Key takeaways
Extension of time limit (only) for response to redacted FRAND submission
Claimant filed its reply brief with heavy redactions re. the FRAND part. Hence, upon Defendant’s request the deadline for filing its rejoinder brief was extended as it relates to these redactions. However, as the parts re. infringement and validity of the patent were not redacted, the deadline for the rejoinder brief in view of these aspects was not extended.
The court reserves the right to limit the subject-matter of the oral hearing to the technical aspects of the case and to postpone a hearing on FRAND.
