Defendants and Counterclaimants Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd. and Foxconn 

Electronics, Inc. (collectively “Foxconn”) and Plaintiff and Counterclaim Defendant Lotes Co. 

Ltd. (“Lotes”) file this joint stipulation respectfully requesting an Order modifying deadlines for 

claim construction discovery and claim construction briefing. 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Patent L.R. 4-4, claim construction discovery, including any 

depositions with respect to claim construction of any witnesses, including experts, must currently 

be completed by January 23, 2017. 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Patent L.R. 4-5, the opening claim construction brief is currently 

due on February 6, 2017, the responsive claim construction brief is currently due on February 21, 

2017, and the reply claim construction brief is currently due on February 28, 2017. 

WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed to stipulate to request an extension of the claim 

construction discovery and claim construction briefing dates to accommodate the schedules of the 

Parties’ experts. In particular, Foxconn’s expert, Dr. Michael G. Pecht, is working in Asia 

through early February and will not be available for a deposition until February 10, 2017. Lotes’s 

expert, Dr. Vijay Gupta, will be available for deposition on February 17, 2017. 

WHEREAS, the Parties have stipulated that the depositions of Drs. Pecht and Gupta shall 

be limited to issues relating to claim construction, and that these depositions shall not preclude 

later depositions on these experts’ respective reports, as provided for pursuant to the Case 

Management Order. Dkt. 228, ¶ 5. 

WHEREAS, this brief extension will not impact any other dates on the trial schedule 

because there will be no separate claim construction hearing pursuant to the Case Management 

Order. Dkt. 228, ¶ 18. The close of non-expert discovery will remain on June 30, 2017. The 

deadline to file dispositive motions will remain on July 27, 2017. The start of trial will remain on 

November 6, 2017. There have been no previous time modifications in this case.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between 

the Parties, through their respective attorneys of record, and subject to approval by the Court, the 

following schedule:
