`From our view, without actual infringement claims, it seems
`as though the rules just go to 4-1 and 4-2, but I don’t want
`to -- guidance on that issue would probably help us in our
`meet and confer.
`THE COURT: Yes.
`MR. WELLS: And your Honor, if I could weigh in
`one issue that is -- on this? We met and conferred last --
`late last week on the targeted disclosures that we asked for
`on the 31st.
`THE COURT: Right.
`MR. WELLS: And we’re drafting a motion to compel
`and we’ll be submitting that to your Honor after we get the
`input from the other side and do a joint submission, but I’m
`guessing that will come early next week. So that will be --
`we’ll be back before you, likely, once that’s submitted.
`THE COURT: All right. So, thank you -- this is
`
`helpful.
`So you’ve described the targeted disclosures that
`Demaray wants here, put a line entry for that in your
`proposed order, as to when you’re wanting them by. I’m not
`looking for a narrative of every little detail of what
`you’re seeking, you’re just -- you described it at the
`beginning of the hearing today -- but just so that I see
`that there’s a date and what it is that you’re suggesting be
`by that time period.

`
`And then on the Applied side, I agree it would be
`helpful to you if you had a resolution of this and I’m going
`to foot the duty back on you, which is I want to see what
`each of you are proposing, as far as the deadlines go, and
`then I will issue a ruling about -- you know, in my schedule
`when I issue a ruling, it’s going -- my goal would be to
`give you some clarity about the 3-1 versus the 4-1, kind of
`where you’re jumping off on. I agree -- I agree you need
`resolution of that issue, but I want to see your overall
`case schedule that you’re proposing before I rule on it.
`MR. OU: Understood, your Honor.
`THE COURT: You might have to have a -- you know,
`kind of a -- if A, then this. If B, then this. And I know
`that makes things more complicated, but perhaps that’s the
`way you’ve got to draft it.
`MR. OU: Understood, your Honor. And just one
`final point, just because it’s an issue that Mr. Wells
`raised.
`
`THE COURT: Yes.
`MR. OU: In terms of claim construction discovery.
`In our 4-2 disclosures a few months ago, we did consider
`whether or not we would put in an expert declaration. Given
`the timing and the delay it’s caused, if it advances
`forward, in terms of briefing, we’re happy not to submit an
`expert declaration. It doesn’t seem like Mr. Wells is
