DOCKET NO. 9412 

AGREED MOTION OF NON-PARTY GOOGLE LLC 

FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO MOVE TO LIMIT OR QUASH OR 

OTHERWISE RESPOND TO SUBPOENA 

Non-party Google LLC (“Google”) moves pursuant to 16 C.F.R. § 3.34(c) for a ten-day 

extension of time, until February 17, 2023, to move to limit or quash the subpoena served on 

Google by Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”) on January 31, 2023 (the “Subpoena”). Microsoft 

agrees to the relief requested in this motion. 

Microsoft served Google with the Subpoena on the evening of January 31, 2023, with a 

response date of February 7, 2023. Pursuant to Rule 3.34(c), the deadline for Google to limit or 

quash the Subpoena was February 7, 2023.1 

Negotiations between Google and Microsoft as to the scope of Google’s production are

ongoing. Google requests an extension of the deadline for Google to move to limit or quash the 

Subpoena so that Google and Microsoft can continue negotiations and eliminate or narrow any 

issues that need to be presented to the Court for resolution. 

1 Google originally submitted this Motion on February 7, 2023 through the Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC”) efiling system, and properly served complaint counsel and respondents’ counsel via email. Due to an error, the FTC’s 

Office of the Secretary did not receive a courtesy copy of the filing and requested that Google re-file its motion on 

February 8, 2023. The Office of the Secretary agreed that it would accept this Motion as timely.

Pursuant to the January 4, 2023 Scheduling Order, Microsoft has until April 7, 2023, to 

complete fact discovery, and, therefore, Google does not believe the requested extension will delay 

the progress of these proceedings. 

Google therefore respectfully requests that Your Honor grant the requested relief pursuant 

to 16 C.F.R. § 4.3(b), for good cause shown. 

Dated: February 8, 2023. 

Respectfully submitted,

OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGES 

In the Matter of 

Microsoft Corporation, 

a corporation, 

and 

Activision Blizzard, Inc., 

a corporation. 

DOCKET NO. 9412 

[PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING AGREED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME 

TO MOVE TO LIMIT OR QUASH OR OTHERWISE RESPOND TO SUBPOENA 

On February 8, 2023, non-party Google LLC (“Google”) filed an Agreed Motion for 

Extension of Time to Move to Limit or Quash or Otherwise Respond to a subpoena (“Motion”)

served by Respondent Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”) on January 31, 2023.

Under FTC Rule of Practice 3.34(c), any motion to limit or quash a subpoena must be filed 

within the earlier of ten days of service of the subpoena or the time for compliance therewith. 

Google seeks an extension of time in order to continue its negotiations with Microsoft regarding 

the subpoena, thereby narrowing potential discovery disputes. 

FTC Rule 4.3(b) authorizes the Administrative Law Judge, except in circumstances not 

here presented, to extend any time limit prescribed by the rules “[f]or good cause shown.” 16

C.F.R. § 4.3(b). Based on the representations in the Motion, Google has demonstrated good cause 

for the requested extension. Accordingly, the Motion is GRANTED and it is hereby ORDERED 

that Google’s deadline for filing any motion to limit or quash the subpoena pursuant to Rule 3.34(c) 

is extended to February 17, 2023.
