`
`[PROPOSED] PRETRIAL ORDER
`
`Plaintiff Evolved Wireless, LLC (“Evolved Wireless”) and Apple Inc. (“Apple”) jointly
`
`submit this Pretrial Order pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 16, District of Delaware
`
`Local Rule 16.3, and the Court’s September 6, 2018 Joint Amended Pretrial and Trial
`
`Scheduling Order, D.I. 432. The pretrial conference is scheduled for March 5, 2019 at 10:00
`
`a.m., and a 10-day jury trial is currently scheduled to begin against Apple in Civil Action No. 15-
`
`542-JFB-SRF on March 25, 2019.
`
`This order shall control the subsequent course of the action, unless modified by the Court
`
`to prevent manifest injustice.

`
`Nature of Case
`
`A.
`
`Procedural history
`
`
`
`1.
`
`Joint Statement
`
`1.
`
`Plaintiff Evolved Wireless filed this patent infringement case against Defendant
`
`Apple on June 25, 2015, asserting patent infringement claims on five patents that the patentee
`
`declared are “essential” to the Long-Term Evolution (“LTE”) wireless communications standard.
`
`D.I. 1 (Complaint for Patent Infringement). Defendant Apple filed an Answer and
`
`Counterclaims. D.I. 9.
`
`2.
`
`Evolved Wireless also filed suits at the same time against HTC, Motorola,
`
`Samsung, ZTE, and Microsoft, all of which are pending before this Court and which were
`
`coordinated for various pretrial purposes. Evolved Wireless, LLC v. HTC Corp., 15-cv-543;
`
`Evolved Wireless, LLC v. Motorola Mobility, LLC, 15-cv-544; Evolved Wireless, LLC v.
`
`Samsung Elecs. Co, Ltd. et al, 15-cv-545; Evolved Wireless, LLC v. ZTE Corp., 15-cv-546;
`
`Evolved Wireless, LLC v. Microsoft Corp. et al, 15-cv-547.

`

`Case 1:15-cv-00542-JFB-SRF Document 464 Filed 02/19/19 Page 7 of 41 PageID #: 28828
`
`3.
`
`In July 2017, the parties stipulated to the dismissal of the ’916, ’965 and ’481
`
`patents, leaving the ’373 and ’236 patents as the two patents-in-suit. D.I. 164
`
`4.
`
`Evolved Wireless alleges Apple infringes claims 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 23, 24,
`
`and 25 of U.S. Patent No. 7,809,373 (the “’373 patent”), and claims 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
`
`12, and 13 of U.S. Patent No. 7,881,236 (the “’236 patent”) (together, the “asserted claims”).
`
`The patentee declared that the ’373 and ’236 patents are essential to the Long Term Evolution
`
`(“LTE”) wireless communications standard. Evolved Wireless contends that the ’373 and ’236
`
`patents are standard essential patents (“SEPs”) necessary to comply with the LTE wireless
`
`communications standard.
`
`5.
`
`Apple contends that the ’373 and ’236 patents are neither essential to the LTE
`
`wireless communications standard nor necessary for a mobile device to comply or be compatible
`
`with the LTE wireless communications standard. Apple denies Evolved Wireless’s allegations
`
`of infringement, alleges the asserted claims of the ’373 and ’236 patents are invalid, and asserts
`
`various affirmative defenses and counterclaims, including affirmative defenses alleging
`
`
`
` and a counterclaim for an alleged breach of Evolved Wireless’s
`
`contractual FRAND obligation.
`
`6.
`
`On November 14, 2016, this Court issued its claim construction order, construing
`
`the disputed claim terms of the ’373 and ’236 patents.1 D.I. 110.
`
`
`1 As addressed below, Apple contends that, following the Court’s claim construction order, two
`claim construction issues have arisen that require resolution before the jury hears this case. D.I.
`223, 244, 270. As addressed below, Evolved Wireless contends that no new claim construction
`issues have arisen because Defendants’ experts applied the full scope of the claim terms in their
`invalidity reports. Further, Apple’s strategic decision not to seek claim construction of these
`terms in addition to the 20 terms it did raise during claim construction precludes Apple from
`making untimely, incorrect claim construction arguments on the eve of trial.

`

`
`Apple Additional Statement
`
`7.
`
`Apple and other defendants simultaneously filed inter partes review petitions with
`
`the United States Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”), requesting review of all five of the
`
`asserted patents-in-suit. The PTAB denied to institute inter partes review of U.S. Patent No.
`
`7,809,373 (the “’373 patent”). The PTAB did institute inter partes review of the other four
`
`patents-in-suit, namely U.S. Patent Nos. 7,746,916 (the “’916 patent”), 7,768,965 (the “’965
`
`patent”), 8,218,481 (the “’481 patent”) and 7,881,236 (the “’236 patent”). The PTAB
`
`subsequently issued final written decisions invalidating all asserted claims of the ’916, ’965,
`
`’481 and ’236 patents. See IPR2016-01208, Paper 30 (December 14, 2017 Final Written
`
`Decision for asserted claims of the ’916 patent); IPR2016-01177, Paper 27 (December 20, 2017
`
`Final Written Decision for asserted claims of the ’965 patent); IPR2016-00981, Paper 19 (March
`
`12, 2018 Final Written Decision for asserted claims of the ’481 patent); and IPR2016-01228,
`
`Paper 27 (November 30, 2017 Final Written Decision for asserted claims of the ’236 patent).
`
`8.
`
`Evolved Wireless filed a request for rehearing in the ’236 patent inter partes
`
`review proceedings. The PTAB denied Evolved Wireless’s request for rehearing. See IPR2016-
`
`01228, Paper 32. Evolved Wireless currently is appealing the PTAB’s final written decision for
`
`the ’236 patent to the Federal Circuit. Briefing in that appeal is expected to be completed by
`
`February 2019. Evolved Wireless did not appeal the final written decisions for the ’916, ’965
`
`and ’481 patents. The asserted claims of these patents were therefore found unpatentable. The
`
`U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued certificates canceling all asserted claims of the ’916
`
`and ’965 patents, and will soon issue a certificate canceling the asserted claims of the ’481
`
`patent.

`
`Evolved Wireless Additional Statement
`
`9.
`
`After institution was denied by the PTAB as to the ’373 patent, Defendants filed a
`
`request for rehearing in the ’373 patent inter partes review proceedings. The PTAB denied
`
`Defendants’ request for rehearing. IPR2016-01185, Paper 9 (Jan. 18, 2017); IPR2016—01185,

`
`The parties’ joint statement of facts which are admitted and require no proof is
`
`attached as Exhibit 1.

`
`Issues of fact which remain to be litigated
`
`15.
`
`Evolved Wireless’s statement of issues of fact which remain to be litigated is
`
`attached as Exhibit 2. Apple’s statement of issues of fact which remain to be litigated is attached
`
`as Exhibit 3.
`

`
`Issues of law which remain to be litigated
`
`16.
`
`Evolved Wireless’s statement of issues of law which remain to be litigated is

`
`as Exhibit 5.
`

`
`Exhibits to be offered at trial
`
`17.
`
`Evolved Wireless’s list of exhibits to be offered at trial, along with Apple’s
`
`objections, is attached as Exhibit 6.
`
`18.
`
`Apple’s list of exhibits to be offered at trial, along with Evolved Wireless’s
`
`objections, is attached as Exhibit 7.
`
`19.
`
`Evolved Wireless will begin its trial exhibit list numbering at PTX0501. Evolved
`
`Wireless’s demonstrative exhibits will be identified by numbers prefixed with “PD”. Apple will
`
`begin its trial exhibit list numbering at DTX3001. Apple’s demonstrative exhibits will be
`
`identified by numbers prefixed with “DD”. Agreed exhibits will be numbered beginning at
`
`JTX0001. The parties will file a joint trial exhibit list by Feb. 22, 2019.
`
`20.
`
`Each party may use an exhibit that is listed on the other party’s exhibit list, to the
`
`same effect as though it were listed on its own exhibit list, subject to all objections, including
`
`those that may arise by virtue of the change in the identity of the party sponsoring the exhibit. If

`
`

`

`Case 1:15-cv-00542-JFB-SRF Document 464 Filed 02/19/19 Page 12 of 41 PageID #: 28833
`
`such evidentiary objections are overruled, any such exhibit may be admitted into evidence. Any
`
`exhibit, once admitted, may be used equally by each party. The listing of an exhibit by a party on
`
`its exhibit list does not waive any evidentiary or other objections to that exhibit by the listing
`
`party should the opposing party attempt to offer it into evidence.
`
`21.
`
`The parties agree that any exhibit identified in Exhibit 6 or Exhibit 7 and
`
`otherwise unobjected to may be used and published to the jury in opening statements by either
`
`party.
`
`22.
`
`Exhibits not objected to will be received into evidence by the operation of the
`
`Final Pretrial Order without the need for additional foundation testimony, provided they are
`
`shown to a witness.
`
`23.
`
`The parties agree that documents created and/or produced by a party or
`
`subpoenaed third party and thereafter produced by that party or subpoenaed third party in this
`
`case and identified in Exhibit 6 or Exhibit 7 to this Order are presumed prima facie genuine and
`
`authentic pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 901. The parties also agree that such documents
`
`are presumed to be records kept in the course of the regularly conducted activity of a business
`
`pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 803(6)(B). Nothing, however, shall prohibit a party from
`
`offering argument or evidence to rebut these presumptions or from otherwise seeking admittance
`
`of any documents or communications for purposes other than the truth of the stated matters.
`
`24.
`
`The parties agree that notice of a party’s intended use of blow-ups (enlargements)
`
`of trial exhibits and/or deposition testimony and of ballooning, excerption, highlighting, etc. of
`
`such exhibits and/or deposition testimony need not be given (and need not be exchanged as a
`
`demonstrative exhibit), as long as the party has identified its intent to use the trial exhibit and/or

`
`Each party shall make available for inspection any physical exhibits by 12:00
`
`noon, Eastern Time, on March 21, 2019, or on a mutually agreeable date. Each party shall also
`
`provide, electronically, copies of any such proposed physical exhibits, as practicable. To the
`
`extent physical exhibits are to be offered, neither party waives any rights to object to the
`
`admissibility by virtue of this protocol.
`
`A.
`
`26.
`
`Demonstrative Exhibits
`
`The parties have agreed that the demonstrative exhibits the parties intend to use
`
`at trial do not need to be included on their respective lists of trial exhibits attached as Exhibit 6
`
`and Exhibit 7 to this order.

`opening statements by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time the day before opening statements will be given.
`
`The parties shall exchange any objections to such demonstrative exhibits to be used in opening

`
`arguments by 9:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the day they are exchanged, and shall promptly meet
`
`and confer on any such objections by 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the day they are exchanged.
`
`30. With respect to demonstratives to be exchanged pursuant to the preceding
`
`paragraphs, the parties reserve foundation and relevance objections to demonstratives until their
`
`use at trial.
`
`31.
`
`The party seeking to use a demonstrative exhibit shall provide a color (if the
`
`original exhibit is in color) representation of the demonstrative in PDF format to the other side.
`
`For videos or animations, the party seeking to use the demonstrative exhibit shall provide it to
`
`the other side in digital interactive format, including, as applicable, flash format, PPT format,
`
`MPG, or other video format. For irregularly sized physical demonstrative exhibits, the party
`
`seeking to use it shall provide a color representation in PDF format, indicating to the other party
`
`its intended physical size at trial.
`
`32.
`
`The foregoing provisions do not apply to demonstratives created during testimony
`
`or to exhibits and demonstratives to be used for cross examination, neither of which need to be
`
`provided to the other side in advance of their use (without waiving either party’s right to object
`
`to the same).
`
`33.
`
`The parties agree that the above stated provisions regarding exchanges of exhibits
`
`do not require the disclosure of exhibits, including demonstratives, to be used solely for cross-
`
`examination or rebuttal.
`
`VII. Witnesses
`
`A.
`
`34.
`
`Presentation of witnesses at trial
`
`The parties have prepared a good faith list of witnesses expected to be called at
`
`trial, either live or by deposition, including: (1) a “will call” list; and (2) a “may call” list.

`
`35.
`
`Evolved Wireless’s list of witnesses to be called at trial is attached as Exhibit 8.
`
`Apple’s list of witnesses to be called at trial is attached as Exhibit 9.
`
`36.
`
`If a party no longer expects to call a witness identified on the “will call” list, or if
`
`a party expects to call live a witness on the “may call” witness list, that party shall provide the
`
`other side notice of the change as soon as possible.
`
`37.
`
`A party shall identify the witnesses it intends to call to testify, whether it intends
`
`to do so in person or by deposition, and the order in which they are to be called, by 6:30 P.M.
`
`Eastern Time two (2) calendar days before they are to be called (e.g., witnesses for Monday
`
`morning will be disclosed on Saturday evening).
`
`38.
`
`A party shall identify trial exhibits and provide demonstrative exhibits to be used
`
`in connection with direct examination by 6:30 P.M. Eastern Time the calendar day before their
`
`intended use (e.g., exhibits for Monday morning will be disclosed on Sunday evening). Any
`
`objections will be provided no later than 8:30 P.M. Eastern Time that same day, and the parties
`
`shall promptly meet and confer by 10:00 P.M. Eastern Time on any such objections.
`
`39.
`
`If good faith efforts to resolve the objections fail, the party objecting to the
`
`exhibits shall notify the party sponsoring the exhibits as to which objections the objecting party
`
`intends to bring to the Court’s attention on the following day, and the objecting party shall do so
`
`prior to the witness being called to the witness stand. If the objection(s) is/are not sustained, the
`
`time spent by the parties arguing as to the admissibility of an exhibit and time spent by the Court
`
`deciding such issues shall be charged to the time available to each party for the presentation of
`
`evidence in amounts to be determined by the Court.
`
`40.
`
`The parties agree that the Court shall order fact witnesses, including rebuttal
`
`witnesses but excluding corporate representatives, excluded during witness testimony prior to

`
`their testifying at trial. This exclusion does not apply to opening statements and closing
`
`arguments. The parties agree that one party representative (who also may be a witness) from
`
`each side may attend trial. The parties further agree that expert witnesses may attend trial.
`
`B.
`
`41.
`
`Deposition designations
`
`For those witnesses who may be called to testify by deposition, the parties have
`
`designated specific page and line numbers of deposition testimony that they intend to read or
`
`play back during their case-in-chief.2
`
`42.
`
`Exhibit 10 hereto contains Evolved Wireless’s list of deposition designations,
`
`Apple’s objections to Evolved Wireless’s designations, Apple’s counter-designations, and
`
`Evolved Wireless’s objections to Apple’s counter-designations. Exhibit 11 hereto contains
`
`Apple’s list of deposition designations, Evolved Wireless’s objections to Apple’s designations,
`
`Evolved Wireless’s counter-designations, and Apple’s objections to Evolved Wireless’s counter-
`
`designations.
`
`43.
`
`This pretrial order contains the maximum universe of deposition designations,
`
`counter-designations, and objections to admission of deposition testimony; none of the foregoing
`
`shall be supplemented without approval of all parties or leave of the Court, on good cause
`
`shown, or unless used exclusively for rebuttal or impeachment.
`
`44.
`
`The party intending to offer a witness by deposition shall provide the other party
`
`with a list of final deposition designations (from the previously designated testimony) it intends
`
`to introduce by 6:30 P.M. Eastern Time two days before the deposition testimony is expected to
`
`
`2 Evolved Wireless reserves the right to serve additional deposition designations for the
`replacement witnesses that Apple has recently identified, Ravi Thakkar and Friedhelm
`Rodermund. Evolved Wireless reserves the right to serve additional deposition designations for
`any other replacement witnesses that Apple identifies prior to trial. Apple reserves the right to
`object to, and provide counter-designations for, any additional deposition designations that
`Evolved Wireless serves.

`
`be read or played in Court. To the extent not already resolved by the Court, the other party will
`
`provide a list of final objections and counter-designations by 6:30 P.M. Eastern Time one day
`
`after such designations were provided. The parties shall then promptly meet and confer by 10:00
`
`P.M. Eastern Time that same day to resolve any objections to the designated testimony.
`
`45.
`
`If there are objections that cannot be resolved, the objecting party shall, no later
`
`than 10:00 P.M. Eastern Time one day before the witness is to be called at trial, submit to the
`
`Court, on behalf of all parties: (i) a copy of the entire deposition testimony of the witness at
`
`issue, clearly highlighting the designations, counter-designations, and pending objections; and
`
`(ii) a cover letter clearly identifying the pending objections as well as a brief indication (i.e., no
`
`more than one sentence per objection) of the basis for the objection and the offering party’s
`
`response to it. The time required to argue and resolve any such objections will be charged to each
`
`party’s time for the presentation of evidence in amounts to be determined by the Court.
`
`46.
`
`If a party designates deposition testimony, and the other party counter-designates,
`
`then the designations and counter-designations will be read or played in chronological order.
`
`Regardless of whether deposition testimony is read or played by video, the time available for
`
`each party’s trial presentation shall be reduced by the length of its designations and counter-
`
`designations for each deposition so r
