Dear Judge Farnan:
I am Delaware counsel to the defendant, TiVo, in the above action, in which briefing on
my client’s motion to dismiss (D.I. 12) was completed on Monday, August 25, 2008, and in
which an in-person Rule 16 conference has been scheduled to take place at 2:30 p.m. on
September 11, 2008.
Pursuant to Local Rule 7.1.4, TiVo hereby respectfully requests that the Court schedule
oral argument on the motion to dismiss. Since TiVo’s California counsel will be attending the
Rule 16 conference: on September 11, TiVo further respectfully requests that, if convenient for
the Court, oral argument on the motion to dismiss take place at the same time. We have
requested plaintiffs? position on this issue but have not yet received their response, and in order
to comply with today’s deadline for requesting oral argturient under the local rules, we are
submitting this letter without awaiting their reaction.
Respectfully,
/s/ Steven J Balick
