Jury Instructions

The parties have met-and-conferred and resolved a number of disputes regarding jury 

instructions, and they are working to resolve the remaining disputes. The parties are continuing 

to meet and confer and will submit an agreed set of Preliminary Jury Instructions that may be 

included in the jurors’ notebooks in the next few weeks. With the Court’s approval, disputed 

instructions, if any, will be reserved for decision by the Court during trial. 

Juror Questionnaire, Voir Dire Questions, and Verdict Form

The parties have agreed on a Joint Proposed Written Juror Questionnaire, Joint Proposed 

Voir Dire, and Joint Proposed Verdict Form. They are attached as Exhibits 1, 2, and 3, 

respectively. 

Statements of the Case for Use in Voir Dire

Attached hereto as Exhibit 4 is a revised statement by Voxer for use in voir dire, 

reflecting that two patents will be asserted at trial, not four. With this correction, the parties 

agree that the Court may read each party’s statement (i.e., Exhibit 4 hereto for Voxer, and 

Dkt. 260-4 for Meta) in conducting voir dire.
