Marshall Patent Scheduling Conferences
We went telephonic with this month’s patent scheduling conferences, so yes, this is about how the parking looked. Here are the results.
Marshall
Motion to Take Depositions After the Deadline
There is a right way and a wrong way to do this, and this order illustrates both.
Are We There Yet?
A couple of changes on the June trial front – appears we may have a couple of jury trials starting in June after all in both Marshall and Waco. But no, Collin, we’re not there yet. Why didn’t you bring your charger?
Supplemental Expert Reports
Parties’ fights on the eve of trial often focus the propriety of supplemental expert reports. That is certainly the case with respect to this order on one of the cases set for trial in Marshall on July 6.
June patent trials?
A recent general order from the chief judge of the WDTX and a review of recent docket activity indicates that we might not be seeing any June patent trials after all.
Motion to Disqualify Expert
The issue presented in this motion was whether a party could use an expert who was alleged to have had access to confidential information regarding the defendants in a prior consultancy.
Motion to Compel Stricken
a/k/a how not to file a motion to compel.
Amending Contentions Under § 295
So how’d you spend your weekend? I made (Brennan’s) Eggs Benedict and mimosas for my wife for Mother’s Day and built a 3/10″ command module. Oh, and read an interesting case on amending contentions under 35 U.S.C. § 295.
Implicit venue
It may not look like it, but this early 1960s photo marks the implicit beginning of venue in Marshall. So why don’t we look at a case of [i]mplicit venue?
Get Those Mute Buttons Ready – Patent Scheduling Conferences Go Telephonic
We’ll be socially distancing a bit longer, it appears, as the upcoming May patent scheduling conferences have moved to telephonic.
