The parties’ stipulated proposal to extend page limits is APPROVED.
The parties shall meet and confer regarding the format, scope, and content of both the
tutorial and the claim construction hearing, including but not limited to the permissible subjects of
discussion at each, whether experts will testify, and what audio-visual equipment, if any, will be
needed by the parties. They also shall exchange copies of any audio-visual material at least ten

1

court days before they intend to use it in court, and shall bring any disputes regarding the format,

2

scope, or content of any tutorial or hearing to the Court’s attention at least five court days before

3

the tutorial or hearing. The Court will deem as waived any objection raised less than five court

4

days before the tutorial or hearing. The parties shall lodge hard copies of their presentation

5

materials with the Court on the day of the tutorial or claim construction hearing.

7

The Court will reserve no more than two hours on its calendar for the tutorial, including a
brief recess. The tutorial will not be reported by a court reporter.
At claim construction, the Court will construe only the terms the parties identify in their

9

Joint Claim Construction and Prehearing Statement as “most significant to the resolution of the

10

case up to a maximum of 10.” Patent Local Rule 4-3(c). The Court will reserve no more than

United States District Court
Northern District of California

8

three hours on its calendar for the claim construction hearing, including a brief recess. The Court

12

prefers that the parties proceed term-by-term, with each party providing its views on each term

13

before moving on to the next. The Court’s use of time limits means that the parties may not have

14

the opportunity to present oral argument on every term they have submitted for construction, and

15

the parties should prioritize their presentations accordingly.
