(SECOND REQUEST) 18 19 Defendant Recon Medical, LLC (“Recon Medical”) hereby respectfully moves this Court 20 for the entry of an Order to extend the deadline to file the Joint Pretrial Order. This motion is 21 unopposed by Plaintiff, Composite Resources, Inc. (“Composite”). 22 23 Denko & Bustamante LLP 2905 San Gabriel St. Suite 205 Austin, TX 78705 RECON MEDICAL, LLC’S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND JOINT PRETRIAL ORDER DEADLINE Page 1 Dockets.Justia.com 1 Previously the parties submitted a stipulation in March of 2018 to extend discovery 2 deadlines generally, since then discovery has now closed, dispositive motions have been decided, 3 the pretrial settlement conference has been conducted, and one stipulated request to extend the 4 Joint Pretrial Order deadline was approved. Recon Medical now requests a second extension. 5 Composite does not oppose or object to this request. 6 7 8 9 Pursuant to LR IA 6-1 and LR 26-4, Defendant Recon Medical, for good cause as discussed below, hereby moves the court to extend the Joint Pretrial Order deadline, presently set in this matter on November 1, 2019, to November 22, 2019. A. Good Cause Exists for the Requested Extension in this Patent Litigation The Joint Pretrial Order deadline is presently set for November 1, 2019. (ECF No. 165.) 10 It has been determined that with commitments and deadlines in other matters, it will be very 11 difficult to meet this deadline despite the parties’ diligence. This particularly true in light of the 12 nature of this case: a patent case involving fifty asserted claims of infringement by Composite 13 reaching across three patents; concomitant claims of invalidity and inequitable conduct 14 15 16 17 forwarded by Recon; damages issues relating to the Court’s findings of trademark infringement and unfair competition; and an unfair trade practices claim pursuant to the South Carolina Unfair Trade Practices Act. The parties have been working diligently to meet the current deadline, having exchanged deposition designations and Composite having provided a draft of the Pretrial 18 Order today. See Johnson v. Mammoth Recreations, Inc., 975 F.2d 604, 609 (9th Cir. 1992) 19 (noting the primacy of diligence in determining good cause). Accordingly, extending the Joint 20 Pretrial Order deadline will conserve the resources of Recon Medical and allow counsel to 21 provide the Court a superior pretrial order, serve the Court’s purposes under Federal Rule of 22 23 Denko & Bustamante LLP 2905 San Gabriel St. Suite 205 Austin, TX 78705 RECON MEDICAL, LLC’S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND JOINT PRETRIAL ORDER DEADLINE Page 2 Case 2:17-cv-01755-MMD-VCF Document 166 Filed 10/24/19 Page 3 of 6 1 Civil Procedure 1 as well as judicial efficiency, and will not delay or otherwise impact the trial 2 date as no trial date has been set. Further, the Plaintiff does not oppose or object to the motion. 3 B. Proposed Deadlines 4 1. Pretrial Order Cut-Off Date: 5 Current Deadline: November 1, 2019 6 7 8 9 Proposed: November 22, 2019 C. Conclusion Recon Medical respectfully submits that good cause exists for an extension of the Joint Pretrial Order deadline as stated herein, and it is not sought for purposes of undue delay. Further, the extension sought will not impact the trial as a trial date has not yet been set. Accordingly, 10 Recon Medical respectfully request that the Court extend the Joint Pretrial Order deadline as 11 requested above. The Plaintiff does not oppose or object to the motion. 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 ORDER IT IS SO ORDERED. The Parties’ Joint Pretrial Order deadline is extended to November 22, 2019. 24thday of ________________, October Dated this ___ 2019. 19 20 UNITED STATES JUDGE 21 22 23 Denko & Bustamante LLP 2905 San Gabriel St. Suite 205 Austin, TX 78705 RECON MEDICAL, LLC’S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND JOINT PRETRIAL ORDER DEADLINE Page 3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Dated: October 24, 2019 Respectfully submitted, /s/ John M.
