United States District Court

Northern District of California

dismiss Plaintiff Core Wireless Licensing S.a.r.l.’s contract and related declaratory judgment 

claims no later than January 14, 2016. The parties will brief the motion in accordance with Civ.

by March 24, 2016.2 Neither party may adopt or argue a claim construction position that is 

inconsistent with a position that the party advanced in its prior briefing in this case.
