well as Nokia Corporation, the court issued an order on October 2, 2013 granting-in-part Apple’s

2

motion to compel. On October 22, 2013, the parties returned to court for a further hearing. At the

3

conclusion of that hearing, the court ordered Samsung to lodge unredacted copies of all documents

4

listed in both its privilege log and its redaction log for an in camera review. The court expressed a

5

preference at that time not to impose a strict, Draconian schedule for this to occur, based on the

6

representation that many of the documents at issue are in Korean. Instead, it instructed that the

documents in English be produced “immediately,” with those in Korean being produced on a
rolling basis thereafter as they are translated into English.

Upon further reflection, and in light of the fact that Samsung has yet to lodge any

11

documents in response to the order, the court believes that a more specific and complete schedule

12

would benefit all concerned. Samsung therefore is ordered to lodge the documents as follows:

The court appreciates the challenge in producing translations so quickly. However, given

22

the resources that have been deployed in this case, it has confidence that the task can be

23

accomplished, and the court is loath to allow this process to drag on further, encroaching on the

24

parties’ impending trial date before Judge Koh.
