PRELIMINARY PRETRIAL CONFERENCE
SCHEDULING ORDER - (JURY TRIAL);
NOTICE OF INTENT TO APPOINT A
TECHNICAL ADVISOR; ORDER
REFERRING THE PARTIES TO
MAGISTRATE JUDGE LAPORTE FOR A
FURTHER SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE
Plaintiff,

v.
12
Research in Motion Ltd., et al.,
13
Defendants.

/

17
On January 30, 2012, the Court conducted a Preliminary Pretrial Conference. Counsel for
18
the respective parties were present. In light of the discussion at the conference, the Court orders as
19
follows:
20
(1) On or before February 1, 2012, Defendants shall propound all additional interrogatories
21
and requests for admission with respect to the late-disclosed 2000 source code to Plaintiff. On or
22
before February 17, 2012, Plaintiff shall respond to Defendants’ additional discovery requests. On
23
or before February 28, 2012, Defendants shall depose Plaintiff’s witness pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.
24
30(b)(6).
25
(2) The Court finds good cause to construe the term “establishing a connection between the
26
wireless device and the server.” On or before February 10, 2012, the parties shall file simultaneous
27
briefs on this subject, not to exceed ten pages in length. The Court will not entertain response or
28
1
reply briefs. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, the matter will be taken under submission for
2
decision without oral argument.
3
(3) The Court sets March 12, 2012 at 9 a.m. for a hearing on Defendants’ Motion for
4
Sanctions. To allow the parties to utilize the results of further discovery in their briefing, the Court
5
ORDERS expedited briefing as follows:
6
(a) On or before March 2, 2012, Defendants shall file their opening brief;
7
(b) On or before March 6, 2012, Plaintiff shall file its response.
8

United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
(4) The Court GRANTS Defendants leave to file one additional Daubert motion. The Court
sets March 12, 2012 at 9 a.m. as a hearing date for this motion. The parties shall brief this motion
in accordance with the Civil Local Rules.
11
(5) The Court continues the hearing on Defendants’ Motion to Bifurcate Trial1 currently
12
noticed for March 5, 2012 to March 12, 2012 at 9 a.m. to coincide with the hearing on all other
13
Motions. The Court amends its requirement that Plaintiff responds to this Motion by Friday,
14
February 3, 2012. Instead, Plaintiff shall file its Opposition in accordance with the Civil Local
15
Rules.
16
(6) No other Motions shall be filed at this time.
17
(7) On or before February 3, 2012, the parties shall contact the chambers of Magistrate
18
Judge Laporte to schedule a Further Settlement Conference in accordance with her availability.
19
(8) In Paragraph 3(b) of this Pretrial Order, the parties will find the Court’s directions with
20
respect to motions in limine. In addition to the limitations provided in that paragraph, the parties
21
shall file a maximum of five (5) motions in limine per side. The Court will not entertain motions
22
addressing multiple issues; each motion should address one discrete, significant issue for
23
consideration.

(Docket Item No. 697.)

(9) Upon evaluation of the preparation required for the trial of this case, the Court finds that
it would benefit from the services of a technical advisor.

a.
Standards
4
A district judge has inherent authority to appoint a technical advisor when the judge deems it
5
desirable and necessary. Ass’n of Mexican-Am. Educators v. California, 231 F.3d 572, 590 (9th Cir.
6
2000) (en banc). The exercise of this authority should be used sparingly and only in highly
7
complicated cases. TechSearch, L.L.C. v. Intel Corp., 286 F.3d 1360, 1378 (Fed. Cir. 2002)
8
(interpreting the Ninth Circuit standard for appointing technical advisors). In those limited cases,
9
where the complexity of the science and technology involves something well beyond regular
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
questions of fact and law, the district court has the inherent authority to tap the outside skill and
11
expertise of a technical advisor. Fed. Trade Comm’n v. Enforma Natural Prod., Inc., 362 F.3d 1204,
12
1213 (9th Cir. 2004); see also Reilly v. United States, 863 F.2d 149, 157 (1st Cir. 1988). The
13
technical advisor acts as educator, advising on terminology so that the district court can better
14
understand complex evidence and properly discharge its role as decisionmaker. See TechSearch,
15
286 F.3d at 1377.
16
In Reilly, while conceding that a district court has inherent authority to appoint an expert as a
17
technical advisor, the appellant argued that such power is strictly circumscribed by Fed. R. Evid.
18
706(a). 863 F.2d at 154. The First Circuit held the plain language of Rule 706(a) indicates that the
19
rule is confined to court-appointed expert witnesses and does not embrace expert advisors or
20
consultants:
21
22
23
[Rule 706(a)] establishes a procedural framework for nomination and selection of an expert
witness and for the proper performance of his role after an appointment is accepted. . . . By
and large, these modalities–though critically important in the realm customarily occupied by
an expert witness–have marginal, if any, relevance to the functioning of technical advisors.
Since an advisor, by definition, is called upon to make no findings and to supply no evidence
. . . provisions for depositions, cross-questioning, and the like are inapposite.

Proposed Order of Appointment
Accordingly, the Court gives notice to the parties that the Court intends to appoint Mr. Kwan
Chan2 as a “Technical Advisor” under the following terms:
1. Any advice provided to the Court by Mr. Chan will not be based on any extra-record
information.
6
2. To the extent that the Court may ask Mr. Chan to provide a formal written report on
7
technical advice concerning the case, a copy of the formal written report prepared by Mr. Chan shall
8
be provided to the parties. However, the Court reserves the right to have informal verbal
9
communications with Mr. Chan which are not included in any formal written report.
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
3. Mr. Chan may attend all case-related court proceedings, including the trial that is
11
scheduled to commence on June 14, 2012, to assist the Court in evaluating any technical issues that
12
may arise as the result of conflicting expert reports on the technology and prior art.
13
4. Mr. Chan may review any pleadings, motions or documents submitted to the Court.
14
5. As a Technical Advisor, Mr. Chan will make no written findings of fact and will not
15
supply any evidence to the Court. Thus, Mr. Chan will be outside the purview of “expert witnesses”
16
under Fed. R. Evid. 706. As such, the provisions in Rule 706 for depositions and questioning of
17
expert witnesses will be inapplicable to Mr. Chan. See Reilly, 863 F.2d at 155-56.
18
19
20
6. Mr. Chan will have no contact with any of the parties or their counsel except for billing
purposes.
7. Each party shall bear the cost of the Technical Advisor on a per capita basis, payable in
21
advance. Within ten (10) days of appointment, the parties shall meet and confer with Mr. Chan and
22
develop a plan to set up a trust account whereby the parties shall deposit, initially, $25,000 each to
23
cover the anticipated fees and costs. Mr. Chan shall issue statements to the parties and draw from
24
the trust account every fifteen (15) days for his performance of the appointment. Mr. Chan will bill
25
at the rate of $500.00 per hour.
26
27
28
2
Attached to this Proposed Order is a courtesy copy of Mr. Chan’s resume.
4
1
The Technical Advisor shall report to the Court on a periodic basis, every sixty (60) days,
2
regarding the state of his fees and expenses and make a recommendation to the Court as to whether
3
the trust account needs additional deposits from the parties as the case progresses. All matters
4
pertaining to the fees of Mr. Chan are referred to the assigned Magistrate Judge.
5
8. Mr. Chan shall file a declaration that he will adhere to the terms of his appointment.
6
9. On or before February 10, 2012, any party to the litigation wishing to object to Mr.
7
Chan’s appointment on any ground shall file a Notice of Objection to Appointment of Technical
8
Advisor. Among the grounds for objection, the Court specifically would wish to know of any
9
objection based on the following grounds:
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
(a) Bias on the part of Mr. Chan;
11
(b) Lack of funds to share the fees of the advisor on the part of the objecting party.
12
Any objection shall be lodged directly with the Magistrate Judge.3 The objection shall state
13
the grounds of objection and be accompanied by a supporting declaration and legal memorandum
14
supporting the objection. The Magistrate Judge shall not advise Judge Ware of the identity of any
15
party making an objection. The Magistrate Judge may confer with the parties to determine if any
16
modification of the terms of appointment would overcome the objection. If there are objections, the
17
Court requests that on or before February 17, 2012, the Magistrate Judge submits a
18
recommendation to Judge Ware in accordance with paragraphs 1-7 or as modified, or of
19
non-appointment due to objections. Judge Ware shall determine whether to make the appointment
20
under any modified terms of appointment.
21
22
23
24
25
26
3
27
The Court refers this matter to the Chief Magistrate Judge to assign the appropriate Magistrate
Judge to review potential objections and to review, post-appointment, any fees dispute that may arise.

Please note that this binder is not a substitute for filing the motions
and related papers via ECF; it is designed for the Court to evaluate the
motions.
Two copies of the binder shall be delivered to the Court (by way of the
Clerk’s Office) no later than fifteen (15) days before the date of the

9
Lodging Witness Lists and Exhibit Lists
5.
At the Final Pretrial Conference, the parties shall lodge with Chambers the joint list
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
of witnesses, and a joint list of exhibits. Unless otherwise ordered, all exhibits shall be in a format
11
compatible with either the video or digital evidence presentation system utilized by the Court. The
12
proffering party shall retain custody of all exhibits, schedules, summaries, diagrams or charts to be
13
used at the trial.
14
6.
To accommodate consideration of electronic exhibits, as the trial progresses, the
15
parties will load images of the admitted exhibits onto a stand alone hard drive or CD or DVD in
16
“pdf” format. The parties shall ensure that, apart from whatever technical material is necessary to
17
operate the system, the CD, DVD or hard drive contains only the items specified in this order and
18
nothing else. The images will be placed in a folder labeled “Admitted Exhibits” that shall contain
19
all trial exhibits received into evidence. In addition to the exhibits, themselves, the folder shall
20
contain a file labeled “List of Admitted Exhibits by Exhibit Number.” The “List” shall list in
21
numerical order by Trial Exhibit Number, each admitted exhibit, along with the date of the
22
document (where available), and a brief description of the exhibit. To the extent practicable, the
23
“List” shall be text searchable and hyperlinked to the Exhibits, themselves. The folder shall contain
24
a second filed labeled “List of Admitted Exhibits by Date.” This second “List” shall contain the
25
same information, except that the exhibits will be listed in chronological order, according to the date
26
the document was prepared. The external stand alone hard drive or CD or DVD and a printed copy
27
of the exhibit lists will be marked as exhibits and placed in evidence as demonstrative exhibits.
28

7.
1
Before the case is submitted for decision, each party will be deemed to have had an
2
opportunity to review the material described in the previous paragraph to ensure their accuracy.
3
Unless a party objects before the case is submitted for decision to the judge or jury, the party will be
4
deemed to have waived any and all objections to the submitted materials.
5
8.
To accommodate review of electronic exhibits, the parties will jointly provide the
6
jury with the following equipment: a laptop computer, the external stand alone hard drive, CD or
7
DVD, a printer (and, if practicable, an LCD projector).
8
9.
During its closing instructions, the Court will advise the jury of the form in which
exhibits will be submitted to them. The jury will also be instructed that, unless impracticable, upon
10
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
9
a juror’s written request, a printed copy of any exhibit received in evidence will be provided to the
11
jury. Before the jury retires to deliberate, the parties will provide a tutorial to the jurors on how to
12
operate the equipment, how to view the exhibits, and how to print the exhibits if the jury wishes to
13
do so. A written set of instructions on operations of the equipment will be sent into the jury room.
14
10.
When the jury is deliberating, at least one lawyer for each side shall remain in close
15
proximity to the courtroom. In the event of any technical problem, or if the jurors have questions
16
about how to operate the equipment, the jurors shall pass a note to the clerk, just as with any other
17
questions they may have. The Court will read the note to the lawyers. Those lawyers shall consult
18
with each other and with their respective technicians, and propose to the Court how they wish to
19
address the technical problem.
20
11.
The parties shall maintain a backup laptop computer and a backup hard drive with
21
identical images and data at the courthouse such that, in the event of a technical problem that cannot
22
be quickly and easily remedied, the equipment can be replaced.
23
12.
Unless the Court orders otherwise for good cause shown, the expense of the
24
equipment and the costs of preparation of the Lists and Exhibits will be shared equally among the
25
parties.
26
27
13.
This Standing Order also applies to cases tried to the Court sitting without a jury,
except that paragraphs 8-11 do not apply.
28
10
1
2
3
14.
The parties are ordered to meet and confer in advance of trial to establish a procedure
for complying with this Order with respect to electronic exhibits.
15.
Upon request, in non-complex cases the Court will excuse the parties from using
4
electronic formatted documents. In that event on the first day of trial, the parties shall submit
5
exhibits as follows:
6
a.
A copy for the trial judge;
7
b.
A copy for the witness stand.
8
c.
No duplicates of a document shall be submitted, unless the duplicate copy has
9
independent evidentiary value to prove some disputed issue of material fact

(e.g., date stamp to prove receipt on a particular date, where date of receipt is
11
a disputed issue of a material fact).
12
13
Jury Trial Schedule
16.
The time allowed for trial shall be divided equally between the plaintiff’s side and the
14
defendant’s side. Co-parties are ordered to meet, confer and agree to an allocation among
15
themselves. A party may spend its allocated time presenting its own case or on cross-examination of
16
witnesses called by other parties or for presentation of a counterclaim. When a party's allocated time
17
period has expired, unless otherwise ordered for good cause shown, no further time will be allowed
18
to that party if it would interfere with the ability of the opposing party to present its case.
19
20
21
22
23
Trial Procedure
17.
In opening statements, counsel shall not express personal knowledge or opinion
concerning any matter in issue.
18.
Counsel must question witnesses from the podium, using the microphone. Without
requesting permission, counsel may approach witnesses for any proper purposes.
24
19.
Address all remarks to the Court, not to opposing counsel.
25
20.
Refer to all persons, including witnesses, other counsel and the parties by their
26
27
28
surnames and not by their first or given names.
21.
In examining a witness, counsel shall not repeat or echo the answer given by the
witness.
11
1
22.
Counsel must stand when making an objection.
2
23.
Conferences at the bench or sidebar are not favored by the Court. Any sidebar
3
conferences which are allowed will be off the record. If any counsel wishes to place matters on the
4
record, he or she may so request, and the Court will make a responsive order.
5
24.
Counsel have full responsibility to arrange for the appearance of witnesses during the
6
presentation of their case so as to eliminate delay caused by waiting for witnesses who have been
7
placed on call by counsel.
8
25.
Unless an agreement to the contrary is entered into by opposing counsel, all nonparty
or nonexpert witnesses will be excluded from the courtroom when not testifying. When a witness
10
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
9
has completed his or her testimony, the witness is excused unless counsel indicates that he or she
11
wishes the witness to remain subject to being recalled. Any witness who has been excused from
12
further testimony may remain as a spectator. It will be the responsibility of counsel to make an
13
announcement at the time the witness steps down that he or she should remain in the environs of the
14
Court for a reasonable time to permit such counsel an opportunity to secure and serve a subpoena
15
upon the witness and assume responsibility for his or her per diem and other expenses as provided
16
by governing rule or statute.
17
26.
Counsel shall admonish all persons at counsel table that gestures, facial expressions,
18
audible comments, or the like, as manifestations of approval or disapproval during the testimony of
19
witnesses, or at any other time, are prohibited.
20
27.
Witness examination shall consist of direct examination, cross-examination and re-
21
direct examination. No recross-examination will be allowed without prior approval of the Court
22
specifically indicating the area for recross-examination. When there are multiple defense counsel,
23
they are directed to confer and designate to the Court the sequence in which they wish to be
24
recognized during trial for purposes of presenting opening statements and conducting cross-
25
examination of witnesses. If one counsel conducts the direct examination of a witness, that same
26
counsel must make objections when the witness is cross-examined. Counsel who will conduct the
27
cross-examination should object while the witness is on direct.
28
12
1
28.
After the commencement of trial testimony, upon request of co-parties, any objection,
2
motion or other application for relief made by any co-party, orally or in writing, shall be deemed to
3
be adopted and joined in by every other co-party, without announcement by counsel to that effect,
4
and the rulings of the Court shall be deemed applicable to each party unless otherwise stated at the
5
time the ruling is made. Accordingly, it shall be regarded as unnecessary and improper for counsel
6
to rise to "join in" an objection or motion. Rather, counsel should rise to be heard only for the
7
purpose of expressly opting out of an objection or motion if that is his or her position.
8
9
United States District Court
For the Northern District of California
10
29.
Counsel are directed to deliver to opposing counsel at the end of each trial day (if not
earlier) a list of witnesses counsel anticipates calling the next trial day.
30.
Counsel calling a non-client witness to testify should have no further discussions with
11
that witness concerning the case or any aspect of his or her testimony after the witness has been
12
tendered for cross-examination and until such time as the witness has been tendered back for redirect
