`
`JOINT INTERIM STATUS REPORT
`
`Plaintiff Peloton Interactive, Inc. and Defendant iFIT Inc. submit this Joint Interim Status
`
`Report pursuant to the Court’s Scheduling Order (D.I. 33, as amended, D.I. 194).
`
`1.
`
`Procedural History
`
`Peloton filed this case on May 15, 2020, against iFIT (f/k/a/ ICON Health & Fitness, Inc.)
`
`for infringing two of Peloton’s patents (U.S. Patent Nos. 10,486,026 and 10,639,521) and engaging
`
`in false advertising, unfair competition, and deceptive business practices. D.I. 1. iFIT filed its
`
`Answer and Counterclaims on July 13, 2020, asserting, inter alia, counterclaims for infringement
`
`of two patents (U.S. Patent No. 6,601,016 and 7,556,590), false advertising, and deceptive trade
`
`practices (D.I. 9), which it amended on August 28, 2020 (D.I. 27). On May 26, 2021, the Court
`
`granted-in-part and denied-in-part Peloton’s Partial Motion to Dismiss [iFIT’s] First Amended
`
`Counterclaims. D.I. 104 (dismissing portions of iFIT’s counterclaim Counts III and IV).
`
`

`

`Case 1:20-cv-00662-RGA Document 226 Filed 01/21/22 Page 2 of 4 PageID #: 5490
`
`The Court held Markman hearings on June 24 and June 25, 2021, and an evidentiary
`
`hearing on September 1, 2021, and issued decisions and related orders on the disputed claim terms
`
`(D.I. 132, 141, 144, 154).1
`
`Fact discovery closes on February 22, 2022, and expert discovery closes on June 10, 2022.
`
`D.I. 194. Case dispositive and Daubert motions are due on July 8, 2022, and a pretrial conference
`
`is scheduled for September 30, 2022. Id.
`
`The Court has set a date of October 17, 2022, for the start of jury trial in this case or in the
`
`related case, Peloton Interactive, Inc. v Echelon Fitness Multimedia, LLC, C.A. No. 19-1903-
`
`RGA, depending on which case is first prepared to go to trial. See D.I. 33, ¶ 16; D.I. 194.
`
`2.
`
`Progress of Discovery to Date
`
`The parties have been diligently working to complete fact discovery by the February 22,
`
`2022 deadline. The parties have served and responded to several sets of document requests and
`
`interrogatories, and substantially completed document production as of June 2021. The parties
`
`will serve final infringement and invalidity contentions in February. Depositions of fact witnesses
`
`are ongoing. Based on witness availability, it appears that a few depositions will need to proceed
`
`after the current close of fact discovery. To the extent the fact discovery deadline needs to be
`
`extended to accommodate these depositions, the parties will confer in good faith and raise any
`
`issues to the Court as necessary.
`
`1
`The Court’s resolution of the parties’ disputes regarding the claim terms “performance
`parameters” and “performance data” is still pending. See D.I. 134; D.I. 132.

`
`3.
`
` Issues Pending Before the Court
`
`On January 12, 2022, iFIT moved to stay Peloton’s patent infringement claims pending
`
`resolution of IPRs for Peloton’s ’026 and ’521 patents. D.I. 215.2 The IPR petitions were filed
`
`by Echelon Fitness Multimedia, LLC and instituted on March 3, 2021 for the ’026 patent and on
`
`November 18, 2021 for the ’521 patent; iFIT moved to join the IPR of the ’521 patent on December
`
`17, 2021 and that motion is pending before the PTAB.3 Peloton opposes iFIT’s motion and will
`
`respond in due course. Briefing on iFIT’s motion will be completed, at the earliest, on February
`
`8, 2022. D.I. 223.
`
`The parties have no other issues to present to the Court at this time, but are available at the
`
`Court’s convenience to discuss the status of this case.
