 On January 28, 2010, the Court entered an order continuing the Claim Construction Hearing 

from February 9, 2010 to February 23, 2010 at 9:00 a.m. In its order, the Court indicated that the 

Court will be unavailable from February 9, 2010 through February 19, 2010.

available on the date of the rescheduled hearing, February 23, 2010, and will be unavailable until 

March 14, 2010. 

The parties have contacted the Court’s clerk and were informed that the Court’s schedule 

may alternatively allow for the Claim Construction Hearing to occur on March 17, 2010. 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties, through their counsel, that the 

date for the Claim Construction Hearing pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-6 is continued from 

February 23, 2010 to March 17, 2010 at 9:00 a.m.
