`GOOGLE, INC.’S OBJECTIONS AND RESPONSES TO PLAINTIFF

`FOR PRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS
`Pursuant to Rules 26 and 34 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Defendant Google,
`
`Inc. (“Google”), by its attorneys, Kaye Scholer LLP, objects and responds to Plaintiff Arendi
`
`S.A.R.L.’s (“Plaintiff”) First Set of Requests for Production of Documents(the “Requests”) as
`
`follows:
`
`GENERAL OBJECTIONS
`
`1.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that they seek information or material
`
`protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work-product doctrine, the joint defense privilege,
`
`or any other applicable privilege, immunity, or protection. Any inadvertent production of any
`
`privileged documents in response to the Requests is not intended to constitute a waiver of any
`
`applicable privilege and/or protection.
`
`2.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that any of them, read alone or in
`
`conjunction with the “Definitions” and/or “Instructions,” purports to impose obligations not
`
`imposed or contemplated by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Local Rules of the United
`
`States District Court for the District of Delaware, or any agreements or stipulations entered into
`
`by the parties.
`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 193-2 Filed 12/12/19 Page 3 of 51 PageID #: 5993
`
`3.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that they seek documents that are not
`
`relevant to the subject matter of this action and/or not reasonably calculated to lead to the
`
`discovery of admissible evidence.
`
`4.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that they seek documents that are
`
`already in Plaintiff’s possession, custody, or control, or that are publicly available or are as
`
`readily available to Plaintiff as they are to Google.
`
`5.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that they seek documents whose
`
`disclosure is governed by Google’s agreements with third parties, including confidentiality
`
`agreements. Google will produce such documents only after complying with, and in compliance
`
`with, the terms of such third-party agreements.
`
`6.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that they are vague, ambiguous,
`
`overly broad, unduly burdensome, unreasonably cumulative, or duplicative.
`
`7.
`
`Google expressly reserves the right to object to the admissibility at trial of these
`
`Responses and Objections or any documents or information produced in response to these
`
`Requests. Neither Google’s Responses and Objections to the Requests nor the production of
`
`materials in response to the Requests is intended as an admission or concession of the
`
`admissibility of any information contained herein.
`
`8.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that they assume disputed facts or
`
`legal conclusions in defining the information requested. Google denies any such disputed facts
`
`or legal conclusions assumed by the Requests, and any response or objection to any Request is
`
`without prejudice to this objection.
`
`9.
`
`Google objects to the Requests, and to each and every individual request
`
`contained therein, to the extent that they call for Google to identify privileged documents created
`
`after the filing of this lawsuit on the grounds that such Requests are overly broad and
`
`burdensome and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, and
`
`would call for counsel to review all of its files and list most of the documents therein on a
`
`privilege log.

`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 193-2 Filed 12/12/19 Page 4 of 51 PageID #: 5994
`
`10.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent that they seek information protected
`
`by or involving trade secrets or other confidential research, development, proprietary or
`
`commercial information that would not be covered by the Protective Order, or similar Order
`
`issued by the Court.
`
`11.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent they call for production of documents
`
`that are not within its possession, custody, or control.
`
`12.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent they use undefined, vague, and
`
`ambiguous terms.
`
`13.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent they purport to require Google to
`
`draw a legal conclusion concerning the meaning or application of any terms or phrases used.
`
`14.
`
`Google objects to the Requests to the extent they exceed the limits of permissible
`
`discovery allowed under any court order or the local rules.
`
`15.
`
`Google reserves the right at any time to revise, correct, add to, supplement, or
`
`clarify any of the responses contained herein.
`
`16.
`
`Google objects to Plaintiff’s definitions of “Document” and “Documents” as
`
`overbroad, unduly burdensome and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of
`
`admissible evidence.
`
`17.
`
`Google objects to Plaintiff’s definitions of “sale,” “sales,” “sell,” or “sold” as
`
`overbroad, unduly burdensome and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of
`
`admissible evidence.
`
`18.
`
`Google objects to Plaintiff’s definitions of “identify” and “identification” as
`
`overbroad, unduly burdensome and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of
`
`admissible evidence.
`
`19.
`
`Google objects to Plaintiff’s definitions of “relate to,” “related to,” “relating to,”
`
`or “concerning” as overbroad, unduly burdensome and not reasonably calculated to lead to the
`
`discovery of admissible evidence.

`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 193-2 Filed 12/12/19 Page 5 of 51 PageID #: 5995
`
`20.
`
`Google objects to Plaintiff’s definitions of “you,” “your,” “yours” or “Defendant”
`
`as overbroad, unduly burdensome and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of
`
`admissible evidence.
`
`21.
`
`Google’s agreement to produce responsive documents does not and shall not
`
`constitute an admission that such responsive documents in fact exist. Rather, Google’s
`
`agreement to produce is only an agreement to produce responsive documents found after a
`
`reasonable search, if in fact such responsive documents are found to exist.
`
`22.
`
`Google will only produce documents relevant to the products actually identified
`
`as accused products and charted in Plaintiff’s infringement charts as required under the local
`
`rules.
`
`23.
`
`All of the General Objections set forth herein are hereby incorporated into each
`
`specific response set forth below and have the same force and effect as if fully set forth therein.
