It is Defendant Fairchild's understanding that the Court will conduct standard voir dire in the form appended to this document, entitled "Standard Voir Dire." In addition, Fairchild proposes that the jury pool be asked the following specific voir dire questions: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Have you worked for any company that is involved in the design or manufacture of semiconductors, power converters, or electronic components? Do you strongly like or dislike science or technology? Do you have any strong opinions on patents or the patent system? Have you ever worked for a company that was involved in a patent, copyright. trademark, or trade secret dispute? Do you know anyone who is or was employed by the United States Patent and Trademark Office? In this case, you will hear questions about whether or not a patent was appropriately issued by the United States Patent Office. Do you have any feelings that would prevent you from invalidating such a patent if the facts and law supported that conclusion? Were you acquainted with any of the other members of this jury panel, prior to being called to jury duty?
