Plaintiff,
ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR
SANCTIONS

v.
MICROSTRATEGY, INC.,
Defendant.
____________________________________/

On October 17, 2012, Plaintiff Vasudevan Software, Inc. filed a “Motion To Strike

12

[Corrected] P.R. 4-3 Joint Claim Construction And Prehearing Statement And For Other

13

Appropriate Sanctions.” VSI has failed to comply with the dictates of Federal Rule of Civil

14

Procedure 11 and Local Rule 7-8 that govern motions for sanctions. VSI did not separately file its

15

motion for sanctions or observe the 21-day safe harbor period. In light of these procedural

16

deficiencies, VSI’s motion is denied to the extent it seeks sanctions against Microstrategy. A

17

hearing will be held on the portion of VSI’s motion seeking to strike Microstrategy’s Corrected P.R.

18

4-3 Joint Claim Construction and Prehearing Statement—and that portion only—on November 15,

19

2012, as previously calendared.

20

IT IS SO ORDERED.
