SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD., et al.,

Defendants/Counterclaimants. /

No. C 08-00986 SI

ORDER GRANTING SAMSUNG’S

REQUEST TO ALLOW DEPOSITION OF

WILLIAM TRIGGS

On March 24, 2010, the Court issued an order directing the parties to further meet and confer

regarding Samsung’s request to allow the deposition of William Triggs. The parties were unable to

come to an agreement during the meet and confer, and Samsung has renewed its motion. The Court now

grants Samsung’s request. 

There is no dispute that Samsung served the deposition subpoena on Mr. Triggs several weeks

prior to the fact discovery deadline of March 5, 2010, and that the deposition did not occur before the

close of discovery because the witness was unavailable. The Court recognizes the importance of

adhering to the discovery schedule, but does not wish to penalize Samsung simply because the witness

was not available before the deadline.

Samsung’s request to allow the deposition of Mr. Triggs is GRANTED. The parties shall

schedule the deposition at their convenience, but in any event no later than April 23, 2010.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
