I am a partner in the firm Fitzpatrick, Cella, Harper & Scinto, counsel for Plaintiff International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”). I submit this declaration in support of the parties' Stipulation Regarding Case Schedule. I make this declaration of my own personal knowledge and will competently testify thereto if called upon to do so. 2. On April 15, 2011, the Court entered a Stipulated Order [Dkt. 44], which sets forth a briefing schedule for cross-motions for summary judgment. The Stipulated Order also sets the hearing on cross-dispositive motions for September 23, 2011, or any later date, subject to the convenience of the Court’s calendar. 3. The parties, both the respective corporate representatives and outside counsel, have been actively discussing resolution of this case, and have reached a settlement in principle. Accordingly, the parties have met and conferred and agree that continuing the case schedule for two weeks will facilitate preparation of the necessary settlement papers precedent to resolution of this action. 4. The Court previously granted the Stipulated Order to permit settlement discussions. Otherwise, the only time modification in this case was to change the Case Management Conference from December 3, 2010, to January 14, 2011, to coincide with the hearing on Rambus's motion to dismiss. See Dkt. 30. 5. The requested modification in the current case schedule will not affect any other pre-trial deadlines, as the pre-trial schedule has not yet been entered in this case. 21 22 23 24 CV 10-04017 JSW - STIPULATION RE: CASE SCHEDULE; SUPPORTING DECLARATION OF ROBERT H.
