`
`
`
`IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
`FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS
`TEXARKANA DIVISION
`
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`Defendant.
`
`Case No. 5:19-cv-00036-RWS
`
`JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
`
`MAXELL, LTD.,
`
`v.
`
`APPLE INC.,
`
`
`
`JOINT NOTICE REGARDING PRETRIAL OBJECTIONS
`
`Pursuant to the Docket Control Order (D.I. 545), Plaintiff Maxell, Ltd. (“Plaintiff” or
`
`
`
`“Maxell”) and Defendant Apple Inc. (“Defendant” or “Apple”) hereby submit to the Court the
`
`status of and proposed steps for resolving remaining pretrial objections.
`
`
`
`On November 5, 2020, the Parties each identified withdrawn exhibits. On November 9,
`
`2020, the Parties each identified the exhibits for which they maintain pretrial objections. On
`
`November 11, 2020, the Parties held a teleconference to discuss the maintained exhibit objections
`
`and were able to reach agreement with respect to certain exhibits and objections. The parties each
`
`believe that further narrowing of exhibits and pretrial objections is possible. They have thus agreed
`
`to perform another round of narrowing and to have another meet and confer during the week of
`
`November 16 to discuss remaining objections and determine whether there is any room for
`
`additional agreement.
`
`
`
`At this point, and given the potential for significant further narrowing, the parties believe
`
`that any remaining exhibit objections may be handled on a day-by-day basis pursuant to the
`
`schedule set forth in the Joint Pretrial Order (D.I. 546 at Section L(4)). This is subject to change
`
`pending the results of the further meet and confer.
`
`
`
`Case 5:19-cv-00036-RWS Document 578 Filed 11/11/20 Page 2 of 4 PageID #: 30773
`
`
`
`
`
`With respect to objections to deposition designations, given the relatively low number of
`
`objections made by the Parties and the uncertainty regarding what designations either Party may
`
`actually seek to enter, the Parties also agree that it will be most efficient to address these as they
`
`arise pursuant to the schedule laid out in the Pretrial Order (D.I. 546 at Section L(19)).
`
`
`
`The Parties do not anticipate any exhibit or deposition designation objections needing to
`
`be argued or addressed at the Pretrial Conference, unless part and parcel of an otherwise pending
`
`motion or issue.
