CASE NO. 6:09cv269
PATENT CASE

ORDER
This action was tried between Bedrock Computer Technologies, LLC and Yahoo!, Inc. to a
jury beginning April 27, 2011. After a five day trial, the jury reached a verdict of noninfringement.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Bedrock Computer Technologies LLC take nothing from Yahoo!,
Inc.
Because the Court prefers to resolve all post-trial issues–including motions under Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure 50 and 59–before entering a final judgment, Bedrock Computer
Technologies LLC and Yahoo!, Inc. are ORDERED to file all post-verdict motions by June 3, 2011.
Any post-verdict motions will be heard on Tuesday, July 26, 2011 at 9:30 a.m.
In addition, the Court ORDERS that the page limits of Local Rule CV-7(a)(1) apply to all
post-verdict briefing. Thus, if a party files more than one motion for judgment as a matter of law
(under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 50(b)) or motion for new trial (under Rule 59), the following
limitations shall apply: (1) a party’s motions for judgment as a matter of law and motions for new

1

trial shall not exceed sixty pages (60) collectively, excluding attachments; (2) a party’s responses to
motions for judgment as a matter of law and motions for new trial shall not exceed sixty pages (60)
collectively, excluding attachments; (3) a party’s replies to motions for judgment as a matter of law
and motions for new trial shall not exceed twenty pages (20) collectively, excluding attachments;
and (4) a party’s surreplies to motions for judgment as a matter of law and motions for new trial shall
likewise not exceed twenty pages (20) collectively, excluding attachments.
So ORDERED and SIGNED this 10th day of May, 2011.
