`
`Amended Pleadings (pre-claim construction) due from all
`parties, including inequitable conduct allegations.
`
`It is not necessary to file a Motion for Leave to Amend before the
`deadline to amend pleadings. It is necessary to file a Motion for
`Leave to Amend after the deadline. However, if the amendment
`would affect infringement contentions or invalidity contentions, a
`motion must be made pursuant to Patent Rule 3-6(b) irrespective of
`whether the amendment is made prior to this deadline.
`
`Comply with P.R. 4-3 (a) - Filing of Joint Claim Construction and
`Prehearing Statement.
`
`In the P.R. 4-3 filing, the parties shall list the most significant terms
`according to the parties’ priorities, which were agreed upon during
`the P.R. 4-2 meet and confer, indicating which of those terms will be
`case or claim dispositive. A maximum of [Apple proposes 25
`terms2; Maxell proposes 20 claims] will be construed, unless parties
`have received other instruction from the Court. If the parties cannot
`agree to the most important [25; 20] terms, the parties shall identify
`the terms that were agreed upon and then divide the remainder
`evenly between Plaintiff(s) and Defendant(s).
`
`If claim terms listed in the P.R. 4-3 filing are subsequently mooted
`as a result of the Preliminary Election of Asserted Claims, the parties
`may, if necessary, amend the P.R. 4-3 filing to identify additional
`claim terms up to the maximum of 25, provided the amendment is
`filed within two days of the Preliminary Election of Asserted
`Claims.
`
`                                                            
`2 Language highlighted in blue is proposed by Apple and disputed by Maxell. Language
`highlighted in green is proposed by Maxell and disputed by Apple. Apple believes that
`given (1) the number of patents asserted in this case; and (2) that Maxell has indicated it
`intends to assert as many claims as allowed under the separately proposed Focusing
`Order, a maximum of 25 claims is necessary to adjudicate all of the anticipated claim
`construction and indefiniteness issues. Because the Preliminary Election deadline is after
`the P.R. 4-3(a) deadline, it is fair and reasonable to allow the parties to select additional
`claims for construction (e.g., ones that would have been selected but for the 25-claim
`limit) if previously selected claims drop off as a result of the Preliminary Election.

`The nonmoving party subject to an indefiniteness challenge must

`challenge pursuant to P.R. 4-3(b).
`
`Comply with P.R. 4-3(b) (other than responses to indefiniteness)
`- Each party shall also simultaneously serve a disclosure of expert
`testimony consistent with Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2)(B(i)-(ii) or
`26(a)(2)(C) for any expert on which it intends to rely to support its
`proposed claim construction or indefiniteness position or to oppose

`
`Parties are encouraged, but not required, to mediate cases.
`
`If the parties agree to mediate, they shall jointly file a motion with a

`parties agree upon a mediator and shall include a mediation
`deadline. The parties shall confirm the mediator’s availability in

`

`necessary to obtain leave of Court to join additional parties.
`
`Plaintiff shall add new patents and/or claims for patents-in-suit. It is
`not necessary to file a motion to add additional patents or claims
`prior to this date. Thereafter, it is necessary to obtain leave of Court
`to add patents or claims.
`
`Parties’ estimated
`number of trial days
`
`10 days.
`
`
`
`In the event that any of these dates fall on a weekend or Court holiday, the deadline
`
`is modified to be the next Court business day.
`
`The parties are directed to Local Rule CV-7(d), which provides in part that “[a]
`
`party’s failure to oppose a motion in the manner prescribed herein creates a presumption
`that the party does not controvert the facts set out by movant and has no evidence to offer
`in opposition to the motion.”
`
`A party may request an oral hearing on a motion filed with the Court. Any such
`request shall be included in the text or in a footnote on the first page of the motion or any
`responsive pleading thereto. The Court does not hold telephonic hearings absent unusual
`circumstances.

`
`
`
`
`Other Limitations
`
`(a)
`
`(b)
`
`The following excuses will not warrant a continuance or justify a failure to
`comply with the discovery deadline:
`(i) The fact that there are motions for summary judgment or motions to
`dismiss pending;
`(ii) The fact that one or more of the attorneys is set for trial in another court
`on the same day, unless the other setting was made prior to the date of
`this order or was made as a special provision for the parties in the other
`case;
`(iii) The failure to complete discovery prior to trial, unless the parties can
`demonstrate that it was impossible to complete discovery despite their
`good faith effort to do so.
`Amendments to the Docket Control Order (“DCO”): Any motion to alter any
`date on the DCO shall take the form of a motion to amend the DCO. The motion
`shall include a chart in the format of the DCO that lists all of the remaining
`dates in one column (as above) and the proposed changes to each date in an
`additional adjacent column (if there is no change for a date the proposed date
`column should remain blank or indicate that it is unchanged). The motion to
`amend the DCO shall also include a proposed DCO in traditional two-column
`format that incorporates the requested changes and that also lists all remaining
`dates. In other words, the DCO in the proposed order should be complete such
`that one can clearly see all the remaining deadlines rather than needing to also
`refer to an earlier version of the DCO.
`Indefiniteness: In lieu of early motions for summary judgment, the parties are
`directed to include any arguments related to the issue of indefiniteness in their
`Markman briefing, subject to the local rules’ normal page limits.
`(d) Motions in Limine: Each side is limited to one (1) motion in limine addressing
`no more than ten (10) disputed issues. In addition, the parties may file a joint
`motion in limine addressing any agreed issues. The Court views motions in
`limine as appropriate for those things that will create the proverbial “skunk in
`the jury box,” e.g., that, if mentioned in front of the jury before an evidentiary
`ruling can be made, would be so prejudicial that the Court could not alleviate
`the prejudice with an appropriate instruction. Rulings on motions in limine do
`not exclude evidence, but prohibit the party from offering the disputed
`testimony prior to obtaining an evidentiary ruling during trial.
`Exhibits: Each side is limited to designating 250 exhibits for trial absent a
`showing of good cause. The parties shall use the exhibit list sample form on
`Judge Schroeder’s website.
`Deposition Designations: Each side is limited to designating no more than ten
`(10) hours of deposition testimony for use at trial absent a showing of good
`cause. As trial approaches, if either side needs to designate more than ten (10)
`hours, the party may file a motion for leave and show good cause. All
`depositions to be read into evidence as part of the parties’ case-in-chief shall be
`EDITED so as to exclude all unnecessary, repetitious, and irrelevant testimony;

`read into evidence.

`
`ORDER REGARDING EXHIBITS, EXHIBIT LISTS AND WITNESS LISTS:
`
`
`
`
`A.
`
`
`B.
`
`
`On the first day of trial, each party is required to have:
`
`(1) One copy of their respective original exhibits on hand. Each exhibit shall
`be properly labeled with the following information: Identified as either
`Plaintiff’s or Defendant’s Exhibit, the Exhibit Number and the Case
`Number.
`(2) Three hard copies of each party’s exhibit list and witness list on hand.
`(3) One copy of all exhibits on USB Flash Drive(s) or portable hard drive(s).
`This shall be tendered to the Courtroom Deputy at the beginning of trial.
`(4) One copy of all expert reports on CD. This shall be tendered to the
`Courtroom Deputy at the beginning of trial.
`
`The parties shall follow the process below to admit exhibits.
`
`(1) On the first day of trial, each party shall tender a preadmitted list of exhibits it
`plans to admit into evidence. This list shall include all exhibits which are NOT
`objected to or to which the Court has already overruled an objection. To the
`extent there are exhibits with outstanding objections for which the parties need
`a ruling from the Court, those exhibits should be separately included on the list
`and designated accordingly to reflect a pending objection. Parties shall entitle
`the list “[Plaintiff’s/Defendant’s] List of Preadmitted Exhibits.” If, during the
`course of the day’s testimony, a party wishes to offer an objected exhibit into
`evidence, the party may move for admission at the time it wishes to use that
`exhibit with a witness. The Court will then hear the opposing party’s objection
`and will rule on the objection at that time.
`
`(2) On each subsequent day of trial, the Court will commence by formally
`admitting all of the exhibits that were either unobjected to or allowed over
`objection and used during the previous day’s trial. The Court will ask for these
`exhibits to be read into the record and formally admitted into evidence at the
`beginning of that trial day. These will be the exhibits deemed admitted at trial.
`The parties shall keep a separate running list of all exhibits admitted throughout
`the course of trial.
`
`(3) At the conclusion of evidence, each party shall read into the record any exhibit
`that was used but not previously admitted during the course of trial and then
`tender its final list of every admitted exhibit, entitled “[Plaintiff’s/Defendant’s]
`Final List of All Admitted Exhibits.” To the extent there are exhibits that were
`not admitted during the course of trial, but for which there is agreement that
`
`

`

`
`
`they should be provided to the jury, the parties must inform the Court of those
`exhibits at the conclusion of evidence. The Court will then determine whether
`those exhibits will be allowed into the jury room for deliberations.
`
`At the conclusion of evidence, each party shall be responsible for pulling those
`exhibits admitted at trial and shall tender those to the Courtroom Deputy, who will
`verify the exhibits and tender them to the jury for their deliberations. One
`representative from each side shall meet with the Courtroom Deputy to verify the
`exhibit list.
`
`At the conclusion of trial, all boxes of exhibits shall be returned to the respective
`parties and the parties are instructed to remove these exhibits from the courtroom.
`
`Within five business days of the conclusion of trial, each party shall submit to the
`Courtroom Deputy:
`
`(1)
`(2)
`
`(3)
`
`A Final Exhibit List of Exhibits Admitted During Trial in Word format.
`Two CD(s) containing admitted unsealed trial exhibits in PDF format. If
`the Court ordered any exhibits sealed during trial, the Sealed Exhibits shall
`be submitted on a separate CD. If tangible or over-sized exhibits were
`admitted, such exhibits shall be substituted with a photograph in PDF
`format.
`A disk containing the transcripts of Video Depositions played during trial,
`along with a copy of the actual video deposition.
