NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANGIOSCORE, INC., 

 Plaintiff, 

 vs. 

TRIREME MEDICAL, INC., et al., 

 Defendants. 

Case No.: 12-CV-3393 YGR

ORDER GRANTING DISCOVERY RELIEF;

GRANTING UNOPPOSED MOTION TO VACATE 

ORDER; CONTINUING MOTION HEARINGS

This Order addresses three matters now pending in this case. The first is a joint discovery 

letter brief filed by the parties on January 2, 2014. (Dkt. No. 149 ("Letter Brief").) Plaintiff's 

requested search string is broad but not inappropriate, and Defendants' claims of burden lack 

specificity. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Plaintiff its requested relief and ORDERS the production 

identified in the Letter Brief, that is, documents identified using the search string "choc* NOT candy 

AND (design OR manufacture OR fda OR sell OR sale OR use OR moa OR mechanism OR scor* 

OR cut*)." Defendants shall track in an itemized fashion the costs incurred as a result of this 

production. Within three business days of the signature date of this Order, Defendants shall provide 

Plaintiff with an estimate of the costs Defendants currently anticipate the request will incur. 

Thereafter, every fifteen business days, Defendants shall provide Plaintiff with a reasonably itemized 

update of the costs actually incurred. The Court may consider, in the future, whether cost shifting is 

appropriate. 

The second matter before the Court is Plaintiff's motion to vacate the portion of this Court's 

Order of November 13, 2013 that authorized Defendants to take the deposition of a paralegal

employed by Plaintiff's counsel, Yancy Meneses. (Dkt. Nos. 121 ("November 13 Order"), 135 

("Motion to Vacate").) Defendants have filed a statement of non-opposition. The Motion to Vacate 

being unopposed, and good cause appearing, is GRANTED. The Court's November 13 Order is hereby 

VACATED to the extent that it authorized Defendants to depose Ms. Meneses. 

Finally, the Court turns to the scheduling of hearings on Defendants' motion for summary 

judgment and Plaintiff's Daubert motion, filed concurrently with its opposition to the summary 

judgment motion. (Dkt. Nos. 131 ("Summary Judgment Motion"), 139 ("Daubert Motion").) The 

former is set for hearing on January 14, 2014, the latter for January 28, 2014. The Court hereby 

CONTINUES both motion hearings to its 2:00 p.m. calendar on Tuesday, February 11, 2014, in 

Courtroom 5 of the United States Courthouse, on 1301 Clay Street, in Oakland, California. All 

briefing deadlines remain unchanged. 

This Order terminates Docket Nos. 135 and 149. 

 IT IS SO ORDERED.
