ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES, INC., et

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-00226-YGR (JSC)

ORDER EXTENDING LOCAL RULE 

37-3 DEADLINE AS TO CERTAIN 

DISCOVERY

Re: Dkt. No. 205

This matter has been referred to the undersigned magistrate judge for all discovery matters. 

(Dkt. No. 183.) Now before the Court is a joint request by the parties to waive Civil Local Rule 

37-3, which governs the timing for filing a discovery motion, as it pertains to a limited set of

discovery requests, identified below. (Dkt. No. 205.) The parties assert that, pursuant to Local 

Rule 37-3, the deadline to file motions to compel is August 19, 2016. (Id. at 1.) The parties note, 

however, that there are several sets of recent discovery requests for which the parties “are 

continuing to cooperatively meet and confer on the scope of the requests and the dates for the 

supplemental responses” and thus any motions to compel would be premature at this time. (Id.) 

The Court agrees that the parties are best served by attempting to resolve their discovery disputes 

before seeking court intervention.

Accordingly, for good cause shown, the Court GRANTS the parties’ request and extends 

the Local Rule 37-3 deadline with respect to the following discovery: (1) Plaintiffs served 

Defendant Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (“AMD”) with a Third Set of Interrogatories on July 8, 

2016, and AMD served objections and responses on August 11, 2016; (2) Plaintiffs served 

Individual Defendants Rory P. Read, Thomas J. Seifert, Dr. Lisa T. Su, and Richard A. Bergman 

with a First Set of Interrogatories on July 8, 2016, and the Individual Defendants served objections

and responses on August 11, 2016; (3) Individual Defendant Dr. Lisa T. Su served Plaintiffs with 

a First Set of Interrogatories on July 13, 2016, and Plaintiffs served objections and responses on 

August 12, 2016; and (4) AMD served Plaintiffs with a First Set of Interrogatories on August 13, 

2015, and Plaintiffs supplemented their responses to contention interrogatories on August 12, 

2016. If the parties are unable to resolve all disputes with respect to the above discovery, any 

discovery motions must be filed with the Court by September 9, 2016.

This Order disposes of Docket No. 205.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 19, 2016
