United States District Court

For the Northern District of California

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SYNOPSYS, INC.,

Plaintiff,

 v.

ATOPTECH, INC.,

Defendant. /

No. C 13-2965 MMC

ORDER DENYING WITHOUT

PREJUDICE PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR

RELIEF FROM MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S

MARCH 16, 2015 ORDER

Before the Court is plaintiff Synopsys, Inc’s (“Synopsys”) “Motion for Relief from

Nondispositive Pretrial Order of Magistrate Judge,” filed March 30, 2015, by which

Synopsys seeks reversal of Magistrate Judge Donna M. Ryu’s order of March 16, 2015, to

the extent such order denies Synopsys’ motion to compel production of defendant

ATopTech Inc.’s (“ATopTech”) source code. The motion is based on evidence not

available for submission to Magistrate Judge Ryu prior to the order Synopsys now

challenges and thus is, in essence, a motion for reconsideration based on newly obtained

evidence.

Accordingly, the motion is hereby DENIED, without prejudice to Synopsys’

submitting to Magistrate Judge Ryu a motion for leave to file a motion for reconsideration,

see Civil L.R. 7-9(b), or any other appropriate filing seeking reconsideration of the subject

order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 1, 2015
