UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MLC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, LLC,

Plaintiff,

v.

MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 14-cv-03657-SI 

ORDER DENYING MLC'S FIRST 

MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE A 

MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION

Re: Dkt. No. 479

The Court has reviewed MLC’s first1 motion for leave to file a motion for reconsideration 

of this Court’s Order Granting in Part and Denying in Part Micron’s Motion to Strike Portions of 

the Lee Report, as well as Micron’s response. 

The Court generally agrees with Micron’s analysis as stated in the response, and concludes 

that there is no reason to grant reconsideration. The Court found – and continues to find – that 

MLC’s infringement contentions did not disclose any structure for the comparator, and did not 

disclose a theory that the memory cell could be the comparator. That finding was the basis for 

striking portions of the Lee Report regarding the memory cell-as-comparator theory. The Court 

discussed MLC’s statements during claim construction to make the point that the Lee Report was 

the first time that MLC disclosed a theory under which the comparator could be a memory cell.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
