June 23, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 240 LETTER addressed to Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger from Joel G. MacMull dated June 23, 2023 re: Letter in Support of Continued Redaction. Document filed by Invisible Bead Extensions, LLC. (Attachments: #1 Exhibit A, #2 Exhibit B).(MacMull, Joel)
June 22, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 239 ORDER: This order resolves the parties' dueling letter motions contending that the 30(b)(6) witness produced by the other party was inadequately prepared or otherwise did not meet the qualifications of a corporate representative designated to testify about that party's production of documents. See Dkts. 228, 237, 238. The Court has reviewed the parties' letters, their exhibits, and the deposition testimony submitted. Both letter motions are DENIED in their entirety. As for Defendant, the Court acknowledges that Defendant took an unconventional route for selecting a 30(b)(6) witness: it retained a lawyer and admitted "professional witness," Marc J. Randazza, who knew nothing about Defendant until retained by defense counsel just a week before being deposed to serve as its 30b6 witness in this case. Nevertheless, a 30(b)(6) witness need not be an employee or officer of the entity on behalf of which they testify but must be sufficiently prepared to testify knowledgeably. Based on the limited deposition testimony submitted by Plaintiff, and the preparation described by the witness as reflected in that testimony, Defendant met its obligations.

June 1, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 222 ORDER denying #220 Letter Motion to Stay. This order resolves Defendant IBE's renewed motion for a stay of discovery pending resolution of their motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint. (Dkt. 220.) The motion comes under my jurisdiction as it is non-dispositive. The motion is denied for lack of good cause, considering the substance of IBE's arguments for dismissal, the parties relative burdens, and the posture of the case. The Court has considered that IBE's motion to dismiss extends to patent, trademark, and other claims. With respect to the new patent claims in particular, the Court observes that the Revised Covenant Not To Sue, which was not before it on the motion to amend, appears to be ambiguously worded, particularly with respect to the clause or for which C&M engages in or has sufficiently concrete plans to develop new or updated technology. (See Dkt. 190-2.) Accordingly, the Court does not find it to be a sufficient basis on which to grant a stay, even in part. The Clerk of Court is respectfully requested to terminate the motion at Dkt. 220. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger on 6/1/2023) (Main Document 222 replaced on 6/1/2023) (rsh).

Lehrburger from Laura-Michelle Horgan, Esq. dated March 6, 2022. As discussed during the hearing held via Microsoft Teams on March 22, 2023, the Court resolves the parties' pending discovery issues as follows: 1. By March 29, 2023, Plaintiff shall produce to Defendant all responsive, non-privileged documents, not otherwise identified as withheld based on objection, that have not yet been produced, including but not limited to all communications attendant to NDAs entered into with factories concerning the subject matter in dispute.

March 23, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 176 ORDER terminating #172 Letter Motion for Conference re: #172 LETTER MOTION for Conference Re: Leave to Amend Complaint New Patent addressed to Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger from Laura-Michelle Horgan dated 3/15/2023. By separate order, the Court has granted in part and recommended denial in part of Plaintiff's motion to amend to add certain claims and parties. That order grants leave to amend claims relating to, inter alia, a patent that is registered to Defendant. On March 15, 2023, Plaintiff notified the court of a Notice of Allowance having issued for a second patent, Defendant's patent application 17/887,295. (Dkt. 172.) Plaintiff requests that its motion to amend be deemed to include a challenge to the validity and enforceability of the second patent. The Court denies that request because the second patent has not yet actually been registered, so there is no patent the validity or enforceability of which can be challenged. That said, however, because of the amendments being allowed at this time, some supplemental fact discovery will be necessary. The parties shall include the '295 application as a subject of that additional discovery. If the Notice of Allowance matures into registration, then Plaintiff may seek leave to amend to include the patent as registered. The Clerk of Court is respectfully requested to terminate the letter request at Dkt. 172. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger on 3/23/2023) (tg)

For the foregoing reasons, Plaintiff's motion for leave to amend the complaint is GRANTED wi th respect to the Patent Claims, the '446 Trademark Claims, and the New Defendants. The Court recommends DENYING the motion with respect to the Product Disparagement Claim.

Within 7 days of entry of this Order and Report and Recommendation, C&M shall file its Second Amended Complaint. Within 14 days of entry of this Order and Report and Recommendation, the parties shall meet and confer and file a joint proposed schedule for completing fact and expert discovery. So Ordered.

September 29, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 133 MEMO ENDORSED ORDER denying without prejudice #130 Motion to Seal. ENDORSEMENT: The motion to seal is denied without prejudice for two principal reasons. First, the Court is concerned that IBE may have been overbroad in its designation of material as confidential attorney's eyes only. Second, C&M has been overbroad in seeking to seal the entirety of its motion papers rather than properly redacting only the material designated as confidential. Accordingly, by October 6, 2022, IBE shall provide to C&M a letter identifying which specific material submitted as part of C&Ms motion to amend IBE in good faith claims as confidential attorney's only or otherwise subject to sealing. IBE must provide a brief explanation for each such designation. By October 13, 2022, C&M shall refile public versions of its motion-to-amend papers that redact only the information specifically designated as confidential attorneys eyes only or otherwise qualifying for sealing under the governing protective order. This order does not alter the existing deadlines for IBE's opposition or C&M's reply for the motion to amend. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger on 9/29/2022) (mml)

June 3, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 78 ORDER denying without prejudice #76 Letter Motion for Discovery. The application is denied without prejudice. Many of the requests appear appropriately tailored to relevant subject matter. Some of the requests appear overbroad. The parties must meet and confer live about the scope of the subpoena requests. Further, regardless of the corporate or business relationship between Kitsune and IBE, Kitsune is obligated to produce documents within its possession, custody, or control that concern IBE (and that are otherwise relevant, responsive, non-privileged). SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger on 6/3/2022) (mml)
June 3, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 77 ORDER denying without prejudice #74 LETTER MOTION for Conference addressed to Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger from Laura-Michelle Horgan, Esq. dated May 31, 2022. The request is denied without prejudice. It appears that IBE counsel responded that his firm would accept service in response to C&M counsel's request whether he would accept service; C&M counsel did not ask about representation. Further, the Court believes that direct discussions are often warranted and are more efficient than exchange of emails. That said, unprofessional behavior will not be countenanced by the Court, and the Court remains concerned by what appears to be emerging as a pattern of unprofessional conduct by IBE counsel. Counsel may record conversations with opposing counsel and/or take notes of those conversations. Unprofessional behavior will be subject to sanctions. And, counsel may renew the request for a protective order in the future should circumstances warrant. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger on 6/3/2022) (mml)
