INTERCARRIER COMMUNICATIONS,
LLC,
Defendant.
As an addendum to the Court’s Scheduling Order dated January 22, 2014, the Court hereby
ORDERS as follows:
As noted in the Scheduling Order, the parties must “bring any disputes regarding the

15

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

16

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

17

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

18

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

19

At the claim construction hearing, the Court prefers that the parties proceed term-by-term,

20

with each party providing its views on each term before moving on to the next. As noted in the

21

Scheduling Order, the Court will reserve no more than three hours on its schedule for the claims

22

construction hearing. The Court’s use of time limits means that the parties may not have the

23

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

24

parties should prioritize their presentations accordingly.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
