JURY TRIAL DEMANDED

PLAINTIFF FUNCTION MEDIA LLC'S RESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANT YAHOO! INC.'S MOTION FOR A PROTECTIVE ORDER Defendant Yahoo!, Inc.'s Motion for a Protective Order is improper and should be denied for the reasons set forth in Plaintiff Function Media LLC's Motion to Compel Discovery from Defendant Yahoo!, Inc. (filed April 13, 2009). See Docket No. 83. Function Media's Motion to Compel Discovery specifically addresses the arguments that Yahoo! raises in its Motion for a Protective Order. See id. at pp. 8-13. Rather than repeat Function Media's responses herein, Function Media incorporates by reference its Motion to Compel and accompanying brief. A proposed order is attached. Respect fully submitted, /s/ Max L. Tribble, Jr. _______________________________________ Max L.
