v.

NISTICA, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 13-cv-03345-BLF (JSC)

ORDER FOLLOWING DISCOVERY 

HEARING

Re: Dkt. No. 155

Plaintiff Finisar Corporation (“Finisar”) brings this patent infringement lawsuit against its 

competitor, Defendant Nistica, Inc. (“Nistica”), alleging infringement of six of Finisar’s patents 

directed at devices and components used in optical communications networks. This matter has 

been referred to the undersigned magistrate judge for the purposes of discovery. (Dkt. No. 58.) 

Now pending before the Court is Finisar’s motion to strike portions of Nistica’s amended 

preliminary invalidity contentions. (Dkt. No. 155.) The parties appeared in court for a hearing on 

that motion on March 26, 2015. Having considered the parties’ filing, and in light of the parties’ 

representations at that hearing, it is ORDERED that, if necessary, the parties shall file by close of 

business on Monday, March 30, 2015, a stipulation and proposed briefing schedule on crossmotions for leave to amend infringement and invalidity contentions.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 27, 2015
