
`jury.”
`
`The Court also found the following:
`1.
`
`The Court found that the Accused Products meet the preamble of Claim 10 of the
`
`‘494 Patent, which reads “A system for managing Downloadables, comprising.”
`
`2.
`
`The Court found that the Accused Products meet the first element of Claim 10 of
`
`the ‘494 Patent, which reads “a receiver for receiving an incoming
`
`Downloadable.”
`
`3.
`
`The Court found that the Accused Products meet the second element of Claim 10
`
`of the ‘494 Patent, which reads “a Downloadable scanner coupled with said
`
`receiver, for deriving security profile data for the Downloadable, including a list of
`
`suspicious computer operations that may be attempted by the Downloadable.”
`
`4.
`
`The Court found that except for whether there was a “database,” the Accused
`
`Products meet the third element of Claim 10 of the ‘494 Patent, which reads “a
`
`database manager coupled with said Downloadable scanner for storing the

`
`
`
`Downloadable security profile data in a database,” limitation of the third element
`
`of Claim 10 of the ‘494 Patent.
`
`5.
`
`The Court found that “Sky ATP stores results in three different storage solutions
`
`provided by Amazon: (1) DynamoDB, (2) S3, and (3) MySQL (Dkt. No. 126 at
`
`26). ResultsDB management is an interface overlaying these three storage
`
`components.”
`
`The Court, therefore, ordered a trial on four issues related to Finjan’s motion for summary
`
`judgment of infringement of Claim 10, to include: “(1) whether the accused products meet the
`
`‘database’ limitation; (2) Juniper’s Section 101 invalidity defense; (3) Juniper’s Section 287
`
`defense on damages; and (4) the extent of damages.” Dkt. 189.
`
`Finjan provided Juniper notice of the ‘494 Patent and that Juniper’s SRX Gateway in
`
`combination with Sky ATP and Sky ATP alone infringed the ‘494 Patent since at least November
`
`24, 2015.
`
`Juniper’s Position
`
`By its February 23, 2018 Order, the Court instituted early summary judgment proceedings
`
`in this action. Dkt. 35. Specifically, the Court ordered: “By JUNE 7, 2018, each side shall select
`
`one asserted claim — presumably the strongest case for infringement and the strongest case for
`
`noninfringement or invalidity, respectively — and file an early motion for summary judgment on
`
`that claim…” Pursuant to this order, Juniper selected Claim 1 of the ’780 Patent (“Claim 1”).
`
`Claim 1 reads as follows:
`
`A computer-based method for generating a Downloadable ID to identify a Downloadable,
`comprising:
`
`obtaining a Downloadable that includes one or more references to
`software components required to be executed by the Downloadable;
`
`fetching at least one software component identified by the one or
`more references; and
`
`performing a hashing function on the Downloadable and the fetched
`software components to generate a Downloadable ID.
`On August 9, 2018, the Court granted in full Juniper’s motion for summary judgment of non-
`
`infringement. Dkt. 180. Specifically, the Court found that “Finjan has not shown that the SRX

`
`
`
`and Sky ATP perform a hashing function on the downloadable together with its fetched software
`
`components.” Dkt. 180 at 10.
`
`Also pursuant to the Court’s February 23, 2018 Order, Finjan selected Claim 10 of the
`
`‘494 Patent (“Claim 10”). Claim 10 reads as follows:
`
`A system for managing Downloadables, comprising:
`
`receiver for receiving an incoming Downloadable;
`
`a Downloadable scanner coupled with said receiver, for deriving
`security profile data for the Downloadable, including a list of
`suspicious computer operations that may be attempted by the
`Downloadable; and
`
`a database manager coupled with said Downloadable scanner, for
`storing the Downloadable security profile data in a database.
`On August 31, 2018, the Court found that factual disputes preclude fully granting Finjan’s motion
`
`for summary judgment of infringement of Claim 10 of the ‘494 Patent. Dkt. 189. Specifically,
`
`the Court stated: “Factual disputes regarding whether ResultsDB constitutes a ‘database’ — either
`
`literally or under the doctrine of equivalents — while thin, preclude a determination one way or
`
`the other on the record provided with the degree of certainty required for summary judgment,
`
`particularly when viewing the record in light most favorable to Juniper. This issue will have to be
`
`tried to a jury.”
`
`Regarding Juniper’s 35 U.S.C. § 101 invalidity argument, the Court found that “Claim 10
`
`of the ’494 Patent does not itself recite any step beyond the mere identification of suspicious
`
`operations within a received Downloadable (and then storing the information somewhere). It
`
`stops short of claiming any non-fundamental, routine step, such as comparing the security profile
`
`with the access control list or any kind of protective measure. As such, Claim 10 is directed to an
`
`abstract idea rather than an improvement on computer functionality.” Dkt. 189 at 19. The Court
`
`further held that “[a]t this juncture, this order will postpone on reaching the issue of whether
`
`Claim 10 survives under Alice step two. Rather, the Court will wait to have the benefit of the trial
`
`record before determining whether Claim 10 contains an inventive concept such that it is patent
`
`eligible.” Dkt. 189 at 19.

`

`Case 3:17-cv-05659-WHA Document 262 Filed 11/27/18 Page 6 of 16
`
`
`
`On Juniper’s 35 U.S.C. § 287’s argument, the Court stated “this order declines to reach
`
`the issue of marking on Finjan’s motion for summary judgment of infringement. A jury will have
`
`to decide.” Dkt. 189 at 20.
`
`The Court, therefore, ordered a trial on four issues related to Finjan’s motion for summary
`
`judgment of infringement of Claim 10, to include: “(1) whether the accused products meet the
`
`‘database’ limitation; (2) Juniper’s Section 101 invalidity defense; (3) Juniper’s Section 287
`
`defense on damages; and (4) the extent of damages.” Dkt. 189.
`
`III.
`
`STATEMENT OF ALL RELIEF SOUGHT
`Finjan’s Position
`
`For the purposes of this ’494 Trial, Finjan seeks a judgment that Juniper infringes
`
`Claim 10, that Claim 10 is valid, and an award of monetary damages for Juniper’s patent
`infringement in an amount no less than a reasonable royalty.1 Finjan also seeks prejudgment and
`post-judgment interest. Finjan’s Amended Complaint and Answer to Juniper’s Counterclaims
`
`identifies the following points of relief regarding Claim 10:
` an entry of judgment that Juniper is infringing Claim 10;
` an entry of judgment that Claim 10 is valid;
` an award of damages to compensate Finjan for Juniper’s infringement of Claim
`
`10;
` a finding that the case is exceptional;
` an award of Finjan’s costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees permitted under
`
`35 U.S.C. § 285;
` an accounting of all infringing sales and revenues, together with post judgment
`
`
`interest and prejudgment interest from the first date of infringement;
`
`
`1 As set forth in Finjan’s Second Amended Complaint and Rule 26(a)(1) disclosures, Finjan seeks
`monetary and equitable relief for the remaining Asserted Patents that are not expired and are not
`at issue in the ’494 Trial, but are still at issue in this case at large. Finjan seeks a reasonable
`royalty for Juniper’s infringement and, separately, injunctive relief for future infringement of the
`remaining unexpired Asserted Patents.

`

`
` prejudgment and post-judgment interest; and
` any further relief that the Court may deem proper and just.2
`Juniper’s Position
`
`For purposes of the December trial on limited issues pertaining to the ’494 Patent, Juniper
`
`seeks a judgment that Juniper does not infringe Claim 10, that Claim 10 is invalid, and a complete
`limitation on damages for failure to comply with statutory marking and notice requirements.3
`Juniper’s First Amended Answer to Finjan’s Second Amended Complaint identifies the following
`
`points of relief regarding Claim 10 at issue for the upcoming trial:
` an entry of judgment that Juniper is not infringing Claim 10;
` an entry of judgment that Claim 10 is invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 101;
` an entry of judgment that Finjan is not entitled to any damages on Claim 10
`
`because it failed to comply with the requirements of 35 U.S.C. § 287;
` a determination that this is an exceptional case under 35 U.S.C. § 285, and an
`
`award of attorneys’ fees and costs to Juniper in this action; and
` any further relief that the Court deems just and equitable.
`
`IV. UNDISPUTED OR STIPULATED FACTS
`For the purposes of the ’494 Trial, the undisputed facts are as follows:
`
`
`2 Finjan’s position is that Juniper has waived the defenses identified in footnote 3 below by not
`raising them in its opposition to Finjan’s motion for summary judgment pursuant to the schedule
`set by the Court.
`3 As set forth in Juniper’s First Amended Answer to Finjan’s Second Amended Complaint and
`various disclosures, Juniper also contends that Claim 10 is unenforceable for inequitable conduct
`and unclean hands, and is invalid under §§ 102 and 103. Juniper has also raised numerous
`affirmative defenses that have not yet been addressed in this proceeding. Juniper maintains all its
`claims and affirmative defenses for Claim 10, but recognizes that those issues will be decided at a
`later phase in the litigation. Finjan’s position that Juniper somehow waived its other defenses by
`not raising them in response to Finjan’s motion for summary judgment on non-infringement is
`meritless. Juniper selected several defenses to raise in its summary judgment opposition on the
`basis that it believed there were no factual disputes and the Court could decide them. Juniper was
`under no obligation from the Court—or from any other rule—to address every defense it has in its
`opposition to Finjan’s motion for summary judgment on infringement. See Pandrol USA, LP v.
`Airboss Ry. Products, Inc., 320 F.3d 1354, 1365 (Fed. Cir. 2003) (“the issue of invalidity is a
`separate issue from infringement, and an alleged infringer’s failure to raise it in opposition to a
`motion for summary judgment of infringement is not a waiver.”).

`FACTUAL ISSUES THAT REMAIN TO BE TRIED
`Finjan’s Position
`
`For the purposes of the ’494 Trial, the factual issues that remain to be tried are as follows:
`1.
`
`Whether Juniper’s SRX Gateways with Sky ATP and/or Sky ATP alone satisfy
`
`Claim 10’s limitation of a “database” in the element of “a database manager
`
`coupled with said Downloadable scanner, for storing the Downloadable security
`
`profile data in a database.”
`
`Whether Claim 10 contains an inventive concept such that it is patent eligible
`
`under Alice step two.
`
`Whether Finjan provided notice or not to Juniper under 35 U.S.C. § 287.
`
`The amount of damages if Juniper is found to have infringed Claim 10 of the ’494

`
`Whether Claim 10 contains an inventive concept such that it is patent eligible
`
`under Alice step two.
`
`Whether Finjan is barred from obtaining any damages because it failed to comply
`
`with the marking or actual notice requirements of 35 U.S.C. § 287.
`
`The amount of damages Finjan has established (if any), if Juniper is found to have
`
`infringed Claim 10 of the ’494 Patent, if Claim 10 is found to have an inventive
`
`concept, and if Finjan complied with the statutory notice requirements under 35
`
`U.S.C. § 287.
`
`During summary judgment briefing, Juniper expressly raised Finjan’s failure to comply
`
`with the marking and notice requirements of § 287, and explained that this failure precluded
`
`Finjan from recovering any damages in this case because the ’494 Patent expired before Finjan
`
`filed its lawsuit. In particular, Juniper argued Finjan incurred a notice obligation pursuant to
`
`§ 287 because it and its licensees sold products that embody the ’494 Patent, and failed to mark
`
`those products. Because (and only because) of this failure to mark, Finjan is only permitted to
`
`collect damages after it provided Juniper with actual and specific notice of infringement pursuant
`
`to § 287. Finjan disputed this issue on summary judgment, and the Court determined that there
`
`were factual issues that needed to be determined by the jury. Dkt. 189 at 20.
`
`Finjan now seems to be taking the position that it will not contest that it failed to mark its
`
`products (thus triggering an actual notice requirement pursuant to § 287), but it has not been clear
`
`or forthright about its new position. Specifically, when Finjan sent Juniper a draft of the joint
`
`jury instructions it noted in the draft that “No instruction on marking is appropriate because
`
`marking is not an issue for trial.” When Juniper asked Finjan to clarify why it believed that
`
`marking is not an issue for trial, it stated that “Finjan is not asserting constructive notice of the
`
`‘494 Patent at trial” and has took the position that only actual notice will be addressed. But actual
`
`notice is only an issue if Finjan did not mark products embodying the ’494 Patent. Thus, it
`
`appears that Finjan is conceding that it or its licensees had an obligation to mark and failed to do
`so. See § 287 (“In the event of failure so to mark, no damages shall be recovered by the patentee

`
`in any action for infringement, except on proof that the infringer was notified of the infringement
`
`and continued to infringe thereafter”) (emphasis added).
`
`When Juniper pressed Finjan on this issue, it then provided an abbreviated “constructive
`
`notice” instruction that only addresses the issue of whether the Vital Security product offered by
`
`Finjan Mobile (a related entity) was marked. Juniper asked Finjan to directly answer the
`
`following two questions: (1) Does Finjan intend to present evidence at trial that its licensees’
`
`products do not practice the ’494 Patent? And (2) Does Finjan intend to present evidence at trial
`
`that it made reasonable efforts to ensure that its licensees complied with the marking
`
`requirements of Section 287? Finjan refuses to state its position on whether or not it complied
`
`with § 287 with regard to its licensees. During summary judgment briefing, it argued that there
`
`were factual issues preventing summary adjudication on this topic. Does Finjan believe there are
`
`still factual issues regarding its compliance with § 287? If so, the issue will need to be decided by
`
`a jury. If not, the jury should simply be instructed that Finjan did not comply with § 287 and
`
`therefore incurred an obligation to provide actual notice to collect damages. While it is fine for
`
`Finjan to change its position, it must clearly state its position so that the Court can enter an order
`
`on the issue and the jury can be properly instructed. Instead, Finjan is playing games by trying to
`
`unilaterally remove the issue of marking from the trial without formally acknowledging that it is
`
`no longer contesting the issue.
`
`VI.
`
`ESTIMATE OF TRIAL TIME
`The Parties request that the Court allow 11 hours of trial time per side, not including jury
`
`selection, voir dire, opening statements, and closing statements. The Parties agree that there will
`
`be no more than one hour per side for opening statements and no more than one hour per side for
`
`closing statements.
`
`VII. STIPULATIONS REGARDING THE TIMELY EXCHANGE OF EVIDENCE
`The following stipulations regarding the exchange of evidence were agreed upon by the
`
`parties and are made a part of this Pretrial Order:
`
`Witnesses and Exhibits or Demonstratives
`
`Except for good cause, the Parties agree to provide written firm notice of the order of

`
`witnesses for the next court day and the exhibits (including demonstratives or merely illustrative
`
`exhibits) to be used on direct examination (other than for true impeachment of a witness) by 2:00
`
`p.m. on the calendar day immediately preceding the day the witness will testify or the exhibit will
`
`be used. If party chooses to provide two calendar days’ written notice by 2:00 p.m. instead, or if
`
`it provides two calendar days’ notice by 2:00 p.m. that no documents will be used, then all other
`
`counsel must give written notice of all other exhibits to be used on cross-examination (except for
`
`true impeachment) by 2:00 p.m. on the calendar day immediately preceding the testimony;
`
`otherwise, other responding counsel need not give notice of exhibits they may use. The parties
`
`agree that the requirement to disclose exhibits to be used on cross-examination does not apply to
`
`demonstratives that might be used on cross examination. Any exhibit timely noticed by anyone
`
`for the witness is usable as if timely noticed by everyone, subject to substantive objections.
`
`Similarly, if reference is made to an exhibit during an examination (even if not offered in
`
`evidence and even if not noticed for use with the witness), then in any follow-up examination by
`
`others, the exhibit may be used to the same extent as if it had been timely noticed, subject to
`
`substantive objections. All notices shall be sent by fax or electronically and be time-and-date
`
`verifiable. If counsel decides not to call a noticed witness, then prompt written notice of the
`
`cancellation must be given. Impeachment exhibits are ordinarily limited to statements signed by
`
`or adopted by the witness. Compliance with a two-day notice period, of course, will not satisfy
`
`compliance with FRCP 26 or any other disclosure rule.
`
`The parties further agree that they will provide notice of any objections to the use of an
`
`exhibit by 4:30 p.m. on the calendar day immediately preceding the date on which any exhibit is
`
`to be used, and will meet and confer by telephone at 5:00 p.m. on the calendar day immediately
`
`preceding the date on which any exhibit is to be used to discuss objections to the use of that
`
`exhibit, and to the extent the parties do not agree, the party seeking to exclude the use of an
`
`exhibit may email a short brief (not to exceed 4 pages in total) to the Court by 7:00 p.m. on the
`
`calendar day immediately preceding the date on which any exhibit is to be used, and the party
`
`seeking to admit the exhibit may submit a responsive brief by 10:00 p.m. Neither party is
`
`obligated to submit written briefing for exhibit-related issues. For example, for exhibits that are

`to be used on Monday, the parties will meet and confer at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday. If the parties do
`
`not agree regarding objections for an exhibit, the party seeking to exclude the use of the exhibit
`
`may email the Court by 7:00 p.m. on Sunday and the party seeking to admit the exhibit may
`
`respond by 10:00 p.m. on Sunday.
`
`Deposition Designations and Discovery Responses
`
`The parties agree to the following procedures for the disclosure of deposition designations
`
`and Request for Admission or Interrogatory responses, which are in line with paragraphs 20 and
`
`21 of the Court’s Guidelines for Trial and Final Pretrial Conference in Civil Jury Cases before the
`
`Honorable William Alsup:
`
`By at least 5:00 p.m. on the fifth calendar day before each trial day, the parties shall
`
`provide the “finished packet” of deposition designations to all other parties for the trial day in
`
`question, pursuant to paragraph 20(a) of the Court’s Guidelines for Trial and Final Pretrial
`
`Conference in Civil Jury Cases before the Honorable William Alsup. Also by at least 5:00 p.m.
`
`on the fifth calendar day before each trial day, the parties shall provide a list of Requests for
`
`Admission or Interrogatory responses that the party intends to present on the trial day in question.
`
`By at least 5:00 p.m. on the fourth calendar day before each trial day, all other parties
`
`must return the “adjusted packet” of deposition designations, along with any counter-
`
`designations, to the designating party for the trial day in question, pursuant to paragraphs 20(b)-
`
`(d) of the Court’s Guidelines for Trial and Final Pretrial Conference in Civil Jury Cases before
`
`the Honorable William Alsup. Also by at least 5:00 p.m. on the fourth calendar day before each
`
`trial day, all other parties shall provide any objections to the designating party’s list of Requests
`
`for Admission or Interrogatory responses that the designating party intends to present on the trial
`
`day in question.
`
`At 5:00 p.m. on the third calendar day before each trial day, the parties must meet and
`
`confer on their positions or objections regarding deposition designations and Requests for
`
`Admission or Interrogatory responses, pursuant to paragraphs 20(c) and 21 of the Court’s
`
`Guidelines for Trial and Final Pretrial Conference in Civil Jury Cases before the Honorable
`
`William Alsup.

`On the second calendar day before each trial day, the designating party must “collate and
`
`assemble a final packet that covers the proffer and all remaining issues” for deposition
`
`designations and Request for Admission or Interrogatory responses, and “[a]lert the Court on the
`
`record that the packet is being provided and whether any rulings are needed,” pursuant to
`
`paragraph 20(c) of the Court’s Guidelines for Trial and Final Pretrial Conference in Civil Jury
`
`Cases before the Honorable William Alsup.
`
`For example, for deposition testimony to be heard on Monday, the designating party shall
`
`provide deposition designations on the Wednesday before at 5:00 p.m. The responding party
`
`shall then provide an adjustment packet and objections on the Thursday before by 5:00 p.m. On
`
`the Friday before, the parties must meet and confer. On the Saturday before, the designating
`
`party must assemble the final packet and alert the Court on whether any rulings are needed.
`

`
`exhibits to be used in the opening statements” (“Opening Demonstratives”), pursuant to
`
`paragraph 10 of the Court’s Guidelines for Trial and Final Pretrial Conference in Civil Jury Cases
`
`before the Honorable William Alsup.
`
`By at least noon on the Saturday before opening statements (i.e., Saturday, December 8,
`
`2018), the Parties agree to exchange Opening Demonstratives.
`
`By at least 4:00 p.m. on the Saturday before opening statements (i.e., Saturday,
`
`December 8, 2018), the Parties agree to exchange written notice of any objections to Opening
`
`Demonstratives.
`
`At 10:00 a.m. on the Sunday before opening statements (i.e., Sunday, December 9, 2018),
