-2- 

Plaintiff Cutera, Inc. (“Plaintiff” or “Cutera”) and Defendant Lutronic Aesthetics, Inc. 

(“Defendant” or “Lutronic”), together the “Parties,” by and through their respective counsel of 

record, hereby submit the following joint request to amend further the Court’s Scheduling Order 

in this matter as set forth in their proposed order: 

WHEREAS, the Parties are involved in a related and ongoing arbitration proceeding with 

JAMS (JAMS Reference No. 1110025250) involving Cutera and ten (10) current Lutronic 

employees formerly employed by Cutera (the “Lutronic Respondents”); 

WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed that the discovery from the JAMS matter, and 

specifically, the discovery obtained from an arbitrator-appointed neutral forensics examiner, 

Daniel Garrie, may be used in this matter; 

WHEREAS, the Court’s August 4, 2020, Scheduling Order memorialized the Parties’ 

agreement that discovery in their related JAMS proceeding shall be shared in this case, subject to 

the Federal Rules; 

WHEREAS, by orders dated April 5, 2021, and September 16, 2021, this Court previously 

extended the pretrial deadlines below because of the significant time involved in forensically 

examining, collecting, and conducting a privilege review of 54 devices and accounts of the 

Lutronic Respondents, and the current deadlines are as follows: 

1. Fact discovery shall be completed by May 2, 2022. 

2. Expert disclosures shall be completed by May 31, 2022. 

3. Rebuttal expert witnesses shall be exchanged by June 20, 2022. 

4. Expert discovery shall be completed by July 25, 2022. 

5. All dispositive motions shall be heard by August 26, 2022. 

WHEREAS, the parties continue to engage in extensive forensics discovery; 

WHEREAS, the Parties have obtained voluminous discovery (863.15 gigabytes, the 

equivalent of 21,578,750 pages) from the arbitrator-appointed neutral forensics examiner in the 

JAMS matter, and said information remains the subject of review, as well as meet and confer 

conferences regarding privilege issues;

ORDER 

CASE NO. 2:20-CV-00235-KJM-DB 

-3- 

WHEREAS, the Parties anticipate that Plaintiff’s counsel’s review of the data collected 

during the forensic examination process will be complete in approximately four months; 

WHEREAS, the Parties anticipate further written discovery and deposition discovery in 

addition to discovery outstanding; 

WHEREAS, Lutronic has stipulated to Cutera’s amendment of the first amended complaint 

in this matter to permit the addition of certain trademark related claims against Lutronic Aesthetics, 

Inc. Defendant has opposed Plaintiff’s motion for leave to add Lutronic Corp. as a defendant; 

WHEREAS, the Court has taken under submission Cutera’s motion to file a further 

amended complaint and has not yet ruled on the motion; 

WHEREAS, the Parties believe that due to the above-referenced forensics activities and 

resulting lapse of time it is necessary to, and good cause exists to, extend the fact discovery, expert, 

and dispositive motion schedule set forth in the Court’s Scheduling Order by 180 days, as set forth 

below and subject to this Court’s approval; 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by the parties, and subject to the Court’s 

approval, by and through the undersigned counsel, as follows: 

1. Fact discovery shall be completed by November 7, 2022. 

2. Expert disclosures shall be completed by December 2, 2022. 

3. Rebuttal expert witnesses shall be exchanged by January 10, 2023. 

4. Expert discovery shall be completed by February 3, 2023.
