parties are unable to agree upon a list of questions, they may file

separate lists. The questions may not address the ‘486 patent or

Dr. Hodges’ qualifications to serve as an expert; the Court has

already determined that Dr. Hodges is qualified.

The Court is in receipt of several letters between counsel for

the parties concerning Dr. Hodges. Counsel are ordered not to file

any further correspondence with the Court or to send the Court

courtesy copies of any such correspondence. If any party wishes to

obtain relief from the Court, it must file a properly noticed

motion.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
