`Case 2:17-cv-00513-JRG Document 154 Filed 07/17/18 Page 1 of 6 PageID #: 5611
`
`IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
`FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS
`MARSHALL DIVISION
`
`
`AGIS SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT LLC,
`
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`DEFENDANTS’ UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR LEAVE TO INCREASE PAGE LIMITS
`FOR MARKMAN BRIEFING
`
`Defendants Huawei Device USA Inc., Huawei Device Co., Ltd, Huawei Device
`
`(Dongguan) Co., Ltd., HTC Corporation, LG Electronics, Inc., Apple Inc., ZTE Corporation,
`
`ZTE (USA), Inc., and ZTE (TX), Inc. (collectively, “Defendants”) file this unopposed Motion
`
`for Leave to Increase Page Limit for Markman Briefing by 15 pages for each of Plaintiff AGIS
`
`Software Development LLC (“Plaintiff”) and Defendants file this unopposed Motion for Leave
`
`to Increase Page Limits for Markman Briefing by 15 pages for each of Plaintiff and Defendants.1
`
`Defendants seek to increase the page limit for their responsive Markman brief to 45 pages, from
`
`the 30 page default set forth in P.R. 4-5(e) and L.R. CV-7. Plaintiff does not oppose Defendants’
`
`motion, as long as Plaintiff is granted a corresponding 15-page increase, to be distributed at
`
`1 ZTE Corporation remains a non-party until AGIS serves the Amended Complaint (Dkt. No. 32)
`on it in Civil Action No. 2:17-cv-517-JRG.
`
`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00513-JRG Document 154 Filed 07/17/18 Page 2 of 6 PageID #: 5612
`
`Plaintiff’s choice between its opening and reply briefs, from a total of 40 pages to a total of 55
`
`pages.
`
`This page limit increase is warranted in view of the number of claims and complexity of
`
`the legal issues involved in the parties’ claim construction dispute. Plaintiff has asserted more
`
`than 92 claims against the consolidated defendants. The asserted claims derive from five patents
`
`directed to software applications that enable location tracking and communication among users.
`
`The asserted claims are lengthy and contain a large number of unique limitations, including
`
`many limitations written in means-plus-function form. Twenty of the parties’ disputes center on
`
`indefiniteness, and twelve involve underlying disputes as to whether the term is properly
`
`construed under 35 U.S.C. § 112(6). A page limit increase is appropriate and necessary to allow
`
`the parties to meaningfully address these challenging legal issues for such a large number of
`
`claims.
`
`For the reasons set forth above, Defendants respectfully request that the Court grant their
`
`unopposed motion to increase the page limit for each party’s claim construction briefing to 45
`
`pages.
