`
`
`Plaintiff Wi-LAN Inc. (“Wi-LAN”) and Defendant Apple Inc. (“Apple”)
`hereby jointly move the Court for a schedule for post-trial briefing and an order
`extending the time for Wi-LAN to seek costs and attorney’s fees, pursuant to Local
`Rule 7.2.
`On August 1, 2018, the jury entered a verdict in favor of Wi-LAN. The
`parties held a settlement meeting on August 22, 2018 in Sunnyvale, California, and
`a mediation on September 21, 2018 in San Diego, California with Judge Weinberg,
`but a resolution was not reached. On September 28, 2018, Apple notified Wi-LAN
`that it was dropping its equitable defense. Accordingly, the parties hereby request
`that the Court dismiss Apple’s equitable defense for the patents asserted at trial
`with prejudice. For the patents in this action that Wi-LAN did not assert at trial,
`the parties request that the Court dismiss Apple’s equitable defense without
`prejudice.1
`The parties also request that the Court enter a schedule for post-trial briefing.
`Apple intends to file a motion for a new trial under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59 and a
`renewed motion for judgment as a matter of law under Fed. R. Civ. P. 50(b). Wi-
`LAN intends to file a motion for pre and post-judgment interest and ongoing
`royalties. The parties propose the following schedule:
`October 26, 2018: Opening briefs due.
`November 9, 2018: Opposition briefs due.
`November 20, 2018: Reply briefs due.
`December 7, 2018: Hearing.2
`As the prevailing party based on the current record, Wi-LAN is entitled to
`costs. Local Rule 54.1; Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(d). The current deadline to file a bill of
`costs is fourteen (14) days after entry of judgment, and the current deadline to file
`
`1 The patents Wi-LAN asserted at trial are U.S. Patent Nos. 8,457,145 and
`8,537,757. The patents Wi-LAN did not assert at trial are U.S. Patent Nos.
`8,311,040, 8,462,723, 8,462,761, and 8,615,020.
`2 To the extent the Court is not available December 7, 2018, the parties are also
`available for a hearing on November 30, 2018.

`
`any motion for attorney’s fees and related nontaxable expenses is also fourteen
`(14) days after entry of judgment. Id.
`Given a potential order that changes the prevailing party in this case and/or
`an appeal of this case to the Federal Circuit, the parties seek an order extending the
`time for the prevailing party to file a bill of costs and a motion for attorney’s fees
`and related nontaxable expenses to (i) 60 days after entry of a mandate from the
`Federal Circuit, (ii) 60 days after termination of the appeal, or (iii) 60 days after the
`time for filing an appeal has expired, whichever is later.
