Re: St. Clair Intellectual Property Consultants, Inc. v.
General Imaging Co., et al, C.A. No. 08-371-JJF
Dear Judge Faman:
Plaintiff St. Clair Intellectual Property Consultants, Inc. ("St. Clair”) respectfully urges
the Court to maintain the September 11, 2008 scheduling conference on the calendar in the
above-referenced action. St. Clair’s courtesy in granting an extension for Defendant General
Imaging Co. (“GIC") to answer should not delay the case. Counsel for Defendants Research In
Motion, Ltd. and Research In Motion Corp. (collectively, "RIM") has recently agreed to accept
service of St. Clair’s Complaint on behalf of RIM. Even though RIM will have until the same
date to answer as GIC, counsel for RIM has agreed to a Rule 26(I) meeting on Wednesday,
August 20, 2008. St. Clair believes that aRule 26(f) meeting and a subsequent scheduling
conference can still be productive at this stage of the case and anticipates that the parties can be
prepared to discuss a variety of matters including discovery limitations, non-case dispositive and
dispositive motions, and potential trial dates.} GIC will be invited to participate in the Rule 26(f)
meeting.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Frederick L. Cottrell, IH (#2555)

the related cases.
