`Claim Construction Hearing
`WHEREAS, after the Court entered the Scheduling Order, on February 5, 2019, ZTE filed a
`
`
`
`
`
`Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”), removing ZTE’s claims of invalidity of the patents-in-suit;
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, on February 19, 2019, AGIS Software filed a Motion to Dismiss the SAC
`
`(“MTD”), with a hearing scheduled for May 9, 2019 (Dkt. 41);
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, on March 15, 2019, AGIS Software filed a Motion for Sanctions against ZTE,
`
`with a hearing scheduled for June 6, 2019 (Dkt. 48);
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, on April 4, 2019, in order to allow sufficient time for the Parties to complete
`
`mediation, the Court granted the Parties’ request to extend the ADR deadline from April 17, 2019 to
`
`June 21, 2019 (Dkt. 56);
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, on April 9, 2019, in accordance with the Court’s April 2, 2019 Order, ZTE
`
`resubmitted its opposition brief to the MTD (Dkt. 59);
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, also on April 9, 2019, the Parties confirmed with JAMS that they will engage
`
`in mediation on June 4, 2019 with Hon. James Ware (Ret.) as Mediator;
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, AGIS Software’s reply brief in response to ZTE’s resubmitted opposition to
`
`the MTD is due to be filed on April 16, 2019;
`
`
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, considering the status of the case, the pendency of the motions (including a
`
`dispositive motion) and the upcoming mediation, the Parties have agreed that good cause exists for a
`
`3 week extension of all upcoming deadlines set forth in the Scheduling Order, as such extension will
`
`permit more efficient case management, serve the interests in judicial economy, and ensure the most
`
`efficient use of the Court’s and the Parties’ resources;
`
`
`
`WHEREAS, the Parties have not previously requested an extension of these deadlines, and
`
`the Parties do not believe the requested 3-week extension of the currently-scheduled deadlines will
`
`have a material impact on the schedule for the case;
