Doc. 180

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS MARSHALL DIVISION NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY and JARG CORPORATION Plaintiffs, Case No. 2:07-CV-486-CE v. JURY TRIAL DEMANDED GOOGLE INC. Defendant.
PLAINTIFFS' UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR LEAVE TO EXCEED THE PAGE LIMIT

Plaintiffs Northeastern University and Jarg Corporation ("Plaintiffs") file this Unopposed Motion for Leave to Exceed Page Limit respectfully requesting leave to exceed the page limit set forth in Local Rule CV-7(a)(3)(B) for Plaintiffs' Response to Defendant Google Inc.'s Motion for Summary Judgment of Invalidity for Lack of Written Description and Failure to Disclose the Best Mode ("Response to Google's Invalidity MSJ") and Plaintiffs' Response to Defendant Google Inc.'s Motion for Summary Judgment that any Alleged Infringement of U.S. Patent No. 5,694,593 Was Not Willful ("Response to Google's Willfulness MSJ"). Plaintiffs' Response to Google's Invalidity MSJ (Dkt. 179) is 16 pages in length, excluding exhibits. Plaintiffs' Response to Google's Willfulness MSJ (Dkt. 178) is 21 pages in length, excluding exhibits. On December 21, 2010, Plaintiffs also filed a response to Google Inc.'s Motion for Summary Judgment of Noninfringement ("Noninfringement MSJ"), which was 29 pages in length. (Dkt. 107.) Thus, Plaintiffs' Responses to Google's Invalidity and

Willfulness MSJs (Dkt. 178 and Dkt. 179) collectively exceed the page limit set forth in Local Rule CV-7(a)(3)(B) by 6 pages, excluding exhibits. The additional pages are necessary because of the number of summary judgment motions

that Google has filed in this case, as well as the number of issues raised in each of Google's three motions. The additional pages are also necessitated by the complexity of some of the issues presented in Google's motions, and the severity of the relief sought. Plaintiffs have conferred with Google, and Google does not oppose this motion. Dated: March 27, 2011 Otis W.
