UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CAVE CONSULTING GROUP, INC.,

Plaintiff,

v.

OPTUMINSIGHT, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 15-cv-03424-JCS 

ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR 

LEAVE TO FILE MOTION FOR 

RECONSIDERATION

Re: Dkt. No. 358

Plaintiff Cave Consulting Group, Inc. (“CCGroup”) seeks leave to file a motion for 

reconsideration of this Court’s previous order dated August 28, 2019 granting summary judgment 

on, among other issues, CCGroup’s ability to show antitrust damages based on lost profits in light 

of the Court’s decision to exclude opinions on that issue offered by CCGroup’s expert witness Dr. 

Sullivan. CCGroup contends Defendant OptumInsight, Inc. did not seek summary judgment on 

that issue and the Court did not provide notice that it intended to raise the issue sua sponte. See 

dkt. 358. CCGroup raises at least a colorable argument of error warranting reconsideration. The 

motion for leave to file is GRANTED. 

In addition to accepting arguments on the issue of reconsideration, to the extent the motion 

might be granted, the Court also hereby provides notice under Rule 56(f) of the Federal Rules of 

Civil Procedure of the Court’s intent to consider sua sponte whether summary judgment should be 

granted on the issue of whether CCGroup can show market damages. CCGroup may revise its 

proposed motion for reconsideration to account for this change in the scope of issues to be 

addressed. 

The Court will address the briefing schedule for CCGroup’s motion for reconsideration at 

the case management conference set for 2:00 PM today.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
