IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ADOBE SYSTEMS, INC.,

Plaintiff,

 v.

ST. PAUL FIRE AND MARINE

INSURANCE COMPANY,

Defendant. /

No. C 07-00385 JSW

ORDER GRANTING ST. PAUL’S

ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO

EXTEND EXPERT WITNESS

DISCLOSURE

The Court has received Defendant St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company (“St.

Paul”)’s administrative motion to extend the expert witness disclosure deadlines and the

briefing thereon. This afternoon, the Court held a telephonic hearing to adjudicate the dispute,

but was not able to secure a court reporter. Therefore, the Court’s rulings are memorialized in

this Order.

The disputed documents regarding the fee invoices for the Underlying Actions shall be

produced by Adobe Systems Incorporated on a rolling basis, with the final documents produced

no later than December 20,2007. The parties shall meet and confer and submit a stipulated

protective order for this Court’s review to protect the production from constituting a waiver of

the attorney-client privilege or a waiver of the attorney work product protection. To the extent

documents become irrelevant as a result of the Court’s ruling on St. Paul’s pending motion for

clarification, St. Paul should return those documents and the Court will, if necessary, address

any issues regarding those documents at the appropriate time.
