Defendants.

UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND DISCLOSURE DEADLINES OF THE
ERICSSON AND SONY ERICSSON DEFENDANTS
Under the Court’s Docket Control Order and Discovery Order, the Defendants’
deadline under Patent Rule 3–4(a) and under Paragraph 2.B of the Joint Agreed
Discovery Order is September 14, 2011. It has become necessary for a key member of
the legal team for Defendants Ericsson Inc., Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, Sony
Ericsson

Mobile

Communications

(USA)

Inc.,

and

Sony

Ericsson

Mobile

Communications AB (the “Ericsson and Sony Ericsson Defendants”) to be away from the
office to attend to an unexpected personal matter. This will inhibit the Ericsson and Sony
Ericsson Defendants’ ability to meet the September 14th disclosure deadline.
Accordingly, these Defendants respectfully request that the Court extend the deadline
under Patent Rule 3–4(a) and Paragraph 2.B of the Discovery Order by one week until
September 21, 2011, as to these Defendants.
Counsel for the Ericsson and Sony Ericsson Defendants has conferred with
counsel for Plaintiff Wi–LAN Inc., and Plaintiff does not oppose this motion.
