APPLERA CORPORATION-APPLIED

BIOSYSTEMS GROUP, a Delaware

corporation,

Plaintiff,

 v. 

ILLUMINA, INC., a Delaware corporation,

SOLEA INC., a Delaware corporation, and

STEPHEN C. MACEVICZ, an individual,

Defendants. /

No. C 07-02845 WHA

RESPONSE TO REQUEST ON

DATE-CERTAIN TRIAL

With respect to the request for a “certain trial date,” the Court is sympathetic to the

problems in trailing another case, but many other parties customarily do so and adjust to the

uncertainty. There is no date certain that could be given anyway, given the calender of the

Court, the loss of one member of our district, and the priority that criminal cases would receive

over civil cases like this one. Counsel are invited to stipulate to a magistrate judge and the

undersigned will help arrange a date-certain trial.

Dated: October 2, 2008.
