`
`UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
`DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS
`
`
`
`
`
`CIVIL ACTION NO. 13-cv-11567
`
`
`
`
`
`ZOND, LLC,
`
`v.
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`THE GILLETTE COMPANY and THE
`PROCTER AND GAMBLE COMPANY,
`
`Defendants.
`
`
`
`JOINT MOTION TO MODIFY THE COURT’S SCHEDULING ORDER (D.I. 23)
`
`Plaintiff Zond, LLC (“Zond”) and Defendants The Gillette Company and The Procter
`
`& Gamble Company (“Gillette”) hereby submit this joint motion to modify the Court’s
`
`Scheduling Order (D.I. 23) by extending the deadlines in the case preceding the Markman
`
`hearing by 60 days.
`
`The parties have been working together to narrow and potentially completely resolve
`
`the issues in this case. In particular, to narrow the issues in the case, on May 6, 2014, the
`
`parties filed a stipulation dismissing claims concerning Gillette’s Commercial Razor Blades,
`
`based on Gillette’s representations regarding those products. (D.I. 77). The parties are now
`
`seeking a 60-day extension of the deadlines in the case preceding the Markman hearing, as set
`
`forth below, in order to engage in a good faith effort to resolve the remaining issues in the
`
`case and to avoid incurring further expense. This motion for extension does not affect the
`
`date of the Markman hearing, which is scheduled for October 21, 2014.
