Filing 761
ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the pending motions seeking to redact portions of the September 22, 2021 motion hearing transcript and portions of certain of the Court's recent Memorandum Orders ("the Motions"), (D.I. 692; D.I. 699; D.I. 708; D.I. 722), hereby ORDERS that the Motions are DENIED without prejudice to renew. The Motions request significant amounts of redactions. Yet the parties do not seem to have been concerned about proposing redactions only to the least amount of material possible, (such as, for example, where they have proposed redacting certain references to "data structures[,]" (D.I. 722, ex. A at 4)), and they have repeatedly proposed redacting material that is already publicly available in redacted documents found on the docket, (for example, compare D.I. 692, ex. A at 2 (description of Plaintiff's infringement theory), with D.I. 576 at 3; compare D.I. 692, ex. A at 5, 7-8, 9 n.6, 13, 15 (references to server logs and content delivery records), with D.I. 576 at i, 8; D.I. 643 at 4, 5-6; compare D.I. 692, ex. A at 9 (citation to D.I. 613 at 3), with D.I. 658 at 3; compare D.I. 692, ex. A at 9 n.5 ("on a geographic basis with"), with D.I. 653 at 10 n.6; compare D.I. 692, ex. A at 14, with D.I. 653 at 4-5). Additionally, in the Motions, the parties summarize the general categories of information that they are seeking to redact. But as to those categories, it would be helpful to have more detailed assertions (supported by sworn affidavits or declarations if necessary) providing evidentiary support for the parties assertions that: (1) the information at issue is non-public and; (2) were it to become public, this would work a clearly defined and serious injury on one or both parties. In light of all this, the Court hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) By no later than March 29, 2022, the parties may file revised motions to redact.; (2) These revised motions shall include a chart that lists every proposed redaction sought in a left-hand-side column, and a detailed explanation of the rationale for the proposed redaction in a right-hand-side column.; (3) The parties should take care to not propose the redaction of material that is already publicly available elsewhere on the docket.; (4) Additionally, the parties should take care to propose redacting only the fewest amount of words necessary in the transcript/opinion (i.e., if a sentence has one word in it that should be redacted, do not propose redacting the entire sentence; instead, propose that only that one word should be redacted).; and (5) If after its review of these revised motions, the Court does not conclude that a sufficient record has been made to support a proposed redaction, it will not permit the material to be redacted going forward.

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Defendant's Motion to Strike Portions of the Declaration of Dr. Kevin C. Almeroth (the "Motion"), (D.I. 639), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 640; D.I. 646; D.I. 680), hereby ORDERS that the Motion is DENIED AS MOOT. The Declaration was offered solely in support of Plaintiff's oppositions to (1) Google's motion to exclude expert testimony as to the "sequencing file" limitation (the "Daubert Motion"); and (2) Google's motion for summary judgment of non-infringement with respect to 1,933 accused third-party products (the "Summary Judgment Motion"). (See D.I. 640 at 1-2; id., ex. A at paras. 4-5) However, with regard to the Daubert Motion, the Court did not find the declaration to be relevant to the Court's ultimate decision, (D.I. 720), and with regard to the Summary Judgment Motion, the Declarations content did not impact the Court's recommendation that summary judgment of non-infringement under Section 271(f) be granted (and was not otherwise relevant to the Court's other decisions with respect to the Summary Judgment Motion), (D.I. 706 at 23-24). Therefore, the Declaration does not appear to have continuing relevance to the case, and thus does not appear to have been harmful or prejudicial to Google. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 2/2/2022. (dlb)

Filing 721
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment on Defendant's invalidity defense under 35 U.S.C. 103 ("Motion"), (D.I. 548), the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 549; D.I. 615; D.I. 624), and having considered the relevant legal standards, (D.I. 706 at 4-5; see also D.I. 549 at 8), recommends that the Motion be DENIED. Plaintiff's Motion raises three issues, which the Court considers in turn: (1) Defendant relies on a "Conventional Computer Running Windows 95" which includes Microsoft's Windows 95 CD Player ("CD95"), as a prior art system. (D.I. 615 at 2; see also D.I. 550 at para. 14; D.I. 616 at para. 14) One of Defendant's experts, Dr. Ketan Mayer-Patel, purchased eight computers running the Windows 95 operating system for purposes of this case (the "exemplar devices" or the "devices"). (D.I. 617, ex. C at paras. 6-9) Another Defendant expert, Dr. Schuyler Quackenbush, then utilized the exemplar devices to operate CD95, upon which he opined that CD95 discloses the "predetermined amount of time" element of the relevant "skip back" limitation. (Id., ex. G at para. 47) Plaintiff first seeks summary judgment against Defendant by asserting that because Dr. Mayer-Patel "failed to undertake any investigation into the[] origins or components" of the exemplar devices, Defendant cannot prove by clear and convincing evidence that such devices constitute prior art. (D.I. 549 at 7; see also id. at 9-17; D.I. 624 at 1-7) However, and even to the extent that the exemplar devices themselves are asserted to constitute prior art (as opposed to simply being offered as pieces of evidence that help demonstrate how the actual prior art device operated), (D.I. 615 at 5-6), Defendant has proffered substantial evidence that establishes a triable issue of fact regarding whether those actual exemplary devices are pre-October 2, 1996 models with pre-October 2, 1996 parts, (id. at 7-11). On that front, Dr. Mayer-Patel: (a) purchased computer models that were available before October 1996; and (b) opines that based on the product specification sheets for the exemplar devices, in addition to his personal inspection and what he knows from his own experience, the hardware components found in the devices that are relevant to the "skip back" functionality at issue were available prior to October 1996. (D.I. 617, ex. C at paras. 6-16; see also D.I. 605, ex. R at 389-403 (Dr. Mayer-Patel testifying that repairs to certain exemplary devices were made using pre-October-1996 parts)) At no point in the record does Dr. Mayer-Patel express any doubt about whether the devices contained pre-October 1996 components. And the Court is aware of no evidence of record suggesting that they do not. Thus, the Court recommends that summary judgment on this ground be denied. See, e.g., TypeRight Keyboard Corp. v. Microsoft Corp., 374 F.3d 1151, 1158-59 (Fed. Cir. 2004) (reversing a grant of summary judgment of obviousness because there were genuine issues of fact regarding whether "the Marquardt document is prior art"); see also Finjan, Inc. v. Sophos, Inc., Case No. 14-cv-01197-WHO, 2016 WL 4523823, at *3 (N.D. Cal. Aug. 29, 2016); cf. In re Depomed Patent Litig., Civil Action No. 2:13-cv-04507, 2016 WL 743374, at *1-2 (D.N.J. Feb. 22, 2016).; (2) Plaintiff next argues that summary judgment must be granted to the effect that CD95 does not teach any limitations of the asserted claims as a matter of law, because the CD95 source code was and remains secret. (D.I. 549 at 7, 17-20, 36; D.I. 624 at 7-12) This is not an appropriate basis for summary judgment. As Defendant points out, it relies on the CD95 source code simply as one type of evidence -- in addition to other additional evidence, including publicly-available evidence like the exemplary devices in order to demonstrate the operation of the relevant prior art. (D.I. 615 at 12-14) It is undisputed that the Conventional Computer Running Windows 95 was publicly available in the United States before October 1996, (D.I. 617, ex. A at para. 113; id., ex. B at 6-7; id., ex. C at para. 9; id., ex. D), and Defendants theory is that the computers source code simply confirms what other publicly-available and observable evidence would have disclosed about how the computer worked, (D.I. 615 at 14-15; see also D.I. 617, ex. G at paras. 47-55; exs. H, I). For this reason, the Court agrees with Defendant that Plaintiff's reliance on Parallel Networks Licensing, LLC v. Intl Bus. Machs. Corp., Civil Action No. 13-2072 (KAJ), 2017 WL 1045912 (D. Del. Feb. 22, 2017) is not persuasive. In that case, the defendant attempted to rely entirely on its "internal network operations" to demonstrate how its use of a web server to host a particular website worked (and thus why the defendant's use of the web server amounted to invalidating prior art); the court found that the defendant's use of the server could not constitute prior art because the defendant kept those network operations entirely confidential and non-public. 2017 WL 1045912, at *9. Lastly, while Plaintiff argues that inherent latency associated with CD drives would obscure the functioning of the CD95 with respect to the relevant limitation, (D.I. 549 at 20; D.I. 551, ex. 30 at 12-13), the Court agrees with Defendant that there are material issues of fact as to whether latency has any impact on the relevant operation of CD95, (D.I. 615 at 16-17 (record citations omitted)).; and (3) Plaintiffs final argument is that Defendant should be estopped from pursuing obviousness combinations that rely on three prior art systems (CD95, NewsComm and the Cerberus Digital Jukebox) because Defendant relies heavily on printed publications to describe them, which are in turn cumulative of those raised in inter partes review ("IPR") proceedings. (D.I. 549 at 1, 21-35) Although the parties quibble about which claims could be the subject of IPR estoppel, (D.I. 615 at 23; D.I. 624 at 12-13), it appears that all of Defendant's obviousness combinations involving all asserted claims rely in part on the Conventional Computer Running Windows 95 prior art system, (D.I. 617, ex. G at para. 6). Plaintiff does not dispute that an invalidity ground that is based on a product/system that could not have been introduced in an IPR proceeding is not subject to estoppel. (D.I. 549 at 23-24; D.I. 615 at 22; D.I. 624 at 12 ("If Google cannot rely on the devices as substantive prior art, IPR estoppel applies.")); see also, e.g., Medline Indus., Inc. v. C.R. Bard, Inc., No. 17 C 7216, 2020 WL 5512132, at *4 (N.D. Ill. Sept. 14, 2020). And here, it is undisputed that the relevant operation of the CD95 back button is disclosed only by the operation of that system, and not by any printed publication or patent that could have been asserted in an IPR. (D.I. 615 at 23-24) Thus, the Court recommends that the estoppel portion of Plaintiffs Motion be denied.

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS re D.I. #561 The Court, having reviewed Defendant's motion for summary judgment of non-infringement as to the "means for continuously reproducing said program segments in the order established by said sequence in the absence of a control command" limitation, (D.I. 561), the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 562; D.I. 599; D.I. 631), and having considered the relevant legal standards, (D.I. 706 at 4-5), recommends that the Motion be DENIED. Plaintiff's infringement argument here turns on its assertion that the algorithmic structure of the software in the accused player (in which the data in the last record of the sequencing file, a "single byte integer that when read indicates the end or last track of the LIST sequence[,]" tells "the program that it has reached the end of the sequence and therefore should result in the current play variable being reset to the first position") is equivalent to the algorithmic structure required by the claims (in which "a rewind Selection_Record (LocType: R) in the sequencing file is reached, which resets the CurrentPlay variable to the location value contained in the rewind Selection_Record which is set to '1' to begin the playing sequence again with the first Selection_Record in the received sequencing file"). (D.I. 447 at 12; D.I. 571, ex. B at para. 374) And Plaintiff's expert Dr. Almeroth opines in his expert report, with sufficient supporting detail, why it is that the accused products perform the same function in substantially the same way to achieve substantially the same result as is required by the claims. (D.I. 571, ex. B at paras. 374-75, 377) That is enough to create a genuine issue of material fact as to this infringement dispute. In arguing otherwise, Defendant points to a comment that Dr. Almeroth made in his validity report regarding the key claim construction language at issue here (i.e., as to how its inclusion in the construction for requisite structure amounts to adding an "additional material limitation" over and above what was called for by a prior PTAB claim construction); Defendant argues that the comment is dispositive here, since the PTAB's construction is said to mirror Plaintiff's current infringement read. (D.I. 562 at 5-6; D.I. 631 at 1) And to be sure: (1) Dr. Almeroth's comment may be helpful to Defendant in cross examination; and (2) at trial, Dr. Almeroth will likely have to credibly explain how this comment was context-specific, and does not affect his infringement analysis. (See D.I. 599 at 4; D.I. 631 at 1-2) But it is far from clear to the Court that the comment alone eviscerates the value of Dr. Almeroth's afore-mentioned analysis regarding equivalence. Thus, because both parties have mustered credible evidence on their side of the ledger as to this infringement dispute, summary judgment is unwarranted. Please note that when filing Objections pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b)(2), briefing consists solely of the Objections (no longer than ten (10) pages) and the Response to the Objections (no longer than ten (10) pages).

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiff's Daubert motion to exclude the testimony and opinions of Defendant's invalidity expert Dr. Schuyler Quackenbush regarding the experiment ("the experiment") he conducted using Windows computers ("Motion"), (D.I. 546), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 547; D.I. 614; D.I. 623), and having considered the relevant legal standards, see 360 Heros, Inc. v. GoPro, Inc., --- F. Supp. 3d ---, 2021 WL 5050879, at *1-2 (D. Del. Nov. 1, 2021), hereby ORDERS that the Motion is DENIED. Plaintiff first asserts that Dr. Quackenbush's experiment is unreliable because he relied exclusively on his own "eyes and ears" or on perceptions that were "all in his head" in order to determine whether the tracks at issue had played for between 0.0 and 1.0 seconds--as opposed to relying on "a timer" or an "actual timing device[.]" (D.I. 547 at 6-9) But that is not so, as Dr. Quackenbush also relied on the system display (which, at least facially, indicated that 1.0 seconds had not yet elapsed after play was pressed during the experiment). (D.I. 551, ex. 27 at 223; D.I. 617, ex. G at para. 47; see also D.I. 614 at 8-12) Plaintiff also appears to dispute whether the results Dr. Quackenbush observed were affected by computer latency, (D.I. 547 at 13-15; D.I. 623 at 3), and it asserts that Dr. Quackenbush should have used a different type of methodology (one that, like Dr. Quackenbush's methodology, involves the use of human perception to some degree) in order to measure elapsed time, (D.I. 547 at 11-13; see also D.I. 551, ex. 29 at 4). But arguments like these are just fact-based merits arguments they go to the weight of Dr. Quackenbush's testimony and their worth can be sorted out by the trier of fact. Cf. MeadWestVaco Corp. v. Rexam Beauty & Closures, Inc., 731 F.3d 1258, 1268-69 (Fed. Cir. 2013). Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 1/13/2021. (dlb)

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Defendant's Daubert motion to exclude the opinions of Plaintiff's damages expert Michele Riley regarding the royalty base and rate ("Motion"), (D.I. #567 ), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 568; D.I. 603; D.I. 633), and having considered the relevant legal standards, see 360 Heros, Inc. v. GoPro, Inc., --- F. Supp. 3d ---, 2021 WL 5050879, at *1-2 (D. Del. Nov. 1, 2021), hereby ORDERS that the Motion be GRANTED-IN-PART and DENIED-IN-PART as follows: (1) With regard to Defendant's challenge to Ms. Riley's opinions regarding the royalty base, (D.I. 568 at 2-6), Defendant first argues that the royalty base is not tied to the accused products, because it considers sales of products that were not included on the list of 1,933 "exemplary" third-party products referenced in Plaintiff's infringement contentions, (D.I. 571, ex. A). But as the Court noted in its recent Report and Recommendation regarding a related summary judgment motion, (D.I. 706 at 10), it now understands Plaintiff's theory to be that these exemplary devices are simply representative of thousands of models of phones/tablets that directly infringed the patents-in-suit, (D.I. 603 at 1; see also D.I. 290 at para. 6; D.I. 605, ex. GG at 5-6). As a result, it does not find Ms. Riley's reference to "other" devices (i.e., devices not included in the list of 1,933) to be problematic and ORDERS that this portion of the Motion be DENIED.; (2) As to Defendant's other argument that Ms. Riley's "ROW" royalty base is premised on an erroneous assumption, this portion of the Motion is GRANTED, as it relates to Plaintiff's Section 271(f) claims as to third-party devices, which the Court has recently recommended should be dismissed (on similar grounds) via a grant of summary judgment, (D.I. 706 at 19-24).; (3) With regard to Defendant's challenge to Ms. Riley's opinions regarding the royalty rate, (D.I. 568 at 6-15), Defendant first argues that the upper bound of Ms. Riley's reference range (expressed in a cents per unit metric) is unreliable. Its core argument here (the only argument pressed both in its opening and reply brief) is that this upper bound is derived from a license between Plaintiff and another company, wherein the license (for a lump sum) included rights not only to the patents-in-suit, but also to an unrelated patent; Defendant faults Ms. Riley for allocating none of the license payment to that unrelated patent (thereby jacking up the cents per unit rate for the license). (Id. at 7-9; D.I. 633 at 4) The Court agrees that Ms. Rileys methodology here was unreliable, and GRANTS this portion of the Motion, as Ms. Riley either needed to credibly explain why no value was allocated to this unrelated patent or why some value should be allocated to it, and she did neither. (D.I. 633 at 4 (citing ResQNet.com, Inc. v. Lansa, Inc., 594 F.3d 860, 871 (Fed. Cir. 2010))); (4) Next, as to Defendant's challenge to Ms. Riley's reliance on certain cents-per-device "offers" that Plaintiff made to settle two other lawsuits, this portion of the Motion is GRANTED. While offers for proposed licenses may have some value in determining a reasonable royalty in certain situations, WhitServe, LLC v. Comput. Packages, Inc., 694 F.3d 10, 29-30 (Fed. Cir. 2012), the offers here are irrelevant, especially in light of the fact that: (a) the offers were rejected; (b) the parties to those two cases settled on different terms that are known to the parties; and (c) earlier in this case, Plaintiff successfully blocked discovery into its licensing negotiations like these. (D.I. 568 at 10-12; D.I. 633 at 4); cf. MLC Intell. Prop., LLC v. Micron Tech., Inc., Case No. 14-cv-03657-SI, 2019 WL 2716512, at *13-14 (N.D. Cal. June 28, 2019); MiiCs & Partners, Inc. v. Funai Elec. Co., Ltd., Civil Action No. 14-804-RGA, 2017 WL 6268072, at *4 (D. Del. Dec. 7, 2017).; (5) With regard to Defendant's objection to Ms. Riley's reliance on overall profit margins, the Court DENIES this portion of the Motion. In light of Plaintiff's argument that GPM adds important value as a key part of Defendant's product ecosystem, the Court cannot say it was improper for Ms. Riley to utilize Defendant's profit margin to adjust the appropriate royalty rate in the manner she did; possible holes in that approach could be explored on cross-examination. (Plaintiff's Hearing Presentation at Slides 13-16); cf. Transcenic Inc. v. Google Inc., Civil Action No. 11-582-LPS (D.I. 591 at 111-12) (D. Del. Feb. 19, 2015).; and (6) Lastly, as to Defendant's challenge to Ms. Riley's reliance on Mr. Heiblim's opinions, the Motion is GRANTED. With regard to the challenged paragraphs of Ms. Riley's report, (D.I. 571, ex. J at paras. 168-73), Ms. Riley does not sufficiently explain how the cited portions of Mr. Heiblim's opinions relate to the claim limitations in the asserted patents; in the absence of that connection, Ms. Riley's analysis does not "fit" the facts of the case.

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION: The Court, having reviewed Defendant's motion for summary judgment of invalidity of claims 2 and 3 of the '076 patent ("Motion"), (D.I. 564), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 565; D.I. 601; D.I. 632), recommends that the Motion be DENIED. With this Motion, Defendant is asking the Court to conclude that claims 2 and 3 are indefinite; it argues this is so because: (1) the claims include means-plus-function limitations, which in turn claim functions that involve taking certain action with regard to a currently playing program segment "in response to a single 'Back' command" (re: claim 2) and "in response to two consecutive 'Back' commands" (re: claim 3); and (2) the patent purportedly does not clearly link performance of these functions to a structure that can distinguish between "single" and "consecutive" back commands. (D.I. 565 at 5; see also D.I. 331 at 54) As an initial matter, the Court disagrees with Plaintiff that these limitations "do not recite any functional requirement to measure time[.]" (D.I. 601 at 1) As Defendant notes, (D.I. 565 at 4; D.I. 632 at 1), in order to be able to determine if two "Back" commands are "consecutive" (as opposed to simply being two single "Back" commands), a structure would have to be able to determine if the two commands are sufficiently close in time (i.e., what the parties have described as being able to determine whether the second command occurs within a "predetermined amount of time"). Indeed, both in its briefing here, and in earlier submissions, Plaintiff has implicitly or explicitly acknowledged that this is so. (D.I. 176 at 12; D.I. 331 at 50; D.I. 565 at 4 (citing D.I. 571, ex. E at para. 278); D.I. 601 at 2; D.I. 632 at 1) However, on the question of whether summary judgment of indefiniteness should be granted, the Court must side with Plaintiff and say "no." Defendant has the burden to prove indefiniteness by clear and convincing evidence. (D.I. 601 at 1) Here, Plaintiff asserts, citing to the report of its expert, Dr. Almeroth, that: (1) the function of reading and determining how long an audio player has played is something that could have been accomplished by a general purpose computer, i.e., a general purpose computer running Windows 95; and (2) thus, "the recital of a general purpose computer with the specified algorithms [i.e., those already contained in the Court's current construction with regard to structure] is sufficient to perform the recited functions and the claims are not indefinite." (D.I. 571, ex. E at paras. 286-88; D.I. 601 at 3); see also Ergo Licensing, LLC v. CareFusion 303, Inc., 673 F.3d 1361, 1364-65 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (explaining that while an algorithm must normally be disclosed for a general purpose computer to satisfy the means-plus-function disclosure requirement for structure, that is not required when "the function can be achieved by any general purpose computer without special programming") (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). In its reply brief, Defendant contends that this is incorrect, and that "distinguishing between 'single' and 'consecutive' commands to skip Back in a music player clearly requires special programming and is not akin to a generic function like producing sound." (D.I. 632 at 2 (citation omitted)) But Defendant cites to nothing in the record in support of this conclusion (i.e., to no expert report, or other record source), and that type of response is not sufficient to meet the clear and convincing evidence hurdle. Please note that when filing Objections pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b)(2), briefing consists solely of the Objections (no longer than ten (10) pages) and the Response to the Objections (no longer than ten (10) pages).

Filing 511
ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiff Personal Audio, LLC's Motion to Strike Portions of the Reply Expert Report of Dr. Schuyler Quackenbush ("Motion"), (D.I. 495), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 496; D.I. 501; D.I. 502), and having heard argument on November 2, 2020, hereby DENIES Plaintiffs Motion for the reasons that follow: (1) Plaintiff's Motion is premised on the assertion that Paragraph 47 and Exhibits B-L of Dr. Quackenbush's reply expert report (which describe Dr. Quackenbush's personal use of the Microsoft Windows CD Player system on a Windows 95 computer) is not proper rebuttal to the opinions of Plaintiffs expert Dr. Kevin Almeroth and should have been presented "during discovery as part of Google's Invalidity Contentions or in response to discovery requests." (D.I. 496 at 1; see also D.I. 502 at 2) However, Google did identify a "Conventional Computer Running Windows 95" in its Invalidity Contentions as allegedly invalidating prior art. (D.I. 501 at 1 & exs. A at 14, B, C) And, as Google argues, in his rebuttal report, Dr. Almeroth does appear to have attempted to bolster his position regarding how the source code works in this system by making assertions about the user experience during the operation of the system. (D.I. 501, ex. E at paras. 168, 177) These arguments had not been disclosed to Google prior to service of Dr. Almeroth's report. (D.I. 501 at 3 n.3) The Court thus agrees with Google that the material at issue in Dr. Quackenbush's report is related to Google's prior art disclosure and also amounts to a proper reply to Dr. Almeroth's arguments about that prior art. (D.I. 501 at 2-4 & n.3) Based on these facts, the Court cannot find that Defendant's conduct violated any discovery rule.; (2) That said, Defendant has offered that Plaintiff may inspect the hardware purchased for Dr. Quackenbush and may depose Dr. Mayer-Patel regarding his opinion that the hardware is representative of a "Conventional Computer Running Windows 95" during the normal course of expert discovery. (Id. at 5) It may also be that certain targeted additional discovery is warranted regarding the relevant aspects of Dr. Quackenbush's reply report, though the Court has not yet been persuaded of that. The parties shall further meet and confer on the issue and may utilize the Courts discovery dispute process if further disputes arise in that regard.. Signed by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 11/3/2020. (dlb)

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiff Personal Audio, LLC's Motion to Strike Portions of the Rebuttal Expert Report of Dr. Ketan Mayer-Patel Regarding Noninfringement ("Motion"), (D.I. 475), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 476; D.I. 482; D.I. 485), and having heard argument on October 19, 2020, hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) With regard to Plaintiff's request that the Court strike certain arguments raised by Defendant Google LLC in Dr. Mayer-Patel's report, (D.I. 476 at 1), it is DENIED. The primary basis for this request is that Dr. Mayer-Patel's report for the first time raised arguments that included citations relating to Defendant's source code. (Id. at 1-2) While Plaintiff's Interrogatory No. 6 did ask Defendant to cite to "'all lines of Software code'" when setting out its non-infringement contentions, (id. at 1), and Defendants prior responses did not do so, in those responses, Defendant asserted that it did not need to do so because it had made its source code available for inspection, (see, e.g., id., ex. D at 9). Yet Plaintiff never objected to Defendant's responses in that regard. (D.I. 482 at 1, 3-4) Even following receipt of Dr. Mayer-Patel's report in June 2020, Plaintiff (who, in the interval, had its expert review the source code at issue yet again) simply served its reply report without claiming to have been prejudiced by the content of Dr. Mayer-Patel's report. (Id.) It was only after Defendant advised Plaintiff in August 2020 that it intended to move to strike certain material from Plaintiff's expert reply report that Plaintiff, for the first time, raised an issue with Dr. Mayer-Patel's report. (Id. at 2) Indeed, it is undisputed that Plaintiff would not have filed the instant motion had Google not filed its own motion to strike. (Id.; D.I. 485 at 2) Based on these facts, the Court cannot find that Defendant's conduct violated Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(e) or any other discovery rule.; (2) With regard to Plaintiff's alternative request that the Court order Defendant to provide Plaintiff with copies of all of the source code that Dr. Mayer-Patel relies upon in the report, (D.I. 476 at 3; D.I. 485 at 2), Plaintiff's request is DENIED. Having found no discovery violation, no such relief is justified pursuant to this Motion. That said, the Court encourages the parties to further meet and confer on the issue to determine if some more "narrowly tailored" compromise, along the lines of what Defendant suggested in its brief, (D.I. 482 at 5), can be reached. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 10/26/2020. (dlb)

ORAL ORDER: By its discovery dispute motion, (D.I. #386 ), Plaintiff seeks an order entitling it to: (1) additional 30(b)(6) testimony regarding the distribution of Google Play Music ("GPM"); and (2) a full day for the second 30(b)(6) deposition of Mr. Razumeiko, (D.I. 390). With regard to nearly all of the reasons that Plaintiff cites in support of its motion, the Court agrees with Defendant (for largely the reasons expressed in Defendant's answering letter brief) that these reasons do not justify relief. (D.I. 392) However, the Court does agree with Plaintiff that in addition to the subject matter that the Court has ordered as appropriate topics for Mr. Razumeiko's second 30(b)(6) deposition, (D.I. 354 at 5-6; D.I. 403), Plaintiff may question Mr. Razumeiko regarding Spreadsheet 7080 and topics that are directly related to the content of Spreadsheet 7080. The length of Mr. Razumeiko's second 30(b)(6) deposition shall be extended to no more than 4 hours in total. The Court finds that Spreadsheet 7080 and topics directly related thereto are appropriate subject matter for Mr. Razumeiko's second deposition because: (1) according to Google, Spreadsheet 7080 is the "operative" spreadsheet regarding GPM installation data. (See, e.g., D.I. 353 at 63-64; see also id. at 38); (2) It appears that Mr. Razumeiko has knowledge regarding the metrics reflected by Spreadsheet 7080. (See id. at 64; D.I. 392 at 3); (3) As of the time of Mr. Razumeiko's first 30(b)(6) deposition on December 5, 2018, Google had provided minimal information regarding the metrics reflected by Spreadsheet 7080. (D.I. 354 at 3) And since that deposition, additional information regarding Spreadsheet 7080's content has been presented (e.g., that it does not include global installations, and that it represents only the number of installations where the GPM app was installed for the first time). For these reasons, Plaintiff's motion is DENIED-IN-PART and GRANTED-IN-PART as set out herein. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 5/8/2019. (mlc)
|
May 8, 2019 |
Filing 403
ORAL ORDER: By its discovery dispute motion, (D.I. #386 ), Google seeks an order that would exclude the following topics from those topics that are properly the subject of Mr. Razumeiko's second 30(b)(6) deposition: topics 6(b)(i), 6(b)(ii), 6(b)(iii), 6(b)(iv), 8(b), 8(d), 8(f), and 9, (D.I. 389 at 2). Of these topics, Plaintiff does not contest that topics 6(b)(i), 6(b)(iii), 8(d) and 9(d) should be excluded. (D.I. 393 at 2-4) With regard to the remaining topics still at issue (i.e., 6(b)(ii), 6(b)(iv), 8(b), 8(f) and 9(a-c)), Google did not designate Mr. Razumeiko as a Rule 30(b)(6) witness with respect to these topics (and Plaintiff has not demonstrated that any deponent who did testify as to such topics was insufficiently prepared or insufficiently knowledgeable). A party offering Rule 30(b)(6) testimony has the ability to "designate" the individual(s) who will testify on its behalf. Fed. R. Civ. P. 30(b)(6); see also, e.g., Prowess, Inc. v. Raysearch Labs. AB, Civil Case No. WDQ-11-1357, 2013 WL 1352276, at *5 (D. Md. Apr. 1, 2013). It would therefore be inappropriate for the Court to order Mr. Razumeiko to provide Rule 30(b)(6) testimony on topics for which he was not designated in the first place. For these reasons, Google's motion is GRANTED. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 5/8/2019. (mlc)

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' supplemental letters relating to Defendant's request that Plaintiff be compelled to complete its production of litigation materials generated from Plaintiff's prior litigations against Apple and Acer, (D.I. 357; D.I. 359), HEREBY ORDERS as follows: (1) Defendant, as the party moving to compel, bears the burden of establishing that these documents are relevant to the instant litigation. See Tessera, Inc. v. Broadcom Corp., Civil Action No. 16-380-LPS-CJB, 2017 WL 4876215, at *2 (D. Del. Oct. 24, 2017). (2) First, as to the expert deposition transcripts and expert reports from the Apple case, the Court agrees with Defendant that these are relevant to this litigation, for the reasons set out by Google. (D.I. 359 at 1-2) Plaintiff has not made a showing of any undue burden pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26 as to production of these documents. Thus, by no later than March 13, 2019, Plaintiff shall produce any expert deposition transcripts and expert reports from the Apple case that are in its possession, custody or control. (3) Second, as to the defendants' discovery responses in the Apple and Acer cases, Defendant acknowledges that some such responses (such as those identifying certain financial information) might be irrelevant, while arguing that other responses (such as those relating to validity of the asserted patents) are "clearly relevant here." (D.I. 359 at 2) The Court agrees. As to how to deal with the fact that this category of materials is likely to contain both relevant and irrelevant documents, Defendant's alternative proposal, (id.), whereby Plaintiff may produce the discovery responses with information that it believes to be irrelevant redacted (with Defendant able to subsequently challenge any redactions as necessary), appears to be a reasonable and practical solution. By no later than March 13, 2019, Plaintiff shall produce any of the defendants' responses to Interrogatories and/or Requests for Admissions in the Apple and Acer cases that are in its possession, custody or control in accordance with this proposal. (4) With respect to Plaintiff's concern that some of the documents referenced above may contain Apple's highly confidential technical and financial information, (D.I. 351 at 1), presumably such documents would be produced pursuant to the Protective Order in this case, and that should at least partly address such a concern. Moreover, if Apple believes that certain materials should not be produced or that certain redactions should be made, Apple may attempt to intervene accordingly. (See D.I. 359 at 2 n.2); and (5)To the extent that Defendant believes that Plaintiff has not produced any other documents relating to Plaintiff's prior litigations that should in fact be produced, Defendant is free to follow up regarding those issues by further utilizing the Court's discovery dispute procedures. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 2/27/2019. (dlb)

February 6, 2019 |
ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiff's motion regarding a discovery dispute, (D.I. 329), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 335; D.I. 338), and having heard argument on February 4, 2019, hereby ORDERS that Plaintiff's motion is GRANTED as follows: (1) By its motion, Plaintiff seeks to compel the deposition of Peter Nguyen. (D.I. 335 at 1) Because Plaintiff served Mr. Nguyen's deposition notice on December 14, 2018, the final day of fact discovery in this case, (D.I. 280; D.I. 302), Plaintiff's request would require an extension of the fact discovery deadline. Therefore, the Court must apply the good cause standard in accordance with Rule 16 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which requires Plaintiff to demonstrate that, despite diligence, the deposition could not have been reasonably sought in a timely manner. See, e.g., Liqwd, Inc. v. L'Oreal USA, Inc., Civil Action No. 17-14-JFB-SRF, 2019 WL 188534, at *1 (D. Del. Jan. 14, 2019). (2) The Court does not have a basis to find that Plaintiff was not diligent in seeking Mr. Nguyen's deposition. It is undisputed that Plaintiff only first learned of Mr. Nguyen at the end of November 2018 at the earliest, (D.I. 338 at 2), and Plaintiff asserts that Mr. Nguyen's relevance became fully apparent only during the December 5, 2018 deposition of Google deponent Igor Razumeiko. (D.I. 335 at 1 & ex. 1 at 16) Plaintiff served Mr. Nguyen's deposition notice nine days later, which is not a length of time indicating that Plaintiff failed to demonstrate diligence. (3) For at least the following reasons, it does appear that Mr. Nguyen may have non-cumulative, relevant information regarding data analytics and metrics associated with the accused product, Google Play Music, including installation numbers: (a) Mr. Razumeiko identified Mr. Nguyen as the "data analytics lead[,]" a position that is "responsible for collecting and storing analytics data for Google Play Music." (D.I. 335, ex. 1 at 15-16); (b) Mr. Razumeiko identified Mr. Nguyen as someone with whom he consulted while preparing for his deposition. (Id. at at 73-74, 135); and (c) even Defendant's counsel acknowledged that Mr. Nguyen is not totally divorced from the subject matter at issue. (4) Further impacting the Court's view as to the fairness of Plaintiff's request are the facts that (a) Plaintiff did notice Mr. Nguyen's deposition prior to the close of fact discovery; and (b) Plaintiff did not previously use anywhere near its full allotment of deposition time (it had approximately 22 hours of available deposition time remaining at the close of fact discovery). (D.I. 335 at 3 & n.2) (5) By no later than February 13, 2019, absent further order of the Court, the parties shall meet and confer to schedule Mr. Nguyen's deposition. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 2/6/2019. (dlb)

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiff's motion regarding discovery disputes, (D.I. #299 ), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 307; D.I. 309), hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) With regard to the first two disputes, relating to Plaintiff's Interrogatories Nos. 27 and 28 and Plaintiff's Requests for Production Nos. 2 and 3, the Court accepts Defendant's representation that after reasonable searches, it has either not found responsive records or, to the extent it has, it has produced such materials. Plaintiff's requests are therefore DENIED as MOOT.; (2) With regard to the third dispute, relating to Plaintiff's Interrogatory 33, both because Plaintiff is seeking information not called for by the actual interrogatory at issue, and because Defendant has nevertheless generated a multi-pronged proposal to provide Plaintiff with some or all of the information it seeks, (D.I. 309 at 3-4), Plaintiff's request is DENIED. The Court understands that Defendant will make available to Plaintiff (to the extent Plaintiff wishes to take advantage of them) the tools/records Defendant outlines in its responsive letter. (Id.); (3) With regard to the fourth dispute, regarding deposition hours, Plaintiff's request is DENIED. The Court sees no reason to issue a blanket order regarding deposition time. The parties shall follow Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 30, observe the 50-hour-per-side limitation in the Scheduling Order, (D.I. 137 at 4), and otherwise work together cooperatively to schedule and complete any remaining depositions.; and (4) The discovery dispute teleconference scheduled for January 14, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. is CANCELLED.Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 1/4/2019. (mlc)

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' joint October 16, 2018 letter, (D.I. 275), regarding Plaintiff's discovery dispute concerning certain of Defendant's discovery responses relating to its advertising revenues, (D.I. 226 at 2-3), HEREBY ORDERS as follows: In framing the discovery dispute, Plaintiff asserted that Defendant has not produced sufficient information regarding "Google's advertising revenue and the portion directly or indirectly attributable to the Accused Software." (Id. at 2) Defendant subsequently provided Plaintiff with spreadsheets that assertedly set out Googe's: (1) U.S. advertising attributable to the Accused Software on a monthly basis, (see D.I. 230 at 2; D.I. 231, ex. 1), and (2) worldwide advertising attributable to the Accused Software on a monthly basis, (see D.I. 275, ex. 2). Plaintiff's main complaint with Defendant's production appears to be that Defendant has not provided a sufficient description of how these revenue numbers were generated and what exactly they refer to. (D.I. 275 at 1-2) Although the Court had hoped that the dispute could be resolved during an additional meet-and-confer process, (see D.I. 251 at 3-4), such additional information-sharing did not occur, (D.I. 275 at 1-2). The Court cannot tell whose fault that was, but in the end, to the extent that Plaintiff continues to have questions about these spreadsheets, the best course is to further explore them via deposition discovery. Thus, any remaining request on this issue from Plaintiff is DENIED and the Court considers this dispute to be closed. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 10/30/2018. (dlb)

ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the status report provided by Defendant on October 11, 2018, (D.I. 270), HEREBY ORDERS that Defendant shall produce to Plaintiff the information discussed in Paragraph 2 in a timely manner. Otherwise, the Court takes Defendant's status report as a confirmation that it does not have other information in its possession, custody or control that is responsive to the Requests for Production at issue in Plaintiff's discovery dispute motion. (D.I. 221) The Court thus considers this aspect of Plaintiff's discovery dispute motion to be resolved. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 10/16/2018. (dlb)

However, going forward, the Court HEREBY ORDERS that to the extent that the parties wish to file a letter/responsive document relating to a discovery dispute that has not been specifically permitted by the Court, the party shall first file a motion seeking leave to file such a document.

ORAL ORDER: The Court has reviewed the declarations provided in Plaintiff's September 27, 2018 letter, (D.I. #252 ), which support Plaintiff's prior assertion that the burden of producing all documents responsive to Defendant's Request for Production ("RFP") No. 56 would outweigh the likely benefit of the discovery. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(1); (D.I. 243 at 2). Accordingly, the Court HEREBY DENIES Defendant's request that Plaintiff produce all documents responsive to RFP No. 56. Although the Court indicated that Defendant may be able to "craft a more narrowly tailored" request relating to RFP No. 56, (D.I. 243 at 2), Defendant's recent attempt, (D.I. 254), does not suffice. Defendant there did not sufficiently explain the nature of the disputes relating to the scope of certain license agreements, nor why it is believed that documents responsive to RFP No. 56 may actually shed light on the resolution of those disputes. If Defendant believes that it can craft a very narrowly tailored request for documents responsive to the RFP, along with a sufficient explanation in this regard, then it may follow the Courts discovery dispute procedures in raising that issue with the Court. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 10/2/2018. (mlc)

ORAL ORDER: The Court having reviewed the parties' Joint Status Report, agrees with Defendant, (D.I. #209 ), that there is no reason to deviate from the Court's usual procedures regarding discovery disputes as to the issues raised in the report. To the extent the parties cannot resolve certain of these disputes after further meeting and conferring, they may utilize the Court's procedures to address those issues. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 8/23/2018. (mlc)

August 23, 2018 |
ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the briefing regarding Plaintiff's discovery dispute motion, (D.I. #195 ), in which Plaintiff Personal Audio, LLC ("Plaintiff") seeks an order compelling Defendant Google LLC ("Defendant" or "Google") to make available for inspection certain Google server-side source code, and having considered the arguments made on the August 8, 2018 teleconference, hereby ORDERS that Plaintiff's motion is DENIED. The patent claims at issue are device claims to an "audio program player." Going into the teleconference, the Court did not understand why Plaintiff would need to point to what occurs on Google's servers in order to demonstrate that any of the device claim limitations are met. Nor did the Court understand why Google's back-end source code was otherwise relevant to demonstrating what occurs on an allegedly infringing accused device. And in reviewing Plaintiff's infringement contentions, the answers to these questions were also not clear to the Court. During the teleconference, Plaintiff seemed to provide shifting (and confusing) answers to the Court's questions directed to these issues. (August 8, 2018 teleconference transcript at 14-23) In the absence of Plaintiff demonstrating why the sought-after back-end source code is relevant to its infringement claims, and why its production is necessary, the Court cannot grant Plaintiff's motion, especially in light of the asserted burden to Google in producing such code, (D.I. 206).

|
December 13, 2017 |
CASE REFERRED to Magistrate Judge Christopher J. Burke. (This matter has been assigned to the Vacant Judgeship and referred to a Magistrate Judge for handling through case-dispositive motions. The Magistrate Judge has full authority permitted by law to manage this matter, including entering schedules through trial, deciding non-dispositive matters and making recommendations as to the resolution of dispositive matters. Litigants and counsel are reminded that they have the option of consenting to the Magistrate Judge to handle the case in full, including trial, or consenting to having a particular motion resolved by the Magistrate Judge.)

REMARK: The parties should be aware that the Court encourages the participation of newer attorneys in courtroom proceedings and at oral argument.

Case Assigned to Vacant Judgeship (2017). Please include initials of VAC after the case number on all documents filed. (rjb)
|
December 13, 2017 |
ORAL ORDER: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED pursuant to Local Rule 81.2 (Local Rules of Civil Practice and Procedure of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, effective April 30, 2010) that within 21 days of the filing of the case with this District, the parties shall submit a statement identifying all pending matters which require judicial action. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 12/13/2017. (dlb)
|
December 13, 2017 |
REMARK: If the parties jointly consent to have a Magistrate Judge conduct all proceedings in this case, including trial, then when Judge Burke enters a case schedule he will enter the respective pre-trial conference and trial dates onto his calendar and will honor them. Otherwise, in accordance with the District Court's procedures for "Assignment of Cases to Visiting Judges" (issued on May 26, 2017 and available on the District Court's website), then upon the filing of a case-dispositive motion (e.g., a motion to dismiss, a motion for judgment on the pleadings, a motion for summary judgment, or initiation of the claim construction process in a patent case), VAC cases will be considered ready for reassignment to a visiting District Judge. Whether the pre-trial conference and trial dates will stand after reassignment will depend on the availability of those dates on the visiting District Judge's calendar. (dlb)
