`Defendants.
`
`C.A. No. 14-cv-1430-CJB
`
`JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
`
`SCHEDULING ORDER
`
`This 23rd day of April, 2022, the Court having conducted an initial Rule 16 scheduling and
`
`planning conference pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 16(b) and Local Rule 16.1 on May
`
`18, 2015, and the parties having determined after discussion that the matter cannot be resolved at
`
`this juncture by settlement, voluntary mediation, or binding arbitration;
`
`IT IS ORDERED that:
`
`1.
`
`Rule 26(a)(1) Initial Disclosures and E-Discovery Default Standard. This
`
`deadline has already passed. The parties have exchanged these disclosures.
`
`2.
`
`Joinder of Other Parties and Amendment of Pleadings. This deadline has
`
`already passed.
`
`3.
`
`Application to Court for Protective Order. This deadline has already passed.
`
`The Court has entered a protective order. See D.I. 117.
`
`4.
`
`Papers Filed Under Seal. When filing papers under seal, counsel shall follow
`
`the District Court’s policy on Filing Sealed Civil Documents in CM/ECF and section G of the
`
`Administrative Procedures Governing Filing and Service by Electronic Means. A redacted version
`
`of any sealed document shall be filed electronically within seven (7) days of the filing of the
`
`sealed document.
`
`Should any party intend to request to seal or redact all or any portion of a transcript of
`
`a court proceeding (including a teleconference), such party should expressly note that intent at
`
`
`
`Case 1:14-cv-01430-CJB Document 504 Filed 04/25/22 Page 2 of 15 PageID #: 28180
`
`the start of the court proceeding. Should the party subsequently choose to make a request for
`
`sealing or redaction, it must, promptly after the completion of the transcript, file with the Court
`
`a motion for sealing/redaction, and include as attachments: (1) a copy of the complete transcript
`
`highlighted so the Court can easily identify and read the text proposed to be sealed/redacted; and
`
`(2) a copy of the proposed redacted/sealed transcript. With its request, the party seeking
`
`redactions must demonstrate why there is good cause for the redactions and why disclosure of
`
`the redacted material would work a clearly defined and serious injury to the party seeking
`
`redaction.
`
`5.
`
`Courtesy Copies. The parties shall provide to the Court two (2) courtesy copies
`
`of all briefs and any other document filed in support of any briefs (i.e., appendices, exhibits,
`
`declarations, affidavits, etc.). This provision also applies to papers filed under seal. Unless ordered
`
`differently by the Court, such copies must be provided to the Court by no later than noon the
`
`business day after the filing is made electronically.
`
`6.
`
`Disclosures. Absent agreement among the parties, and approval of the Court:
`
`a.
`
` By September 14, 2022, Plaintiff shall elect no more than 36 total claims
`
`and provide final infringement contentions.
`
`b.
`
`By October 12, 2022, Defendant shall elect no more than 36 prior art
`
`references and provide final invalidity contentions.
`
`c.
`
`The parties, if they think it necessary, should set times in the schedule for
`
`reducing the number of asserted claims and asserted prior art used for anticipation and
`
`obviousness combinations. The usual points where the Court will consider such limits are before
`
`claim construction and after a ruling on claim construction.
`
`7.
`
`Discovery. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, the limitations on discovery
`
`set forth in Local Rule 26.1 shall be strictly observed.

`
`
`Case 1:14-cv-01430-CJB Document 504 Filed 04/25/22 Page 3 of 15 PageID #: 28181
`
`a.
`
`Discovery Cut Off. All discovery in this case shall be initiated so that it
`
`will be completed on or before August 31, 2022.
`
`b.
`
`Document Production. Document production shall be substantially
`
`complete by July 11, 2022.
`
`c.
`
`Requests for Admission. A maximum of 25 requests for admission are
`
`permitted for each side. Deadline for service of Requests for Admission has passed, except that
`
`Elm may serve any additional Requests for Admission related to the Representative Products no
`
`later than July 18, 2022.
`
`d.
`
`Interrogatories.
`
`i.
`
`Each side has served the maximum allowable total of 30
`
`interrogatories, except that Elm may serve no more than three additional interrogatories related to the
`
`representative products by July 18, 2022. These limits include contention interrogatories.
`
`ii.
`
`The Court encourages the parties to serve and respond to contention
`
`interrogatories early in the case. In the absence of agreement among the parties, contention
`
`interrogatories, if served, shall first be addressed by the party with the burden of proof. The adequacy
`
`of all interrogatory answers shall, in part, be judged by the level of detail each party provides; i.e., the
`
`more detail a party provides, the more detail a party shall receive.
`
`e.
`
`Depositions.
`
`i.
`
`Limitation on Hours for Deposition Discovery. Plaintiff is limited to
`
`a total of 75 hours of taking testimony of party fact witnesses by deposition upon oral examination,
`
`excluding depositions of expert witnesses. Each Defendant is limited to 50 hours of taking testimony
`
`of party fact witnesses by deposition upon oral examination, excluding depositions of expert
`
`witnesses. The time limits under this Paragraph do not include third-party depositions taken pursuant
`
`to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 45. The time limitations set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
`
`3
`
`
`
`Case 1:14-cv-01430-CJB Document 504 Filed 04/25/22 Page 4 of 15 PageID #: 28182
`
`30(d)(1) shall apply, except where an individual is presented for a deposition pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6),
`
`in which case a deposition may continue for multiple days, subject to the seven hour per day limit. By
`
`agreement of the parties, depositions conducted in a foreign language will be allocated at a factor of
`
`1.5, such that each 1.5 hours of deposition time in a foreign language will count as one deposition
`
`hour.
`
`ii.
`
`Location of Depositions. Any party or representative (officer, director,
`
`or managing agent) of a party filing a civil action in this Court must ordinarily be required, upon
`
`request, to submit to a deposition at a place designated within this district. Exceptions to this general
`
`rule may be made by order of the Court. A defendant who becomes a counterclaimant, cross-claimant,
`
`or third-party plaintiff shall be considered as having filed an action in this Court for the purpose of
`
`this provision.
`
`f.
`
`Disclosure of Expert Testimony.
`
`i.
`
`Expert Reports. For the party who has the initial burden of proof on
`
`the subject matter, the initial Federal Rule 26(a)(2) disclosure of expert testimony is due on or before
`
`November 16, 2022. The supplemental disclosure to contradict or rebut evidence on the same matter
`
`identified by another party is due on or before December 22, 2022. Reply expert reports from the
`
`party with the initial burden of proof are due on or before January 12, 2023. No other expert reports
`
`will be permitted without either the consent of all parties or leave of the Court. Along with the
`
`submissions of the expert reports, the parties shall advise of the dates and times of their experts’
`
`availability for deposition.
`
`ii.
`
`Expert Report Supplementation. The parties agree they will not permit
`
`expert declarations to be filed in connection with motions briefing (including case-dispositive motions,
`
`apart).

`iii.
`
`Objections to Expert Testimony. To the extent any objection to expert
`
`testimony is made pursuant to the principles announced in Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharm., Inc., 509 U.S.
`
`579 (1993), as incorporated in Federal Rule of Evidence 702, it shall be made by motion no later than

`
`i.
`
`Any discovery motion filed without first complying with the following
`
`procedures will be denied without prejudice to renew pursuant to these procedures.
`
`ii.
`
`Should counsel find, after good faith efforts—including verbal
`
`communication among Delaware and Lead Counsel for all parties to the dispute—that they are unable
`
`to resolve a discovery matter or a dispute regarding a protective order, the parties involved in the
`
`discovery matter or protective order dispute shall file a joint letter in substantially the following form:
`
`Dear Judge Burke:
`
`The parties in the above-referenced matter write to
`request the scheduling of a discovery teleconference.
`
`The following attorneys, including at least one
`Delaware Counsel and at least one Lead Counsel per
`party, participated in a verbal meet-and-confer (in

`
`also file a “Motion For Teleconference To Resolve Discovery Dispute.” The suggested text for this

`
`also consult and follow Judge Burke’s “Guidelines for Discovery Disputes,” which is found in the

`“Guidelines” tab on Judge Burke’s section of the District Court’s website. The parties shall also
`
`comply with paragraph 5 regarding the submission of courtesy copies; if they fail to do so, the
`
`telephone conference may be cancelled.
`
`v.
`
`Should the Court find further briefing necessary upon the conclusion
`
`of the telephone conference, the Court will order it. Alternatively, the Court may choose to resolve
`
`the dispute prior to the telephone conference and will, in that event, cancel the conference.

`
`As noted in the Patent Pretrial Order, the parties shall include in their joint proposed
`
`pretrial order, among other things:
`
`a.
`
`a request for a specific number of hours for their trial presentations, as
`
`well as a requested number of days, based on the assumption that in a typical jury trial day (in
`
`which there is not jury selection, jury instruction, or deliberations), there will be 5 ½ to 6 ½ hours
`
`of trial time, and in a typical bench trial day there will be 6 to 7 hours of trial time;
`
`b.
`
`their position as to whether the Court should allow objections to efforts
`
`to impeach a witness with prior testimony, including objections based on lack of completeness
`
`and/or lack of inconsistency;
`
`c.
`
`their position as to whether the Court should rule at trial on objections
`
`to expert testimony as beyond the scope of prior expert disclosures, taking time from the parties’
`
`trial presentation to argue and decide such objections, or defer ruling on all such objections unless
`
`renewed in writing following trial, subject to the proviso that a party prevailing on such a post-
`
`trial objection will be entitled to have all of its costs associated with a new trial paid for by the
`
`party that elicited the improper expert testimony at the earlier trial; and;
`
`d.
`
`their position as to how to make motions for judgment as a matter of law,
`
`whether it be immediately at the appropriate point during trial or at a subsequent break, whether
`
`the jury should be in or out of the courtroom, and whether such motions may be supplemented
`
`in writing.
`
`20.

`
`requests and responses thereto shall be set forth in the proposed pretrial order. Each SIDE shall

`
`
`Case 1:14-cv-01430-CJB Document 504 Filed 04/25/22 Page 12 of 15 PageID #: 28190
`
`a maximum of three (3) single-spaced pages of argument, and the party making the in limine
`
`request may add a maximum of one (1) additional single-spaced page in reply in support of its
`
`request. If more than one party is supporting or opposing an in limine request, such support or
`
`opposition shall be combined in a single three (3)-page single-spaced submission (and, if the
`
`moving party, a single one (1)-page single-spaced reply), unless otherwise ordered by the Court.
`
`No separate briefing shall be submitted on in limine requests, unless otherwise permitted by the
`
`Court.
`
`21.
`
`Jury Instructions, Voir Dire, and Special Verdict Forms. Where a case is to

`
`22.
`
`Trial. This matter is scheduled for a __ day ____ jury trial beginning at 9:30 a.m.
`
`on _________, 202_, with the subsequent trial days beginning at 9:00 a.m. Until the case is
`
`submitted to the jury for deliberations, the jury will be excused each day at 4:30 p.m. The trial will
`
`be timed, as counsel will be allocated a total number of hours in which to present their respective
`
`cases.
`
`23.
`
`Judgment on Verdict and Post-Trial Status Report. Within seven (7) days
`
`after a jury returns a verdict in any portion of a jury trial, the parties shall jointly file a form of
`
`order to enter judgment on the verdict. At the same time, the parties shall file a joint status report,
`
`indicating among other things how the case should proceed and listing any post-trial motions
`
`each party intends to file.
