[PROPOSED] ORDER REGARDING TRIAL EQUIPMENT AND 

TECHNOLOGY (2:90-CV-00520 LKK JFM )(C01-1351 TEH) 1669637.2

All parties in these proceedings stipulated regarding the use of technology at trial 

in their Joint Pretrial Conference Statement as follows: 

The parties agree that exhibits may be displayed 

electronically on projection screens and/or monitors at trial. 

The parties are allowed to use trial presentation software and 

trial technology consultant(s) to facilitate this process. The 

parties will make efforts to minimize the amount of equipment 

and consultants in the courtroom. To that end, to the extent 

the parties mutually agree to share equipment and consulting 

services, they agree to share in the cost equally. 

(Jt. Pretrial Conference Statement, 10/30/2008, Plata Dock. No. 1724, Coleman Dock. 

No. 3234 at 64:22-28.) Plaintiffs only require use of the equipment for opening 

statements and one to two days of testimony and do not intend to use it thereafter, and 

will share in the cost on an accordingly pro-rated basis.

In accordance and in furtherance of this stipulation, Defendants request the Court 

to issue an Order allowing Defendants to bring the following equipment through security 

starting November 18, 2008 to be used at trial before the Honorable Judges Reinhardt, 

Henderson, and Karlton in the Ceremonial Courtroom for the United States District Court 

for the Northern District of California, located at 450 Golden Gate Avenue, San 

Francisco, California.
