Proposed Dates

Court Order

Event/Authority In addition, any motion(s) for summary judgment which are dependent on claim construction will be heard at this time as well

The Court will conduct another case management conference to schedule the remainder of the case after the Court issues a claim construction ruling and its ruling(s) on any motion(s) for summary judgment that are heard on December 15, 2010. In addition, while the parties are free to participate in mediation at any time, the topic of mediation will be discussed at the case management conference which will be conducted after the Court issues a claim construction ruling and its ruling(s) on any motion(s) for summary judgment that are heard on December 15, 2010. The Court will require that mediation occur shortly before the pre-trial conference that will be scheduled at a later date. The agreed to discovery limitations set forth in paragraph 8 of Dkt. No. 41 will apply to this case. On December 2, 2008, the chapter 11 bankruptcy case of Site Technologies, Inc. ("Site Technologies") (Case No. 99-50736 (RLE)), was re-opened pursuant to an order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California. Plaintiffs believe that the patents in this case are assets of Site Technologies and that the automatic stay of Bankruptcy Code section 362 therefore applies to this action, and submit the proposed scheduling order with Defendants subject to a determination of the applicability of the automatic stay.
