ANGIOSCORE, INC., 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

TRIREME MEDICAL, INC., ET AL., 

Defendants. 

Case No. 12-cv-03393-YGR 

PRE-TRIAL ORDER NO. 6 (PATENT CLAIMS)

RE: DISCOVERY DESIGNATIONS

On September 9, 2015, the Court held a pre-trial conference addressing, among other 

issues, defendants’ objections to plaintiff’s discovery designations. A significant number of the 

objections concerned the designations of the deposition transcript of Momi Brosh. Counsel for the 

defendants identified certain designations which he noted to be representative of the parties’ 

ongoing dispute. The Court took the issue under submission as well as an oral motion for 

reconsideration of a ruling on the record as to other Brosh designations. Pursuant to the Court’s 

instruction, plaintiff submitted documents in support of its opposition to the Rule 402 and 403 

objections. (Dkt. No. 751.) 

Having considered the arguments and reviewed the relevant portions of the Brosh 

deposition (the entirety of which the Court had in its possession from the bench trial in this case), 

the Court hereby OVERRULES defendants’ objections. In particular, and as representative 

samples, the parties have identified pages 125-26, 128, 272-75, 388, 392, 394-95, 405-06, and 430 

of the transcript. 

Defendants also raised a foundation objection as to the admission of pages 235-36 of 

Brosh’s November 19, 2014 deposition transcript. The grounds for the objection was that Brosh 

was only designated as a 30(b)(6) expert on behalf of defendants Quattro and QT Vascular, but not

TriReme, and therefore that his testimony regarding the finances of TriReme was without 

foundation. The Court initially sustained the objection on the record, but subsequently entertained 

an oral motion for reconsideration of that ruling. Having reviewed pages 10-14 of the Brosh 

deposition transcript, the Court reverses its earlier ruling and OVERRULES the foundation 

objection to pages 235-36. In pages 10-14 of the transcript, Brosh testifies to having held a role of 

Executive Vice President of Business Operations at TriReme, establishing sufficient foundation 

for his testimony as to TriReme’s finances. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
