2022, to submit a revised Case Management Plan and
Scheduling Order reflecting the new discovery
deadlines.

Re: Spectrum Dynamics Medical Limited v. General Electric Company, et al.,
Case No.: 18-cv-11386 (VSB)
Dear Judge Broderick:
We write jointly with counsel for Plaintiff pursuant to Your Honor’s Order dated
November 5, 2020. (Doc. 129 at 2.) In that Order, the Court scheduled a “post-discovery
conference” for August 31, 2022 and directed the parties to submit a joint letter two weeks prior
to that date describing, inter alia, the status of the case and whether either party intends to file a
dispositive motion. (Id.) Given the current status of the case, including that discovery is ongoing
and the close of discovery has been extended to July 5, 2023 (see Doc. 510), the parties respectfully
request that the Court adjourn the presently scheduled post-discovery conference until a date after
the close of all discovery.
At the time the Court entered the Order, discovery was scheduled to close on August 12,
2022. (Doc. 129 at 2.) Since then, however, the close of discovery has been extended multiple
times, most recently to July 5, 2023. (See Doc. 510.) Additionally, the following motions and
matters remain pending:
x
x
x

Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss in Part Plaintiff’s Counter-Counterclaims (Doc. 107, 108);
Plaintiff’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction (Doc. 355, 356); and
Construction of the asserted claims of Defendant General Electric Company’s U.S. Patent
No. 9,295,439.

The parties anticipate that adjourning the August 31, 2022 conference to a date after the
close of all discovery and after the foregoing motions and matters are resolved will better serve
the Court’s original and stated purpose for that conference.
We appreciate your continued attention to this matter.
