`
`ABB DEFENDANTS’ FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INITIAL DISCLOSURES
`
`-1-
`
`
`
`Defendants ABB Inc., Meadwestvaco Texas, LP, and Meadwestvaco Corporation
`
`(collectively the “ABB Defendants”) make the following disclosures pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.
`
`26(a)(1). These first supplemental initial disclosures (“supplemental disclosures”) are based upon
`
`information reasonably available to the ABB Defendants as of September 18, 2013. They are
`
`made based on a reasonable investigation to date and prior to the close of discovery in the case.
`
`Continuing investigation and additional discovery may alter these supplemental disclosures. The
`
`ABB Defendants reserve their right to further supplement these disclosures under Fed. R. Civ. P.
`
`26(e).
`
`These supplemental disclosures should not be construed as a representation that no other
`
`persons have knowledge of relevant facts or that no other relevant documents exist. Further,
`
`they are not an admission that any particular information is discoverable, relevant, or admissible
`
`for any specific purpose. The ABB Defendants provide these supplemental disclosures, without
`
`waiver of any applicable privilege or immunity, based on present information and its present
`
`understanding. These supplemental disclosures are made without in any way waiving (1) the
`
`right to object on the grounds of competency, privilege, relevancy, materiality, hearsay, or any
`
`other proper ground, or the use of any such information for any purpose, in whole or in part, in
`
`any subsequent proceeding in this action or in any other action; and (2) the right to object on any
`
`and all grounds, at any time, to any other discovery request or proceeding involving or relating to
`
`the subject matter of these supplemental disclosures.
`
`A.
`
`The Correct Names Of The Parties To The Lawsuit
`
`Plaintiff:
`
`ROY-G-BIV Corporation
`
`Defendants:
`
`- 2 -
`
`
`
`ABB Inc., MeadWestvaco Texas, LP, and MeadWestvaco Corporation; ABB Ltd. was
`
`dismissed on December 28, 2012 (Doc. 110)
`
`B.
`
`The Name, Address, And Telephone Number Of Any Potential Parties
`
`At this time, the ABB Defendants are not aware of any potential parties to this lawsuit
`
`but are continuing to investigate whether other parties should be added.
`
`C.
`
`The Legal Theories And, In General, The Factual Bases Of The Disclosing Party’s
`Claims
`
`The legal theories and factual bases of the ABB Defendants’ claims and defenses can be
`
`found in the ABB Defendants’ First Amended Answer, Affirmative Defenses, and
`
`Counterclaims (“Amended Answer”) (Doc. 138)..
`
`In its Second Amended Complaint (Doc. 74), as amended, Plaintiff ROY-G-BIV
`
`Corporation (“Plaintiff”) alleges that the ABB Defendants directly and indirectly infringe U.S.
`
`Patent Nos. 6,513,058, 6,516,236, 8,073,557, and 6,941,543 (the “Patents in Suit”). Plaintiff
`
`states in its P.R. 3-1 disclosures that:
`
`“Accused Instrumentalities” means Industrial System 800xA Systems…systems
`incorporating an Industrial System 800xA Server, an Industrial System 800xA
`Application Program,
`a plurality of
`Industrial System 800xA Drivers,
`and…Industrial System 800xA Hardware…the software marketed by ABB as the
`“Connectivity Server” and/or the “Real Time Database” and any software
`implementing the same or similar functionality to that disclosed for Industrial
`System 800xA Servers[ ].
`
`The ABB Defendants deny that they infringe any valid claim of the Patents in Suit, either
`
`directly, by contribution, or by inducement. None of the ABB products or the combination
`
`thereof identified above include, literally or equivalently, the limitations of any valid claim of the
`
`Patents in Suit.
`
`As stated in its Amended Answer, the ABB Defendants state that the Patents in Suit and
`
`the asserted claims are invalid under 35 U.S.C. §§ 101, 102, 103, and/or 112. For example, the
`
`- 3 -
`
`
`
`prior art anticipates and renders obvious the asserted claims of the Patents in Suit. Additionally,
`
`the Patents in Suit fail to enable or describe the claimed subject matter, and some of the asserted
`
`claims are also indefinite and/or directed to non-statutory subject matter. The ABB Defendants
`
`have provided further information about its invalidity contentions under 35 U.S.C. §§ 101, 102
`
`and 103 and the prior art, as well as under § 112, in its P.R. 3-3 and 3-4 disclosures, as well as its
`
`briefs and other litigation papers filed in relation to the court’s Markman hearing and its motion
`
`for summary judgment of indefiniteness. The ABB Defendants will provide further information
`
`about its invalidity contentions as the case progresses and as it takes additional discovery.
`
`Plaintiff is not entitled to damages because the ABB Defendants have not infringed any
`
`of the Patents in Suit. Additionally, Plaintiff has failed to allege or show compliance with
`
`35 U.S.C. § 287. As a result, Plaintiff is not entitled to damages prior to the filing of suit.
`
`Plaintiff also is not entitled to injunctive relief because Plaintiff cannot show a likelihood of
`
`success on the merits (e.g., the ABB Defendants have not infringed any of the Patents in Suit)
`
`and, in all events, Plaintiff cannot show that money damages are inadequate to compensate
`
`Plaintiff for the ABB Defendants’ alleged infringement, that Plaintiff has been irreparably
`
`harmed by the ABB Defendants’ alleged infringement, that the balance of hardships favor
`
`Plaintiff, or that the public interest favors injunctive relief against the ABB Defendants.
`
`The ABB Defendants incorporate herein the defenses alleged by the other defendants in
`
`this case and other cases involving the Patents in Suit, including those raised in the P.R. 3-3 and
`
`3-4 disclosures. The ABB Defendants reserve the right to supplement, modify, or add to this
`
`disclosure as discovery proceeds.
