EXAMINATION

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Good morning, Mr. Jarosz.
A. Good morning, Mr. Bridges.
Q. What do you do for a living?
A. I'm an economist.
Q. What types of work do you do as
an economist?
A. I'm not exactly sure what
you're asking. I am employed at an economic
consulting firm, and I am involved in applied
microeconomics and industrial organization,
among other things.
I apply much of my expertise to

American Society for Testing and
Materials, et al., versus
Public.Resource.Org, Incorporated,
case filed in the US District Court
for the District of Columbia, Case
Number 1:13-cv-0215 [sic] TSC-DAR.
The name of the witness is
John C. Jarosz.
Would counsel present please
introduce themselves and state whom
they represent.
MR. BRIDGES: This is Andrew
Bridges of Fenwick & West for the
defendant, and with me is Matthew
Becker.
MR. FEE: Kevin Fee from Morgan
Lewis on behalf of ASTM.
MR. REHN: Thane Rehn from
Munger, Tolles & Olson on behalf of
the National Fire Protection
Association.
MR. CUNNINGHAM: Blake

behalf of the American Society for

the valuation and evaluation of intellectual
property rights. Some of that work is in the
context of damages assessments. Some of it
outside such contexts. Some of my work is in
litigation, and some of my work is not.
Q. Have you valued any of the
intellectual property at issue in this case?
MR. FEE: Objection. Form.
MR. REHN: And -MR. FEE: Wait. Before we go
any further, should -- do you want to
get into a stipulation that they don't
have to join every objection that one
or the other plaintiffs makes, or do
you want us to make them all seriatim?
MR. BRIDGES: I'll stipulate to
that.
MR. FEE: Okay.
THE WITNESS: I'm not exactly
sure what you mean by "value," but I
haven't done a formal valuation of any
of the IP. I have evaluated the
intellectual property rights, and I
have done the assessment that you see
in my expert report.

Q. Have you made any attempt to
put a value on any of the intellectual
property rights claimed by the plaintiffs in
this case?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: What do you mean
by "value"?
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. I mean by "value" what you
referred to earlier when you stated that
among your activities is the valuation of
intellectual property rights.
A. I have not done a formal
valuation, and I have not assigned a dollar
amount to any of the intellectual property
rights at issue here.
I have evaluated the rights and
determined issues associated with harm and
irreparable harm. You see my results
contained in my report.
Q. What do you mean by "evaluating
the intellectual property rights"?
A. I have looked at, from an
economist's perspective, the rights and the

A. I don't know that there -- I -let me start this over again.
I believe there are fights
about whether the plaintiffs are entitled to
these copyrights. I don't know that there's
been a conclusion by this Court that they are
valid rights. I'm working under the
assumption that they are, but I believe the
defendant is disputing those rights.
Q. What did you do to evaluate
trademark rights in this case?
A. What I've done is summarized in
my report. I have an understanding that
there are marks and logos at issue that are
important to the plaintiffs and that Public
Resource activities impair the rights of the
plaintiffs in those trademarks and may
possibly cause confusion in the marketplace.
Q. What work did you do to
determine whether any activities of the
defendant does or may cause confusion in the
marketplace?
A. The work that you see is
summarized in my report. I haven't done
anything beyond that which is summarized

impact of having IP protection or not having
IP protection for the subject matter at
issue.
Q. Have you done anything else to
evaluate the intellectual property rights of
the plaintiffs?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I've done the
analyses underlying my report, but the
summary of the work that I've done and
the conclusions that I've drawn are
contained in my report. I don't have
other conclusions that are not
contained in those -- in that report.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What intellectual property
rights of plaintiffs have you evaluated?
A. The copyrights at issue here.
I'm sorry. Let me be -- let me
alter that by saying I have evaluated the
alleged copyrights at issue here, and I have
evaluated the trademark rights at issue here.
Q. Why did you change your
testimony to refer to "alleged copyrights"
instead of "copyrights"?

here.
Q. And by the "report," you're
referring to Exhibit 1 that I've marked and
placed before you?
A. Yes.
Q. Where did you state your
conclusions in your report regarding
trademark rights of the plaintiff -- of the
plaintiffs?
A. In part, I think it's covered
in paragraphs 150 and 151. It may be covered
in other sections.
Q. Take the time and let me know
what other sections trademark rights are
covered in.
MR. FEE: Objection. Are you
asking him to read the whole report
and answer that now?
MR. BRIDGES: No. Presumably
he's relatively familiar with it, so
it wouldn't require him to read it and
spend a great deal of time. I
don't -- he's referred to his report
in his answer, so I just want to make
sure that I have a complete

understanding.
MR. FEE: All right. Well,
take as long as you need to answer
that, then.
THE WITNESS: In part, you see
it addressed in paragraph 30.
Right now, those are the
sections that I see that touch on that
topic. There may be others that I'm
overlooking right now.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And do you need more time?
MR. FEE: Objection. Asked and
answered.
THE WITNESS: I don't think so.
I've looked through at a fairly
cursory level. If you want me to read
the whole report to make absolutely
sure, I will, but I'm not sure if
you're asking me to do that, but -BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. No, I wouldn't want to take the
time, unless counsel is willing to give me
lots of extra time or if you want to do it
during a break. But if you're confident that

from the facts.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. All right. I would like to
know where in the report your report reveals
any observations or conclusions by you about
the evaluation of the trademark rights.
MR. FEE: Just so the record is
clear, you're withdrawing the previous
question now?
MR. BRIDGES: No. It's a new
question.
MR. FEE: Okay. Well, he
didn't -Are you finished going through
the entire report and identifying
everywhere where you've evaluated the
trademarks?
Or do you not want him to keep
doing that?
MR. BRIDGES: I just -- I just
asked him a question. I'd like an
answer to the question.
MR. FEE: Okay.

Q. I'd like to know where in

those are the paragraphs that cover the
evaluation of trademark rights, then we can
proceed.
A. I'm not sure if there's a
pending question, but I didn't say I was
confident that those are the only places.
Q. Oh, then take more time,
please.
A. I think -Q. Then please -A. -- that those are the three
that address it.
Q. Well, what else reflects your
evaluation of trademark rights in this case?
A. Okay. If you'd like, I'll take
a little bit more time looking at the report.
I think in paragraph 2, I
believe part of the copying is the marks
and/or logos.
Q. And that paragraph 2 reflects
your evaluation?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Yes. My
evaluation includes understanding the
issues and then drawing conclusions

the -- in the report your report reveals any
observations or conclusions by you about your
evaluation of the trademark rights of the
plaintiffs.
MR. FEE: Objection. And I
think it would be misleading if it's
not stated for the record that he has
not gotten past paragraph 2 in
responding to the prior question, and
you've instructed him not to further
proceed with respect to that question.
You can go ahead and answer the
current question.
THE WITNESS: So right now, I'm
working under the assumption that
there's only one pending question, and
that is your most recent question.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Yes.
A. Part of the implications of
loss -- I'm sorry.
Part of the implications of
trademark infringement are reflected in
paragraph 6, though they're not stated there.
That is when I address harm. That

encompasses both the harm of loss of
copyright protection and the repercussions of
trademark infringement.
Same answer with regard to
paragraph 7.
There are also counterpart
paragraphs at the end of the report that I
think are identical to 6 and 7, so I won't
identify those numbers.
Though I didn't say it in a
number of paragraphs, I make reference to
conclusions with regard to the copyright
infringement.
I understand that the copyright
infringement is associated with certain
actions that, in part, encompass trademark
infringement, though I don't think I
explicitly said that in every section in
which I discover -- in which I discussed the
copyright protection and the conclusions
flowing from that.
I don't think I have anything
else to add besides what I have discussed
already.

report.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What facts did you rely upon
for that conclusion?
A. Well, I understand that there
has been some inaccurate copying and
dissemination of plaintiff materials. I
don't recall exactly where I got that
information from, but I believe that there's
some materials, for instance, that have been
copied and disseminated that are upside-down.
There are other materials that are difficult
to read. There may be materials that are
disseminated with the thought that those are
the most recent standards when, in fact, they
may not be.
Q. You have no idea how you
learned that information?
A. I don't recall -MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
And form.
THE WITNESS: I don't recall,
sitting here right now. I may have
seen representations in some of the
written materials, but I don't recall

about a likelihood of confusion in the
marketplace arising from the defendant's use
of the marks?
A. I haven't drawn any conclusions
with regard to that topic.
Q. And what conclusions have you
drawn about the economic value or dollar
value of the plaintiffs' trademarks?
A. I have not assigned a dollar
value to the plaintiffs' trademarks.
Q. What conclusions have you drawn
about any harm to the plaintiffs arising from
the defendant's alleged use of the
plaintiffs' marks?
A. I've drawn the conclusion that
there could be harm if the materials, in
fact, are inaccurate use -- inaccurate
copies, therefore impacting the reputation of
either the materials or the organizations in
the marketplace.
Q. What studies did you rely upon
for that conclusion?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.

than what you see reflected in my

pages in any of the defendant's materials?
A. I don't recall seeing that
personally, no.
Q. Have you seen any
difficult-to-read materials produced by the
defendant?
A. I don't recall that right now.
Q. Do you know what rationale the
defendant has for disseminating materials
that are not the most recent standards?

I know, no.

Q. On what information -- I'd like
for you to recall all the information on
which you relied for the determination that
the defendant may have engaged in activities
that may have caused any harms to the
plaintiffs' reputation.

back -- oh, I have it here. Forget

Objection to form. You're
asking him to recall, without having
all the materials in front of him?
MR. BRIDGES: Yeah.
MR. FEE: Okay.
THE WITNESS: It's all laid out
in my report, and the sources are
provided in my report. I've not
memorized all those.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. But I don't think your report
refers to upside-down materials, does it?
A. I don't recall for sure, but I
thought some of the documents that I cited
make reference to those materials. I'm not
sure that I cited the, for instance,
upside-down materials, but I think I have
discussions about that phenomenon.
Q. With whom?
A. In written materials that I've
cited.

about what you have referred to as that
phenomenon?

defective materials yourself, correct?
A. That's correct. I do not.
Q. You just relied upon the word
of others, correct?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
Mischaracterizes his testimony.
THE WITNESS: I relied upon
written documents I saw and
conversations that I had.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What written documents did you
see that discussed these issues?
MR. FEE: Objection. Asked and
answered.
THE WITNESS: And I'm sorry. I
can't point you to the particular
ones. Perhaps, through the course of
the day, my memory will be refreshed
on that.

Q. With anybody else?
A. I don't think so. It's
possible, but I'm not recalling anything
else.
Q. And when you say discussions
with "counsel here," you're referring to the
counsel at the table here today at the
deposition?
A. Correct.
And we should add to that
Jordana Rubel, who's been a person that I've
had conversations with over the last several
months.
Q. What did you do to verify any
of the statements to you from counsel about
these facts you've referred to about the
materials that the defendant has
disseminated?
A. I don't think I did separate
verification. I may have seen some documents
that provide or provided confirmation of that
fact, but I don't recall separately going out

Q. Why do you say "perhaps"?
A. I can't say with absolute
certainty what I do. But often, if something
is a direct support for a factual
observation, I will often cite that source,
but not always.
Q. What previous -- strike that.
What training or education have
you ever received with respect to standards
development organizations?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I don't recall if
I've had a course in standard
development. Probably it has been
part of some of the economics courses
that I've taken over the years.
In my profession and the work
that I've done in the last 30 years,
I've had occasion to look at and
evaluate standards organizations and
the output from those organizations.
So it is among the topics that
I've investigated in the course of my

consulting career.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. In what context?
A. There have been several matters
I've had, litigations, that have involved
standard setting organizations and the
outputs from those organizations.
Q. What organizations?
A. Well, some that come to mind
are ETSI, IEEE, the Blu-ray Association,
MPEG, MPEG L.A., the Philips 6C and Philips
3C organizations. Those are among the ones
that come to mind.
Q. And what types of litigation
did your work relating to those standard
setting organizations involve?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: It was almost all
intellectual property litigation, with
probably the bulk of the analyses
undertaken with regard to patent
rights.

standards development organization that
you've worked on?
A. Again, I'd have to go back and
look at my records. I can't right now recite
any, but there very well could be one or
more.
Q. Did you review any of your work
in -- from earlier copyright cases involving
standards development organizations in
connection with your work in this case?
A. Not to the best of my memory,
no.
Q. What background do you have in
the creation of standards by standard
development organizations?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: In the context of
some of my consulting assignments, I
have examined processes undertaken by
SDOs.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Anything else?
A. Nothing else comes to mind.
I've certainly looked at the output
associated with those processes, but there's

probably some breach of contract matters as
well.
Q. Did you work on any matters
involving copyright law where you became
familiar with the work and outputs of
standards setting organizations before this
case?
A. Probably, but I cannot say that
with absolute certainty. I've been involved
in several matters over a course of many
years.
Q. Can you name any copyright
matter involving a standards development
organization that you recall?
A. Not now, without going back and
looking at my records.
Q. Would they be listed in the
cases attached to Exhibit 1?
A. That would summarize some of my
records. The cases that are embodied in my
tab 1 are those that led to deposition or
trial testimony. I've been involved in many
matters beyond those.
Q. But sitting here, you cannot
recall any copyright case involving a

Q. What processes undertaken by
standards development organizations did you
examine?
MR. FEE: Objection. Are you
asking prior to the report still?
MR. BRIDGES: Yes.
MR. FEE: Okay.
THE WITNESS: I'm not quite -MR. BRIDGES: Or other than in
this case.
MR. FEE: Okay.
THE WITNESS: I'm not quite
sure what you're asking. I've seen
discussion of the some of the
processes of various organizations.
I'm not -- I'm not quite sure what
you're asking. Perhaps you could ask
it somewhat differently.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Well, no. You said, quote, "I
have examined processes undertaken by SDOs."
So my question is, what
processes undertaken by standards development
organizations did you examine?

A. It sounds like the same
question to me.
Q. Specifically, what processes
did you examine?
A. That still sounds like the same
question, but let me try to answer it by
saying I've looked, for instance, at the
mechanisms that ETSI undertook in developing
standards. So I am familiar generally with
the processes that it follows. Similarly
with regard to other standard setting
organizations.
Q. What other standard setting
organizations?
A. Well, I think I identified
those a few moments ago. Do you want me to
repeat those?
Q. Well, if -- are you saying
that, for all of those organizations, you
examined their processes?
A. In some dimension, probably for
most of the organizations, I had at least
some knowledge of the process. I can't say
that I investigated in depth all of the
processes for all of the organizations that

manufacturers only. Others include a wider
array of companies.
In all instances, though, the
companies are trying to -- the standards
setting organizations are trying to develop
at least some form of consensus -- sometimes
it's very broad consensus; sometimes it's
more narrow consensus -- about what would be
good for that standards setting organization.
Sometimes the SSOs are
interested in what's best for the
manufacturers and the ability for them to
supply in an interoperable environment. In
some cases, the SSOs are very alert to the
needs of consumers and users of products and
services that comply with standards.
Q. You've distinguished between
standards setting organizations and standard
development organizations. What is the
distinction that you -- that you identify
between the two?
A. I think I said I didn't know if
there is for sure a distinction, but I think
an SSO is perhaps a broader concept than an
SDO, but I might be wrong on that.

have been involved in my consulting
assignments that are standards oriented.
Q. What do you recall about your
investigation of the processes by which
standards development organizations create
their standards?
A. I should say I -- SDO is
probably not the right term to use. I should
probably say standards setting organizations.
There may be a distinction between an SSO and
an SDO.
But, generally, each SSO has a
process that's unique to its organization.
Some solicit input from a wide range of
constituents; some from a more narrow range.
The ones that I have examined
have all been fairly careful in the work that
they've done, seeking input at many steps
along the way.
Some organizations, like SDOs
at issue here, seek a broader array of inputs
than do others.
Some organizations, standards
setting organizations, include primarily or
only manufacturers and sometimes large

I know the companies -- I -the plaintiffs here are SDOs. The
associations are, among other things, in the
business of creating and developing
standards.
There could be other SSOs that
have different constituents that are of
interest to them. I don't know for sure that
an SSO is a broader concept than an SDO, but
it could be.
Q. What do you understand to be
the constituents of the plaintiffs in this
case?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I laid that out
in my report. In summary, I believe
they try to include in the process
both those -- both supply-side
entities and demand-side entities.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Who else are plaintiffs'
constituents?
MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: I can't think of
anything that doesn't fall within

of the plaintiffs?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: An individual can
be an entity, in my mind. It's not
necessarily a company.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And what do you mean by a
supply-side entity or person?
A. Those companies or individuals
that provide products or services that, among
other things, comply with the standards.
Q. Do you mean anything else by
supply-side entities or individuals?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I don't think so.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What do you mean by demand-side
entities or individuals?

open to learning that I have not
included something that I should
include.

Q. What about regulators?

question?

words. I don't understand the
question.

Q. You don't understand the

A. Correct.

entities. You've referred to demand-side
entities. I'm saying now what about

believe an entity can encompass an
individual.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. I understand, but I want the
record to be clear. And since "entity" tends
to suggest a non-breathing person, I would
like to include both breathing persons and
non-breathing legal persons in my question.
A. I'm not sure if that's a
question.
Q. The pending question was, what
do you mean by demand-side entities or
individuals?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Okay. I'm not -I'm not sure I used the phrase
"entities or individuals" when I
talked about demand side.
Regardless, it's companies or
individuals that are the users or
potential users of products or
services that, in part, comply with
the standards.

are constituents of the plaintiffs.

thought?

answer?

have I given that any thought,
perhaps.
To the question of are they a
constituent of the plaintiffs here, I
guess in some dimension they are.
They are interested parties because

they have both supply-side and

consider.

interests aside from being supply side or
demand side?

THE WITNESS: What do you mean
by "regulatory interests"?
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. You don't understand the term?
A. No, I don't know what you mean
by that term.
Q. Do they have public interests
other than supply or demand side interests?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I don't know that
it would be "other than," because I
think of the public interest as being
either demand or supply side. I don't
know what might not be included.

Q. What about somebody that has a
safety interest? How do you classify them as

The Web sites and information

that I looked at for each of the
3
plaintiffs certainly give more detail.

But, in essence, a need for a
5
standard is brought to the attention
6
of the group. That need can be
7
identified from any number of places.
8
And then a group is chartered
9
with assessing what that need is and
10
how best to respond to that need.
11
That group often comes up with
12
proposals to respond to the issue and
13
adjusts that proposal as it gets more
14
input and gives more thought.
15
Ultimately consensus is arrived
16
at for each of the organizations, and
17
a standard is developed and published.
18
The processes are slightly
19
different for each of the
20
organizations but generally follow
21
that route.

a constituent of the plaintiffs?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: It depends on who
that is. I have an interest in my
house being safe, for instance, and I
consider myself as part of the
demand-side constituency.
I think that there could be
companies that are in the business of
manufacturing smoke detectors, for
instance. I would think of them
primarily as being on the supply side,
although they're certainly alert to
the demand-side considerations.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. How do you understand the
plaintiffs here -- strike that.
What do you understand to be
the process by which the plaintiffs develop
standards?

the steps that I understand in the

see, for instance, on page 29,
paragraph 70, I have identified the
four steps that I saw that NFPA
follows in developing standards.

don't need to spend time going through the
report. I just want to know, sitting here
today, how you understand the processes
differ.
MR. FEE: Object to form, to
the extent you are asking him not to
look at his report. I think he should
be permitted to do that.
THE WITNESS: Just by -- just
going by memory, I don't recall
substantial differences in the
processes. I understand each one to
follow the general scheme that I
identified a few moments ago. I'm
quite sure that there are differences
in each plaintiff's implementation of

that scheme.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. You used the word "group"
several times in discussing the process by
which the standards -- the plaintiffs develop
standards. What did you mean by "group"?
A. I don't recall exactly what
context I used it in, but I think of a set of
individuals representing either themselves or
companies that have interest in the topic and
might have some thoughts as to how best to
address that topic and develop a standard.
The groups can be wide
assortments. Sometimes they're individual
users. Sometimes they're large company
representatives. Sometimes they're small
company representatives. Sometimes there
are -- they are employees of the SDO.
But each one of the SDOs tends
to have a fairly wide and diverse set of
groups that addresses these topics.
Q. You say some members of the
groups may be individuals, correct, and their
own -- acting on their own interest; is that
correct?

particular, but the -- the options are

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Have you -A. But I don't know that each
group assessing the need for a standard
always has representations at each level of
government.
Q. What do you know about
participation by employees of standards
development organizations in what you call
the "groups"?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: My memory is that
each one of the standard development
organizations that are at issue here
have at least one employee that's -that's involved in the process.
Sometimes those employees are
facilitators. Often that's the case.
Sometimes they have substantive input.
But they often help the process along.

"substantive input"?

understanding?

in some of the written materials, but I can't
point you to particular materials that -that I relied on for that.

individuals may participate in groups as
representatives of large companies; is that
correct?

participate as -- participate as
representatives of small companies, correct?
A. Yes.
Q. And I don't think you mentioned
that any individuals participate as
representatives of government?
A. That's probably also the case.
Q. What types of governments?

A. Some people may have particular
knowledge about a particular industry or
topic. They all have some knowledge about
the standards development process.
Q. Do you have any understanding
as to why the various individuals in the
groups participate in the standards
development process?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Generally,
they're interested in addressing a
topic of some concern and coming to a
resolution, one that's acceptable to,
at the very least, the party that
they're representing and one that
is of -- has sufficient consensus
support to be a practical and
acceptable solution to a pending
problem.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What do you mean by "a pending
problem"?
A. Typically, there's a need
identified, and the SDO has decided a
standard may help address that need. For

instance, the fire at the shirt factory in
New York a hundred years ago, it was
identified that we didn't want those
disasters to occur in the future and that we
would like to investigate avenues to minimize
such risks.
Q. What do you mean by "avenues to
minimize such risks"?
A. Well, consideration is given to
determining whether there should be quality
standards that manufacturers should comply
with in order to reduce the disastrous
outcomes that occur because of fires, for
instance.
Q. And what do you mean by
"quality standards"?
A. Just by way of example, to have
more ingress and egress available to
employees and to have that as a requirement
or have a standard that may eventually be
incorporated into law so that buildings are
erected in such a way to allow employees to
leave the building rather than be engulfed in
flames.

program and have completed most of the
requirements for my Ph.D. but not all.
Q. What interests do you

that.
What interests do you
understand the plaintiffs to have in having
standards incorporated into law?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I think that's
laid out in my report in a variety of
ways; but generally, the plaintiffs
are interested in effectuating their
charters, and that is they want to
address certain problems in an
effective way. And if those solutions
get incorporated into standards and
those standards get incorporated by
reference into law, that can be an
effective way for dissemination of a
solution.

"incorporated into law"?
MR. FEE: Objection. Calls for

THE WITNESS: As an economist,
I generally understand it to be that
there's some federal, state, and local
laws that make reference to certain
standards and have that reference as
part of the law.
The legal implications I am
certainly not an expert in, and I
hesitate to characterize any more than
I have.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Well, you, in fact, have a law
degree, correct?
A. I have a law degree. I am not
now, nor have I ever been a practicing
attorney.
Q. Okay. But you have a juris
doctor degree, correct?
A. Is that different from a law
degree?
Q. It's a type of law degree.

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What do you mean by
"effectuating" the plaintiffs' charters?
A. Well, each plaintiff has a goal
or set of goals it would like to achieve,
whether that's safety or interoperability.
But generally, they want to achieve a
socially good purpose and one that is good
for members of the industry.
Q. In your answer, you're
referring specifically to these plaintiffs?
A. Yes.
Q. Do these plaintiffs have an
interoperability goal?
A. I don't think explicitly, but I
think -- I don't think as part of the charter
for the plaintiff, but I think with regard to
certain topics that they address
interoperability helps achieve some of those
goals of the individual topics that help
achieve the overall goals of the
organization.
Q. What are some of the goals of
interoperability that you've identified for
plaintiffs?

Q. In your work on -- in your work
on this matter for the plaintiffs.
A. I'm not exactly sure what
you're asking, but I talked about the merits
of interoperability and why these
organizations -- why certain standards are
oriented toward interoperability.
I think one of the specific
illustrations is -- of the need for and the
achieving of interoperability goals is the
NEC. That allows one to safely and
effectively receive power across the world.
That's good for manufacturers, and it's good
for consumers.
Q. You said that plaintiffs are
interested, I believe, in addressing certain
problems in an effective way. Do you recall
that?
A. Generally I recall that, yes.
Q. And, generally speaking,
referring to these plaintiffs, what are the
problems you understand them to be trying to
address?

THE WITNESS: Generally, ASTM
is addressing problems associated with
public health and safety; support -protection and sustainability of the
environment; overall quality of life;
the reliability of materials, product
systems, and services; and
facilitating international, regional,
and national commerce.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Now, those are problems?
A. They are trying to achieve
their mission by addressing problems that may
stand in the way of achieving those missions.
Q. So please give me an example of
some problems that the plaintiffs are trying
to address. My questioning has been focused
on problems. You've been responding about
mission, but I -- I'd like for you to
identify some of the problems, generally
speaking, that you understand the plaintiffs
are trying to address.

mission, as I understand it.
In paragraph 68 I've laid out
the NFPA mission, as I understand it.
And in paragraph 73 I've laid
out the ASHRAE mission, as I
understand it.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So now my question is, what are
the problems that you understand the
plaintiffs are trying to address in an
effective way?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Well, generally,
they're addressing the mission that
they have here and their individual
problems that are brought to the SDOs'
attention that, if addressed
effectively, would help each
organization fulfill its mission.

knowledge?
A. I'd rather not.

us what you can recall about the -- about the
problems that plaintiffs are trying to
address.
A. So you don't -MR. FEE: Objection.
THE WITNESS: -- want me to

I'd like to know what you happen to know,
sitting here.

THE WITNESS: By way of

example, ASTM has addressed problems
13
associated with the safety of

amusement rides.

By way of example, NFP [sic]
16
has addressed problems associated with

electrical fires in buildings.

addressing -- but I'm not thinking of

advisable practice, and that practice is
intended to address existing and potential
problems."
What did you mean by "practice"
in that answer?
A. It was an example of what
somebody should do.
Q. And what do you mean by "what
somebody should do"?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: I don't know how
to define it any more than that. I'm
sorry.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Is it a course of action that
somebody should take?
A. That would be another way to
say it. I don't think that's a definition.
It's -- it's another presentation of what I
said.

You said earlier that the
plaintiffs are interested in effectuating
their charters, and that is they want to
address certain problems in an effective way.
And if those solutions get incorporated into
standards and those standards get
incorporated into law, that can be an
effective way for dissemination of a
solution.
Do you recall that testimony?
A. Yes, I do.
Q. What did you mean by
"solutions" in that context?
A. Standards are a form of
solution.
Q. In what respect?
A. They provide definition around
what is a best practice, an advisable
practice, and that practice is intended to
address existing and potential problems.
Q. And what do you mean by
"practices" in that -- in your answer?
A. Perhaps you could read it back,
and that will help me answer the question.

plaintiffs' standards?

is the question?

articulate optimal procedures for
accomplishing certain results.

What makes incorporation into
law an effective way for dissemination of a
solution with respect to the plaintiffs'
activities?

certainly not -MR. FEE: It mischaracterizes
his prior testimony.
THE WITNESS: I -- I'm not a
legal expert, and I'm not an expert of
an -- on the topic of incorporation by
reference into law.
But if a particular statute
lays out that legally someone must
follow what's laid out in certain
standards, I would expect that,
because most people are interested in
lawful rather than unlawful activity,
that people would follow that dictate.

know, it would be an effective way.

any harms that the plaintiffs have actually
suffered to date as a consequence of the
defendant's activities?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: To the extent I
have, it's embodied in my report.
You'll see there's a little bit of
evidence of actual tangible harm to
date, and there's certainly more
discussion of harm. The tangible
evidence I have is reflected in my
report.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And what do you understand that
evidence to be?
A. I believe the number of
downloads from the Public Resource
dissemination have been fairly substantial.
I believe that the purchase of publications
has declined some at the plaintiffs -- at the
various plaintiffs. It certainly has not
risen. Those are among the things that come
to mind.
I think I discuss the topic in
more depth in paragraph, among other thing --

you just said, quote, "I am not sure that the
impact from the past would be close to the
impact that will occur in the future if the
Court finds that there has been no copyright
or trademark infringement."
A. It's everything laid out in my
report. I -- it's really the -- at the heart
of what I did.
Q. And please summarize for me
what data you base that statement on.
A. That's identified in my report.
Q. Okay. Show me, please, in the
report.
A. It's all of what's in
Exhibit 1.
Q. No, I want -- I want the basis
for your statement that the impact from
conduct to date -- strike that -- that you're
not sure that the impact from the conduct to
date would be close to the impact that will
occur in the future if the Court find -makes a certain finding, right?

report.
Q. Have you been able to quantify
any financial losses to plaintiffs as a
consequence of defendant's activities?
A. No.
Q. Why not?
A. Not with any great certainty.
Q. Why not?
A. Well, I don't have the records
that would allow me to do that. Moreover, I
am not sure that the impact from the past
will be close to the impact that will occur
in the future if the Court finds that there
has been no copyright or trademark
infringement.
Q. Why do you make the statement
you just did? What's your basis for it?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I think there
were a few things in my statement.
Which would you like me to expound on?

things, paragraphs 112 through 155.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So these are the "Costs of
Losing Copyright Protection"; is that
correct?
A. That's the title of this
section, and then there's some discussion of
trademark protection as well.
Q. And those would be the harms
that you identify that would flow from a
decision by the Court that the plaintiffs
cannot enforce their copyrights against the
defendant, correct?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: What I can say -I'm sorry.
MR. FEE: I just objected to

with a reasonable degree of certainty.

would be the harm to the plaintiffs if
there's no permanent injunction.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Well, what did you mean by
"losing copyright protection" in the
paragraph -- in the heading VI on page 48?
A. In essence, you can think of it
as what would happen if there's no permanent
injunction. In other words, what the
defendant has done in the past and what it's
likely to do in the future is allowed to
continue.
Q. And you immediately go into
paragraph 112 talking about Emily Bremer,
correct?
A. I don't know what you mean by
"immediately." It's the first paragraph in
Section VI.
Q. Right. Was Emily Bremer in the
passage you referred to referring to the
presence or absence of a permanent injunction
in this case?
A. I don't think explicitly she

paragraph 133, with regard to tangible
evidence on harm. With regard to other
evidence, it's throughout the report.
Q. So why would it make a
difference to what the defendant's harms
are -- strike -- strike that.
Why would it make a defendants
[sic] to the plaintiffs' harms if the
plaintiffs' harms were continue with -strike that.
Is it your testimony that harms
to plaintiffs would be different depending on
the particular basis of the Court's ruling?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: I -- I don't
understand your question.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. It looks as though you're
stating what the harms would be if the Court
found that incorporation by reference would
cause the plaintiffs to lose copyright
protection; is that correct?
A. I don't -MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.

was addressing that issue, no.
Q. Do you think implicitly she was
referring to this case?
A. No. I thought you were asking
about permanent injunction. I don't think
she was addressing the -- an injunction
issue. She was addressing the concept of
copyright protection.
Q. And that's what you quoted her
for, right, was for the concept of copyright
protection for standards?
MR. FEE: Objection. You're
referring just to paragraph 112?
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. You may answer.
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I -- I don't
understand the question.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. You quoted her in
paragraph 112, correct?
A. Yes. From one of her two
articles, yes.
Q. Right. Regarding the concept
of copyright protection?

A. Generally. I think she's
talking about standards development and
incorporation by reference. I don't remember
if she said at the very beginning of the
article that it was about copyright
protection, but she certainly talks about
copyright protection.
Q. And you're quoting her about
losing copyright protection, and you're
placing it in the context of harms of the
loss of copyright protection, correct?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: This excerpt
doesn't specifically talk about losing
copyright protection, but it talks
about the concept of it. If there was
no longer copyright protection granted
to the SDOs, what would be the
repercussions.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And that's the context that you
identified in the first line of
paragraph 112, correct?
A. Yes.

Q. "Such products" -A. And in the next two sentences.
Q. And these are other products
that "could include more sophisticated
Web-based availability, published
compilations of incorporated standards, and
other ancillary products that incorporate the
standards"; isn't that correct?
A. You didn't read that right. It
starts "such products could include."
Q. Okay. Otherwise, that reading
is correct, correct?
A. I think so.
Q. You consider that to be harm to
the plaintiffs?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: It could be, yes.
It's likely to be, if the copyright
infringement or the assumption of a
copyright infringement continues. It
could broaden.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Right. But the fact that these
other types of products would enter the
marketplace is part of the harm that you

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Let me direct your attention to
paragraph 35 of your report. It says, "With
regard to expansion beyond the specific
actions of Public Resource here, the
'product' offerings of Public Resource scans of paper copies of standards with some
rekeying of text and some redrawing of
diagrams (with some containing errors) represent a rudimentary first step in the use
of Plaintiffs' standards that is likely to
become much more sophisticated if the Court
holds that third parties are free to use
Plaintiffs' standards with impunity after
they are incorporated by reference into law."
Do you see that?
A. Yes, I do.
Q. That is your statement,
correct?
A. Yes.
Q. What are the steps that you're
envisioning there beyond the rudimentary
first step that you identify?
A. I think they're laid out in the
next sentence.

envision from the defendant in this case?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: It's potential -there's a potential that the defendant
could do that. There's also the
potential that other parties could do
that.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What -A. I don't know for sure what the
defendant has in mind.
Q. Why did you take into account
harms caused by other parties in this case?
A. Because -MR. FEE: Objection. Lack of
foundation.
Go ahead.
THE WITNESS: If no copyright
protection is allowed here, in other
words, there's no permanent
injunction, Public Resource and other
parties like it will have freedom to
do what the plaintiffs believe they
should not have freedom to do.

Q. In other words, if the Court
makes a decision in a certain way, there will
be harms from persons or entities other than
Public.Resource.Org to the plaintiffs? Is
that your testimony?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: You used the
phrase "in a certain way." I don't
know what you mean by that. I'm
addressing the issue of whether there
should be a permanent injunction or
not.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So your view is that, if the
Court does not enter a permanent injunction,
the plaintiffs will suffer harms from parties
other than Public.Resource.Org. Is that your
testimony?
A. That potential exists. I don't
know for sure. That's, in part, why the harm
is irreparable or very difficult to quantify.
Q. The -- what harm?
A. Continuing activity of Public
Resource and others. I don't know exactly
what will happen, but the potential is that

standards.
Q. What further harm would
Public.Resource.Org cause to plaintiffs with
respect to the standards at issue in this
case if no -- if the Court does not
permanently enjoin Public.Resource.Org?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: If there's no
permanent injunction, there will, in
essence, be a message sent to the
marketplace that the standards that
have already been disseminated are out
there and can be used by others.
So right now my expectation is
that some number of consumers of the
standards have been reluctant or
unknowing as to the standards
disseminated by Public Resource. Now
there will be more knowledge about
that and more approval of that
activity. That is if there's no
permanent injunction.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What harms will plaintiffs
suffer if the Court rules that the plaintiffs

there could be very broad dissemination of
the standards, which would impact these SDOs
tremendously.
Q. What harm would
Public.Resource.Org cause to plaintiffs if
there is no permanent injunction?
A. A permanent injunction would -lack of a permanent injunction would harm the
SDOs.
Q. That wasn't my question. My
question was, what harm would
Public.Resource.Org cause to plaintiffs if
there is no permanent injunction?
A. At the very least, it's
associated with its historical dissemination
of these standards, and there would be, in
essence, a carte blanche for other
organizations or individuals to access those.
So my expectation is that the
dissemination of the materials that have
already been disseminated will expand.
It could also be the case that
Public Resource will undertake further
activities that would disseminate either
already disseminated standards or other

you're asking if there's no copyright
infringement?
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. No. What harms -- have you
identified what harms the plaintiffs would
suffer if the Court rules that the plaintiffs
do not own the copyrights at issue, that
there are no copyrights that the plaintiffs
own -MR. FEE: Objection to form.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. -- at issue in this case?
A. I haven't addressed or thought
about that issue. There are also, don't
forget, trademark issues.
Q. I'm asking about copyright, so
I ask you to confine your answers to my
questions.
My question is, what -- you
assume for purposes of your analysis that
plaintiffs own valid copyrights, correct?

Q. And you assume infringement
without assuming ownership of the copyrights?
A. I haven't made any explicit
assumption with regard to ownership. I know
that's an issue in this case, but it's well
beyond my expertise.
Q. So if it turns out that -- do
you understand your testimony to have any
bearing on whether plaintiffs' standards are
copyrightable?
MR. FEE: Objection. Calls for
speculation.
I would instruct you to not
disclose any communications you had
with counsel that weren't the basis
for any of your opinions in this case.
You can otherwise answer.

looking at harm associated with
copyright infringement.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Do you have any expertise with
respect to harm caused by invalidation of
copyrights?
MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: I'm not quite

economics of IP protection. One of
the areas in which I do work is harm
associated with copyright protection.

that I've cited, and some of those
talk about the standard development
process and why participants are
active in the process. So in that
regard, I've considered incentives.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What do you understand the
incentives to be?
A. Well, for the supply side
constituents, they're interested in effective
manufacturing and selling of products that
will -- and services that will be well
received in the marketplace; and on the
demand side, the constituents are interested
in products and services that address certain
quality and compatibility issues or problems
and help resolve those.

creates the text of the standards?

standards writing process have?
A. I'm sorry. Other than what?
Q. Other than the incentives you
referred to earlier of the supply-side
constituents and the demand-side
constituents.
A. Nothing else comes to mind,
although I'm certainly open to the fact that
I haven't thought of or expressed all the
incentives.
Q. Well, what other incentives can
you think of as you sit here?
A. As I just said, nothing else

words?
A. I think a number of
constituents do, typically.
Q. What types of constituents
suggest the words of the standards?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I think it's
sometimes SDO employees. I think,
more times than not, it's industry
participants, often supply-side
people, sometimes demand-side people.
Frequently those people are working
from preexisting standards or similar
standards and revising those as
appropriate.
So I think a number of people
have input to the words.
BY MR. BRIDGES:

instances where SDO employees have proposed
text as opposed to editing text?

particular issue or problem that those
constituents face.

organizations, so they're not

activities, but they're certainly
intending to fund their activities

Q. What do you understand the
activities of the standards development
organizations to be in creating the standards
at issue in this case?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: At the very
least, they facilitate the process
through arranging logistics. They do
other things, including participate in
discussions, and -- as I understand
it, and create versions of proposed
standards.
They also serve as a

various constituents to identify and address
issues that those constituents face in a

They are involved in teaching
and training sometimes associated with
standards.
They participate in advertising
campaigns about the output of the SDO.
Those are among the things that
they contribute.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And when you say "providing
people to be involved and pay salaries,"
you're talking about the -- generally
speaking, the staff members who may functions
as liaisons to various committees and groups
that draft the standards?

Lack of foundation.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Is that what you understand?
A. Staff people that help
facilitate. Some are purely helping in a
logistics front. Others are helping on a
more substantive front. They pay their
salaries. They pay taxes, provide benefits.

expenditures.
MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: There are many
types, as I understand it. One type
is simply providing people to be
involved in the process and paying the
salaries of those people.
I think they probably provide
computing resources to help produce
the standards.
I think they probably provide
meeting resources.
I think they probably provide
an e-mail exchange mechanism by which
information is shared.
I think they create copies of

of the things that are done.
Q. On page 76 -- sorry -- page 33.
Let me ask you to turn to paragraph 76 of
your report. Are you there?
A. I am, yes.
Q. In the final sentence, it says,
"In fiscal year 2014, ASHRAE spent more than
$1 million to cover the costs of developing
or updating its standards."
Do you see that?
A. I do, yes.
Q. Are -- on -- how many years is
the typical cycle for revision of ASHRAE's
90.1 standard?
A. That is under continuous
maintenance, and I think that's -- it's
supplemented and updated automatically every
three years. Perhaps they address it more
frequently, but at least every three years.
Q. So it would be fair to assume
that, during one cycle, ASHRAE spent
something over $3 million to cover the costs
of developing or updating its standards?
A. You said at least $3 million?

Q. Well, that's a good question.
What -- what's -- what did you intend the
last sentence in paragraph 76 to refer to?
All of its standards or 90.1?
A. I think it's all of its
standards, but we could visit the screenshot
from the Web site to confirm that.
Q. Okay.
A. I -- I could be wrong. I don't
think I am, but I could be.
Q. Okay. In the previous
sentence, you say, "ASHRAE and its volunteer
members devoted more than 86,400 man-hours,
3,600 hotel nights, and 1,200 round-trip
flights as part of the process."
And that -- "the process"
appears to refer to updating the ASHRAE 90.1
standard, correct?
A. Yes.

volunteer members," and then you give those

THE WITNESS: Again, I don't
have an estimate.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Do you know -- did ASHRAE pay
for the time, the hotel bills, and the plane
fares of its volunteer members in updating
the ASHRAE 90.1 standard?
A. I would expect rarely. It's
possible that there are certain instances in
which there was some set of out-of-pocket
expenses covered, but I would imagine the
bulk of the time it's the volunteer's
employer.
MR. BRIDGES: Sorry. How long
have we been going? I didn't get when
we went back on.
MR. FEE: 34 minutes.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you speak with Emily Bremer
at any point in this case?
A. No.
Q. How did you become acquainted
with her writings?
A. I think Kevin Fee and/or
Jordana Rubel brought to my attention that

statistics, those statistics refer primarily
to the man-hours, hotel nights, and
round-trip flights of the volunteer members?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: Probably. As
opposed to ASHRAE-employed staff.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Do you know how much ASHRAE's
volunteer members and their employers -strike that.
Do you know how much ASHRAE's
volunteer members and their employers spent
in salaries and disbursements for the
man-hours, hotel nights, and round-trip
flights that were part of the process of
updating the ASHRAE 90.1 standard?
A. I don't know, but it -- I would
imagine it's a noticeable amount, but I don't
know the amount.
Q. What would be your best
estimate?
A. I don't have a best estimate.
Q. Would it be probably over
$10 million?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.

she had written on this topic. I don't
recall whether then we separately obtained
her two articles or Mr. Fee slash Ms. Rubel
provided those to us.
Q. What independent work did you
do to research writings regarding the
economics of standards development?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: We did
independent research in the sense that
people that work with me did a
literature search to determine what
writings had been done in the area.
I was previously aware of some
amount of the scholarship to begin
with.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. How is that literature search
reflected in any documents?
A. The results are shown in my
tab 2, and in particular it is page 2 of my
tab 2, at the bottom.
Q. And were these items found by
you or your team?

lawyers at Morgan Lewis brought to our
attention the Bremer -- the existence
of Bremer articles.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you study any of the
materials that Bremer -- strike that.
Bremer's articles are law
review articles, correct?
A. Yes.
Q. Did any plaintiff -- did your
team's research identify any articles that
you chose not to include in tab 2?
A. I don't think so.
Q. Did any plaintiff or its
counsel furnish you with correspondence
between the plaintiffs and Emily Bremer for
review?
A. No, not to my knowledge.
Q. How many conversations with
representatives of the plaintiffs did you
have?

the various plaintiffs.
Q. With whom?
A. They are all identified in
paragraph 10 of my report.
Q. Which of those did you
personally have conversations with?
A. All of them, as I recall. It's
possible there's someone I did not, but I'm
not remembering that being the case.
Q. Approximately how long did you
spend with -- did you have conversations with
any of them together?
A. Yes, several of them were
together.
Q. Which ones?
A. I don't recall all
combinations. I can say with some confidence
that there was never more than one plaintiff
on a call. In other words, there were
several people from a particular plaintiff on
a call, but not more than one plaintiff.
So I had various combinations
of calls with ASTM that may have occurred on
three occasions; with NFPA, one or two
occasions; and with ASHRAE, one or two

answer questions regarding
communications with counsel, unless
they formed the basis of your
opinions, in which case you can answer
questions with respect to those
conversations.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So I -- I'll change my question
slightly.
How many -- how many
conversations did you have with non-lawyer
employees or former employees of the
plaintiffs?
A. None that the -- that did not
include the lawyers.
Q. Right. I'm -- so I'm asking
you to tell me what they were. If the
presence of lawyer -- if you had a
conversation with a -- with an employee or
former employee of the plaintiff, I'd like to
know what that was. So the fact that lawyers
may have been present wouldn't excuse it from
the scope of the answer.
A. I had somewhere between four
and six conversations with people who were at

occasions.
Q. And approximately how long
total did you spend in conversations with
representatives of each plaintiff?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Cumulatively,
somewhere between three and five hours
is my best guess right now.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. When you say cumulative -"cumulatively," you mean for all plaintiffs?
A. Yes. Meaning I'm -- I've added
up the conversations I had across all three
plaintiffs.
Q. Right. What's your best
estimate as to the period of time you spent
with each plaintiff?
A. With ASTM, it may have been two
to three hours. For NFPA, one to two hours.
For ASHRAE, one to two hours. That's my best
guess right now.

Q. Mr. Jarosz, I'm handing you
Exhibits 2 and 3. I'll represent that these
were furnished to us by e-mail last night, I
think around 6 p.m. Eastern or thereabouts.
Can you please identify
Exhibits 2 and 3?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: To the best of my
knowledge, Exhibit 2 is notes that
Mr. Chapman took in conversations that
we had with various people, and
Exhibit 3 is notes that Mr. Hamasaki
took in conversations with plaintiff
personnel.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you take any notes of
conversations with plaintiffs' personnel?
A. I believe I did, but I did not
keep those notes. Those were -- I followed
my normal procedure. And by the time we got
to the report, I had not kept those notes.
Q. Did you have those -- did you
refer to those notes in drafting your report?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.

Hamasaki?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: Yes, in part.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What else, other than relying
upon conversations with them?
A. And the memory that I had of
the conversations with the individuals.
Q. And you -- but you didn't rely
upon your own notes?
A. Not at the point that I was
drafting up footnotes, no.
Q. Why would you take notes and
then dispose of them before you wrote your
report?
A. Well, I find it -- I find it
useful to follow along in a conversation by
taking notes so that I can follow up with
certain points. I find it useful to write
things down. It helps in the memory process.
But I did not keep those notes in the final
drafting of the report.
Q. Why would you -- when you had
those conversations, did you anticipate that
you were going to prepare a report?

THE WITNESS: Not that I

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. In your report -A. Well, I guess I should say, I
looked back at the notes at some time, and
the report was done over a period of time.
So I guess in some dimension I did, but as it
came toward the final stages, I did not.
Q. Well, I'm just curious, because
your report indicates, among a number of the
footnotes, there's citations to conversations
with various persons. And I'm trying to
figure out how -- on what you drew to cite
specifically to various conversations in your
report. And I'll give you examples.
Footnotes 193, 194, and 196 through 200.
On what were you relying in
referring to those conversations?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Conversations
with Mr. Chapman and/or Mr. Hamasaki.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So you were relying on
conversations with Messrs. Chapman and

A. I thought that there was a very
good possibility, yes.
Q. Why did you not retain notes of
conversations to have on hand for the
preparation of your report?
A. I followed my normal procedure.
I don't typically take notes. I'm not a
great note-taker, and my handwriting leaves
much to be desired. So I tend to find my
notes themselves to be of limited assistance.
Q. And that's your normal
procedure, is to throw away notes that
reflect conversations that you rely on?
A. No. My normal procedure is to
keep materials that I do rely upon and not
keep materials that I don't need to rely
upon.
Q. And you didn't need to rely
upon any of your notes to recall your
conversations, so you went and discussed the
conversations with two other persons?
A. Yes.
Q. Did -- I see -- it's my
understanding that your report sites
conversations with Stephen Comstock 17 times,

conversations with Jim Thomas 11 times,
conversations with Jim Pauley seven times,
conversations with John Pace four times,
conversations with Stephanie Reiniche four
times, and conversations with Mark Owen three
times.
Did you make the citations to
those conversations in the report based on
your memory?
MR. FEE: Objection. Lack of
foundation.
THE WITNESS: In part, and I
think in part the citations were put
there based on the memory and
knowledge of Mr. Chapman and
Mr. Hamasaki.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you get any materials from
Mr. Chapman and Mr. Hamasaki other than
Exhibits 2 and 3 on which you relied in
preparing this report?

to include language regarding information
learned from conversations in your report?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: I can answer that
by saying Mr. Hamasaki, Mr. Chapman,
and I were all involved in this
project and the report. It was the
case that we all had some input in the
writing of the words, though I was
responsible for and directly
supervised all of it.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And did you rely upon input
from Mr. Hamasaki and Mr. Chapman in the form
of written input, such as drafts?
MR. FEE: Objection.
THE WITNESS: As I -MR. FEE: Hold on a second.
I don't believe that you're
entitled to discovery regarding his
drafts, and I'll instruct him not to
answer that -MR. BRIDGES: I --

factual matter, this is the very first
time I've seen these notes. I've
never seen these before.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What did you rely upon in
making all of the detailed references to
conversations in the report?
A. My -MR. FEE: Objection. Asked and
answered.
THE WITNESS: My memory of
conversations with those individuals
and conversations that I had with
Mr. Hamasaki and Mr. Chapman.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did anyone else prepare the
language regarding that -- the information
from those conversations that you relied upon
in creating your report?
A. No, not to my knowledge. Now,
lawyers did look at draft of the report,
although we're not going into the substance
of it. But that was -- we could, in part, be
refreshed if we were wrong as to any cite,
but I don't think we were.

makes this subject to an exception of
Rule 26, as limitation on discovery
from experts, which I'm not aware of.
MR. BRIDGES: I am entitled to
discovery about materials he relied
upon -MR. FEE: Okay. That's fair.
MR. BRIDGES: -- and that is my
question.
MR. FEE: Okay.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And I'd like to know if you
relied upon drafts prepared by other persons
regarding the statements and facts for which
conversations are mentioned in the citations.
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I don't know how
to answer that besides what I said a
moment ago, and let me perhaps say it
a little bit differently and see if
that's responsive.
Mr. Hamasaki, Mr. Chapman, and
I were all involved in this project
Page 103
Page 105

and in this report. We were all
2
involved in writing and rewriting and
3
talking and questioning one another.
4 BY MR. BRIDGES:
5
Q. And were you relying, in part,
6 upon the memories or recorded memories of
7 Mr. Hamasaki and Mr. Chapman?
8
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague as
9
to "relying."
10
And if you're asking him if
11
he's relied upon those conversations
12
as the basis for facts or assumptions,
13
you can answer it. If you mean relied
14
in any other context, you shouldn't
15
answer it.
16
THE WITNESS: I certainly
17
didn't rely on any recordings of
18
conversations. I had not seen any
19
notes. This is the first I've seen
20
notes from Mr. Chapman and
21
Mr. Hamasaki.
22
We talked about virtually all
23
of these topics. I don't know if you
24
would call that "relying" or not. But
25
we worked together on this project.

go behind him or vice versa.
So I don't know if that answers
your question, but that's the process
that we followed.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And did the process include
their writing the facts that corresponded to
the conversations with plaintiffs' employees
and your reviewing and revising what they had
written?
MR. FEE: Objection.
To the extent that question
calls for responsive information that
is unrelated to bases that form your
opinions or conclusions or assumptions
that you made, I would instruct you
not to answer that portion of the
question. You can otherwise respond.
THE WITNESS: We all reviewed
and revised the document. I don't
think that there were any facts that
came only from one of them that I
wasn't aware of.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Were there recollections that

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did they prepare draft language

conversations with citations to those
conversations that you relied upon in
completing the report?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague as
to "relied."
To the extent that should be
interpreted as meaning relied upon for
reaching any conclusions in your
report or relied upon for assumptions,
you can answer it. You shouldn't
answer it otherwise.
THE WITNESS: I just don't know
how to answer that question besides
saying, at various points in time, one
or the other -- others of us were
involved in the Word document that we
created. So it was almost never the
case that the three of us were in the
Word document at the same time.
So there were times that, for
instance, Mr. Hamasaki was doing some
work in the document and then I would

been confirmations of things that I
recalled or knew, but I don't think
that they brought to my attention
things that I didn't previously know.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And what types of confirmations
were there things that you relied upon in
approving this report?
MR. FEE: Same objection and
instruction.
THE WITNESS: Virtually
everything you see in the report, all
three of us were involved in it, and
all three of us were confirming and
denying things or evaluating things
along the way.
MR. BRIDGES: I think we have
to pause for a change of media, so why
don't we take a break.

THE VIDEOGRAPHER: On the
record at 12:32. This is the
beginning of media unit 2 in the
deposition of John Jarosz.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Mr. Jarosz, your report, as I
referred to earlier, cites a number of
conversations with employees of the
plaintiffs. For what purpose did you have
conversations with the plaintiffs' employees?
A. To learn more about the
organization and their view as to the impact
of continued copyright protection -continued copyright infringement and
trademark infringement.
Q. What view did you learn from
them?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Well, I solicited

you interview?
A. I don't think I interviewed any
members of the public either.
Q. What steps did you do to
ascertain the views of the members of the
organizations, other than the employees?
A. I read the materials that were
produced here. I read the deposition
testimony of the various individuals. I read
the articles published by Ms. Bremer. And I
read the other academic literature and
practical literature that I had.
Q. Which of those sources stated
the views of the non-employee members of the
various organizations?
A. I don't know that views of -that their views were explicitly addressed in
my report or represented. I understood what
the impacts of the lack of honoring the
copyrights and trademarks would have, but I
don't know that I saw non-employee member
views explicitly summarized.
Q. So what steps did you do to
ascertain the views of the members of the
organizations --

and learned many facts about the
organizations. I also learned that
each one of them viewed continued
copyright infringement and trademark
infringement as quite detrimental to
their organizations, detrimental to
the members, detrimental to the
public.
They viewed continued IP
infringement as potentially
devastating to their organizations.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. These were their views?
A. Yes. I'm just paraphrasing, of
course.
Q. What members did you interview?
A. None, other than the employees.
I don't know if you call those "members" or
not. But the volunteer membership, I didn't
go to.

microphone to your lapel? Thank you.

the employees, and they interact with
the members on a very regular basis,
so they gave me some sense of what the
views of the members were.
It also could be that some of
the perspectives of the members are
reflected in some of the documents I
identified in tab 2.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Well, I'm just trying to find
out where -- it sounds as though -- strike
that.
It sounds as though a minute
ago you said you couldn't recall anything
specifically calling out views of
non-employee members, correct?
A. Correct. I think that's right.
Q. What did you do to verify the
statements that employees of the plaintiffs
made about the views of the non-employee

members of their organizations?
A. I did what I normally do in an
assignment like this and look at the produced
materials.
Q. And the produced materials did
not call out specifically any views of
non-employee members of the plaintiff
organizations, correct?
A. I don't recall any specific
views being summarized. My memory may not be
perfect on that, though.
Q. What research, if any, did you
do among members of the public about whether
lack of copyright protection for the
plaintiffs' standards would be detrimental to
the -- to the public?
A. The information that I reviewed
is in tab 2. I didn't have material beyond
what is identified in tab 2.
Q. So what in tab 2 reflects your
steps to ascertain the views of members of
the public?

States other than law review articles by

A. As I sit here right now, I'm
not aware of any documents that discuss the
deliberations, but my memory is not perfect.
Q. Do you know if there was a
consensus in any relevant committee of the
Administrative Conference of the United
States regarding the conclusions that
Ms. Bremer states in her law review articles?
A. I don't.
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.

that. I think some of the federal
government's circulars that I
identify, in part, reflect the
reviews, in particular the NTTAA of
1995 and OMB Circular A-119. I think
they, in part, reflect public views.
There are probably other things.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you review OMB Circular
A-119 personally?
A. Yes. As I recall, I did.
Q. Did you review any materials
pertaining to the discussions or
deliberations of the Administrative
Conference of the United States in connection
with your research or analysis?
A. What particular materials or
meetings are you referring to?
Q. Any.
A. I don't recall, but it's
possible.

view of the Administrative Conference of the
United States -MR. FEE: Objection to form.

Q. -- or of any of its committees?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I'm not aware
that they officially reflect that. I
believe she gathered information, and
they may, in fact, represent the views
of some or all members, but I don't
think that's -- that either article is
an official representation -BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Are you -A. -- of that body.
Q. Are you aware of the fact that
her articles -- her law review articles
specifically disclaim her articles as the

expect that that would be in the first
footnote of one or both articles.
Q. What did you do to examine the
alleged facts that the representatives of
plaintiffs stated to you in their
conversations with you?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.

THE WITNESS: I'm sorry. I
looked at the document production and
the other materials shown in tab 2.

production that the plaintiffs' counsel
furnished you?

Q. And did you do anything -what, if anything, did you do to test the
validity of the factual assertions that the
plaintiffs made to you in your conversations
with their employees?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
Asked and answered.
THE WITNESS: Well, we looked
at materials. If we found things that
conflicted with what we learned, that
would prompt us to investigate
further. But I don't recall seeing
any documentary evidence that
conflicted with facts that were
provided by plaintiff personnel, but I
might be wrong.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you investigate
independently whether documents existed that
contradicted plaintiffs' statements of facts?
A. Not with that in mind. We
looked at the documents and were mindful of

the materials that plaintiffs' counsel
furnished you.
A. I don't know with absolute
certainty, but let me give you my best guess.
I believe all the depositions that are shown
on page 1. I believe the Bates ranges at the
very top of the page were provided by
counsel.
The deposition transcripts and
exhibits were provided by counsel. I believe
the financial statements and plans were
provided by counsel. I believe the legal
documents were provided by counsel. I
believe the miscellaneous items were provided
by counsel.
I don't know about the cases
and laws. I just don't remember if we
separately gathered those or were provided
those.
The analyst reports, articles,
books, and presentations, I think we gathered
all of those, with the possible exception of
the two Bremer articles. I don't recall if
counsel provided that or we obtained those
separately.

whether there were conflicts within documents
or conflicts between documents and other
information, but I don't recall that we saw
anything that gave us substantial pause.
There were probably some things
where there were some uncertainties whether
there was a conflict or not and some where
there were insignificant conflicts, but I
think mostly the information we saw did not
conflict with the information we learned from
plaintiff personnel.
Q. Did you investigate
independently whether other documents, apart
from the documents plaintiffs furnished you,
existed that contradicted plaintiffs'
statements of facts -MR. FEE: Objection to form.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. -- in conversations with you?
A. Yes, in the sense that we
gathered some information that we did not
receive from plaintiffs' counsel, but all of
that is identified in tab 2.
Q. Which part of tab 2?
A. Well, as I said, I think the

documents from NFPA, no Bates range documents
from NFPA?
MR. REHN: Object to form -THE WITNESS: I don't know why
we did not receive Bates documents -THE REPORTER: Wait.
MR. REHN: Sorry. Object to
the form. Lacks foundation.
THE WITNESS: I don't know for
sure that we didn't receive
Bates-stamped documents, but I believe
some of the documents we received were
NFPA documents.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Do you recall seeing any NFPA
documents that -- in which NFPA personnel
stated that they could not show any harm from
the defendant's activities?

said that?

Resource?
A. I think I heard that there was
a German -- or a suit in Germany, but I'm not
sure that I learned much more than that. I
don't recall what status that suit -- what
the status of that suit is.
Q. Do you recall anyone disclosing
to you litigation involving NFPA in the
United States that pertained to standards and
copyright?
A. It's possible, but I don't
recall any, sitting here right now.
Q. Do you recall inquiring about
public statements of fact that NFPA has made
regarding copyright and standards in
litigation other than this litigation in the
United States?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.

it's possible.
Are you talking about
historical -- historically no harm, or are
you talking about prospectively?
Q. Either one. Did you -- do you
recall seeing any internal NFPA documents
that call into question where NF -- whether
NFPA has suffered any harm from the
defendant's activities?
A. I don't recall documents on it.
There may have been some deposition testimony
about past activities, but I don't know if it
was activities prior to Public Resource
actions here or after.
Q. Do you recall learning about
any litigation that NFPA had engaged in
pertaining to standards and copyright?
A. I think I heard that there's
some overseas litigation involving Public
Resource. Whether that involves NFPA, I
don't know.

the Veeck case.
Q. What do you know about that
opinion?
MR. FEE: Objection.
I would instruct you not to
disclose anything you know about that
opinion that was a result of
communications with counsel and that
did not form the basis of any of the
opinions in your report or any of the
assumptions that you relied upon in
reaching your conclusions.
THE WITNESS: I did talk with
counsel about that case, and that case
didn't form any basis for any of my
observations or conclusions here.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Why did the Veeck case not form
any basis for any of your observations or
conclusions here?
A. I don't know how to answer that
question. I -- it didn't present any facts
that were specific to this case, as far as I
recall.

of that case?
A. I recall generally it had to do
with activities of certain municipalities
using what was copyrighted or what was
claimed to be copyrighted material by a group
that developed materials explicitly to be put
into the law.
Q. Do you recall what the decision
was in the opinion you seem to be familiar
with?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I think,
generally, that copyright protection
was not available. I'm sure there was
more to it, but that's my general
opinion, my general memory.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And copyright protection was
not available for what?
A. Well, the asserted copyrights
in that matter.
Q. And do you recall what the
matter was that was at issue in Veeck?

certain municipalities were using certain

studies? Are you talking about
something akin to a business school
case study? I don't know what you
mean by that term.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. I'm just -- what opportunities
do you -- have you identified for finding
comparable circumstances where a court has
made a ruling that building codes are not
subject to copyright in order to study what
the consequences were -MR. FEE: Objection.

Q. -- what the economic
consequences were of the Court's decision?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.

standards and using the materials from
certain standards and perhaps disseminating

Q. Do you recall what kind of
standards they were?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: They may
generally have had to deal with
building codes, but I could be wrong
on that.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What analysis did you do of
harms suffered by the code developers of
those building codes as a consequence of the
Veeck decision?
A. I didn't do any analysis
associated with the facts of that case.
Q. Why not?
A. Because those facts are
different than the facts here, including what
the organization was.
Q. Are the facts -- what -- what
case studies are you familiar of -- are you
familiar with regarding measurements of harms
suffered by entities that develop codes when

case.

point -- strike that.
Why did you read the court
case?
A. Because I understand that
Public Resource believes it's of some
significance to this case.
Q. Do you believe that that -- do
you have an understanding as to whether the
Veeck case is of any significance to this
case?
MR. FEE: Objection. Calls for
a legal conclusion.

I'm not a legal expert.

ascertain what economic harms flowed from the
Court's decision in the Veeck case?

that of that particular case.

Q. What steps did you take to
ascertain what public harms flowed from the
Court's decision in the Veeck case?
A. Other than reading the case,
the opinion in the case, I didn't do anything
beyond that to understand the implications of
that holding.
Q. You didn't do any investigation
as to the economic consequences to any
entity, industry, or person as a consequence
of the decision in the Veeck case, correct?

correct, yes.

over development of what became standard 90.1
from any other group or entity?
A. No, I do not.
Q. Have you ever quantified the
value of the contributions made by the
volunteers of the various organizations to
the standards at issue in this case?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Not other than
having some sense of hours or a
limited sense of dollars, but not
beyond that, no.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Can you put a rough dollar
value on the time and expenses of the
volunteers with respect to any of the
standards in this case?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.

bit of a study. I have not done that.

development process. I think there are a
variety of processes pursued by a number of
SSOs or SDOs. I'm sure that there have been
changes on the margin. There may have been
larger changes. I just don't know. I have
not studied the trend in the standard
development process over time.
Q. What changes are you aware of
in the standards development process of NFPA
over the past 100 years?
A. I don't know. I've not studied
that topic.
Q. What changes are you aware of
in the standards development process of the
ASHRAE 90.1 standard?
A. I don't know. I've not studied
that.
Q. How did ASHRAE come to develop
the 90.1 standard?
A. I think, generally, a need was
identified and a group of constituents
convened to derive a standard, but I don't
know the specifics beyond that.
Q. Do you know who identified the
need?

Q. What -- what would be required?
A. To understand basically the
out-of-pocket expenses incurred and the
opportunity costs incurred. So among other
things, one would want to look at time
records, have an understanding of
compensation, have an understanding of the
activities of those individuals. Those
are -- would be among the inputs.
Q. What changes are you aware of
in the distribution of standards in the past
100 years by the plaintiffs?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I haven't
investigated that particular issue,
but I understand that some of the
standards today are distributed
through the Internet that certainly
didn't exist 100 years ago.
Some of the standards are
distributed for free with limitations.
I don't know if that was true 100
years ago, but it might have been.
I would expect some of the
copying and dissemination capabilities

Q. What changes are you aware of

sales, for instance, in tabs 3, 4, and

goes back a few years, however.

that the plaintiffs offer to persons wishing

A. No, I don't think so.
Q. Do you know what effect, if
any, the presence of those free materials on
the plaintiffs' Web sites has had on the

Q. And those source documents
would be within the Bates ranges identified
in tab 2 of your report?
A. Within the Bates ranges or
identified elsewhere in tab 2. For instance,
the AS team -- ASTM audited -- audited
consolidated financial statements, I think,
may not all be Bates-stamped. I could be
wrong on that. But I would look in that set
of financial documents.
Q. What do you know about what you
said -- strike that.
You said earlier that some
standards are distributed for free with some
limitations; is that correct?
A. Yes, that's my understanding.
Q. What do you know about that?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: I've written
about that in my report. I believe
that each one of the plaintiffs has
provided what is sometimes called a
"reading room" so that people can look
at those standards but are not given

there's a direct or indirect effect.
There might be, but I haven't seen
evidence of that.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. My question was, have you
investigated that?
MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: Perhaps you could
read back my answer.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. I've heard the answer. It was
not responsive to my question. The -- you
said you did not know what effect, if any,
the presence of those free materials on the
plaintiffs' Web sites has had on the
plaintiffs' revenues.
And my question is, have you
investigated that?
MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: No, I've not
undertaken a separate investigation.
I've been alert to that topic, but I
haven't assigned myself that
investigation.

No.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you study the practices of
any standards development organizations,
other than the plaintiffs, for purposes of
your work in this case?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: Not that I
recall. I saw reference to other SDOs
in the Bremer articles, for instance,
but I didn't undertake a separate
investigation of the practices of any
other SDOs for purposes of my
assignment here.

policies of other SDOs with reference to

SDOs, but the standard setting organizations
that are the candidates are the ones that I
identified earlier today.
Q. Which SDOs do you recall
treating copyright protection of their
standards as very important?
A. I just don't recall right now.
I -- I have some vague recollection that
copyright considerations are addressed by
ETSI, but I could be wrong on that.
Q. What do you know about policies
or practices of the Blu-ray organization with
respect to copyright protection?
A. I assume you're talking about
the Blu-ray Association? I may have known
when I was involved in that matter. I do not
remember, sitting here now.
Q. Do you recall that your report
actually refers to the Blu-ray Association?
A. I think I refer to Blu-ray
standards. I don't recall if I refer to the
Blu-ray Association, but perhaps you could
refresh my memory.

the bottom of page 62. "While certain SDOs

Q. What awareness do you have of
the practices or policies of other SDOs

in the past?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I can only recall
most generally that they view
intellectual property protection as
being very important, but I can't be
any more specific than that.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Which SDOs you -- do you recall
treating intellectual property protection as
very important?
A. Well, again, I've -- I've dealt
with standards setting organizations. I
don't know if any of those are technically

(e.g., the Blu-ray disc association) provide
unrestricted access to their standard
publications for free, the Plaintiffs here do
not."
Do you recall that?
A. Now I do. Thank you for
refreshing my memory.
Q. What economic effects are you
aware of the fact that the Blu-ray Disc
Association provides unrestricted access to
its standard publications for free?
A. I have not investigated that
issue, so I don't know.
Q. What other SDOs have you
identified that provide unrestricted access
to their standards for free?
A. I don't think I've identified
any others in my report.
Q. Did you look for any others?
A. Not that I recall.
Q. Why not?
A. I don't know how to answer
that. I was aware of the Blu-ray Disc
Association's policy in this regard, so I
wrote about it here.

THE WITNESS: Economists have a

issues that some courts have found to
be useful.

Q. No, I'd like for you to give me
a straight answer, because if you're just
going to refer to the report, the report will
speak for itself, and I don't need you to
read it to me.
I'd like for you to tell me
what you understand, sitting here, to have
been your assignment in this case.
MR. FEE: Objection.
You can answer the question
however you deem appropriate.
THE WITNESS: I've aptly laid
it out in my report, so I defer to the
words in my report.
But I've, in essence, looked at
the topic of the impact of copyright
and trademark infringement here, and
asked myself the question whether a
permanent injunction would be
appropriate from an economic

counsel that did not form the basis
for any of your opinions or
conclusions and did not provide any
assumptions that were the basis for
your opinions or conclusions, you
should not answer that portion of the
question.
THE WITNESS: I understand
that, generally, economists like me
are quite helpful in determining
questions of harm, particularly harm
as it relates to infringement of IP
rights.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. How do you distinguish between
harms that are caused by an infringement by
the defendant versus harms that might be
caused by a court decision that plaintiffs
lack copyrights?

use, is it your understanding that none of

non-infringement?

question would require you to disclose

that don't form the basis for any of
your opinions or conclusions and don't
provide any assumptions that you
relied upon, you shouldn't disclose

To the extent that your

communications with counsel, you
shouldn't disclose them, unless they
formed the basis for your opinions or
conclusions or provided assumptions
that you relied upon in reaching your
conclusions.

record at 2:12.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Good afternoon, Mr. Jarosz.
A. Good afternoon.
Q. Could you outline for me,
please, what steps you took in your
engagement in this case? What are the
different activities you engaged in?
A. Generally, I had a discussion
with counsel about the matter. Then we
examined documents that would -- were
provided to us to give us background. We
then proceeded to gather our own information
from third-party sources, primarily through
Internet searches.
We obtained information that
had been produced as part of discovery. We
had conversations with people at the various
plaintiff organizations.
We outlined the report and
summarized some of the information that you
see in the tabs. We had discussions with

counsel. And then we finalized the report,
submitting it to counsel on June 5th, 2015.
Q. Do you know how many standards
of each plaintiff are at issue in this case?
A. How many -- I'm sorry -standards are at issue?
Q. Yes.
A. I have that number written
down. It's in the hundreds, and I forget, as
I sit here right now, precisely the number.
I will look it up. And I was giving you an
answer that was a cumulation across the three
plaintiffs.
I am not seeing that number
right now. I'll keep looking.
Q. Do you know what -A. You may be able to point me
quicker than I recall where it was.
Q. Do you -- do you know what
proportion of plaintiffs -- of each
plaintiffs' standards is at issue in this
case?
A. Are you asking me the ratio of
the standards at issue versus the total
standards developed by the organizations?

Q. Have you analyzed any
differences in sales trends between those of
plaintiffs' standards that have been
incorporated into law and those of
plaintiffs' standards that have not been
incorporated into law?
A. I don't think so. I don't
think I have those data, and I'm not sure
that each plaintiff knows precisely how many
have been incorporated into law.
Q. Did you ask for any data
regarding the distinction between standards
incorporated by reference and standards not
incorporated by reference in the law?
A. I don't -MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I'm sorry. I
don't recall.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. You made observations about
sales trends earlier in your deposition. I
think you said that there's been a reduction
in sales of certain of plaintiffs' standards;
is that correct?
A. I'm not quite sure what the

A. I think it's less than a
majority for each organization. I'm fairly
certain of that with regard to ASTM. I think
that's true with regard to NFPA. I think
it's true with regard to ASHRAE.
Q. Do you have any better
information than less than a majority -A. Well, I -Q. -- for each of them?
A. The precise numbers are in the
report. Let's see here. One can figure that
out. You may remember where I summarized the
number of standards. I just don't remember.
It's easy to determine because the data are
all here.
Q. Have you analyzed differences
in sales trends between standards that are at
issue in this case and plaintiffs' other
standards?
A. No, I don't think I have those
data at my disposal.
Q. Did you ever ask for those
data?
A. I don't recall.

activity, as I had at my disposal.
Q. Well, I'm trying to find out
what changes you have studied in plaintiffs'
economics that you attribute to defendant's
activities.
A. I'm not quite sure what your
question is.
Q. Well, I'm trying to find out
what information you have studied to
determine what changes in the finances of
each of the plaintiffs have occurred as a
consequence of the defendant's activities.
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I'm still not
sure that I'm hearing a question. But
to the extent that I had information
on changes in activity level, I
summarized that in paragraph 133.

information did you study to determine any
changes in finances of each of the

THE WITNESS: It's reflected in
paragraph 133 and in the tabs,

tabs are not at the granular level
that I think are of interest to you.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What do you mean by the
"granular level" that would be of interest to
me?
A. I don't think it breaks out
publications by standard, for instance.
Q. Does it break out publications
by whether a standard has been incorporated
by reference or not?
A. I don't think so.
Q. Does it break out by whether a
standard has been publicly made available by
defendant or not?
A. I don't think so. Not in
tabs 3, 4, and 5.

of certain of the standards. I've
presented that.
I don't have direct evidence of
the precise impact historically of
defendant's activities on plaintiffs'
financials.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What evidence of any kind do
you have of any kind of impact historically
of the defendant's activities on plaintiffs'
financials?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: That which is
reported in paragraph 133, that of
which is contained in deposition
testimony, and that of which I
summarized in other parts of the
report.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So when you're referring to
deposition testimony, you're referring to the
citations to the footnotes in paragraph 133?
A. No, I don't think it's just
limited to that. I think there's some other
deposition transcripts that talk about the

paragraph 133?

THE WITNESS: One can and
should look at all evidence available,
including circumstantial evidence. I
don't have direct information about
the precise impact of defendant's
activities, but I have important
information that bears on that issue,
including information that's in
deposition transcripts.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So my question is, how do
you -- do you -- strike that.
Are your conclusion -- are you
making conclusions in paragraph 133 about the
cause of changes in sales of the plaintiffs'
products?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Not definitively.
I have observations about the
magnitude and trend of the downloads
of -- through defendant's sites. I
have some information on the downloads

impact or potential impact of defendant's
activities on each one of the plaintiffs.
Q. Did you make any independent
assessment of causation of any financial
effects on plaintiffs by the defendant's
activities?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
Calls for a legal conclusion.
THE WITNESS: What do you mean
by the term of "independent assessment
of causation"?
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. You, as an expert, not relying
just on what other people have said or
speculated or thought.
MR. FEE: Same objections.
Plus compound.
THE WITNESS: We experts rely
on other information to draw the
conclusions that we do, and then we
bring our training to it. So our
observations shouldn't be in a vacuum.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. But they should be objective,
correct?

lawsuit alone, but doing independent analysis

THE WITNESS: I think one can
and should evaluate and consider the
views of the parties, but not limited
investigation to that.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. So what independent analysis
and research did you do other than reviewing
the views and statements of the parties in
this case?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: I reviewed and
summarized the data, as you see in
133, that I had at my disposal. I
reviewed writings about the impacts.
And I took important
information from the fact that the
plaintiffs have brought this lawsuit.
The plaintiffs don't want this
activity to continue. That is

Q. And the data that you
identified in the footnotes in
paragraph 134 -- sorry -- 133?
A. Yes, I considered that
information.
Q. Do you know in what year the
defendant posted the 2008 version of the
National Electrical Code on its Web site?
A. I don't know with absolute
certainty. I do know a number of the alleged
activities occurred in late 2012. I don't
know if it's specific to that code or not.
Q. Does it matter to your analysis
exactly when the defendant posted the 2008
National Electrical Code on its Web site or
to Internet Archive?
A. I would -MR. FEE: Objection to form.

revealed preference information that's

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Tell me about what you mean by
repealed -- sorry. Strike that.
Tell me what you mean by
"revealed preference."
A. What people do often provides
information on what their preferences are.
Q. And so the fact that plaintiffs
brought this lawsuit has revealed to you that
they prefer to bring the lawsuit, correct?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
THE WITNESS: Given the cost,
they prefer to bring the lawsuit
rather than not bring it, yes.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What else -- strike that.
What are the data you're
referring to in page -- strike that.
What are the data you're
referring to in paragraph 133 that you took

THE WITNESS: I would consider

don't have any reason to think that it
would change any of the conclusions
that I drew.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. The timing of when the
defendant posted certain matters wouldn't
change your conclusions?
A. Not based on what I know right
now. My understanding is that much of the
activity occurred in 2012, the later half of
2012, and I still have the whole body of
evidence that I have considered. So I'm not
sure if the precise timing would change, but
I certainly would consider that.
Q. Do you know in what year
Public.Resource.Org posted the 2011 version
of the National Electrical Code?
A. Same answer to the question
that you had with regard to the 2008 code.
Q. Can you look at the data in
your -- the tables attached to your report
and see if that helps refresh your memory as
to when the defendant posted NEC 2008 and

appropriateness of a permanent injunction an
economic question?
A. I think, in part, economic
considerations can be and often are taken
into account in answering that question.
Q. Is it an economic question?
MR. FEE: Objection.

It's your testimony that the
propriety of a permanent injunction is, in
part, an economic question?

plaintiffs?
A. Well, I would be curious -MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: -- curious about
that information, but I don't have any
reason to think it would change the
conclusions that I drew, and that is
that a permanent injunction is
appropriate here.

Q. Is it your job to determine
whether a permanent injunction is
appropriate? Is that what you were hired to
do?
A. No.
MR. FEE: Objection. Calls for

you rely upon to conclude that, as an
economic matter, a preliminary -- strike
that.
What economic theories did you
rely upon to conclude that, as an economic
matter, a permanent injunction is appropriate
in this case?

Q. And are there any particular

a first-year college student would have
gotten in a first-year economics course that
you have brought to bear by applying
particular economic theories to this case?
A. I think my training makes me
who I am and has helped me in assignments
like this. I have beyond a first-year-incollege understanding of basic economics, but
they're very important concepts that are
taught and learned in first-year economics.
Q. Well, I want to know if there
are any economic concepts beyond first-year
economics that you have brought to bear in
rendering your conclusions in this case.

are, yes.

THE WITNESS: We learn about

behavior. We talk -- we learn about
manufacturer and supplier actions. We
learn about game theory. We learn
about econometrics. We learn more
broadly about quantitative methods.
We learn about a variety of aspects of
industrial organization. There are
many things that we learn beyond the
first year of economics training.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. No, I'm asking what you brought
to bear in your analysis in this case.
A. All those.
Q. Okay. What aspect of price
theory did you bring to bear in this case?
A. I don't know how to answer that
question besides I understand basic price
theory and have researched it much and
applied that to the facts here.
Q. What was the specific
application of price theory that you brought
to bear in this case?

what you mean by "economic concepts." We get
trained in things like quantitative methods
and intermediate microeconomics, in price
theory, in econometrics, in consumer
behavior. All those things are beyond the
first year. I don't know if you're calling
those economic theories. Your -- your
questioning confuses me.
Q. Well, you referred to the
important concepts in response to my question
to you about particular aspects of training
that you have beyond what a first-year
college student would have gotten in a
first-year economics course that you brought
to bear by applying economic theories to this
case, and your answer refers to very
important concepts that are taught and
learned.
And so I'm asking you, what
very important economic concepts have you
brought to bear in your analysis of this
case?

consumer behavior did you bring to bear in
this case?
A. I can't be any more specific
than saying that.
Q. What aspects of your training
about game theory have you brought to bear in
your work on this case?
A. I can't be any more specific

Q. What aspects of econometrics in
your training have you brought to bear on
this case?
A. I can't be any more specific
than that.
Q. What inform -- what aspects of
training in qualitative methods have you
brought to bear on this case?
A. I didn't say "qualitative
methods," and so it may have been mis-keyed
in. I said "quantitative methods."
Q. All right. What aspects of
quantitative methods of your training did you
bring to bear on this case?

occurred, so I don't know why one would need
to back into it.

to use sales trends as a way of identifying

by the defendant?

volume of the standards that the defendant
has posted?

the story as to the harm here?

Q. What -- what can you say by
looking at Exhibit 4 about the historical
impact of the posting of the defendant -- of
the plaintiffs' standards by the defendant?
A. I don't know that I can say
much, because I believe the postings largely
occurred in late 2012, and I only have one
period after that.

defendant's postings were well before 2012,

Q. Do you know how -- strike that.
Do you know how much revenue
each plaintiff derives from the standards at
issue in this case?
A. I don't think I know that
precise number.
Q. Did you -- did you ever know
that number?
A. I don't think so.
Q. Did you ever know how much
revenue each plaintiff derives from standards
that have been incorporated into law?
A. As opposed to those that have
not been incorporated? Is that -Q. Well, I'm -- I'm asking about

plaintiff derives from those standards.
A. I don't -MR. FEE: Objection. Form.
THE WITNESS: -- think I know
that number, and I'm not sure the
plaintiffs know that number.

Q. Are you aware of any difference
in profitability to plaintiffs between those
standards that have been incorporated into
law and those standards that have not been

something just north of 50 percent for
ASHRAE.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What do you mean by "if you add
in memberships"?
A. I'm not -- I'm not quite sure
what you're asking me to define.
Q. I'm asking you to explain the
phrase that you just used, "if you add in
memberships." What did that mean?
A. I talked about that in my
report. Membership fees are a fairly good
recollect -- a fairly good reflection of
amount that would have been paid for
publications. In other words, publication
fees -- it -- let me start this over again.
It makes about as much sense to
become a member of ASHRAE as it is to buy
some of the individual publications. As a
result, many people choose to become members
rather than just buying the publication, as I
understand it.
Q. How did you learn that?
A. Having knowledge of the -- of
the price difference and through discussions

Q. For each plaintiff, what do you
17
understand to be the percentage of gross
18
revenue from the sale of standards?

MR. FEE: Objection to form.
20
THE WITNESS: I -- I've
21
reported that in my report. My memory
22
is that it's something on the order of
23
66 percent for ASTM and for NFPA. And 24
if you add in memberships, it's
25
Page 184
with people at ASHRAE.
Q. How did you learn about the
price difference?
A. I don't recall how I learned
it, but I report it in my report based on
certain documents I've seen. Perhaps I
learned it from their Web site.
Q. Did you do any surveys of
ASHRAE members to validate that assumption?
A. I'm sorry. Validate what
assumption?
Q. About purchase of a membership
instead of buying the publication.
A. I'm not sure that there's an
assumption in there. My understanding is
that ASHRAE people are of the belief that
many people buy membership rather than
individual publications.
Q. And in your work, did you
assume that?
A. I didn't assume that. I worked
on that -- under that understanding.
Q. Oh, it's an understanding, but
not an assumption?
A. Yes.

me on this.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. I'm not arguing.
A. I don't understand.
Q. I'm just trying to understand
your testimony. That's all. So I'm asking
some follow-up questions.
You stated earlier some
percentages of revenue from the sale of
standards. Did you mean to be identifying
what you thought were the percentages of
revenue from the sale of standards or from

are to copyrighted publications, correct?
A. With the exception of number 3,
which refers to copyrighted publications and
memberships.
Q. Okay. So my question wasn't
about copyrighted publications. My question
is, what percentage do you understand of
plaintiffs' revenues comes from the sale of
standards at issue in this case?
A. Thank you for that reminder of
what the question is.
I don't think I know that
precise percentage.
Q. What percentage of plaintiffs'
revenues, to your knowledge, comes from the
sale of standards incorporated into law?
A. I don't know that number.
Q. What percentage of plaintiffs'
revenues, to your understanding, comes from
the sale of all standards?
A. I'm sorry. I thought you asked
that question. I thought the immediate one
before that was standards.
Q. No. It was standards at issue
in this case. Then --

the sale of all publications?
A. Let me -- let me double-check
that.
Well, in the case of ASTM, for
instance, I believe it's copyrighted
publications.
Q. What page are you referring to
in your report?
A. Right now I'm looking at
page 36, but I think I talk about it at other
areas.
Q. So page 36, you're talking
about which paragraph?
A. Well, right now I was -Q. 83?
A. -- I was looking at 83, but I'm
turning back to, for more reliable
information, to paragraph 15, for instance,
which says in 2014, 67.1 percent of the
revenue was generated by the sale of
copyrighted publications. For NFPA, that
information is shown in paragraph 18. And
for ASHRAE, that information is shown in
paragraph 22.

Q. What percentage of
plaintiffs' -- strike that.
What dollar value do you
associate with the investments that each
plaintiff has made in the development of the
standards at issue in this case?
A. I don't think I attributed a
dollar amount to that precise activity,
because I don't know that amount.

operating expenses do you associate with the
plaintiffs' development of the standards at
issue in this case?

Q. In paragraph 49, you state that

been in a produced document. It may have
been in conversations. I just don't recall.

information independently?

review that article?

Q. Did you independently verify
the information in it?

reason to question any of the facts there.

the process of looking through the
documents that we had, I kept an open
eye toward learning things that
conflicted with those oral
conversations.

are -- what were the documents that you're
saying you had?

than Ms. Bremer's law review articles, the
plaintiffs' counsel furnished to you,
correct?

documents, but they provided them as

Q. Did you ask them for any
documents that they had not provided?
A. I think we generally described
the kinds of information that we find useful
or typically find useful in matters like
this.
Q. After you received documents
from plaintiffs' counsel, did you ask them
for any more?
A. That -- that's possible. I
don't recall that.
Q. You don't recall. Did you -do you have any understanding as to the
dollar value of staff time and expenses that
the plaintiffs have incurred in promoting
incorporation of their standards into law?

Q. Did you verify how many
standards were incorporated by reference
according to that database?

Q. What do you mean by, "This
database reports nearly 13,000 instances of
incorporation by reference"?

me to define.

anything. I'm asking you to explain what you
meant by that clause, "This database
reports" -A. I'm sorry. I'm just -- I'm
going to be just rearranging words a little
bit. There were 13,000 times that there was
incorporation by reference of a standard.

Q. In paragraph 57 of your report,
you refer to "thousands of private-sector
standards." Was your sole support for the
statement in paragraph 57 the Bremer article
you cited in footnote 88?

provide support for that in subsequent
paragraphs in that section.
Q. And that includes in
paragraph 58?
A. Yes.
Q. And did you review the
Standards Incorporated by Reference Database
that you refer to in paragraph 58?

confused. I'm trying to understand what you
meant by that.
You mean separate instances?
You mean separate laws? What do you mean?
A. Yes. Separate instances slash
separate laws.
Q. What did you count as an
instance?
A. Mention in a particular law of
a standard.
Q. Did you or anybody working with
you attempt to determine the number of
standards that those 13,000 instances of
incorporation by reference referred to?
A. Not entirely. But if you read
on that -- in that same section, it talks
about the number of ASTM standards, the
numbers of -- the number of NFPA standards,
and the number of ASHRAE standards.
Q. Well, please tell me where it
refers to the number of standards.
A. It says, "Including more than
2,400 instances involving ASTM standards."
So you're right. It doesn't
have the number of standards. It just has

that database shows as having been
incorporated by reference?

One could perhaps look at what I cited to
answer that question, but I don't know right
now.

working for you ever did that work to make
that determination?

state level, privately-developed standards
are incorporated by reference as part of the

ASHRAE 90.1 as part of the commercial
building energy code."
Do you see that?
A. Yes, I do.
Q. And that also has footnote 95
associated with that as well, correct?
A. Yes, that's correct.
Q. How do you explain the fact
that that reference in footnote 95 shows that
those 44 states, in fact, adopted the
International Energy Conservation Code that
merely has a reference to an option to use
ASHRAE 90.1?

Things that government agencies
do.
Q. And you give a couple of
examples, but speaking broadly, what are
governmental functions that involve
incorporation by reference of privately
developed standards at the state level?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I can only answer
generally. Health and human services,
things that are related to that,
safety, driving rules and regulation.
Those are among the things that come
to mind.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What are the governmental
functions related to health and human
services that you have in mind?
A. I don't have any particular
ones in mind.
Q. What are the governmental
functions relating to safety that you have in
mind?
A. I don't have any particular
ones in mind.

time to go look at a Web site right now, so
I'm asking you based on what you know.
Do you have an explanation as

actually shows that 44 state -- the 44 states
adopted the International Energy Conservation
Code?
MR. FEE: Objection. Lack of

THE WITNESS: I don't know if
your factual representation is
accurate or not, and I don't recall
investigating that particular issue.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Have you made any effort to
determine what resources were expended,
incurred, or contributed by parties other
than ASHRAE in the development of standard
90.1?

change in membership sales by ASHRAE over the
past ten years?
A. I don't think I have data that
goes as far as ten years ago. I do have
information on ASHRAE membership revenue back
to 2012. That's summarized in tab 5.
Q. And that membership figure has
risen each year since 2012, correct?
A. Yes. Slightly each year, it
has risen.
Q. Do you draw any conclusions
with respect to this case from that trend?
A. I don't think so.
Q. Have you calculated the
effects -- the financial effect on the
plaintiffs of the incorporation into law of
their standards?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: No, I don't think
I've independently -- I don't think
I've separately done that.

the number of hours and other
indications of activity undertaken by
members.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. My question is, have you made
any effort to determine what resources were
expended, incurred, or contributed by parties
other than ASHRAE and ASHRAE members in the
development of standard 90.1?
MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: I didn't realize
that you had in your original question
"and other than ASHRAE members."

Q. I didn't. Now I -- now my
question does.
A. Beyond that, I don't recall
undertaking that investigation, meaning
beyond ASHRAE and its members.

MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: I'm aware that
the plaintiffs benefit greatly by
incorporation by reference, but I
don't know that I've seen a
quantitative study of that topic.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What do you understand about
the benefits that accrue to plaintiffs by
incorporation by reference?
A. Some of those are laid out in
my report on pages 19 through 26. I have a
particular section called "Benefits of
Incorporation" that starts at page 20.
Q. Well, I'm asking you, what
benefits accrue to the plaintiffs from
incorporation by reference?
A. Generally, it allows each one
to satisfy its mandate of providing services
to the entirety of the industry that it
focuses its attention on. And so it allows
for the collection and then dissemination of
standards that allow and achieve outcomes
that are good for the industry.

A. I haven't calculated that harm.

let me take that back. I just don't know how
to do it.
Q. Can you be certain that these
accesses or down -- and downloads referred to
in paragraph 133, in fact, resulted in
economic loss to ASTM?

in your report, correct?
A. Yes, I believe so.
Q. Do you recall how this article
came to your attention?
A. I do not.
Q. Is this an article that you
understand to have been published by
plaintiff ASHRAE in its journal?
A. Yes, that's my understanding.
Q. And this is an article you
relied upon with respect to the development
of standard 90, which became standard 90.1,
correct?
A. Yes.
Q. In paragraph 133 of your
report, you talk about a number of
downloads -- strike that -- you talk about a
number of documents accessed through Public
Resource's Web site. Do you see that?

documents that are -- that were accessed over

the downloading and why.

alternatives persons who were doing the
downloading may have had for obtaining the

information?
A. Not with certainty, because I
don't know who those persons were, but I
would expect one alternative would be to
obtain it properly, directly from ASTM.
Q. Would that have resulted in
more revenue to ASTM?
A. It may have. If they're
materials that were taken improperly that
would have been paid for, then that would
represent a loss of revenue to ASTM.
Q. Do you know whether any of the
persons who obtained this information from
defendant would have paid for the information
from ASTM?
A. No, not with certainty, because
I don't know the identity of the downloaders
or the reasons for their downloading.
Q. Moreover, those persons might
have accessed the standards from ASTM's
reading room for free and with no revenue to
ASTM, correct?
A. You mean in a but-for world?

alternatively they could have gone to the

Q. Do you have any evidence about
wide distribution of plaintiffs' standards as
a consequence of defendant's actions?
A. I do not.
Q. Have you reviewed any studies
that would allow you to establish any
connection between the number of accesses or
downloads that Public Resource made possible
and any financial harms to the plaintiffs?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I don't think
I've seen any study on that, no.

free reading room?
Q. Right.
A. That's a possibility, yes.
Q. Do you have an understanding as
to why persons would want to download a file
of a standard instead of viewing it at one of
the plaintiffs' reading rooms?
A. Not with absolute certainty,
but I would imagine downloading would allow
more flexibility in referring to the standard
and using it and sharing that information
with others, whereas reading it in -- through
an Internet site is somewhat less flexible,
provides less flexibility for the use of that
information.
Q. What did -- what do you
understand to be the difference in
flexibility between possession of a download
and access to a standard through a reading
room?
A. Well, I think that a download
typically has a document that's in hard-copy
form. Copies can made -- be made of that and
distributed. Reading things just online
doesn't allow for the wide distribution and

A. Okay. I'm there.
Q. I just want to make sure I
understand your language correctly at the
bottom of page 45 and the top of page 46.
Is it your opinion that the
copyright that the plaintiffs assert in their
standards drives sales of other publications
other than the standards themselves?
MR. FEE: Objection. Form.
Vague.
THE WITNESS: I think they're
important for driving sales of
publications that embody those
standards. I don't know that I've
drawn a conclusion that it drives the
sale of other products, but that makes
some sense.

A. Not this moment, no. I guess,
potentially, when I think some more about it,
training and seminars, for instance.
Q. Providers of training and
seminars?
A. Yes. So that's broader than
value-added publications, but there are
potentially alternative providers of training
and seminars.
Q. In paragraph 109, you say, "In
addition to direct sales of copyrighted
materials, the Plaintiffs' materials
associated with their privately-developed
standards provide a competitive advantage
with regard to the sale of downstream
ancillary/complementary services and
products."
Do you see that?
A. Yes. That's what I had in
mind.

have in mind in paragraph 109?

Q. Oh, I'm sorry. Thank you.
I'll restate the sentence.
"In particular, the Plaintiffs'
copyright protection on their
privately-developed standards provides a
competitive advantage with regard to the sale
of these value-added publications as the
copyright protection limits the ability of
others to sell those publications unless they
are willing to compensate the Plaintiffs for
such use."
Do you see that statement?
A. I do, yes.
Q. And the competitive advantage
you've identified there, whom do you
understand to be the competition?
A. Other potential providers of
these so-called value-added publications.
Q. And what -- when you say
"value-added publications," please give me
more examples of what types of things fall
into that category, as you use the term.
A. Examples would be handbooks
that provide commentary on the standards.

right now -- sitting here right now, but I
think there are other providers of these
downstream services and products.
Q. And please give me examples of
what you're calling "downstream services and
products."
A. Again, seminars and training,
for instance.
Q. Anything else?
A. That's what comes to mind right
now.
Q. Turning to paragraph 110, you
state, "I understand that the ability to
control these downstream products and
services is particularly important to the
Plaintiffs here because the barriers to entry
in the marketplace for downstream products,
such as training and user manuals, are
relatively low. For example, according to
Mr. Comstock of ASHRAE, it is relatively easy
for unauthorized instructors to read a
standard and become (or think that they have
become) qualified to provide training or

Do you see that?

did you mean by "unauthorized instructors"?
A. People that have provided or
trying to provide services to the marketplace
that have not been explicitly approved by,
for instance, ASHRAE.
Q. What do you understand the -the nature of -- strike that.
You called them "instructors,"
correct?
A. Yes.
Q. Does that mean that you
envision that these persons are providing
some kind of instruction?
A. Yes.
Q. What instruction do you
understand -- what instruction did you have
in mind when you referred to "unauthorized
instructors"?
A. Generally, how best to
implement standards or provisions of certain
standards.

Q. You're just parroting what
Mr. Comstock said, or did you have an
independent view?
A. No, I heard what he said, and
it made sense to me.
Q. So you put it in your report?
A. Yes.
Q. What independent thought or
investigation did you do before you put that
in your report?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.

THE WITNESS: I can't point to
anything in particular.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Would a law-school course on
the law and regulation of building
construction provide instruction to law
students?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
Calls for speculation.
THE WITNESS: I guess it could.
I have a hard time imagining there
would be much demand for such a
course, but I'm in general agreement

who were instructing the public as to what
the standards require?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
Vague.
THE WITNESS: I didn't have
that in mind. I guess that's a
possibility.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. And would it be relatively easy
for unauthorized persons like that to read a
standard and think that they have become
qualified to provide training or guidance on
that standard?
MR. FEE: Objection. Vague.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Is that your understanding?
A. According to Mr. Comstock, I
believe that's correct.
Q. What do you believe?
A. I have no reason to doubt him.

BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Would it be possible to
envision that, in the course of such
teaching, a teacher may wish to analyze some
of plaintiffs' standards that have been
incorporated into law as law and as
regulation?
MR. FEE: Objection. Calls for
speculation. Vague. Form.
THE WITNESS: I guess that's
possible, but I would expect a law
professor would be talking about legal
implications, not the technical
aspects of a standard. I think they
might talk about the implication in a
business that's different from a
vendor business.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Well, what about the legal
implications of a code for contractors?
MR. FEE: Objection.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Is that -- is that fair ground
for a law professor to discuss with law

THE WITNESS: I guess, in -- in
concept. I'm having a hard time
imagining that that would, in fact,
occur at any law school, but it might.
I somehow doubt that the law professor
would be talking about the substance
of the standard as opposed to the
process or implications of a standard.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. You're not familiar with
courses in construction law?
A. I'm generally aware that there
are courses in construction law.
Q. Is it your view that, for a law
professor to provide a copy of, let's say,
the National Electrical Code to students for
their study would require permission of the
National Fire Protection Association?
MR. FEE: Objection. Calls for
a legal conclusion.

professor was an unauthorized instructor?
MR. FEE: Objection. Form.
Compound. Calls for a legal
conclusion. Vague.
THE WITNESS: That seems to be
a legal question. Just as an economic
proposition or just as a matter of the
English language, I would think that
they might be an unauthorized user but
not an improper user.
I don't think they've gotten
explicit authorization; therefore,
they're unauthorized. But I'm not
sure if it's illegal for them to refer
to a standard.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What about making copies of the
standard and furnishing it to students?
MR. FEE: Same objections.
THE WITNESS: Same answer.
BY MR. BRIDGES:

professor who does not get any permission
from NFPA or who does not purchase a copy of
the National Electrical Code would be an
unauthorized instructor -MR. FEE: Objection.

Q. -- by using that code with his
or her students as part of a law-school
course?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
Compound. Calls for a legal

THE WITNESS: Again, that seems
to be a legal question. I'm not sure
it would be authorized, but I'm also
not sure that it would be improper.

"unauthorized" in your report, so I'm asking
you, given the term "unauthorized" as used -you have used it in the report, would the

Q. In paragraphs 117 through 119,
I see no footnotes referencing sources of
your conclusions or referencing facts on

wouldn't assign a particular

refer to an "option available to Plaintiffs
to respond to the loss of protection for
incorporated standards."
Is it your belief that, if the
plaintiffs lose this case, they will shut
down their creation of new standards?
A. I think that's a possibility.

to that?

to the likelihood that you refer to with the
word "likely" in the first sentence of

that. And are you referring to my use
of the term "likely"?

A. Yes, I don't have a particular
quantification of that.

reasonable probability"?
A. Based on the information that I
have and the training and logic I bring to
it, I think there is a -- I say with some
confidence what I have said here.
Q. And when you say "likely," do
you mean more than 50 percent likely?
A. Not necessarily, no.
Q. Are you aware of other
standards development organizations active in

plaintiffs if plaintiffs chose to stop
standards development as a result of the loss
of this case?
MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: Not that I
recall, but I am of the understanding
that each SDO has a different charter,
so I don't know that any SDO has an
identical charter to that of any of
the three plaintiffs.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Are you aware that these
plaintiffs compete with other SDOs in the
creation of standards in particular fields?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.

THE WITNESS: What do you mean
by the term "compete with" in this
context?

say, "Simply put, freely-distributed,
unrestricted versions of Plaintiffs'
standards that are or could be incorporated
by reference can be expected to adversely
impact the market for Plaintiffs' standards
that are incorporated by reference and to
displace sales of these standards by the
Plaintiffs - which can be expected to have a
material adverse effect on Plaintiffs'
revenues."
Do you see that?
A. Yes.
Q. By "expected," do you mean more
than 50 percent likely?
A. Not necessarily. I don't have
a quantitative assessment of what I mean by
"expected."
Q. Do you mean more than 5 percent

"expected."
Q. More than 10 percent?
A. I don't know. I've not
quantified that number.

plaintiffs' revenues have you identified as
"material"?

don't know the amount.

litigation?
A. Generally, yes.
Q. And you're familiar with the
fact that auditors will often specify to
those they send the letters to what amounts
would be material for purposes of the audit
response?
A. Yes.
Q. So you understand the concept
of certain amounts being material to certain
companies or entities?
A. Yes, for certain purposes.
Q. So I'd like to know what amount

"theorized"; 145, "theory"; 146, "theory."
What facts do you have that
have disproved the theory in paragraph 139?
A. Perhaps most important is the
revealed preference information. If the
plaintiffs believed they were better off by
lack of copyright protection, they would have
pursued such a model.
They don't believe they're
better off. Moreover, they're expending
tremendous resources in bringing and pursuing
this litigation to halt the activity at
issue.
Q. What other facts, if any, do
you have that have disproved Mr. Malamud's
theory in paragraph 139?
A. That's what comes to mind right
now.
Q. What facts do you have or are
you aware of that have disproved
Mr. Malamud's theory as you refer to it in
paragraph 140?

with respect to -- strike that.
What facts do you have -strike that.
What facts are you aware of to
disprove -- to disprove Mr. Malamud's theory
that you refer to in paragraph 144?
A. Again, it's the same theory
that's being referenced, but there's
additional facts; and that is, the downstream
products and services aren't particularly
substantial to these plaintiffs and don't
appear to be enhanced by a lack of copyright
protection; that is, the plaintiffs have had
copyright protection and have said -- had
some downstream products and services. It's
hard to imagine that elimination of that
copyright protection will enhance that
business.
Q. It's hard to imagine, but are

information of any entities other than the
plaintiffs?
A. I looked at Public Resource
financial information.
Q. Apart from Public Resource and
the plaintiffs, did you look at the financial
information of any other entities in making
the assertions that you made in
paragraph 145?
A. Not in undertaking my
assignment here.
Q. Did you consider the business
models of any entities other than the
plaintiffs and the defendant in making the
statements criticizing Mr. Malamud's theory
in paragraph 145?
A. Nothing in particular comes to
mind. I understand that there are
front-loaded business models, but -- at DIN,
for instance, but I don't recall undertaking
an investigation of the downstream activities
that they have.
Q. Did you undertake any
investigation of downstream activities of

other US-based standards development
organizations that make their standards
freely available to the public?
A. Not that I recall.
Q. Would that have been relevant
to your analysis?
A. It wasn't necessary to do my
analysis, but I would be curious if I had
that information. If I -- if I had the
ability to examine that information, I would
be curious as to what that shows.
Q. In paragraph 146, you state,
"The loss of publications here will likely
reduce the Plaintiffs' sales of those
downstream products and services."
Do you see that?
MR. FEE: That's in 146?
THE WITNESS: Is that the last
sentence you were reading from?
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Yes.
A. Yeah.
Q. Paragraph 146.
A. Yes, I do see that.
Q. Did you mean the loss of

unable to quantify that with great
accuracy.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Have you considered any
comparable circumstances apart from this case
that would provide guidance for your
prediction in the last sentence of
paragraph 146?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
Vague.
THE WITNESS: I kept my mind
and eyes open to that, but I didn't
see information of a good comparator.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Did you research whether there
might be good comparators?
A. I -MR. FEE: Same objection.
THE WITNESS: I did in the
sense of reading through the
literature and information to see if I
could learn of something that would be
a good comparator, but I didn't learn
of such comparator.

copyright in the publications here?
A. Certainly the loss of
publications, but I believe it would probably
be better to put the loss of copyright in the
publications as more reflective of the
assignment that I undertook here.
Q. What probability do you assign
to the likelihood that you refer to in that
sentence?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
Lack of foundation.
THE WITNESS: I haven't
assigned a quantitative probability to
that.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Have you any estimate?
MR. FEE: Same objections.
THE WITNESS: I do not.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Have you any estimate as to the
magnitude of the likely reduction of
plaintiffs' sales of downstream products and
services?

Q. You looked only at the
information shown in tab 2 to Exhibit 1?
A. Yes, I think that's right.
Q. What economic effect are you
aware of to the Blu-ray Disc Association from
its providing unrestricted access to its
standard publications for free?
A. I don't know. I thought you
had asked that earlier. If not, I apologize.
Nonetheless, I don't recall knowing the
answer to that question or undertaking that
evaluation.
Q. Did Blu-ray Disc Association go
out of business?
A. I don't think it's out of
business, no.
Q. Has it suffered material harm,
to your knowledge, because of unrestricted
access to its standard publications for free?
A. I don't know.
Q. Do you believe that, on the
theory of revealed preference, Blu-ray Disc
Association has determined that unrestricted
access to its standard publications for free
is in its interest?

A. Yes. It's a different entity
than the SDOs here; but for its purposes, it
would appear that it's of the belief that
that's the optimal path to follow.
MR. BRIDGES: I think -- I
think we may pause things now and
reserve the remainder of our time.
Just a second. Oh, yes.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Do you believe that the
plaintiffs are harmed when the defendant
posts a standard that has been incorporated
by reference -- let me strike that.
Do you believe that plaintiffs
suffer harm from defendant posting a standard
that is not the latest version of the
standard?
MR. FEE: Objection. Form.
Compound.
THE WITNESS: Potentially, it
could cause confusion in the
marketplace as to what's the latest
standard, and there may be some
entities out there that are interested
in obtaining an earlier standard that

MR. FEE: Objection. Lack of

THE WITNESS: I'm not -- I'm
not sure that I understand the concept
of a standard being out of print, so
maybe you could help me with that.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Do you know the term "out of
print"?
A. Generally, I do, yes.
Q. What do you understand it to
mean?
A. That it's no longer provided in
print form.
Q. All right. So what harm do you
understand plaintiffs would suffer if
defendants posted a standard that is out of
print?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: Potentially, it
could be the harm similar to outdated
standards.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. In other words, confusion in
the marketplace?

would be obtaining it free rather than
through the legal routes established
by the plaintiffs.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. Have you done any studies to
determine what confusion may be likely in the
marketplace in that regard?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I have not done a
likelihood of confusion study, no.
BY MR. BRIDGES:
Q. What research have you done as
to whether -- strike that.
What information do you have
about what market there is for earlier
versions of standards when there is a newer
version in the market?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
THE WITNESS: I don't recall
undertaking specific research on that
topic.

Q. What harm do you understand
plaintiffs would suffer if defendants post a
standard that is out of print?

A. Potential confusion in the
marketplace and potentially providing -- yes,
that -- that would be one form of it.
Q. What other harms do -- would
you identify from the defendants posting a
standard that is out of print?
A. Nothing else comes to mind this
moment, but there could be other things
that -- that I'm not thinking of right now.
Q. What harms do you understand
plaintiffs would suffer if a condition of a
standard being incorporated into law is that
plaintiffs could not forbid other entities
from making that law available widely and
freely to the public?
MR. FEE: Objection to form.
Incomplete hypothetical. Compound.
Calls for speculation.
THE WITNESS: I don't know.
I've not undertaken that assignment.
I've not given that particular
question any thought.
It seems economically to be
quite similar to the actions that have
occurred here, but I don't know. I've

not thought about that pruticular

of the time for a later visit with
you, Mr. Jarosz.
Kevin, this is in reliance on
an exchange of conespondence between
Matt and you, I believe. If, for some
reason -- well, no. I think that's
all.
Anything else?
MR. FEE: Well, I don't have
any questions.
Do you guys have any questions?
