UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

Nichia Corporation 

Plaintiff, 

vs.

Seoul Semiconductor, Ltd., Seoul 

Semiconductor, Inc., Creative Technology, 

Ltd., Creative Labs, Inc., and Creative 

Holdings, Inc. 

Defendants. 

Case No: 3:06-CV-0162-MMC (JCS) 

STIPULATED REQUEST AND 

[PROPOSED] ORDER TO EXTEND 

DEADLINES FOR DISCOVERY 

Judge: Maxine M. Chesney 

 Pursuant to Magistrate Judge Spero’s recommendations and Civil L.R. 6-1(b), 6-2(a), and 

7-12, Plaintiff Nichia Corporation (“Nichia”) and Defendants Seoul Semiconductor Co., Ltd. and 

Seoul Semiconductor, Inc. (“Seoul”), through their respective undersigned counsel, hereby 

stipulate and respectfully request an order extending the deadlines for discovery as follows: 

1. Deadline to Propound Discovery Requests on Parties: March 2, 2007.

2. Deadline to Propound Discovery Requests on Non-Parties: March 13, 2007.

3. Non-Expert Discovery Cutoff: April 13, 2007.

4. Deadline for Expert Disclosures: April 27, 2007.

5. Deadline for Rebuttal Expert Disclosures: May 18, 2007.

6. Expert Discovery Cutoff: June 1, 2007.

I. REASONS SUPPORTING THE REQUEST 

 The parties stipulate and agree that good cause exists to extend the discovery deadlines 

because the parties cannot reasonably complete discovery, including third-party discovery, 

despite their diligence. In addition, the parties stipulate and agree that good cause exists because 

the proposed stipulated request will not prejudice or harm the parties or the Court because it will 

not effect any other pretrial deadlines or the date for trial.
