`
`
`
`
`
`FINJAN, INC.,
`
`Case No.15-cv-03295-BLF (SVK)
`
`
`
`ORDER GRANTING IN PART AND
`DENYING IN PART PLAINTIFF'S
`MOTION TO COMPEL DISCOVERY
`
`Re: Dkt. Nos. 151, 174
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`v.
`
`BLUE COAT SYSTEMS, LLC,
`
`Defendant.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The Court has reviewed the parties’ Discovery Dispute Joint Report submitted November
`
`23, 2016, that presented Plaintiff Finjan Inc.’s (“Finjan”) motion to compel responses to specific
`
`discovery requests. (Dkt. No. 151.) The Court has also reviewed the Supplemental Brief to
`
`Discovery Joint Report No. 1 submitted January 30, 2017, that narrowed the issues that remain.
`
`(Dkt. No. 174.) The Court grants in part and denies in part Finjan’s motion.
`
`First, with respect to the technical documents regarding design and functional
`
`specifications for Mail Threat Defense (“MTD”), Security Analytics, and Webpulse 2.0 (Request
`
`for Production Nos. 10, 12, and 13), Blue Coat Systems, LLC (“Blue Coat”) has agreed to confirm
`
`whether additional technical documents exist. Blue Coat shall produce additional documents or
`
`confirm production is complete on RFP Nos. 10 and 13 by February 3, 2017. The Court finds
`
`RFP No. 12 is overly broad and therefore denies Finjan’s motion as to that request.
`
`Second, regarding the revenue forecasts for the accused products (RFP No. 19), Blue Coat
`
`has agreed to produce revenue forecasts for the accused products if the documents exist. Blue
`
`Coat shall produce additional documents or confirm production is complete on RFP No. 19 by
`
`February 3, 2017.
`
`Third, regarding the schema of databases (RFP No. 53), Blue Coat shall produce additional

`
`
`
`documents or confirm production is complete of those documents describing the database
`
`structure of the “specifically identified databases,” as referenced in the January 30, 2017 Joint
`
`Report (Dkt. No. 174 at 4).
`
`Fourth, with respect to documents related to the valuation of Blue Coat, the accused
`
`products, or the Finjan patents (RFP Nos. 54, 55; Dkt. No. 174), the Court grants the motion in
`
`part as follows: Blue Coat shall produce documents arising out of acquisitions of Blue Coat in the
`
`last six years that reflect a valuation of the Finjan patents or the accused products. Such
`
`production shall be complete by February 3, 2017. Although it appears that the requests had been
`
`narrowed by meet and confer efforts, to be clear, the motion is denied as to requests for valuation
`
`of Blue Coat as a whole. The request is also denied as to documents relating to mere offers for
`
`sale, potential mergers or potential acquisitions or “other attempts to market Bluecoat.”
`
`Finally, the Court denies without prejudice Finjan’s request regarding document
`
`production deadlines for depositions. All documents should be produced by February 3, 2017.
`
`SO ORDERED.
