STIPULATED REQUEST FOR ORDER CHANGING TIME
Judge: Hon. Claudia Wilken
Plaintiff Altera Corporation ("Altera") and Defendants LSI Corporation and Agere Systems, Inc. (collectively, "LSI"), by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate to change time pursuant to Local Rule 6-2.
A. Reasons for the Enlargement Of Time
On November 3, 2011, Altera filed a motion (ECF No. 39) challenging the sufficiency of LSI's Patent Local Rule 3-1 infringement contentions. The parties have reached an agreement that should resolve the issue without further assistance of the Court. As part of the agreement, the parties have agreed to extend certain due dates under the Patent Local Rules by approximately two weeks. No other dates in the schedule will be affected by the proposed adjustments to the schedule.
B. Effect the Requested Time Modification Will Have on Schedule
The requested modifications are as follows:
