MOTOROLA’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE SURREPLY REGARDING APPLE’S
MOTION TO COMPEL FURTHER RESPONSES TO INTERROGATORY NOS. 19-22
Plaintiff Motorola Mobility, Inc. ("Motorola") moves for leave to file a brief surreply to
the reply memorandum filed by Defendant Apple Inc. ("Apple") regarding Apple's Motion to
Compel Further Responses to Interrogatory Nos. 19-22.1
Good cause exists for granting this Motion because in its reply memorandum, Apple has
raised new arguments not presented in its opening brief. These new arguments concern the
1

Apple's Motion to Compel was filed under seal on March 26, 2012. Motorola's
response was filed on April 2. Apple's reply was filed under seal on April 5.

02426.51753/4695744.1

Case No. 1:10cv023580-Civ-RNS-TEB
Second Supplemental Responses that Motorola served in response to Apple's Interrogatory Nos.
19-22. For the first time in its reply, Apple argues that the Second Supplemental Responses are
inadequate, essentially making a new motion. Because Apple first addressed Motorola's Second
Supplemental Responses on reply, Motorola should be permitted to respond to these new
arguments.
In addition, Apple in its reply made at least one factual error—incorrectly stating that a
remote control is among the product accused of infringing Apple's patents—that Motorola's
proposed surreply corrects.
Motorola's proposed surreply is attached here as Exhibit 1.
CONCLUSION
For the above reasons, Motorola requests that the Court grant Motorola's Motion for
Leave to File Surreply Regarding Apple's Motion to Compel Further Responses to Interrogatory
Nos. 19-22.
CERTIFICATE OF CONSULTATION WITH OPPOSING COUNSEL
Pursuant to Local Rule 7.1(A)(3)(a), counsel for Motorola has conferred with counsel for
Apple regarding the issues raised in this Motion, and counsel for Apple has objected to the relief
requested herein.
