Filing 552 MOTION to Enforce the Court's November 26, 2014 Order Regarding Expert Testimony by Adobe Systems Incorporated. (Attachments: #1 Exhibit 1)(Kessel, Adam) |
Filing 551 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. Adobes motion to preclude unredacted version of trial exhibit CV is allowed. Consistent with the courts rulings on the motions in limine and Cherys deposition designations, the parties are to be respectful in addressing each other before the jury and are to avoid using pejorative terms. The court allowed Adobes use of exhibits containing references to troll and NTP because they did not refer to EveryScape, but to a third party, and nonetheless gave a softening instruction. EveryScape is to redact references to Adobe as the 800 pound gorilla before offering trial exhibit CV.(RGS, int2) |

Filing 544 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying #526 Motion to preclude comparisons between prior art and commercial products. The parties may make comparisons between commercial products for relevant purposes such as to demonstrate flaws in each other's contentions regarding claim scope, or that certain products had more efficient user interfaces (thus contributing to their commercial success). The court notes, however, "MERE proof that the prior art is identical, in all material respects, to an allegedly infringing product cannot constitute clear and convincing evidence of invalidity." Uniloc USA, Inc. v. Microsoft Corp., 632 F.3d 1292, 1323 (Fed. Cir. 2011) (emphasis added). Ultimately, any argument on patent invalidity must reference back to the claim language itself - "[a]nticipation requires a showing that each element of the claim at issue, properly construed, is found in a single prior art reference." Id. The court also notes that the objection regarding the captions of EveryScape's opening slides is moot given the parties' agreement. (RGS, int2) |

NTP is well-known example of such a firm. (Court Reporter: None.)(Attorneys present: Mueller, Airan, and Feigelson for plaintiff, Scherkenbach, Kessel, and Chen for defendant) (RGS, int2) |

Filing 506 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part #490 EveryScape's Omnibus Motions in Limine as follows. 1. Alleged violations of Adobe's copyright and related evidence - ALLOWED. 2. Noninfringement of EveryScape's patents (including statements that "Adobe does not infringe any valid claims" or "Adobe practices the prior art" - ALLOWED IN PART - Adobe agrees that it will not argue to the jury that it practices prior art - and otherwise DENIED. The court will fulfill its obligations to ensure against jury confusion by properly instructing the jury on the issues in dispute. 3. Comparison of the prior art to commercial products covered by the patent - MOOT in light of the court's previous ruling (Dkt. No. 500). 4. Prior Art for which no foundation has been laid - MOOT - the court will handle evidentiary objections on a case-by-case basis. 5. Undisclosed invalidity defenses or prior art reference combinations - ALLOWED - the court is assured that the parties understand that experts may only testify within the metes and bounds of their Rule 26b disclosures. 6. Anticipation based on "gap filling" or combination of references - DENIED in that Adobe may prove the content/functionality of Painter 7 software through extrinsic evidence; however, if Adobe contends that a non-explicit feature is inherent it must prove to the jury that the feature "necessarily" existed within Painter 7. 7. Unpublished draft manuscripts - ALLOWED IN PART - Adobe agrees that Dr. Oh's draft manuscripts will not be presented as prior art - otherwise DENIED - the manuscripts may be used for other relevant purposes, such as demonstrating Dr. Oh's understanding of what constituted prior art. 8.

The alleged contributions of Julie Dorsey to the claimed invention - MOOT in light of the parties stipulated motion in limine (Dkt. No. 494) #9. The court notes that inventorship is not at issue in this case. 11. EveryScape's financial condition or size - DENIED - the parties may present evidence of their relative bargaining positions, which informs the hypothetical licensing negotiation. 12. Other patents as a defense or limitation on damages - DENIED - that the accused product is covered by other patents is not a defense to infringement but is relevant to the issue of apportioning value for damages assessment.

Filing 500 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part #478 EveryScape's motion to strike Dr. Hany Farid's supplemental expert report. The report discusses two separate but related subject matters - the functionality of the Mok3 Perspective Correction Tool that was commercially available in the 2004/2005 period, and the underlying source code. With respect to the tool (i.e. the binary files), as EveryScape contended all along that this tool embodies its patented invention, EveryScape should have produced a working copy of the tool during fact discovery to Adobe under its automatic disclosure obligations and in response to Adobe's discovery requests. Thus, the portions of Dr. Farid's supplemental report that discuss the operations of the tool are proper given the late production of the tool itself. In any event, as Adobe has designated the tool as an exhibit at trial, the jury can make its own determination through the demonstration. The court also sees the relevance of the report's discussion - Adobe is making the point that EveryScape cannot have its cake and eat it too - EveryScape cannot both claim that the Mok3 tool embodies the patent claims and Painter 7 does not if they suffer from the same alleged deficiencies. The claims must be read through the same prior art lens as brought to focus on the allegedly infringing products.The court will strike the portions of Dr. Farid's report that discuss the source code. It appears that EveryScape did offer an inspection of the code (which was in "addition[]" to the Durand 2001 MIT code) in its December 29, 2011 letter to Adobe (EveryScape Ex. D) pursuant to the parties' stipulated protective order. In any event, the discussion of the code in the supplemental report only goes to the point of whether Dr. Oh wrote the commercial plug-in from scratch (or whether he truthfully testified to such). Based on Dr. Bystrom's deposition testimony (she stated that some portions of the code she reviewed dated to 2001), it is open to Adobe to pursue the issue on cross-examination, should it elect to do so.

Filing 476 NOTICE of Withdrawal of Appearance by Ian Feinberg (Feinberg, Ian) |
Filing 475 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying #421 Motion in Limine. In this motion in limine, EveryScape contends that Adobe's expert, Dr. Stevenson's methodology in analyzing whether PTGui the stitching software of EveryScape's system infringes Adobe's '742 patent is unreliable because he relies on a visual inspection of the images (with and without the banding and red dot tests) to conclude that the visibility mask values of the pixels in the stitched panoramas were set to fully visible for non-overlapping areas. EveryScape faults Dr. Stevenson for not examining the underlying source code, and for not accounting for the bleeding of red and green colors from the banding in areas where the images do not overlap. The motion will be denied. There is no requirement that source code be consulted in all cases to determine the workings of software. Here the critical working (the blending of two overlapping images) is evident in the final product. Thus, visual inspections and other visual tests are entirely appropriate, even if not the only or even the most reliable method that could be employed. (Dr. Stevenson explained that he is able to come to the conclusion of complete visibility in the non-overlapping areas because there is no dark banding in the resulting panorama that would result from partial visibility in those areas.) To the extent that the results may support other underlying algorithms, EveryScape is free to cross-examine Dr. Stevenson at trial. Further, the bleeding of colors from the banding into non-overlapping areas, as Adobe aptly points out, is not an artifact of visibility masking. No amount of masking/unmaking should introduce new colors into a non-overlapping area of an image. (RGS, int2) |

Filing 469 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part #418 Motion to Strike. In this motion, defendant Adobe seeks to limit the testimony of Dr. Maja Bystrom, EveryScapes expert, in three respects. First, by excluding testimony that the Mok3 Perspective Clone Brush practiced claims of EveryScape's patent, partly because in Adobe's view Mok3 is ancient history, but principally because Dr. Bystrom is alleged to have (probably) relied on the wrong source code in reaching her opinions about Mok3. Second, to confine Dr. Bystrom's technical analysis to the Clone Stamp tool and exclude any testimony regarding the Marquee tool, which Adobe contends was beyond the scope of her charge and is essentially unmentioned in her expert report. And third, to bar Dr. Bystrom from offering opinions as to Adobe's intent and state of mind with respect to the issue of inducing infringement. The admission of expert testimony, as the parties are well aware, is within the sound discretion of the trial court. Newell Puerto Rico, Ltd. v. Rubbermaid, Inc., 20 F.3d 15, 20 (1st Cir. 1994). "[C]ourts must be cautious - except when defects are obvious on the face of a proffer - not to exclude debatable scientific evidence without affording the proponent... adequate opportunity to defend its admissibility." Cortes-Irizarry v. Corporacion Insular de Seguros, 111 F.3d 184, 188 (1st Cir. 1997). "Vigorous cross-examination, presentation of contrary evidence, and careful instruction on the burden of proof are the traditional and appropriate means of attacking shaky but admissible evidence." Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharms., Inc., 509 U.S. 579, 596 (1993). Adobe's motion will be allowed in part and denied in other respects. If Dr. Bystrom used the wrong source code for her analysis of Mok3, Adobe has salubrious fodder for its cross-examination. The court, however, is not convinced that Dr. Bystrom in fact used the wrong source code and, moreover, is of the view that her Mok3 analysis finds support elsewhere in her expert report. If the court is proved wrong in this regard, a ruling on a motion in limine is not conclusive on the issue of the reliability of expert opinion evidence, the validity of which is open to attack by the opponent at trial before the trier of fact. With respect to the Marquee tool, Adobe's position has merit. As the court has made consistently clear in any number of contexts, it takes Rule 26 seriously. If an expert has failed to disclose an opinion in her report, that opinion is not admissible and will not be admitted at trial (unless elicited by the party-opponent). With respect to the third area of disputed testimony, the court will not, on appropriate objection (as it has previously ruled), permit Dr. Bystrom to testify to Adobe's subjective intent or state of mind. Insofar as Dr. Bystrom proposes to testify to her unadorned opinion that the practice of Adobes instructional materials enables an infringer, her testimony to that effect will be allowed.

Filing 416 MOTION to Seal by Adobe Systems Incorporated.(Kessel, Adam) |
Filing 415 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying #390 Adobe's Motion to Strike Expert Testimony of David Yurkerwich. Two gateposts frame the exercise of a judge's discretion to admit or exclude expert testimony under Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharms., Inc., 509 U.S. 579 (1993). First, the witness must be shown to be sufficiently qualified by "knowledge, skill, experience, training, or education." Fed. R. Evid. 702. Second, the Federal Rules of Evidence require that the judge "ensure that any and all scientific testimony or evidence admitted is not only relevant, but [also] reliable" (and helpful to the finder of fact). Daubert, 509 U.S. at 589. Although Daubert involved an examination of novel scientific hypothesis, any thought that the Supreme Court's reworking of the Frye standard was intended only as a screen against so-called "junk science" was dispelled in Kumho Tire Co., Ltd. v. Carmichael, 526 U.S. 137 (1999). "We conclude that Daubert's general holding setting forth the trial judge's general 'gatekeeping' obligation applies not only to testimony based on 'scientific' knowledge, but also to testimony based on 'technical' and 'other specialized' knowledge." Id., at 141; see also Joy v. Bell Helicopter Textron, Inc., 999 F.2d 549, 569-570 (D.C. Cir. 1993) (applying Daubert to an examination of the reliability of an economist's opinion as to future earnings). To cut to the chase, Adobe does not seriously challenge Mr. Yurkerwich's qualifications as an economist. Nor does it question the fundamental approach he has taken in arriving at an estimation of the value of the royalties lost to EveryScape as a result of the alleged infringement. The "hypothetical willing buyer-willing seller" model is a standard economic tool that has been used by economists and appraisers for decades in determining the estimated value of lost economic opportunities. See, e.g., Comm'r of Corps. & Taxation v. Worcester Cnty. Trust, 305 Mass. 460, 462 (1940) (eminent domain); see also Georgia-Pacific Corp. v U.S. Plywood Corp, 318 F. Supp. 1116 (S.D.N.Y. 1970). Adobe's objection is to the assumptions Mr. Yurkerwich makes while applying that methodology. In essence, Adobe protests that Mr. Yurkerwich has overvalued the revenue and royalty base apportionable to Vanishing Point by considering Vanishing Point as a whole rather than segregating the incremental value added to Photoshop by the accused Clone Brush (which EveryScape claims as its proprietary invention). Adobe relies specifically on VirnetX, Inc. v. Cisco Sys., Inc., 2014 WL 4548722, at *15-18 (Fed. Cir. Sep. 16, 2014), which holds that a damages expert must attempt to apportion value specifically to the infringing features of the contested product. By failing to do so in any fashion convincing to Adobe, it contends that Mr. Yurkerwich has applied a methodology that is "illogical, untested and facially unreliable," and therefore barred by Daubert. For its part, EveryScape in essence, but not with excess oversimplification, argues that the Clone Brush is the integral component of Vanishing Point that gives added market value to its otherwise commonplace tools and features. Rhetoric aside, the dispute over the admissibility of Mr. Yurkerwich's testimony is a classic illustration of what Daubert did not intend to do. As stressed in the Advisory Note to the December 1, 2000 amendment to Fed. R. Evid. 702, Daubert "did not work a 'seachange over federal evidence law,' and 'the trial court's role as a gatekeeper is not intended to serve as a replacement for the adversary system.'" Cf. United States v. Mitchell, 365 F.3d 215, 245 (3d Cir. 2004) (Becker, J.) ("[T]he court is only a gatekeeper, and a gatekeeper alone does not protect the castle."). "Daubert does not require that a party who proffers expert testimony carry the burden of proving to the judge that the expert's assessment of the situation is correct.... In short, Daubert neither requires nor empowers trial courts to determine which of several competing theories has the best provenance. It demands only that the proponent of the evidence show that the expert's conclusion has been arrived at in a scientifically sound and methodologically reliable fashion." Ruiz-Troche v. Pepsi Cola of Puerto Rico Bottling Co., 161 F.3d 77, 85 (1st Cir. 1998) (internal citations omitted). "Vigorous cross-examination, presentation of contrary evidence, and careful instruction on the burden of proof are the traditional and appropriate means of attacking shaky, but admissible evidence." Daubert, 509 U.S. at 596. Here, Mr. Yurkerwich's testimony provides a useful point of departure (or in the eyes of the finder of fact, perhaps a terminus) in a calculation of damages (should liability be found). If Adobe's expert convinces the jury that Mr. Yurkerwich should have given an independent value to features of Vanishing Point other than the Clone Brush, or that he should have discounted the royalty base by a royalty rate, or used a different dates for the accrual of damages, these are simple mathematical adjustments that the jury can make (under expert guidance) without venturing into the realm of uncharted hypothesis. (In fairness to Mr. Yurkerwich, he did consider Adobe's expert's entire market valuation approach and gives his reasons for rejecting it as did Adobe's expert in rejecting Mr. Yurkerwich's method). In sum, I find the uncertainties raised by Mr. Yurkerwich's opinion no more daunting than those that arise in any case in which lost profits are at issue. See Herbert A. Sullivan, Inc. v. Utica Mut. Ins. Co., 439 Mass. 387, 413 (2003) ("Lost profits are notoriously difficult to prove with precision."). (RGS, int2) |

EveryScape's motion to seal is granted, provided, however, that a redacted version of the reply memorandum be filed on the public docket within one week of this order. Further, both parties have continued to flout the courts instructions and repeated reminders (see Dkt. #157, 179, #210) to file redacted versions of any key pleadings that have been sealed, including memoranda supporting dispositive motions, on the public docket. This is in accordance with the presumptive right of public access to "materials on which the court relies in determining the litigants substantive rights." United States v. Kravetz, 706 F.3d 47 (1st Cir. 2013) (quoting In re Providence Journal Co., Inc., 293 F.3d 1, 9-10 (1st Cir. 2002)). Thus, within 10 days of this order, both parties are instructed to electronically file redacted versions of any memoranda or statements of fact previously submitted under seal that are not yet accessible on the public docket. (From the courts review of the electronic docket, these include several documents filed under seal in support of and in opposition to both parties most recent motions for summary judgment filed in January and February of this year).

Filing 218 ELECTRONIC Clerk's Notes for proceedings held before Judge Richard G. Stearns: Hearing re Motion for Summary Judgment, Motion to Dismiss held on 8/27/2013. The court has taken the matter under advisement. (Court Reporter: James Gibbons at jmsgibbons@yahoo.com.)(Attorneys present: Attnys Feigelson, Airan, and Mueller for EveryScape; Attnys Scherkenbach, Kessel, and Kuznick for Adobe) (RGS, law2) |
Filing 217 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. In order that the court and the parties may make the most efficient use of the August 27, 2013 hearing, the court advises that it is its present intent to issue upon conclusion of the hearing the following order on Adobe's Motion to Dismiss and EveryScape's Motion for Summary Judgment: It is a bedrock principle of patent law that "[a]bsent the voluntary joinder of all co-owners of a patent, a co-owner acting alone will lack standing." DDB Techs., L.L.C. v. MLB Advanced Media, L.P., 517 F.3d 1284, 1289 (Fed. Cir. 2008), quoting Israel Bio-Eng'g Project v. Amgen Inc., 475 F.3d 1256, 1264-1265 (Fed. Cir. 2007). The dispositive question in this case is therefore whether EveryScape holds complete title to the patents-in-suit. That question, in turn, requires the court to determine (1) whether Dr. Dorsey is a co-inventor of the patented technology, and, even if so, (2) whether she nonetheless assigned and/or released to EveryScape any ownership interest therein. It is the court's view that the Stock Purchase Agreement cannot be fairly read to have assigned the Cloning Application, and, even assuming that the Agreement released any and all claims related to that technology, it remains to be determined whether the release is rendered unenforceable by Mok3's presently undisputed failure to disclose to Dr. Dorsey the existence of the then-pending patent application. Given Adobe's only recent discovery of Dr. Dorsey's possible claim of inventorship, the issue of inventorship, as well as that of enforceability of the release, is best addressed following a brief period of additional discovery. The parties are permitted sixty (60) days from the date of this order to conduct such discovery and shall file renewed standing motions within thirty (30) days thereafter. Should material factual disputes remain at that time, the court will conduct a bench trial to determine its jurisdiction. See Shum v. Intel Corp., 499 F.3d 1272,1278-1279 (Fed. Cir. 2007). (RGS, law2) |
Filing 216 Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying #135 Motion to Preclude Adobe from Introducing or Relying on Testimony of Dr. Julie Dorsey. The court previously rejected EveryScape's objections to Adobe's course of conduct related to the discovery of Dr. Dorsey and is not persuaded to revisit that ruling. See Feb. 26, 2013 Order on Adobe's Motion for Leave to File Its Third Amended Answer and Counterclaims. In conjunction with its review of the pending standing motions, the court will, however, consider whether and to what extent the inclusion of Dr. Dorsey's testimony warrants additional discovery.

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part #112 Motion for Leave to File Document ; Counsel using the Electronic Case Filing System should now file the document for which leave to file has been granted in accordance with the CM/ECF Administrative Procedures. Counsel must include - Leave to file granted on (date of order)- in the caption of the document. Adobe's motion for leave to file a third amended complaint is granted as to the standing, unenforceability, and inequitable conduct claims/defenses, and denied as to the correction of inventorship claim. Adobe's discovery of Dr. Dorsey, while not a model of efficiency, was not intentionally dilatory. The significance of Dr. Dorsey's stock purchase agreement is unclear at this juncture given that it contains a release but also a separate assignment of IP rights that did not included the provisional application to the asserted Everyscape patent - this issue may be more appropriately raised on summary judgment. Adobe has until March 5, 2013 to file its third amended complaint consistent with this order. (RGS, law1) |
Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part #114 Motion to Compel. In general, EveryScape is not entitled to discover damages information relating to Adobe's products other than the accused Photoshop product. On the basis of Adobe's representation that it will have produced its 30b(6) damages witness today and explained the basis of its allocation of Photoshop revenues from sales of suites, EveryScape's motion for further revenue documents and a damages witness is denied as moot. If EveryScape is not satisfied with Adobe's explanation, it may bring a further motion detailing Adobe's deficiencies. EveryScape's motion is denied as to the damages expert reports in the Tarkus case - given that the technology involved is different, these reports have little relevance to this case and involves disclosure of third-party protected information. EveryScape's motion as to license agreements is granted in part as to the narrowed set of licenses that the parties have agreed to be comparable to hypothetical license in this case. (RGS, law1) |

Filing 97 Everyscape, Inc.'s Reply Brief in Support of Motion for a Protective Order, FILED UNDER SEAL. (Flaherty, Elaine) |
Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying #72 Motion to Compel; granting #79 Motion for Protective Order. Adobe does not contest that BSA was its agent, had authority to settle software piracy claims on its behalf, and that the release BSA negotiated and executed with EveryScape was within its granted authority. Therefore, the release agreement is binding on Adobe as BSA's principal despite the unintended impact on this litigation. Although a party may not ordinarily refuse to produce discovery on the basis of the strength of its affirmative defenses, here, the release is attributable to Adobe and therefore dispositive of its claims and closes the avenue for continued litigation on the released claims.

Filing 31 Magistrate Judge Robert B. Collings: AGREED PROTECTIVE ORDER ENTERED.(Dolan, Kathleen) |
Magistrate Judge Robert B. Collings: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting #29 Motion for Protective Order. The parties agree that a protective order needs to be entered and have largely agreed on its terms. The sole dispute is whether counsel should be barred from participating in any reexamination proceedings. Specifically, plaintiff proposes that the prosecution bar not apply to representation of a patentee in reexaminations of the patent-in-suit initiated by a litigants accused of infringing that patent. The Court agrees with the plaintiff's proposal which represents the view of the majority of the cases on the subject, Crystal Image Technology, Inc. v. Mitsubishi Electric Corp., 2009 WL 1035017, *2 (W.D. Pa., Apr. 17, 2009), and shall follow those decisions in which courts have declined to extend the prosecution bar to reexamination proceedings in these circumstances. See Vasudevan Software, Inc. v. International Business Machines, Corp., 2010 WL 3629830, ** 3-4 (N.D. Cal., Sept. 4, 2010), Xerox Corp. v. Google, Inc., 270 F.R.D. 182, 184-5 (D. Del., 2010); Document Generation Corp. v. Allscripts, LLC., 2009 WL 1766096, ** 2-3 (E.D. Tex., June 23, 2009); Kenexa Brassring, Inc. v. Taleo Corp., 2009 WL 393782, *2 (D. Del., Feb. 18, 2009); Pall Corp. v. Entegris, Inc., 655 F. Supp.2d 169, 173-177 (E.D.N.Y., 2008). The Court shall therefore enter the plaintiff's version of the Protective Order. |
