No. C 05-01938 WHA

AMENDED REQUEST 

FOR BRIEFING

The hearing on the pending cross-motions is currently scheduled for NOVEMBER 30,

2005 AT 2 P.M. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7–3, opposition briefs were due 21 days before the

hearing (i.e., on November 9) and any reply briefs were due 14 days before the hearing (i.e., on

November 16). Yet, neither reply brief has been submitted and the opposition to plaintiff’s

motion for judgment was only filed yesterday.

In addition, the Court is extremely disappointed that the parties jointly represented that

no claim construction was necessary because there was no dispute regarding any claim term,

phrases or clauses. Both the technology tutorial and Markman hearing were taken off calendar

in light of this joint representation. They will not be rescheduled. Accordingly, any briefing

concerning the proper construction of the phrase “about 60 mg/ml” must be incorporated into

the reply briefs to the pending motions, which must be filed no later than NOVEMBER 23, 2005

AT NOON.

If the parties are able to resolve this dispute without the Court’s assistance, a stipulated

dismissal of all claims may be filed in lieu of reply briefs. In any event, the parties shall jointly

update the Court on the status of their settlement discussions on or before NOVEMBER 23, 2005.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
