(Answering Brief due 3/9/2021., Reply Brief due 3/23/2021.). Signed by Judge Colm F. Connolly on 2/4/2021. (fms)
February 3, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 693 ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' motion regarding a protective order dispute, (D.I. 684), and the related briefing and supplemental submission, (D.I. 685; D.I. 687; D.I. 688), and having held a teleconference on the issue with the parties on February 1, 2021, hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) Paragraph 43 of the Protective Order provides, in part, that the "Designated Material and all information derived therefrom may be used... only for purposes of [this case and one other litigation matter not at issue here]... [u]nless otherwise ordered by the Court[.]" (D.I. 96 at para. 43); (2) Now Defendant Intel Corp. ("Intel") comes forward with a reason to modify the protective order: it wishes to disclose a very limited amount of information (relating to the cost or value of two of Plaintiff VLSI Technology LLC's ("VLSI") patents-in-suit) that is purportedly subject to the protective order (the "information at issue") for the purposes of further amending Intel's complaint in a related antitrust case, Intel Corp. v. Fortress Inv. Grp. LLC, Case No. 3:19-cv-07651-EMC (N.D. Cal.), (the "antitrust case").; (3) Modification of the protective order requires the moving party to show good cause, using a balancing test and various factors set out in Pansy v. Borough of Stroudsburg, 23 F.3d 772, 786-87, 790 (3d Cir. 1994). See also PhishMe, Inc. v. Wombat Sec. Techs., Inc., Civil Action No. 16-403-LPS-CJB, 2017 WL 4138961, at *2 (D. Del. Sept. 8, 2017).; (4) Here, the relevant Pansy factors, see Arnold v. Pa., Dept. of Transp., 477 F.3d 105, 108 (3d Cir. 2007) (listing the factors), balance in Intel's favor: (i) As to the first Pansy factor (the interest in privacy of the party seeking protection), VLSI does not seem to raise this as a concern. (D.I. 687) As to at least some of the information at issue (i.e., a small portion of VLSI's damages contentions, including VLSI's view of the damages owed regarding infringement of one of the patents-in-suit here), the Court doubts that the material should be covered by the protective order in the first place. And to the extent the other information at issue is properly subject to that order, this first factor would be neutral, as it seems like there is every expectation that the information will also be kept under seal in the antitrust case, (D.I. 685 at 3), and Intel is not seeking to disclose it to the public.; (ii) As to the second Pansy factor (whether the information is being sought for a legitimate purpose or an improper purpose), this factor favors Intel, in that it seems like Intel's purpose for seeking relief from the protective order is legitimate. In the related antitrust case, the District Judge, in recently granting a motion to dismiss Intels complaint: (a) suggested that the information at issue here could be relevant to a further amended complaint; and (b) faulted Intel for not having sought leave of this Court to modify the protective order here, so that Intel could have included that information in its now-dismissed prior complaint. See Intel Corp. v. Fortress Inv. Grp., LLC, Case No. 3:19-cv-07651-EMC, D.I. 230 at 24-26 & n.9 (N.D. Cal. Jan. 6, 2021). The Court is mindful that there is good reason why parties would generally not want confidential information provided pursuant to a protective order in one litigation to be used to trigger additional lawsuits in other courts. And it would not expect to see such requests very often or to grant them very often. But here, the Court views Intel's request as both narrow and legitimate, in light of the fact that: (a) the information at issue is particularly cabined in nature; (b) the antitrust case implicates the very patents-in-suit that are at issue in this case; and (c) the District Judge in the antitrust case has noted the potential relevance of the information at issue to a forthcoming motion.; (iii) As to the third Pansy factor (the prevention of embarrassment, and whether that embarrassment would be particularly serious), VLSI does not argue that the information at issue is embarrassing. (D.I. 687) And, as noted above, much of the information will likely remain under seal in the antitrust case. So this factor favors Intel, or at least is neutral.; (iv) As to the fifth Pansy factor (whether sharing of the information among litigants would promote fairness and efficiency), this factor favors Intel, in light of the fact that the District Judge in the antitrust case has indicated that certain of the material could be relevant to core disputed issues regarding motion practice in that case, and the District Judge in the antitrust case has permitted Intel to file a further amended complaint by early March.; (v) Pansy factors four, six and seven do not seem to apply here.; and (vi) As to the additional factor noted in Pansy relating to "reliance by the original parties on the confidentiality order[,]" Pansy, 23 F.3d at 790, VLSI cites to paragraph 43 of the protective order and argues that it relied on the order's statement that confidential information in this case would never "be used in any other way whatsoever." (D.I. 687 at 1, 3 (internal quotation marks and citation omitted) (quoting D.I. 96 at para. 43)) But VLSI selectively omits reference to paragraph 43's statement that this restriction can be altered either by agreement of the parties (as has apparently already happened at times in this case) or by a Court order (which is what Intel is seeking to do here). (D.I. 96 at para. 43; see also id. at para. 65); and (5) The Court thus finds, after weighing the above factors, that Intel has done enough to show good cause to modify the protective order. That said, as discussed during the teleconference, the information Intel seeks to disclose, (D.I. 685 at 2), is much narrower than what is found in the entire text of the documents Intel attached as exhibits A-C of its letter brief. By no later than February 8, 2021, Intel shall provide the Court and VLSI with an indication of the narrow portions of those documents that it seeks to utilize in the antitrust case, so that the Court can confirm that those portions match the description of need provided in Intels letter brief..

January 13, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 674 ORAL ORDER: Having reviewed Defendant Intel Corporation's "Motion to Redact Portions of the November 24, 2020 Motion to Stay Hearing Transcript and November 25, 2020 Order" (D.I. #671 ), and the exhibits attached thereto, IT IS ORDERED that the motion is GRANTED. To overcome the strong presumption of public access to judicial records, "[t]he movant must show that the material is the kind of information that courts will protect and that disclosure will work a clearly defined and serious injury to the party seeking closure." In re Avandia Mktg., Sales Pracs. and Prods. Liab. Litig., 924 F.3d 662, 672-73 (3d Cir. 2019). Intel's proposed redactions are, or relate directly to, the terms of an agreement between Intel and a third party, and I find that they contain the kind of commercial information that courts will protect. Moreover, the proposed redactions do not relate to "the core of the parties dispute," nor were they central to the Court's decision on the Motion to Stay. Mosaid Techs. Inc. v. LSI Corp., 878 F. Supp. 2d 503, 508 (D. Del. 2012). I also find that disclosure would work a clearly defined and serious injury to Intels position in future contract negotiations. Having conducted the requisite balancing process, I find that the harm of disclosing the information outweighs the importance of the disclosure to the public. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that any publicly available copies of the transcript of the November 24, 2020 hearing, and the November 25, 2020 Memorandum Order, shall be the redacted versions attached as Exhibits C and D to Intel's motion.

June 19, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 623 ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Defendant's motion for leave to amend its answer, defenses and counterclaims ("Motion"), (D.I. 255), by which it seeks to add counterclaims and corresponding defenses for unenforceability of three of the five asserted patents (the '633 patent, the '027 patent and the '331 patent) due to inequitable conduct ("the inequitable conduct claims") and the affirmative defense of unclean hands (the "unclean hands defense"), as well as the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 256; D.I. 273; D.I. 287), hereby ORDERS that the Motion is GRANTED. Plaintiff challenged the Motion on two grounds: (1) that Defendant unduly delayed in bringing it (and relatedly, that this delay demonstrated that the Motion was brought in bad faith); and (2) that grant of the Motion would cause undue prejudice to Plaintiff. (D.I. 273 at 5-14) (Plaintiff did not challenge the Motion on futility grounds, noting that it would instead reserve such arguments for a forthcoming motion to dismiss/strike the claims/defenses, were the Motion granted.) (Id. at 5, 15) With regard to undue delay, Plaintiff is probably correct that most or all of the documents and facts underlying the inequitable conduct claims were publicly available to Defendant prior to the date when Defendant filed its initial Answer on April 9, 2019, (D.I. 128), the date by which Plaintiff argues Defendant should have timely brought these allegations. And it is also probably true that a good bit (though certainly not all) of the material related to Defendants' unclean hands defense was available to Defendant by then. But it is also true that (especially in this large, complex case) it could have reasonably taken Defendant some time thereafter to process the information related to the instant claims/defenses, figure out whether they amounted to viable claims/defenses and then bring those claims/defenses forward. (D.I. 287 at 5) More importantly, Defendant's motion was filed on the date set out as the deadline for amendment of pleadings in the Scheduling Order (a date, so far as the Court can tell, that both Plaintiff and Defendant proposed to the District Court). (D.I. 36; D.I. 40 at para. 2; D.I. 253) It would be the unusual case where a Court had previously determined (at the parties' request) that amendment could be allowed by a certain date without causing harm to the case schedule, and yet thereafter the Court would nevertheless find a claim filed by that deadline to be untimely. See Invensas Corp. v. Renesas Elecs. Corp., Civil Action No. 11-448-GMS-CJB, 2013 WL 1776112, at *3 (D. Del. Apr. 24, 2013); Butamax Advanced Biofuels LLC v. Gevo, Inc., Civ. No. 11-54-SLR, 2012 WL 2365905, at *2 (D. Del. June 21, 2012). With regard to the undue prejudice issue, because the Motion was filed prior to the deadline for amending pleadings, it is hard for Plaintiff to convincingly argue that it would be unduly prejudiced by the addition of the claims/defenses. The Medicines Co. v. Teva Parenteral Meds., Inc., C.A. No. 09-750-ER (Consolidated), 2011 WL 13135647, at *25 & n.18 (D. Del. Aug. 26, 2011); Butamax, 2012 WL 2365905, at *2. Additionally, undue prejudice is not likely to occur via grant of the Motion because: (1) Plaintiff is familiar with many of the underlying facts relating to the claims/defenses at issue and its counsel represents many of the third parties who are relevant to the inequitable conduct claims, (D.I. 287 at 8-9), so since the filing of the Motion, it has likely developed a good sense of its response to the claims/defenses; and (2) since the filing of the Motion, the case schedule has changed, and no trial date is now set, meaning there could be time to address these issues prior to any trial. Lastly, the Court agrees with Defendant that although the case is currently stayed as to the '026 and '552 patents, since the arguments as to this Motion were not patent-specific, the Motion should be and is GRANTED as to the unclean hands defense in its entirety. (D.I. 617 at 1) However, because it is clear that Plaintiff now intends to challenge that defense on a patent-by-patent basis, (id. at 2), the Court ORDERS that Plaintiff's deadline to file a motion to dismiss or strike that defense based on any argument uniquely related to the '026 or '552 patents is STAYED until 21 days after the stay regarding those two patents is lifted by the Court, (id. at 1). Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 6/19/2020. (dlb)

May 15, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 617 Joint Letter to The Honorable Christopher J. Burke from Brian E. Farnan regarding Impact of Order Partially Staying Case on Pending Motions - re 615 Oral Order,,,,,,,,,,,,,. (Farnan, Brian)
May 15, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 616 NOTICE OF SERVICE of Plaintiff VLSI Technology LLC's Amended Identification of No More Than Eighteen Asserted Patent Claims Pursuant to the Court's April 22, 2019 Memorandum Order (D.I. 136) and May 8, 2020 Oral Order (D.I. 615) filed by VLSI Technology LLC.(Farnan, Brian)
May 8, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 615 ORAL ORDER The Court, having considered Defendant Intel Corporation's ("Defendant") motion to stay pending inter partes review ("IPR") proceedings ("Motion"), (D.I. 585), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 586; D.I. 592; D.I. 596), and having considered the three stay-related factors, hereby ORDERS that the Motion be GRANTED-IN-PART. The decision here would have been more difficult, but for a very sensible alternate proposal made by Plaintiff VLSI Technology LLC ("Plaintiff") which, in granting this motion in part, the Court is adopting. In its answering brief, Plaintiff agreed: (1) to stay the case as to two of the four patents-in-suit where there are currently asserted claims under review in IPR proceedings (i.e., the '026 patent and the '552 patents), and (2) to drop one currently asserted claim of the '331 patent. (D.I. 592 at 2) This proposal brings with it the chance to maximize efficiency for all parties and the Court. It allows the case (a case pending for nearly two years, in which the Court and the parties have already invested a tremendous amount of time and energy) to move forward regarding the asserted claims of two patents (the '027 patent and the '331 patent) that will be unaffected by the IPR proceedings, and to be ready for trial on the asserted claims of those patents (if necessary) once the District Court resolves summary judgment motions that are set to be filed later this year. And if Defendant is correct that the asserted claims of the '026 and '552 patents will be found to be invalid by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, (D.I. 586 at 9), then such a stay will ensure that no wasted work is done by the parties or by the Court as to those two patents between now and when the IPRs conclude by February 2021. And alternately, if any of the asserted claims of the '026 and '552 patents are not found invalid in the IPRs by early 2021, the District Court will retain flexibility as to how to handle that situation (in that it could then decide to hold one later-scheduled trial on all remaining patents/asserted claims, after any remaining pre-trial work concludes as to the '026 and '552 patents, or it could then decide to move forward with trial as to the '027 and '331 patents and put any surviving asserted claims of the '026 and '552 patents on a separate trial track with a separate trial date). Therefore, the case is STAYED with regard to the '026 and '552 patents until further order of the Court. The Court also ORDERS that by no later than May 15, 2020, the parties shall submit a joint letter, of no more than three single-spaced pages, advising the Court and the District Court as to which portions of the other currently pending motions (D.I. 255; D.I. 257; D.I. 276; D.I. 580) need not be decided at this time (unless the Court or the District Court determines otherwise) because those portions deal with the '026 and '552 patents. The Court further ORDERS the parties to jointly notify the Court by letter within 10 days of the issuance of a Final Written Decision in the IPR proceedings (so that the Court can determine whether to lift the stay at that point).Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 5/8/2020. (dlb)

It hereby ORDERS that with regard to this dispute: (1) By no later than January 10, 2020, any party opposing the Motion shall file a responsive letter, not to exceed five (5) single-spaced pages.; (2) By no later than January 14, 2020: (a) the moving party may file a reply letter, not to exceed two (2) single-spaced pages; (b) the moving party shall also file a one-page "Motion to Strike" on the docket; and (c) both parties shall jointly file a letter requesting a teleconference to address the Motion.

January 7, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 514 ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' letters with regard to Plaintiff's fourth discovery dispute regarding materials that Defendant provides to OEMs, such as ME/CSME BIOS Extensions ("MEBX"), Flash Image Customization Tool ("FITC"), and ME/CSME firmware kits ("Motion") (D.I. 426 at 4; D.I. 446 at 4), and having heard oral argument, (D.I. 459 (hereinafter "Tr.")), HEREBY ORDERS that Plaintiff's Motion is DENIED for the following reasons: (1) As to the FITC executable code, Defendant has represented that it has produced the FITC source code in executable form. (Tr. at 58, 60) In light of Defendant's representation, the Court is not aware that there is anything more that it can compel Defendant to produce. (2) As to MEBXs and ME/CSME firmware kits, the Court understands that Plaintiff initially requested an overly broad group of "[a]ll" documents relating to these topics. (Tr. at 59; D.I. 455 at 66 (referring to D.I. 173, ex. 18 at 8 and RFPs 135-36); D.I. 446 at 4 n.10) The Court further understands that Defendant subsequently identified a narrower set of relevant, responsive documents relating to these topics and that it was in the process of collecting and producing them. (Tr. at 59, 62) Beyond that, Plaintiff has not provided the Court with a basis to believe that there are relevant MEBX or ME/CSME firmware kit materials that are in Defendants possession and that have not been produced. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 1/7/2020. (dlb)

January 3, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 503 NOTICE OF SERVICE of Plaintiff VLSI Technology LLC's Identification of Eighteen Asserted Patent Claims Pursuant to the Court's April 22, 2019 Memorandum Order (D.I. 136) filed by VLSI Technology LLC.(Farnan, Brian)
January 3, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 502 ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' letters with regard to Plaintiff's third discovery dispute, (i.e., the dispute as to Defendant's ME/CSME manifest files, related source code, and specifications) ("Motion") (D.I. 426 at 3-4; D.I. 446 at 4), and having heard oral argument, (D.I. 459 (hereinafter "Tr.")), HEREBY ORDERS as follows: (1) With regard to the manifest files, the Court can understand why such files (at least those that describe how instructions relating to the accused functionality are loaded) are relevant to Plaintiff's claims of infringement relating to the '331 patent. (D.I. 426 at 3 (citing exhibits)) Indeed, in its arguments opposing the Motion, Defendant does not primarily focus on relevance as a defense to non-production of those types of manifest files. (Tr. at 42, 46-49, 53, 60-61) As to responsiveness, Defendant has determined not to challenge the request for such manifest files on this ground, conceding for our purposes that such files could be responsive at least to Plaintiff's requests seeking "Specifications." (Tr. at 48-49, 53; see also D.I. 426 at 4) With regard to the parties' dispute as to whether such files would be human-readable (and thus even usable), (e.g., D.I. 448 at para. 9; Tr. at 45, 50), the Court is not certain that the content at issue would be unreadable, and if the material is otherwise relevant, the Court cannot conclude that this defense to non-production is a good one. This leaves Defendant's assertions about undue burden, wherein it represented that: (a) manifest files do not actually exist as standalone files; (b) to produce the relevant content via production of large portions of executable code would create significant "security concerns[;]" and (c) thus, it has proposed providing Plaintiff with what it asserts is the "same information" by presenting certain XML files. (Tr. at 49-51, 61; D.I. 446 at 4; D.I. 448 at para. 7) As a practical matter, before ordering Defendant to produce the executable code referenced above (and before further investigating the "security concerns" referenced by Defendant), it makes sense for the Court to know whether Plaintiff agrees that the XML files referenced by Defendant do indeed provide it with sufficient information. To that end, this part of the Motion is GRANTED in that in the parties' January 9 letter, (see D.I. 499), they should update the Court on the status of the production of a representative set of such XML files. (2) With regard to the dispute over the "build tool" that creates the manifest file from the XML files, (Tr. at 44, 53; D.I. 426 at 4), Plaintiff has argued that without access to it, the XML files would "do us little good[,]" (Tr. at 54). The Court just does not have enough information, one way or the other, to understand if that is correct or not. So for now, this portion of its Motion is DENIED, but subject to Plaintiff's ability to re-raise the issue in the future.; (3) As to the Plaintiff's request for all "Specifications relating to ME/CSME manifests[,]" (D.I. 426 at 4), the Court understands that Defendant was in the process of producing some additional materials, (D.I. 446 at 4). Beyond that, however, Plaintiff did not provide the Court with sufficient information to determine that there likely exists additional, relevant un-produced such specifications, and it did not further press its case for these documents during oral argument. (Tr. at 41-46, 51-54) For these reasons, this portion of its Motion is also DENIED. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 1/3/2020. (mlc)

January 3, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 500 NOTICE to Take Deposition of Jason Kennedy on 1/10/2020 (Amended) filed by VLSI Technology LLC.(Farnan, Brian)
January 2, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 499 ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' letters with regard to Plaintiff's second discovery dispute, (i.e., the dispute regarding Power Management Controller ("PMC") firmware source code and specifications) ("Motion") (D.I. 426 at 2-3; D.I. 446 at 3), and having heard oral argument, (D.I. 459 (hereinafter "Tr.")), HEREBY ORDERS as follows: (1) As to the firmware source code, the Court understands that Defendant has agreed to produce it and, as of the date of oral argument, was in the process of obtaining it so that it could be produced. (Tr. at 30-31) As a result, the Court DENIES Plaintiff's motion as MOOT and ORDERS that the parties shall file a joint letter by no later than January 9, 2020, indicating: (a) whether Defendant has made this source code production or (b) if not, why not, and whether any further Court intervention is required. (2) As to "Specifications that relate specifically to the PMC[,]" (D.I. 426 at 2), the Motion is GRANTED-IN-PART and DENIED-IN-PART. The Court understands that the parties do not disagree that at least some of the requested documentation is relevant; for its part, the Court agrees that Plaintiff has demonstrated relevance to the extent that it has explained why at least certain PMC specifications relating to the PMC's role in coordinating transitions to and from a low power state are relevant to Plaintiff's infringement allegations regarding the '331 patent. (Id.) In search of such relevant materials, Plaintiff initially made a very broad request for "[a]ll Specifications" relating to accused technologies. (Id., ex. 1 at 10) It then further attempted to refine that request here to one seeking: (a) three specifically identified specifications, (id. at 2 & ex. 17 at 2; Tr. at 36); (b) "PMC Firmware Architecture Specifications" and "PMC Hardware Architecture Specifications" more generally, (D.I. 426 at 2 (emphasis omitted)), or (c) that Defendant be ordered to search a particular database by keyword for "specifications created by [Defendant] that have the word or acronym PMC on the title page," (Tr. at 36). As for (a), Defendant has not articulated why those three specifications are irrelevant or would be unduly burdensome to produce; it should produce those documents if it can locate them. In the January 9 letter, Defendant shall indicate whether it has located these documents after a diligent search and (if so) if it has produced those documents. (Tr. at 32) As to (b), the Court agrees that Defendant should have to perform a further diligent search (e.g., via interviews with engineers) to reasonably attempt to target currently-unproduced specifications that are relevant to the infringement allegations regarding the '331 patent. During oral argument, Defendant asserted that it was in the process of doing so.

December 23, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 493 REDACTED VERSION of #475 Letter by VLSI Technology LLC. (Farnan, Brian)
December 23, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 492 ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' letter briefs regarding Defendant's request for a protective order preventing Plaintiff's deposition of Defendant's former CEO Brian Krzanich, (D.I. 449, 468) and having determined that the issues are clear and the decision is not a close call, HEREBY resolves Defendant's motion on the papers and ORDERS that today's teleconference is CANCELLED. Defendant's Motion is GRANTED for the following reasons: (1) The Court agrees with Defendant that the "apex doctrine" --- a doctrine that has previously been applied by other courts in this Circuit and by our Court in the past, see, e.g., In re Jevic Holding Corp., 526 B.R. 547, 556 (D. Del. 2014) (citation omitted); In re Intel Corp. Microprocessor Antitrust Litig., MDL Docket No. 05-1717-JJF, 2008 WL 5377979, at *3 (D. Del. Dec. 18, 2008) --- is appropriately utilized here. Thus, to the extent that Defendant demonstrates that the doctrine's factors militate in favor of its position, it has met its burden to show good cause for the protective order pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c). Cf. Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b) ("[T]he court must limit the frequency or extent of discovery [sought]... if [it]... is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative, or can be obtained from some other source that is more convenient, less burdensome, or less expensive[.]"); (2) Mr. Krzanich's status as a former CEO of Defendant does not suggest to the Court that the apex doctrine is any less applicable here, as the circumstances of such deposition requests still implicate the need to be mindful of preventing abuse and harassment as to such executives, and because Mr. Krzanich continues to serve at the "apex" (i.e., as CEO) of another corporate entity. (D.I. 449 at 1; Robertson v. McNeil-PPC Inc., No.LA CV 11-09050 JAK (SSx), 2014 WL 12576817, at *17 (C.D. Cal. Jan. 13, 2014)); (3) With regard to the areas of inquiry that Plaintiff seeks to press with Mr. Krzanich, (D.I. 468 at 2), it is abundantly clear that Mr. Krzanich does not have "unique" knowledge of these subjects. Jevic, 526 B.R. at 556. And while he might have some "personal" knowledge of the subject matter, id., the statements that Plaintiff relies on to demonstrate such knowledge are so high-level, generic and/or anodyne that were they sufficient to satisfy the apex doctrine's requirements, the doctrine would have no teeth at all. (See e.g., D.I. 468, ex. 4 (Plaintiff citing to an e-mail in which Mr. Krzanich was receiving requests for information from other Board members as to an issue, and where Mr. Krzanich did not independently know how to describe the issue and thus asked other Defendant employees who had more information about the issue to provide insight); id., ex. 5 (Plaintiff citing to an e-mail in which Mr. Krzanich states that he is "proud" of his employees for their work on a product); id., ex. 8 (Plaintiff citing to an e-mail message where Mr. Krzanich simply asks Defendant employees to read the company's Code of Conduct and emphasizes how important it is to abide by that document's contents).; (4) Relatedly, the information at issue surely could have been obtained from "lower[-]level [Defendant] employees or through less burdensome means[,]" Jevic, 526 B.R. at 556. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 12/23/2019. (mlc)
December 23, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 491 ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties recent letters, (D.I. 479; D.I. 482), hereby ORDERS as follows: The parties should further meet and confer regarding the disputes set out in both letters. If they cannot reach agreement on all of the issues by December 27, 2019, the parties shall submit a joint letter with the text set out in the Courts standard Rule 16 Scheduling Order for Patent cases, listing the issues that remain in dispute. (If the parties can reach agreement on all issues, they should submit the joint letter on the same date, informing the Court of this instead.). If disputes remain: (1) The parties shall file a joint "Motion for Teleconference to Resolve Discovery Dispute," the text of which can be found in the "Forms" tab of Judge Burke's page on the District Court's website.; (2) A discovery dispute teleconference will be set for January 13, 2020 at 2:00 PM EST before Judge Christopher J. Burke.; (3) By no later than January 3, 2020, the party seeking relief shall file with the Court a letter, not to exceed three (3) pages, in no less than 12-point font, outlining the issues in dispute and its position on those issues. By no later than January 9, 2020, the party opposing the application for relief may file a letter, not to exceed three (3) pages, in no less than 12-point font, outlining that partys reasons for its opposition.; (4) Two courtesy copies of the letters are to be hand-delivered to the Clerk's Office within one hour of e-filing.; (5) The Court may choose to resolve the disputes prior to the telephone conference. If it does so, it will cancel the conference. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 12/23/2019. (dlb)

December 19, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 481 Letter to The Honorable Colm F. Connolly from Jack B. Blumenfeld regarding Amended Claim Construction Order. (Attachments: #1 Text of Proposed Order)(Blumenfeld, Jack)
December 19, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 480 ORAL ORDER The Court, having reviewed the parties' letters with regard to Plaintiff's first discovery dispute concerning Active Management Technology ("AMT") Specifications, (D.I. 426 at 1-2; D.I. 446 at 2-3), and having heard oral argument, (D.I. 459 (hereinafter "Tr.")), HEREBY ORDERS that Plaintiff's Motion is DENIED. It does so for the following reasons: (1) As to relevance, the Court understands (and Defendant has conceded) that at least certain aspects of Defendant's AMT technology (those relating to the transition from CM3 to CM0, i.e., into a low power mode, as well as more general information regarding AMT functionality necessary for Plaintiff to sufficiently evaluate liability and damages) are relevant to Plaintiff's allegations of infringement of U.S. Patent No. 7,523,331 (the "'331 patent"). (Tr. at 19; D.I. 446 at 2) Defendant has asserted that it has performed a reasonable search for such AMT Specification-related records and produced responsive documents, (see Tr. at 19-20, 23, 27-28; D.I. 446 at 2-3), and the Court has no basis to conclude that Defendant's search in this regard was unreasonable.; (2) However, Defendant asserts that to the extent Plaintiff's RFP 135 (which asks for "[a]ll [AMT] Specifications[,]" (D.I. 426, ex. 1 at 10)), calls for records beyond the type of AMT specification-related documents that Defendant has already produced, then the request is overbroad. Indeed, this type of request (i.e., for "[a]ll" such records) does seem very broad on its face. And the Court notes that Defendant did object to this request on overbreadth grounds, (id., ex. 2 at 11-12), and now argues that the request would sweep in vast amounts of AMT specification-related records that could not be shown to be relevant to the claims and defenses at issue here. (Tr. at 17 ([Defendant's Counsel: "[I]t's... quite a stretch to jump from the premise that we need documents that are responsive to the '331 patent... [to] saying that everything that has to do with AMT is relevant[.]"); see also id. at 20-21); (3) During oral argument, Plaintiff narrowed its request for not-yet-produced AMT specification records to only all "[AMT] documents that are [] titled 'specification'" and that are found in a particular Defendant database. (Tr. at 26-27) But even as to records fitting this somewhat narrower bill, the Court has no concrete indication that any or all such records are relevant to the claims and defenses at issue. Nor has Plaintiff sufficiently explained this to the Court. Put differently, Plaintiff has not sufficiently articulated to the Court why, if it is likely that there remain (a) certain currently un-produced AMT specification records; (b) that are found on the database in question and have "specification" in their title, then (c) such records are in fact likely to speak to AMT functionality that "allows for a remote administrator to access and do things with a system" while it is "functioning in a low power operating mode[.]" (Tr. at 7) Nor has Plaintiff sufficiently explained why any such AMT specification records on this database (beyond what Defendant has produced) are likely to relate to the "benefits" of AMT technology in a manner "relevant to [Plaintiff's] damages" case. (Tr. at 8); (4) Moreover, even if Plaintiff had better made these relevance connections for the Court, Defendant has additionally asserted that it is unable to search the database in question via the use of keywords for such records--- and that absent that ability, any requirement that it search for and produce all such currently-unproduced records would be unduly burdensome, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26. (Tr. a 27-28) Defendant's assertions as to the inability to keyword-search the contents of documents on the database are supported by a sworn declaration. (D.I. 447 at paras. 8-11; Tr. at 12-13) In contrast, the deposition testimony that Plaintiff relies on (in order to show that it should be easy to perform such searching) was more equivocal about how AMT specification information is stored on the database in question. (D.I. 426, ex. 13 at 155). Thus, based on the limited record before the Court, even if there was a reason to believe that there are relevant AMT-specification-related records located on the database in question, the Court is not persuaded that there is a reasonable, not-unduly-burdensome means for Defendant to locate and produce them.
