STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER
WITHDRAWING CERTAIN MOTIONS
IN LIMINE PENDING BEFORE THE COURT
WHEREAS, the parties have discussed and agreed to withdraw certain motions
and the oppositions thereto in plaintiff I/P Engine’s First Motion in Limine to Exclude
Inadmissible Evidence (“MIL #1”) [Dkt. No. 315].
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, by the parties hereto, through
their undersigned counsel, subject to the approval of the Court, that the following
Motions in Limine, and the objections thereto, are withdrawn and stipulated to as follows:
1. The parties agree that, without leave of Court, no party shall, in the presence of
the jury, introduce evidence of or refer, directly or indirectly, to the retention or fee
agreements of any party’s counsel in this case, including the terms of any such retention
or the amount of any attorneys’ fees. This limitation shall apply equally to all parties.
Based upon this agreement, MIL #1.C., and the opposition thereto [Dkt. No. 432, at 10],
are withdrawn.
2. The parties agree that, without leave of Court, no party shall refer, directly or
indirectly, in the presence of the jury, to discussions or correspondence between counsel
that were not presented to the Court or discovery motions or motions for sanctions filed
in this case. Further, no party shall offer any evidence or make any reference relating to
any claim of privilege by the other party in the presence of the jury. Based upon this
agreement, MIL #1.H. [Dkt. No. 315, at 13], and the opposition thereto [Dkt No. 432, at
16], are withdrawn.
3. The parties agree that, without leave of Court, they shall not, in the presence of
the jury, make reference to or use inflammatory rhetoric, including “patent troll,” “shell
corporation,” “paper-patent holder,” “pirate,” “playing the lawsuit lottery,” “corporate
shell game,” or any similar inflammatory rhetoric. This agreement does not preclude
Defendants from offering testimony, evidence, or argument that Plaintiff or the previous
patent holders of the patents-in-suit did not make, sell, or market any products or services
that embody the patents or offering testimony or evidence that Plaintiff is a nonpracticing entity of the claimed invention or does not practice the claimed invention, or
other factual information regarding the business of Plaintiff. Based upon this agreement,
MIL #1.F. [Dkt No. 315, at 11], and the opposition thereto [Dkt No. 432, at 13], are
withdrawn.
