`
`
`IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
`FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS
`TEXARKANA DIVISION
`
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`Case No. 5:19-cv-00036-RWS
`
`JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
`
`
`
`
`MAXELL, LTD.,
`
`v.
`
`APPLE INC.,
`
`Defendant.
`
`
`
`NOTICE OF SUPPLEMENTAL AUTHORITY REGARDING APPLE INC.’S OPPOSED
`MOTION FOR LEAVE TO CONDUCT TWO DEPOSITIONS
`AFTER THE FACT DEPOSITION DEADLINE
`
`
`
`Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(d), Plaintiff Maxell, Ltd. (“Maxell”), by
`
`counsel, submits this notice of supplemental authority—the attached Order in Optis Wireless
`
`Technology, LLC, et al. v. Apple Inc., No. 2:19-cv-00066-JRG (E.D. Tex. Apr. 28, 2020)—in
`
`connection with Apple Inc.’s (“Apple”) Opposed Motion for Leave to Conduct Two Depositions
`
`After the Fact Deposition Deadline (“Motion for Leave”).
`
`The attached Order, rendered by Judge Gilstrap, is relevant to this matter as it addresses a
`
`joint request made by the parties in that case, which includes Apple, to take certain depositions
`
`after the close of fact discovery. With respect to two depositions, the request was to take the
`
`depositions at some undetermined future date convenient for the parties and witnesses. With
`
`respect to such depositions, the Court denied the motion, stating that “[t]he Parties are free to re-
`
`urge their requests for leave with regards to these depositions in the future when they are able to
`
`present the Court with more details as to when and where the depositions will be conducted.”
`
`Order at 2.

`
`
`The attached Order issued in response to a motion made by Apple in co-pending litigation.
`
`Apple was thus plainly aware of the Order. Although the attached Order concerned similar issues
`
`as those raised by Apple’s Motion for Leave, and issued prior to Apple’s filing of that motion,
`
`Apple did not cite the Order before this Court. Maxell did not learn of the Order until May 21,
`
`2020—the same day it is being submitted as Supplemental Authority.
