SOFTWARE RIGHTS ARCHIVE, LLC v. GOOGLE INC., YAHOO! INC., IAC SEARCH & MEDIA, INC., AOL LLC, AND LYCOS, INC. Civil Case No. 2:07-cv-511 (CE)

GOOGLE'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR LEAVE TO EXCEED PAGE LIMITATIONS FOR ITS MOTION FOR PROTECTION Defendant Google Inc. ("Google"), through its undersigned counsel, respectfully moves this Court for leave to exceed page limitations for its Motion for Protection, filed on April 2, 2010. In support of Google's request to exceed page limitations, Google states as follows: 1. The Local Rules of the District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, under CV-

7(a)(2), limit Google's Motion for Protection to 15 pages. 2. Google and Plaintiff Software Rights Archive, LLC ("SRA") have been unable to

resolve their differences regarding discovery into various areas of Google's proprietary products and technologies. To most efficiently address these multiple disputes, Google presents them in a consolidated Motion for Protection. For this reason, Google requests leave from the Court to exceed the page limitation up to and including twenty-one (21) pages. 3. This request is not opposed by SRA.

WHEREFORE, Google respectfully requests that it be granted leave to exceed page limitations for its Motion for Protection, up to and including twenty-one (21) pages.
