Pursuant to Patent Local Rules 3-1, 3-3, and 3-6; Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 26(e),
2
33, and 37; and Local Rule 37-4, Apple Inc. (“Apple”) seeks to strike certain portions of expert

reports by Stephen Gray, Andries Van Dam, Brian Von Herzen, Woodward Yang, Tim A.
4
Williams, Jeffrey Johnson, Sam Lucente, Itay Sherman, Nicholas P. Godici, Robert John Anders,
5

Having considered the arguments of the parties and the papers submitted, and GOOD
CAUSE HAVING BEEN SHOWN, IT IS ORDERED that Apple’s Motion to Strike Portions of
Expert Reports is GRANTED.
11
For the reasons stated below, the Court strikes the portions of the expert reports of
12
Messrs. Gray, Van Dam, Von Herzen, Yang, Williams, Johnson, Lucente, Sherman, Godici,
13
Anders, and Wagner that are highlighted in the copies of those reports attached as Exhibits 2, 11-
14
12, 17-19, 23-24, 26-31, and 34 to the Declaration of Marc J. Pernick in Support of Apple’s
15
Motion to Strike Portions of Expert Reports. Those portions are also identified below.
16
1.
Opening Report of Stephen Gray (“Gray Report”), Pernick Decl. Ex. 2
17
The Court finds that many of the prior art references discussed or relied upon by
18
Mr. Gray were not disclosed in Samsung’s Patent Local Rule 3-3 Invalidity Contentions. The
19
Court is not persuaded that disclosure of the Diamond Touch System was sufficient to disclose
20
applications that run on this system or an article relating to the Diamond Touch system.
21
Accordingly, Mr. Gray shall offer no testimony in this action regarding any of these
22
undisclosed prior art references, and all portions of the Gray Report that rely on or discuss the
23
following references shall be struck, including:
24
a.

Opening Report of Andries Van Dam (“Van Dam Report”), Pernick Decl. Ex. 11
The Court finds that many of the prior art references discussed or relied upon by
21
Dr. Van Dam were not disclosed in Samsung’s Patent Local Rule 3-3 Invalidity Contentions. The
22
Court is not persuaded that these references are provided for “mere background,” or that the fact
23
that the ’566 Patent is listed on the face of the ’381 Patent excuses Samsung’s failure to disclose
24
its intent to rely on this reference. Accordingly, Dr. Van Dam shall offer no testimony in this
25
action on any of these undisclosed prior art references, and all portions of the Van Dam Report
26
that rely on or discuss the following references shall be struck, including:

Opening Report of Brian Von Herzen (“Von Herzen ’607 Report”), Pernick Decl. Ex. 12
The Court finds that (1) two of the prior art references discussed or relied upon by
12
Mr. Von Herzen, and (2) Samsung’s derivation theory were not disclosed in Samsung’s Patent
13
Local Rule 3-3 Invalidity Contentions. Patent Local Rule 3-3(b) required Samsung to disclose
14
combinations of references that it believes render the ’607 Patent obvious, and to provide the
15
details of any derivation defense. Accordingly, Mr. Von Herzen shall offer no testimony in this
16
action on any of the following :

a.

Prior Art References

The Van Dam Report has some formatting errors that cause certain paragraph numbers
to be repeated. As with all of the stricken portions, the Court therefore directs the parties’
attention to the highlighted version of Van Dam’s expert report that is attached to the Pernick
Declaration in support of Apple’s Motion to Strike.

5
6
Civil Procedure (and in any event is too opaque and unspecific to provide Apple with a

Rebuttal Report were not seasonably disclosed in response to Apple’s Interrogatory No. 2 as
required under Rules 26(e) and 33 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Samsung fails to
demonstrate that this violation was harmless or substantially justified. Accordingly, as mandated
by Rule 37(c)(1), I order that Mr. Von Herzen shall offer no testimony in this action on these noninfringement opinions, and the following portions of the Von Herzen Rebuttal Report shall be

and the following portions of the
Opening Report of Woodward Yang (“Yang Report”), Pernick Decl. Ex. 23
The Court hereby strikes from the opening expert report of Dr. Yang Paragraphs 43-46
8
and 54-56, as well as Samsung’s “Evidence of Infringement” for the second and fourth claim
9
limitations identified in Exhibit 1A-1 (“entering a first Email transmission sub-mode …” and
10
“sequentially displaying …”), page 3 of Exhibit 1A-1 (“Under the doctrine of equivalents,
11
swiping meets this claim element. Source code for the Accused Devices reflect that the
12
differences between use of scroll keys and swiping are insubstantial”), page 3 of Exhibit 1A-2,
13
and page 7 of Exhibit lA-2 as highlighted by Apple in its moving papers. Dr. Yang shall not be
14
allowed to offer at trial any testimony relating to the substance of the struck material.

16
Opening Report of Tim A. Williams (“Williams Report”), Pernick Decl. Ex. 24
The Court finds that the opinion of Dr. Williams that the first channel is all non-HARQ
17
channels (i.e., the DPDCH, DPCCH, HS-DPCCH, and E-DPCCH channels) is contrary to the
18
position put forward by Samsung in its Infringement Contentions that the “DPDCH channels” are
19
the claimed first channel not supporting HARQ. Patent Local Rule 3-1 requires all infringement
20
theories to be disclosed in a party’s Rule 3-1 disclosures. As a result, I order that Paragraphs 58,
21
65, 105, 110, 119, 173, and 198 of the Williams Report shall be stricken. Dr. Williams shall not
22
be allowed to offer at trial any testimony relating to the substance of the struck material.

9.
Opening Report of Sam Lucente (“Lucente Report”), Pernick Decl. Ex. 26
24
The Court finds that many of the opinions set forth in the Lucente Report were not
25
seasonably disclosed in response to Apple’s Interrogatory Nos. 5 and 12 as required under
26
Rules 26(e) and 33 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Samsung fails to demonstrate that
27
this violation was harmless or substantially justified. Accordingly, as mandated by Rule 37(c)(1),

The Court finds that many of the opinions set forth in the Lucente Rebuttal Report were
9
not seasonably disclosed in response to Apple’s Interrogatory Nos. 11 and 12 as required under
10
Rules 26(e) and 33 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Samsung fails to demonstrate that

opinions relating to the purported indefiniteness of the D’087 Patent and the D’677 Patent were
27
not seasonably disclosed in response to Apple’s Interrogatory No. 12. As a result, Samsung

violated Rules 26(e) and 33 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Samsung fails to
2
demonstrate that this violation was harmless or substantially justified, requiring exclusion of the
3
untimely opinions under Rule 37(c)(1).

5
Accordingly, I order that these portions of the Godici Report are struck, and that
Mr. Godici shall offer no testimony in this action on any of these matters:
6
a.
All theories and arguments that the scope of the D’889 Patent, the D’087 Patent,
7
the D’677 Patent, the D’305 Patent, or the D’334 Patent is narrow in light of
8
patents subsequently issued to Apple or Samsung. (Godici Report ¶¶ 34-54, 59-
9
63, 68-73, 115-116.)
10
b.
11
12
All theories and arguments that the drawings in the D’087 Patent or the D’677
Patent are ambiguous or unclear. (Id. ¶¶ 84-95, 117.)

Report of Robert John Anders (“Anders Report”), Pernick Decl. Ex. 30
13
The Court finds that many of the opinions set forth in the Anders Report were not
14
seasonably disclosed in response to Apple’s Interrogatory No. 11 as required under Rules 26(e)
15
and 33 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. This includes all comparisons of the D’889
16
Patent, the D’087 Patent, or the D’677 Patent with the accused products, and all comparisons of
17
any of those patents with prior art that were not disclosed before the close of discovery. This also
18
includes all prior art references that were not disclosed before the close of discovery. Samsung
19
fails to demonstrate that this violation was harmless or substantially justified. Accordingly, as
20
mandated by Rule 37(c)(1), I order that these portions of the Anders Report are struck, and that

Mr. Anders shall offer no testimony in this action on any of these matters:

Rebuttal Expert Report of Michael J. Wagner (“Rebuttal Wagner Report”), Pernick Decl.
Ex. 31
The Court finds that the underlying financial data in Tab 6 of the Rebuttal Expert Report
of Michael J. Wagner, dated April 16, 2012 (as corrected on April 20, 2012), was not produced
before the close of fact discovery. Samsung fails to demonstrate that this violation was harmless
or substantially justified. Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 37(c)(1), I order that Tab 6 of the
Wagner Rebuttal Report is stricken. Mr. Wagner shall offer no testimony in this action related to
Tab 6, the damages calculations therein, or any of the underlying data used in Tab 6.

May 11, 2012, was untimely and will be stricken in its entirety. The deadline for filing rebuttal
21
expert reports was April 16, 2012. Samsung did not seek the Court’s leave to file a supplemental
22
damages report after that date.
