LITIGATION

MICROSOFT CORPORATION,

 Plaintiff,

COMPRESSION LABS, INC., et al.,

 

 Defendants.

Case Numbers M: C 05-01654 JF (RS)

ORDER REQUESTING

SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEFING

During the March 9, 2006 claim construction hearing, it became apparent that there was

an inadvertent miscommunication between Plaintiff Compression Labs, Inc. (“CLI”) and

Defendants as to the scope of issues in dispute. In the Joint Claim Construction and Prehearing

Statement, submitted pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-3, Defendants stated that the issue of

whether the preamble of claim 38 includes claim limitations is at issue in claim construction: 

“Claims 1, 6, 10, and 38 each include a preamble. In each of these claims, Defendants contend

that the preamble recites claim limitations.” Joint Statement, p. 2. However, CLI’s counsel

asserted that he was not aware that the construction of the preamble was at issue and accordingly

ORDER REQUESTING SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEFING

(JFLC1)

did not brief it. Accordingly, the Court hereby requests supplemental briefing, which shall

address whether the preamble of claim 38 recites claim limitations and, to the extent that the

issue has not been addressed in previous briefings and at oral argument, whether the preambles

of claims 1, 6, and 10 similarly recite claim limitations. CLI’s brief shall be filed on or before

March 20, 2006, and Defendants’ brief shall be filed on or before March 31, 2006. Each brief

shall not exceed fifteen pages. The matter thereafter shall be submitted without additional oral

argument.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
