Corporation v. ZTE Corporation et al.
on October 22, 2013. (Dkt #52).
30. As of the date and time of the execution of this declaration, my office has
not received any notice, pleadings or documents which would in any way indicate
that Defendants SanDisk, Blackberry, ZTE, or Pantech have joined in Apple’s
motion to amend and/or are seeking certification of the Collateral Estoppel Order
in each of their respective cases.
31. My office provided drafts of the stipulated judgments to each Defendant
separately via their counsel before the Huawei settlement was entered into. It
should be noted that Apple and FUJIFILM have the same counsel. However,
separate drafts of the stipulated judgments were provided to the shared counsel of
Apple and FUJIFILM.
32. Each of the Defendants negotiated their respective stipulated judgments for
the most part on their own (with the exception of Apple and FUJIFILM who, as
noted, share the same counsel), separate and apart from each other, some without
regard to what the other Defendants agreed to or would agree to.
33. I spoke to counsel for GoPro about the stipulated judgment in that case after
GoPro had sent its redlined draft of the stipulated judgment to me via email and
emails were traded thereon.
34. While I may have stated during that conversation that e.Digital did not at
that time intend to appeal the Collateral Estoppel Order in the GoPro case, at no
time did I represent to GoPro’s counsel that e.Digital did not intend to immediately
appeal the Collateral Estoppel Order in any of the other e.Digital cases or the
Huawei case. It was my understanding that our discussions were limited to the
GoPro case only and that GoPro’s counsel had authority to negotiate the stipulated
judgment for his client only. GoPro’s counsel never stated otherwise during our
telephone conversation.
35. GoPro’s counsel never asked me what e.Digital’s intentions were with
respect to filing an appeal of the Collateral Estoppel Order in any of the other
e.Digital cases to include the
Huawei case.
36. I dispute GoPro’s version of the facts stated in the declaration of GoPro’s
counsel.
I declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the United States that the
foregoing is true and correct. Executed this 22nd day of November, 2013.
