Defendant's Letter Motion to Compel 57 is granted in part and denied in part. Because Plaintiff's experts Dr. Duboys and Mr. Meyst have each been designated for the two separate topics of infringement and validity, and submitted a total of six expert reports on these complex topics, the Court finds good cause to extend the time of their depositions from 7 hours to 10 hours. Similarly, Defendant's expert, Dr. Jensen, has also been designated for multiple topics and may be deposed for a total of 10 hours. (FTR Log #AT&T 3:11 - 4:00.)

| Oct 18, 2021 | 44 | STIPULATION re Order,,,,,, (JOINT STIPULATION REDUCING TERMS FOR CLAIM CONSTRUCTION) by Edge Systems LLC (Razai, Ali) (Entered: 10/18/2021) (3) |
| Oct 14, 2021 | N/A | ORDER. In anticipation of the upcoming Markman hearing, the Court has reviewed the parties' submissions. Based upon that preliminary review, it would appear that among the numerous disputed terms are matters that could well be resolved through agreement among the parties. Counsel should bear in mind that the Federal Circuit has upheld a Markman determination by a district court that declined to further construe [a] term because it was a straightforward term that required no construction. Summit 6, LLC v. Samsung Elecs. Co., 802 F.3d 1283, 1291 (Fed. Cir. 2015). Claim construction is not an obligatory exercise in redundancy. U.S. Surgical Corp. v. Ethicon, Inc., 103 F.3d 1554, 1568 (Fed. Cir. 1997). Thus, in considering -- without deciding -- the submissions in this case, one is forced to wonder, for example, whether "abrade" as applied to skin care (a concept that seems to underlie many of the disputed terms), or "sharpened" in the context of the edge of an instrument, requires lengthy argument or court analysis. Common understanding of such terminology would seem to reduce the need for further consideration. Of course, the parties are free to continue to maintain their positions. However, prior to the Markman hearing, in an effort to conserve judicial resources and reduce litigation costs, counsel is hereby directed to meet and confer in a good faith effort to reduce, if possible, the number of terms that are in dispute. Should they reach agreement on any such terms, they are further directed to file a joint letter report or stipulation by close of business on October 18. Ordered by Judge Gary R. Brown on 10/14/2021.
