Aug 10, 2023 267 NOTICE to Take Deposition of Catherine Truitt on August 24, 2023 filed by Sight Sciences, Inc..(Higgins, James) (Entered: 08/10/2023) (2)
Aug 9, 2023 266 ORAL ORDER re 264 Letter: The Court having reviewed the parties' discovery dispute letter submissions (D.I. 264; D.I. 265), IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff's motion to preclude Alcon from relying on IVANTIS_SS_00458207-00459034 and/or the testimony of Alcon's employee, Catherine Truitt, is DENIED without prejudice. On July 21, 2023, during preparation for Badawi's deposition, Alcon discovered and produced 190 documents, mainly Truitt's communications including Plaintiff's CEO, Paul Badawi. (D.I. 264 at 1; D.I. 265 at 1) Plaintiff contends that Alcon should be precluded from relying on these documents because they were produced nearly a month after the close of fact discovery. (D.I. 264 at 1) Rule 37(c)(1) provides that "[i]f a party fails to provide information... as required by Rule 26(a) or (e), the party is not allowed to use that information... to supply evidence on a motion, at a hearing, or at trial, unless the failure was substantially justified or is harmless." Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(c)(1). To determine whether a belated production is harmless, courts in the Third Circuit consider the five Pennypack factors. Meyers v. Pennypack Woods Home Ownership Assn, 559 F.2d 894, 905 (3d Cir. 1977). On balance, the five factors do not weigh in favor of the extreme sanction of excluding the evidence. See Konstantopoulos v. Westvaco Corp., 112 F.3d 710, 719 (3d Cir. 1997). First, Plaintiff has not shown undue prejudice resulting from the late production of 190 documents. It is undisputed that all but five of the documents were sent to or from Badawi or Sight, thus, Sight had possession of them even though they had not been disclosed by Sight in its production of Badawi's custodial ESI. See Daugherty v. Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, 701 F. App'x 246, 253 (4th Cir. 2017) (finding untimely disclosure was harmless where the defendant had the documents in its possession). Second, any prejudice resulting from the late production of the five presentations can be cured by deposing Truitt as the custodian of the documents designated to testify as a 30(b)(6) witness on August 24 on this subject matter. (D.I. 264, Ex. 6) Third, the late-produced documents are not likely to disrupt the trial schedule. References to the documents can be made in rebuttal and reply expert reports due on August 17 and September 7, respectively. (D.I. 93 at ¶ 2(i)(ii)-(iii)) Fourth, Plaintiff has not shown Alcons failure to timely produce the documents was the result of bad faith or willfulness. Plaintiff argues that Alcon should have identified Truitt and produced her documents after Plaintiff served Request for Production Nos. 156 and 157 in November of 2022. (D.I. 264 at 4; Ex. 2 at 15-16) But Truitt (unlike Badawi) was not an ESI custodian, and Plaintiff indicated it was satisfied with Alcon's responses to Request for Production Nos. 156 and 156 months before the close of fact discovery. (Id., Ex. 5 at 3) The fifth Pennypack factor is neutral. The late-produced documents are relevant to the value of the technology at issue and Plaintiff's own products that embody the asserted patents. (See, e.g., id., Ex. 11 at IVANTIS_SS_00458998; Ex. 13 at IVANTIS_SS_00459005) However, there is no argument that the viability of the parties' damages theories depends on these late-produced documents. On balance, the Court finds that the Pennypack factors weigh against the "extreme sanction" of excluding the evidence. Pennypack, 559 F.2d at 905. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the discovery dispute teleconference scheduled for August 10, 2023 at 2:00 p.m. is CANCELLED. Ordered by Judge Sherry R. Fallon on 8/9/2023. (lih) (Entered: 08/09/2023) (0)

Jul 27, 2023 259 SO ORDERED- re 258 Joint MOTION for Teleconference to Resolve Discovery Dispute. A Discovery Dispute Motion Hearing is set for 8/10/2023 at 02:00 PM before Judge Sherry R. Fallon.

Jul 25, 2023 257 STIPULATION TO EXTEND TIME to submit redacted versions of docket items 250 and 252 to July 28, 2023 - filed by Alcon Inc., Alcon Research LLC, Alcon Vision LLC, Ivantis, Inc.. (Hoeschen, Nathan) (Entered: 07/25/2023) (1)
Jul 24, 2023 255 NOTICE of Withdrawal of Pro Hac Vice Counsel, David Murdter by Sight Sciences, Inc. (Hallowell, Taylor) (Entered: 07/24/2023) (2)
Jul 24, 2023 256 ORAL ORDER re 250 Letter: The Court having reviewed the parties' discovery dispute letter submissions (D.I. 250; D.I. 252), IT IS ORDERED that Defendants' motion to preclude late-produced documents from Dr. Galanis and testimony relating to those documents is DENIED without prejudice. Rule 37(c)(1) provides that "[i]f a party fails to provide information... as required by Rule 26(a) or (e), the party is not allowed to use that information... to supply evidence on a motion, at a hearing, or at trial, unless the failure was substantially justified or is harmless." Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(c)(1). To determine whether a belated production is harmless, courts in the Third Circuit consider the five Pennypack factors. Here, one key fact informs the analysis of all five Pennypack factors: the late production comprises only sixteen single-page text exchange screenshots and two video links. (D.I. 250, Ex. 9) Thus, this case is dissimilar from Defendants' cited authority at the outset. See, e.g., Archer v. Defs., Inc., C.A. No. 18-470-SB, 2021 WL 3033347 (D. Del. Jul. 19, 2021) (precluding belated production of 60,000 sales data points). Additional facts further support the Court's conclusion that each of the Pennypack factors weighs against granting Defendants' motion to preclude. See Konstantopoulos v. Westvaco Corp., 112 F.3d 710, 719 (3d Cir. 1997). First, Defendants have not persuasively shown that they are unduly prejudiced or surprised by the production of eighteen documents from Dr. Galanis which were also in the possession of Defendants' own sales representative. See Daugherty v. Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, 701 F. App'x 246, 253 (4th Cir. 2017) (finding untimely disclosure was harmless where the defendant already had its own copies of the same documents). Defendants had been on notice of Plaintiff's theory that Defendants' sales representatives encouraged infringing uses at least since the service of Plaintiff's initial infringement contentions in August of 2022. (D.I. 252, Ex. 6 at 13, 38) Second, on July 12, 2023, Plaintiff made an offer to cure the prejudice by permitting an additional 90 minutes of fact deposition testimony from Dr. Galanis on July 25 or July 27 in accordance with Defendants' prior request. (D.I. 250, Ex. 10) The timing would have allowed sufficient opportunity for Defendants to incorporate any new fact deposition testimony into rebuttal expert reports due nearly a month later, on August 17, in satisfaction of the third Pennypack factor. (D.I. 93 at ¶ 2(i)(ii)) Fourth, there is no indication of bad faith or willfulness in failing to timely disclose the evidence. Plaintiff confirms that the documents were discovered during a preparation session for Dr. Galanis' deposition the following day, and the documents were produced within hours of their discovery. (D.I. 252 at 1) Defendants' allegation of "sandbagging" is at odds with the small scale of the production. (D.I. 250 at 4) The fifth and final Pennypack factor is neutral. The late-produced documents are relevant to Plaintiff's pleaded theory that Defendants and their agents promoted a specific infringing use of the accused product. (D.I. 59 at ¶ 73-74) Nonetheless, Defendants have not argued that the viability of this theory rests solely on the eighteen late-produced documents. On balance, the Court finds that the Pennypack factors weigh against the "extreme sanction" of excluding the evidence. Meyers v. Pennypack Woods Home Ownership Assn, 559 F.2d 894, 905 (3d Cir. 1977) (internal citations omitted). This ruling is without prejudice for Defendants to proceed with a 90-minute fact deposition of Dr. Galanis on July 25, July 27, or on a mutually agreeable date so long as it occurs reasonably in advance of the deadline for expert rebuttal reports on August 17. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the discovery dispute teleconference set in this matter for July 26, 2023 at 3:00 p.m. is CANCELLED. Ordered by Judge Sherry R. Fallon on 7/24/2023.

Jul 11, 2023 238 [SEALED] Letter to the Honorable Sherry R. Fallon from Melanie K. Sharp regarding Defendants' Letter (D.I. 236) - re 236 Letter,.

Jul 11, 2023 239 ORAL ORDER re 236 Letter; 238 Letter: The Court having reviewed the parties' discovery dispute letter submissions (D.I. 236; D.I. 238), IT IS ORDERED that Defendants' motion to compel the production of attachments referenced in lesser-included content of produced emails is GRANTED, and Plaintiff shall search for and produce the missing email attachments on or before July 17, 2023. The parties' stipulated order regarding the discovery of ESI requires the production of "complete Document Families where any portion of the Family contains relevant information." (D.I. 49 at ¶ 4(e)) The stipulated order defines the term "family" without expressly including the caveats to the definition now proposed in Plaintiff's responsive letter. (Compare id. with D.I. 238 at 1) Producing attachments to email correspondence is standard practice. See, e.g., Huber Engineered Woods LLC v. Louisiana-Pacific Corp., C.A. No. 19-342-GBW-SRF, 2023 WL 1765557, at *1 (D. Del. Jan. 23, 2023) (compelling parties to seek production of email attachment from a third party); Zawadsky v. Bankers Std. Ins. Co., 2015 WL 10853517, at *4 (D.N.J. Dec. 30, 2015) (finding Poulis factors weighed in favor of discovery sanctions in part because of defendants' "unexplained failure to produce [email] attachments in earlier productions"). As the producing party, Plaintiff bears the burden of ensuring the completeness of the production. See DataTreasury Corp. v. Wells Fargo & Co., 2010 WL 11468809, at *5 (E.D. Tex. Mar. 9, 2010) ("As in the customary course of litigation, the Court entrusts the producing party with the responsibility for completeness of production."). Defendants were able to provide Plaintiff with a representative list to demonstrate the extent to which attachments were largely missing from Plaintiff's email production. (D.I. 236, Ex. 7 at 2) The Court finds that by doing so, Defendants were not assuming the full obligation that was Plaintiff's from the start to ensure the completeness of its document production.

Aug 16, 2022 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER re D.I. [67]; D.I. [68]: Having reviewed the parties' cross-motions for a protective order (D.I. 67; D.I. 68), IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff's proposed protective order denying Defendants' in-house counsel, Jeffrey Prokop, access to "Highly Confidential Attorneys' Eyes Only" information is DENIED (D.I. 67, Ex. 2), and Defendants' proposed protective order is GRANTED (D.I. 68, Ex. A). The Federal Circuit requires that limits to attorney access should be judged on a "counsel-by-counsel basis, and cannot be determined solely by giving controlling weight to the classification of counsel as in-house rather than retained." U.S. Steel Corp. v. U.S., 730 F.2d 1465, 1468 (Fed. Cir. 1984). The determination turns on the extent to which counsel is involved in competitive decision-making with its client. See In re Deutsche Bank Trust Co. Ams., 605 F.3d 1373, 1378 (Fed. Cir. 2010). Competitive decision-making involves "counsel's advice and participation in any or all of the client's decisions (pricing, product design, etc.) made in light of similar or corresponding information about a competitor." Id. (citing U.S. Steel, 730 F.2d at 1468). A protective order is designed to guard against inadvertent disclosure of the producing party's material to a competitor's decision maker which would place it at a competitive disadvantage. The risk of inadvertent disclosure must be balanced against the potential harm to the opposing party if its in-house counsel cannot access the highly confidential Attorneys' Eyes Only materials. See U.S. Steel, 730 F.2d at 1468. For the following reasons, the Court finds that Plaintiff has not met its burden to demonstrate that restricting Defendants' in-house counsel, Mr. Prokop, from accessing materials integral to the case is warranted. The record before the Court establishes that Mr. Prokop is not a competitive decision maker because his role is limited to supervising and managing litigation against Defendants. (D.I. 68, Ex. B at ¶¶ 3-4) This is consistent with the decisions of numerous other courts which have concluded that Mr. Prokop's responsibilities are litigation-focused, he is not a competitive decision maker, and he should therefore be given access to Attorneys' Eyes Only material. (D.I. 68, Exs. F-H) In this District, the law is well-established that the risk of inadvertent disclosure is generally outweighed by in-house counsel's need for access to materials at issue in the litigation when in-house counsel's responsibilities are limited to litigation, with no competitive decision-making. See, e.g., British Telecommcns PLC v. IAC/InterActiveCorp, C.A. No. 18-366-WCB, 330 F.R.D. 387, 394 (D. Del. Mar. 18, 2019) (citing cases). Mr. Prokop's use of the materials will be restricted by the terms of the protective order, and he is bound by the same ethical obligations that bind all attorneys. See U.S. Steel, 730 F.2d at 1468. Plaintiff's argument regarding an "imbalance" between the parties does not alter the analysis, which is not dependent on the relative size of the parties and their respective in-house legal departments or whether Plaintiff lacks in-house counsel. The protective order is drafted so as to be equally balanced in safeguarding information from competitive decision makers on both sides. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the discovery dispute teleconference scheduled for August 17, 2022 at 4:00 p.m. is CANCELLED. Ordered by Judge Sherry R. Fallon on 8/16/2022. (lih)
