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

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR DEADLINE FOR
DEFENDANTS TO SUBMIT REVISED DEPOSITION DESIGNATIONS
Defendants Adobe Systems, Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., CDW LLC, Citigroup Inc., The Go
Daddy Group, Inc., Google, Inc., J.C. Penney Corp., Inc., Staples, Inc., Yahoo! Inc., and
YouTube LLC (collectively the “Defendants”) respectfully move to set a deadline for
Defendants to submit revised deposition designations.
The Defendants submitted their opening Deposition Designations on January 5, 2012, in
accordance with the parties’ agreement and the Court’s amended docket control order. (Dkt. No.
1174). Plaintiffs have raised the issue that the various designations exceed the time limitations
set by the Court’s standing order on deposition designations.
The parties have met and conferred, and Defendants have agreed to revisit their
designations in order to eliminate any redundancies, combine designations as appropriate, and to
otherwise cut back on designations.

Defendants may still seek leave to use deposition

designations at trial which exceed that permitted by the Court’s standing order depending on how
the Court determines that this case should be tried (e.g. more than one trial and dividing

defendants into smaller groups or individually for trial) but will endeavor to revise their
designations as much as practical to fall within the spirit of the Court’s standing order. Plaintiffs
are not opposed to the addition of this deadline for Defendants to submit revised designations.
For these reasons, the parties respectfully request that the Court set a pretrial deadline for
submission of revised deposition designations and extend the deadline for providing rebuttal
designations and objections to the revised deposition designations:
EVENT
Defendants’ Revised Video and Stenographic Deposition
Designations due.
Defendants’ Objections to Plaintiffs’ Video and Stenographic
Deposition Designations due.
Plaintiffs’ Rebuttal Designations and Objections to Defendants’
Revised Video and Stenographic Deposition Designations due.
Defendants’ Objections to Plaintiffs’ Rebuttal Deposition
Designations due.

PROPOSED DEADLINE

January 12, 2012
January 18, 2012
January 21, 2012

Respectfully submitted,
