AMENDED JOINT STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO CONTINUE DISCOVERY AND 

EXPERT DISCLOSURE 

A/72355266.1 

 Pursuant to Civil Local Rules 6-2 and 7-12, Plaintiff Decru, Inc., and Defendants 

Cypherix Software Pvt. Ltd. and iSystems Services LLC STIPULATE AND AGREE as 

follows: 

1. On May 15, 2007, the Court entered a Pretrial Order setting forth the 

following discovery and expert disclosure deadlines in this matter: 

 Non-Expert Discovery Cutoff: 12/7/07 

 Designation of Experts: 1/4/08 

 Expert Reports: 1/11/08 

 Designation of Supplemental/Rebuttal Experts: 1/25/08 

 Supplemental/Rebuttal Reports: 1/25/08 

 Expert Discovery Cutoff: 2/15/08 

(Docket No. 20). 

2. On July 3, 2007, pursuant to stipulation by the parties, the Court entered 

an Order extending the parties’ mediation deadline for this matter to September 18, 2007, the 

earliest date the parties were available to meet with one another. (Docket No. 27). 

3. On September 18, 2007, the parties engaged in mediation regarding their 

disputes in this matter, but the mediation did not result in a settlement. 

4. Because the parties have been unable to settle this matter, they now need 

to complete non-expert discovery to prepare for trial. 

5. On November 13, 2007, the Court entered a Amended Pretrial Order 

setting forth the following discovery and expert disclosure deadlines in this matter: 

 Non-Expert Discovery Cutoff: 01/07/08 

 Designation of Experts: 01/4/08 

 Expert Reports: 01/11/08 

 Designation of Supplemental/Rebuttal Experts: 01/25/08 

 Supplemental/Rebuttal Reports: 01/25/08 

 Expert Discovery Cutoff: 02/29/08 

6. Non-expert discovery in this matter is complicated by the fact that

A/72355266.1 

Defendant Cypherix, and all of its employees and documents, are located in India. 

7. Additionally, some witnesses are unavailable for at least the next thirty 

days due to leave from their employment, such as for medical reasons. 

8. The parties have exchanged documents on two occasions. However, after 

the latest meet and confer conference, Decru believes that it will file a motion to compel further 

production of documents in the next week. 

9. As a result of these complications, the parties believe it is desirable to add 

an additional month of time to complete necessary non-expert discovery. 

10. Because the parties contemplate the completion of non-expert discovery 

around the same time that expert designations and expert reports are currently set to be 

exchanged, the parties also require additional time to prepare for expert disclosures. 

11. The current date for hearing dispositive motions is March 18, 2008. This 

date requires that the parties file any dispositive motions no later than February 12, 2008, which 

is only a few days after the newly proposed date for the close of fact discovery, February 8, 

2008. Accordingly, the parties request the Court to reschedule the last date for the hearing of 

dispositive motions to Tuesday, April 15, 2008. 

12. The trial date, originally scheduled for May 19, 2008, was moved to June 

9, 2008 during our November 13, 2007 case management conference. The proposed 

continuation of discovery and expert disclosure deadlines does not change the June 9, 2008, trial 

date set forth in the Court’s Pretrial Order. (Docket No. 45). 

13. Accordingly, Decru and Cypherix, through their respective counsel, 

concur in the request and respectively request that the Court continue discovery and expert 

disclosure deadlines in this matter as follows: 

 Non-Expert Discovery Cutoff: 02/08/08 

 Designation of Experts: 02/08/08 

 Expert Reports: 02/15/08 

 Designation of Supplemental/Rebuttal Experts: 02/29/08 

 Supplemental/Rebuttal Reports: 02/29/08
