REQUESTS FOR PRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS AND THINGS (NOS. 9-52)

OBJECTIONS COMMON TO ALL REQUESTS FOR PRODUCTION
2
The following objections apply to each document request in Apple Inc.’s (“Apple’s”)
3 Second Set of Requests for Production of Documents and Things, whether or not stated separately
4 in response to each particular document request.
5
1.
Samsung objects to each document request to the extent that it requests documents
6 and information protected from disclosure by the attorney-client privilege, attorney work product
7 doctrine, community of interest doctrine, joint defense privilege, and/or any other applicable
8 privilege. Any such documents and information will not be provided, and an inadvertent
9 production of any document or information that Samsung believes is immune from discovery
10 pursuant to any applicable privilege shall not be deemed a waiver. Samsung may give written
11 notice to Apple that the document or information inadvertently produced is privileged or otherwise
12 protected, and upon receipt of such written notice, Apple shall immediately comply with Federal
13 Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B) and the applicable provisions of any Protective Order entered
14 in this action, including the Model Interim Protective Order.
15
2.
Samsung objects to each document request to the extent that it is vague,
16 ambiguous, overly broad, oppressive, unduly burdensome, harassing, compound, fails to identify
17 the documents and things sought with reasonable particularity, and seeks information that is
18 neither relevant nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. Where
19 a term is vague and ambiguous, Samsung will respond based on its understanding of the term.
20
3.
Samsung objects to each document request to the extent that it is not reasonably
21 limited in time or geographic scope, and to the extent it pertains to products that are not at issue in
22 this litigation.
23
4.
Samsung objects to each document request to the extent that it seeks documents
24 that are not within its possession, custody or control. In making objections and/or responding to
25 any and all requests, Samsung does not indicate that responsive documents exist within the
26 ownership, possession, custody or control of Samsung.
27
5.
Samsung objects to the definition of “Samsung,” “You,” “Your,” and
28 “Defendants” as overly broad, unduly burdensome, vague, and as calling for documents or

17 Dress,” to the extent they imply that any aspect of the Apple products’ design constitutes an
18 element of its trade dress.
19
12.
Samsung objects to the definition of “Relating” as overly broad.
20
13.
Samsung objects to Instruction Nos. 1 and 3 to the extent they ask for documents to
21 be produced “without abbreviation or redaction” or “in full.” Where applicable, Samsung will
22 redact from certain documents any non-responsive, irrelevant or privileged information.
23
14.
Samsung objects to Instruction No. 2 to the extent it asks Samsung to log any
24 privileged document dated after April 15, 2011.
25
15.
Samsung objects to each document request to the extent it seeks documents more
26 readily available to Apple than to Samsung, or equally available to Apple as to Samsung,
27 including documents and things that are publicly available.

12 conclusion.
13
21.
Samsung objects to each document request to the extent that it seeks to impose any
14 requirement or discovery obligation greater or different than those imposed by the Federal Rules
15 of Civil Procedure.
16
22.
Samsung further objects to each document request to the extent it seeks highly
17 confidential documents containing Samsung’s sensitive proprietary business information, the
18 disclosure of which could cause Samsung substantial competitive harm. Any such documents will
19 be appropriately designated under the applicable protective order and/or redacted to exclude non20 responsive, irrelevant or privileged information.
21
23.
Samsung’s investigation and analysis of the facts and law pertaining to this lawsuit
22 is ongoing. Thus, Samsung’s responses are made without prejudice to its right subsequently to
23 add, modify or otherwise change, correct, or amend these responses.
