`
`HOLOGIC, INC., a Delaware corporation; and
`CYTYC SURGICAL PRODUCTS, LLC, a
`Massachusetts limited liability company,
`
`Plaintiffs,
`
`v.
`

` C.A. No. 20-925-JFB-SRF
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`JOINT MOTION FOR TELECONFERENCE TO RESOLVE DISCOVERY DISPUTE
`
`Plaintiffs Hologic, Inc. and Cytyc Surgical Products, LLC (collectively, “Hologic”) and
`
`Defendant Minerva Surgical, Inc. (“Minerva”) respectfully move this Court to schedule a
`
`teleconference to address outstanding disputes regarding the following discovery matters:
`
`•
`
`As Minerva advised the Court in D.I. 57, on January 8, 2021, the Supreme Court
`
`granted Minerva’s Petition for a writ of certiorari in Hologic, Inc. et al v. Minerva
`
`Surgical, Inc., C.A. No. 15-1031-JFB-SRF (the “First Action”) relating to the
`
`assignor estoppel issue. In view of the effects that the Supreme Court’s decision
`
`may have on this case, which involves the same patent-in-suit, Minerva will seek
`
`to stay this action pending the exhaustion of the appeal process in the First Action.
`
`By this motion, Minerva seeks a protective order preventing the depositions of its
`
`witnesses (Dave Clapper; Dominique Filloux; Eugene Skalnyi; and Csaba
`
`Truckai) pending resolution of its forthcoming motion to stay this case.
`
`The following attorneys, including at least one Delaware Counsel and at least one Lead
`
`Counsel per party, participated in a verbal meet-and-confer by telephone on January 12, 2020:
