`Case 1:20-cv-00393-LO-TCB Document 967-6 Filed 02/11/22 Page 2 of 5 PageID# 27276
`
`IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
`FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA
`ALEXANDRIA DIVISION
`
`
`
`v.
`
`RAI STRATEGIC HOLDINGS, INC. and
`R.J. REYNOLDS VAPOR COMPANY,
`
`Plaintiffs and Counterclaim Defendants,
`
`
`
`ALTRIA CLIENT SERVICES LLC; PHILIP
`MORRIS USA INC.; and PHILIP MORRIS
`PRODUCTS S.A.,
`
`Defendants and Counterclaim Plaintiffs.
`
`Case No. 1:20-cv-00393-LO-TCB
`
`
`REYNOLDS’S IDENTIFICATION OF MOTION IN LIMINE TOPICS
`
`Pursuant to the Court’s Order Granting Joint Motion For Scheduling Order (Dkt. 801),
`
`RAI Strategic Holdings, Inc. and R.J. Reynolds Vapor Company (collectively, “Reynolds”)
`
`hereby identify the list of topics on which they intend to move in limine. Reynolds’s review is
`
`ongoing, and Reynolds reserves the right to supplement, amend, subtract from, and/or modify
`
`this list of initial topics for motions in limine prior to January 14, including after reviewing
`
`PMP/Altria’s list of topics for motion in limine. Reynolds also reserves the right to submit
`
`additional motion in limine topics related to PMP’s claim for injunctive relief because no
`
`schedule or procedure for trial of that issue has been set, and the Court has stayed expert
`
`discovery on that issue. Reynolds identifies these topics for motions in limine without prejudice
`
`to Reynolds’s right to object to any other evidence or arguments made at trial to the extent
`
`permitted under the Federal Rules of Evidence or any other applicable rules or Court orders.
`
`• No reference to any VUSE products as allegedly being illegal or unlawful
`• No reference to youth vaping or alleged targeting of the VUSE products to youths
