Case No. 5:14-cv-03750-PSG

ORDER RE: DISCOVERY DISPUTE 

(Re: Docket Nos. 208, 209)

Defendants SOLiD, Inc. and Reach Holdings LLC seek a protective order appointing a 

discovery referee at Plaintiff Corning Optical Communications Wireless Ltd.’s expense to oversee 

all remaining depositions of Defendants’ witnesses. Defendants base this request on Corning’s 

counsel’s conduct in several depositions. Corning, in turn, justifies counsel’s conduct on the 

grounds that Defendants’ witnesses were ill-prepared and were unwilling or unable to answer his 

questions. 

To avoid further issues in the future, Corning shall take its depositions of SOLiD’s CFO 

Byeong Jin Kim and CEO Seung Hee Lee in the court’s jury room. The undersigned will make 

himself available to resolve any disputes. The parties shall make all necessary arrangements by 

contacting the undersigned’s courtroom deputy, Oscar Rivera.
