United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MLC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, LLC,

Plaintiff,

v.

MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-03657-SI 

ORDER RE: APRIL 19, 2019 HEARING

The Court directs the parties to be prepared to address the following questions at the April 

19, 2019 hearing:

1. In the original claim construction briefing, MLC identified structures for the means plus 

function claims, albeit not specific Micron circuits. Are these claim construction 

disclosures consistent or inconsistent with the specific structures identified in the Lee 

Report for the “programming,” “selecting” and “comparing” processes?

2. If the Court agrees with Micron that Mr. Lee’s identification of the memory cell as part 

of the comparator represents a new theory and therefore should be stricken, what is the 

consequence for this case?

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 18, 2019
