v.
CIVIL ACTION NO. 6:10–CV–521–LED
ALCATEL–LUCENT USA INC., et al.,
Defendants.
WI-LAN AND ERICSSON’S
JOINT MOTION TO EXTEND MEDIATION DEADLINE
On September 30, 2013, the Court ordered the parties to engage in post-trial mediation by
November 1, 2013. In connection with an appeal of a related lawsuit now pending at the Federal
Circuit, Plaintiff Wi-LAN Inc. and Defendants Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson and Ericsson
Inc. (collectively, “Ericsson”) had previously scheduled a court-ordered mediation on November
19-20, 2013. The parties plan for such mediation to be directed to a possible resolution of the
entire dispute between Wi-LAN and Ericsson, including this litigation, as all prior mediations
have been.
To avoid unnecessary duplication of efforts and expenses, the parties respectfully request
that the Court extend the November 1st mediation deadline until November 22nd to
accommodate the parties’ previously scheduled mediation.
Respectfully submitted,
Respectfully submitted,
