IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

STRAIGHT PATH IP GROUP, INC.,

Plaintiff,

 v.

APPLE INC.,

Defendant. /

No. C 16-03582 WHA

NOTICE RE MOTION TO

LIMIT THE NUMBER OF

ASSERTED CLAIMS 

The Court has reviewed the opposition and reply briefs for defendant Apple Inc.’s

motion to compel plaintiff Straight Path IP Group, Inc., to limit the number of asserted claims in

this case (Dkt. Nos. 71, 74). The Court appreciates the limited progress made by both sides so

far towards limiting the number of asserted claims and prior art references. In advance of the

hearing on the motion, which remains set for April 13, the Court suggests — without yet ruling

— that Straight Path further reduce its number of asserted claims to ten, and that Apple reduce

its number of prior art references to twenty (to be clear, this means twenty individual references,

although Apple remains free to use those references in any combination).
