`AMENDED DISCOVERY ORDER
`
`Before the Court is the parties’ dispute jointly submitted via email. The Court held a
`
`hearing in front of Magistrate Judge Derek T. Gilliland on May 17, 2022, on this issue. The Court
`
`heard this dispute in conjunction with a related case, ParkerVision v. Hisense Co., Ltd. et al., Case
`
`No. 6:20-CV-00870.
`
`Plaintiff ParkerVision, Inc. (“ParkerVision”) complains that Defendants violated the
`
`Protective Order in this case by using Plaintiff’s infringement contentions (which were designated
`
`as Confidential) in an inter partes review proceedings (the “IPRs”) in front of the Patent Trial and
`
`Appeal Board (the “PTAB”). The PTAB ordered ParkerVision to produce the contentions in the
`
`IPRs. ParkerVision notes, however, that the PTAB did not require Defendants to use the
`
`contentions in any filings.

`
`The Court finds that Defendants did not violate the Protective Order in this case.
`
`Defendants, however, should not be allowed to use the contentions in the IPRs because they were
`
`designated as Confidential in this case. It is therefore ORDERED that Defendants are prohibited
`
`from using the infringement contentions in this case in any filings in any related IPR proceedings
`
`(including IPR2021-00990 and IPR2021-00985).
`
`SIGNED this 24th day of May, 2022.
