CIVIL ACTION NO. 6:09-CV-446 (LED)

YAHOO!’S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXPEDITED BRIEFING
AND HEARING ON YAHOO!’S MOTION FOR SEPARATE TRIAL

On December 12, 2011, Defendant Yahoo! Inc. (“Yahoo!”) filed its Motion for
Separate Trial (“Motion”). Yahoo! requests that the Court issue an expedited schedule for
briefing and hearing on the Motion. Plaintiffs, The Regents of the University of California
and Eolas Technologies, Inc., have indicated that they do not oppose the expedited brief
schedule.
Yahoo! requests the Court set an expedited briefing schedule on Yahoo!’s Motion
for Separate Trial as set forth below:
•

Plaintiffs’ Opposition Brief due:

Wednesday,

December

21,

2011; and
•

1

Defendants’ Reply Brief (if any) due:

The Plaintiffs reserve the right to file a sur-reply.

Tuesday, December 27, 2011.1

Yahoo! also requests the Court set the hearing on Yahoo!’s Motion for a date before
the January 24, 2012 pretrial conference (Dkt. No. 1089) and as early as the week of
January 3, 2012. A better understanding of the trial structure will focus the pretrial
conference, making it more efficient for both the parties and the Court. Plaintiffs do not
oppose this request but state that they “defer to the Court as to the need for and schedule of
a hearing.”
Wherefore, Yahoo! therefore respectfully request the Court grant the expedited
briefing and hearing schedule as outlined above and in the attached order.
