On September 13, 2007, David Noonan, counsel for the Heller Ehrman

LLP (“Heller”) attorneys, contacted the Court regarding various

procedural concerns related to declarations the Heller attorneys

exception applies to the declarations and whether the Court can consider

information covered by the attorney-client privilege and work product

doctrine. Additionally, Mr. Noonan expressed concern regarding

submitting these declarations to the Court prior to resolution of the

motion. Finally, Mr. Noonan notified the Court that he intended to seek

the Court’s permission to refrain from serving the declarations on

Defendant Broadcom Corporation in light of the privileged information

contained therein.

In order to address these concerns and in the interest of justice,

the Court orders as follows:

1. Mr. Noonan shall file his motion regarding privilege on behalf

of the Heller attorneys on or before September 17, 2007 and serve the

motion on Qualcomm Incorporated, Broadcom Corporation, and Shartsis

Friese LLP, counsel for the Day Casebeer Madrid and Batchelder

attorneys;

2. Any declarations the Heller attorneys wish to file in

accordance with this Court’s August 13, 2007 Order to Show Cause [Doc.

No. 599] and August 17, 2007 Order Granting Applications for Extension

of Time in Which to File Responsive Papers [Doc. No. 614] shall be

submitted directly to Chambers in a sealed package(s) on the date

previously set for the filing of declarations, September 21, 2007. The

submissions will not be reviewed by the Court nor served on any parties

pending resolution of the privilege motion;

3. Concurrently with these submissions, the Heller attorneys must

file with the Court and serve on all parties and movants a notice

confirming what documents were submitted to Chambers in the sealed

package(s);
