United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

INTRI-PLEX TECHNOLOGIES, INC.,

Plaintiff,

v.

NHK INTERNATIONAL 

CORPORATION, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 17-cv-01097-EMC 

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND 

RECOMMENDATION; AND DENYING 

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR RELIEF 

FROM NONDISPOSITIVE PRETRIAL 

ORDER OF MAGISTRATE JUDGE

Docket Nos. 167, 170

Previously, the Court referred Defendants’ motion for leave to amend their invalidity 

contentions to a magistrate judge. On January 15, 2019, Judge Laporte issued her report and 

recommendation (“R&R”) on Defendants’ motion. More specifically, Judge Laporte 

recommended that Defendants’ motion be granted. See Docket No. 167 (R&R). Subsequently, 

IPT objected to the R&R by filing a motion for relief. See Docket No. 170 (motion). The Court 

has reviewed Judge Laporte’s R&R, IPT’s objections, and the underlying briefing on the motion 

for leave to amend. Having done so, the Court finds Judge Laporte’s R&R thorough, complete, 

and well reasoned and therefore adopts it in every respect. The Court accordingly denies IPT’s 

motion for relief from Judge Laporte’s R&R.

This order disposes of Docket Nos. 167 and 170.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 25, 2019
