`
`IV.
`
`PROPOSED AGENDA FOR PRE-TRIAL CONFERENCE
`
`Rovi proposes the following agenda for the pre-trial conference:
`
`1. Discussion of Trial Scheduling and Logistics
`
`2. Resolution of Motions in Limine
`
`3. Resolution of High Priority Objections
`
`4. Resolution of Any Outstanding Motions
`
`V.
`
`ESTIMATED DATE AND LENGTH OF WITNESSES
`
`According to Order No. 3, the hearing is scheduled for six days (January 21-24, 27-28,
`
`2020). Comcast has taken the untenable position in this Investigation that every witness (other
`
`than a corporate designee) should be called live – even if the sole purpose of their testimony is to
`
`address one short statement in a prior deposition in which both parties were present. In Rovi’s
`
`view, Comcast’s position will result in a longer and highly inefficient hearing as Rovi is forced
`
`to call several witnesses (Comcast and third-party) to introduce testimony already set forth in
`
`their respective deposition transcripts. Rovi’s Amended Tentative Witness List explicitly
`
`reserved the right to call Comcast and third-party employees, Doc No. 688504 at 13-18 (Sept.
