Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. While it was the court's intent that plaintiffs file an amended complaint by 11/29 (and not a motion for leave to file such), it can understand why the imprecision of the court's docket entry has sown confusion. To be absolutely clear, plaintiffs will submit and serve on defendants the proposed amended complaint on or before December 27, 2013. Defendants will have until January 20, 2014 to file an opposition to the request for leave to amend or a renewed motion to dismiss (or both), as they choose. (RGS, law4) (Entered: 12/04/2013)

Judge Richard G. Stearns: NOTICE re dkt #53. The court appreciates the advice and forethought of counsel, but sees no reason for recusal.

As noted in the recusal decision, the concern that plaintiff raised involved Dr. Sugarbaker as an individual, not Brigham and Women's Hospital as an institution. (RGS, law4) (Entered: 01/16/2014)

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting 182 Motion to Stay the claims against customer-defendants. The issues in the customer-defendant claims significantly overlap those in the manufacturer claims. The resolution of the manufacturer cases will simplify questions of liability as well as damages. The customer-defendant claims are in their infancy and discovery has not begun. Concerns of judicial efficiency and economy favor a stay of the customer-defendant cases pending the resolution of the manufacturer cases, and plaintiffs will not be prejudiced by the stay.(RGS, int2) (Entered: 07/22/2015)

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying 219 Motion for Summary Judgment; denying 237 Motion for Summary Judgment. Defendants Hitachi Medical and Toshiba Medical move for summary judgment limiting the damages period on the same two legal theories - laches and failure to mark under 35 U.S.C. § 287. Defendants contend that plaintiffs were aware of their alleged infringing activity as early as 2006, but did not bring suit until 2015, after the 2013 expiration of the '360 patent. Defendants argue that because the delay exceeded 6 years, they are entitled to a presumption of laches, and further that they suffered evidentiary prejudice from the dissipation of memory and unavailability of witnesses. See A.C. Aukerman Co. v. R.L. Chaides Const. Co., 960 F.2d 1020, 1028 (Fed. Cir. 1992) (en banc). Plaintiffs counter that the delay was justified by the many other lawsuits it prosecuted during the relevant period asserting and reexamining the '360 patent. Given that the Supreme Court granted certiorari in SCA Hygiene Prods. Aktiebolag v. First Quality Baby Prods., LLC, 136 S.Ct. 1824 (2016), for the express purpose of considering the continued availability of the laches defense in the patent context (following its 2014 holding in Petrella v. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, 134 S.Ct 1962 (2014), that laches cannot shorten the copyright law's three-year statute of limitations) and that fact discovery has yet to be concluded in this matter, the court will DENY the motion with respect to laches without prejudice, and defer a final decision on the defense until the Supreme Court rules.Defendants also contend that the damages period should be shortened from November 2011 onwards because plaintiffs licensed the '360 patent to Siemens (and GE thereafter), but failed to ensure that Siemens (and GE) marked the licensed MRI systems with the '360 patent number. Plaintiffs argue that they do not need to rely on the constructive notice provision of § 287, because Dr. Filler provided defendants with actual notice of the '360 patent during his attendance at RSNA (Radiological Society of North America) meetings from 2006 to 2014, that he offered defendants a patent license in an email in 2008, and posted on a public website regarding defendants' need to license the '360 patent in 2011. From the submitted record, it is unclear to the court what, if any, products by Siemens and GE should have been marked with the '360 patent. Although Siemens and GE obtained patent licenses from plaintiffs, they both expressly denied infringement in their respective settlement agreements. The agreements also do not identify a specific set of licensed products. Finally, the court notes that obtaining a patent license after being sued is a common compromise undertaken to settle a claim and avoid expensive and uncertain litigation. Because defendants have not met their burden of production in showing that there are licensed products practicing the patented technology that should be marked, their motion for summary judgment on this ground will be DENIED.

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part 229 Motion for Summary Judgment. Brainlab moves for summary judgment of noninfringement. It argues that it does not directly infringe the '360 patent because it does not manufacture or sell allegedly infringing MRI equipment; rather, Brainlab produces software that processes the output from Siemens, GE, or Philips MRIs. Brainlab also contends that it does not indirectly infringe because Siemens, GE, and Philips have each reached separate settlement agreements with plaintiffs to release the MRI manufacturers and their customers from infringement claims. Brainlab argues that absent direct customer infringement, it cannot be liable for indirect infringement. See Dynacore Holdings Corp. v. U.S. Philips Corp., 363 F.3d 1263, 1272 (Fed. Cir. 2004).Plaintiffs, for their part, counter that at least two of the manufacturer settlement agreements exclude any alleged infringement by Brainlab. In addition, Brainlab is liable for indirect infringement because there are unauthorized independent medical practitioners who directly infringe the asserted claims. Plaintiffs also maintain that Brainlab is itself a direct infringer because it markets and sells the BrainSuite product, an integrated turnkey platform for performing neurosurgery. According to plaintiffs, BrainSuite incorporates an MRI system and performs the accused functionality. Plaintiffs finally contend that Brainlab is liable as a direct infringer for "direct[ing] or control[ling]" the users of the BrainSuite to infringe the '360 patent. Akamai Techs. Inv. v. Limelight Networks, Inc., 797 F.3d 1020, 1022 (Fed. Cir. 2015).Brainlab's potential liability turns on the scope of each of the manufacturer settlement agreements. The Siemens agreement defines "Licensed Products" as any product or service, including but not limited to, MRI scanners, software components and related services, devices, systems, methods or other offerings, that has been, is or will be developed, made, used, marketed, distributed, purchased, offered for sale, leased, rented, licensed, imported, exported and/or sold by, or on behalf of, Siemens or their Affiliates that would, by itself or in combination with a Third Party's products or services, infringe any claim within the Licensed Patents but for the Licenses granted in this Agreement.Siemens Agreement § 1 (emphasis added). The Siemens agreement also extends a patent license to Siemens's "direct and indirect customers." Id. § 4.1. A Brainsuite user that employes a Siemens MRI system and is also a Siemens customer, and the Brainsuite product is a licensed combination of a Siemens MRI system and a third-party component. (As for Dr. Filler's suggestion that Brainlab purchases the MRI systems from a manufacturer and in turn provides it as a part of Brainsuite, Brainlab would also itself stand in the shoes of a Siemens customer.)The Philips agreement differs in several respects. Although it includes "Licensed Patents" and "Licensed Products" in the definition section, it does not grant a patent license. Rather, the signatories agreed to a release and a covenant not to sue. "[T]he covenant [not to sue] shall extend to... any direct or indirect customers of Philips... for any combination of products and/or services that included products and/or services of (i) Philips... and (ii) Brainlab," however, "[n]othing in this covenant is intended to extend to Brainlab." Id. § 5.1. Likewise, the release does not extend to Brainlab. See id. § 3.1. Thus, to the extent that Brainsuite may in combination with a Philips MRI system infringe the '360 patent (plaintiffs state in their responsive statement of facts that they have not fully explored this issue in discovery), plaintiffs have not waived the right to pursue damages from Brainlab (less any recovery already obtained from Philips for the same infringement).The GE agreement provides a patent license, but that license expressly excludes "any infringement attributable to Brainlab... even when combined with products or services from GE." GE Agreement § 4.1. Thus, a combination of Brainsuite with a GE MRI system is excluded from the license. To the extent that Brainsuite may infringe the '360, Brainlab may be liable.Finally, with respect to indirect infringement by unauthorized independent medical practitioners, Brainlab points out plaintiffs have no evidence that any of the handful of such practitioners identified by plaintiffs used Brainlab products in their alleged infringement. For the foregoing reasons, Brainlabs motion for summary judgment of noninfringement is ALLOWED IN PART in connection with Siemens MRI systems and the so-called unauthorized independent medical practitioners, and DENIED IN PART in connection with Philips and GE MRI systems.In light of the foregoing rulings on the summary judgment motions, the court will cancel the motion hearing scheduled for August 19, 2016 at 2pm, but will see the parties on August 18, 2016 at 2pm for the Markman hearing.

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part 332 Motion for Clarification. Brainlab argued in its early summary judgment motion that its customers cannot be direct infringers (and thus it cannot be an indirect infringer) because the customers were licensed under the asserted patent by the settlement agreements between Neurografix and MRI manufacturers Siemens, Philips, and GE. The court determined, as a matter of contract, that Brainlab cannot be liable to any infringement (direct or indirect) related to the use of a Siemens MRI machine, but however, it is not so shielded under the Philips and GE agreements. The parties did not brief, not can the court determine from the limited record submitted, whether Brainlab customers that use GE or Philips MRI machines may directly infringe the asserted claims and whether Brainlab may be indirectly liable. This is an issue more appropriately addressed at a later date, when the parties have completed fact and expert discovery. (RGS, int2) (Entered: 08/17/2016)

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part 350 Motion to Compel; denying 353 Motion to Compel. Plaintiff Neurografix seeks to compel defendant Brainlabs to produce discovery related to its accused products. The parties having agreed that Brainlabs's only accused instrumentality is its FiberTracking software, Brainlabs's discovery obligations will be limited to this product (and software bundles to the extent they include FiberTracking). In its first motion (dkt. # 350), Neurografix seeks technical documentation, marketing materials, sales/profits/customer information, and supplementation of Brainlabs's explication of its defenses. The court understands that Brainlabs has produced the source code to FiberTracking for inspection by Neurografix's expert witness, and other technical documents such as user manuals. To the extent that Brainlabs possesses other technical documentation relating to the functionality of FiberTracking, Brainlabs must produce them before January 25, 2017. Brainlabs has represented that it has produced all relevant marketing materials, or that they are publicly available on its website. With respect to sales and profit information, Brainlabs has represented that is has produced all the information that it internally tracks with respect to FiberTracking. To the extent that Neurografix seeks sales and profit information of software bundles, the parties are to first meet and confer regarding the scope of the request. The court denies Neurografix's request for Brainlabs to produce customer contact information. Brainlabs has already produced its customer list for FiberTracking, and as noted by Brainlabs, Neurografix may serve any third-party discovery requests on the customer entity rather than a particular individual. Neurgrafix may identify to Brainlabs, and the parties should first meet and conferm regarding the need for any specific customer contact information. With respect to Brainlabs's explication of its defenses, likewise, Neurografix should identify the specific deficiencies and give Brainlabs an opportunity to remedy them. The court denies Neurografix's second motion (dkt. 353) requesting Brainlabs to identify specific portions of its source code that correspond with various claimed functionality. Brainlabs denies that FiberTracking performs the accused functionality. It is up to Neurografix, and not Brainlabs, to make out the elements of its claims. Brainlabs has represented that its source code, at 20,000 lines, is not unduly lengthy, and that Neurografix's expert has already inspected it over the course of two days. The court also denies the parties' cross requests for sanctions. (RGS, int2) (Entered: 01/11/2017)

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting 396 Motion for Extension of Time. In light of plaintiffs' pending motion to amend the complaint and that plaintiffs have recently engaged new counsel, the court will allow the 90-day extension of the schedule as requested, subject to the following limitation. As fact discovery has been ongoing for several years in this five-year old case, the court will not permit the parties to retrod well-worn grounds. The remaining fact discovery must focus on new issues raised by the proposed complaint and/or any new defenses, or that could not otherwise have been reasonably completed prior to this time. To the extent that the parties cannot agree on the permissible scope of fact discovery, the court will entertain motions on an expedited basis (clarification motions must be no more than five pages, and oppositions to be due in 7 days). Fact discovery to be concluded no later than 8/22/12017; opening expert reports 9/24/2017; rebuttal reports 10/24/2017; reply reports 11/14/2017; expert discovery closes 12/12/2017.

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying 394 Motion to File A Second Supplemental Complaint. Plaintiffs' articulated rationale for seeking an amendment at this late stage (the litigation against the Brainlab defendants having been pending since 2012) is to conform the allegations to new developments in the law of induced infringement and facts obtained in discovery. This is unnecessary in light of plaintiffs' assertion that they "do not believe the operative complaint (Docket No. 52) to be deficient as it pertains to the Defendant BrainLAB Parties," Mot. at 1 n.1, and because the Supplemental Complaint has not been challenged on these grounds. Further, the proposed Second Supplemental Complaint attempts to re-expand the list of accused instrumentalities after the parties had limited the list, following years of discovery, to Brainlab's Fibertracking software. See Dkt. No. 362. Plaintiffs provide no justifications for this belated attempt to undo the lengthy efforts to narrow the dispute.(RGS, int2) (Entered: 07/13/2017)

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting 418 Motion for Protective Order; granting 421 Motion for Protective Order. When the court allowed an extension to the discovery schedule in June of 2017 to accommodate Neurografix's retention of new counsel, given that this case had been pending for more than five years and discovery had been ongoing for several years, it was with the express caveat "[t]he remaining fact discovery must focus on new issues raised by the proposed complaint and/or any new defenses, or that could not otherwise have been reasonably completed prior to this time." Dkt. # 397. Neurografix has been aware of its indirect infringement claim against Brainlab since at least as early as the Supplemental Complaint filed in December of 2013. See Dkt # 52, paras. 85-86 (alleging Brainlab's indirect infringement). The court sees no reason why discovery of Brainlab's customers - the would-be direct infringers and at the core of the indirect infringement claim - could not have been timely completed. The parties are to meet-and-confer regarding the most efficient and effective way to inform Brainlab's customers of the court's protective order, with Neurografix to bear the cost of any such missives.

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting in part and denying in part 423 Motion for Extension of Time; denying 424 Motion for Leave to File Second Supplement Complaint; finding as moot 447 Motion for Leave to File Reply (the court having considered the contents of the proposed reply). The relevant procedural history of this long-pending case can be summarized as follows. In 2012, Neurografix filed suit against Brainlab alleging infringement of the '360 patent. The case was consolidated with others into the current MDL. After extensive discovery, the parties whittled the list of accused instrumentalities down to Brainlab's FiberTracking software. See Dkt # 362. In January of 2017, at the request of both parties, the court extended the pretrial deadlines, expanding the fact discovery period to conclude on May 24, 2017. See Dkt # 364. In June of 2017, to accommodate Neurografix's hiring of new counsel, the court extended the date further, to August 22, 2017, but with the warning that "[a]s fact discovery has been ongoing for several years in this five-year old case, the court will not permit the parties to retrod well-worn grounds. The remaining fact discovery must focus on new issues raised by the proposed complaint and/or any new defenses, or that could not otherwise have been reasonably completed prior to this time." Dkt # 397. On July 13, 2017, the court denied Neurografix's motion to file a Second Supplemental Complaint because, inter alia, the proposed Complaint "attempts to re-expand the list of accused instrumentalities... [and] [p]laintiffs provide[d] no justifications for this belated attempt to undo the lengthy efforts to narrow the dispute." Dkt # 400. With Neurografix's consent, its newly engaged counsel withdrew on August 11, 2017, representing to the court, however, that Neurografix was aware of the remaining deadlines in the case and "fe[lt it] will be able to proceed with remaining fact and/or expert discovery... [and] move forward with the litigation in a satisfactory matter...." Dkt # 409. On August 14, 2017, the court permitted Neurografix's successor counsel, Alex Strauss, to immediately begin participating in the litigation, a month prior to his being sworn in to the District of Massachusetts federal bar. The court also made arrangements for Mr. Strauss to receive early access to electronic filing on CM/ECF. On the final day of fact discovery, without notice to Brainlab, Neurografix's current counsel served surveys and subpoenas on Brainlab's customers, seeking what it contended was evidence necessary to support its indirect infringement claims. On September 6, 2017, the court allowed Brainlab's motion for a protective order, finding that "Neurografix has been aware of its indirect infringement claim against Brainlab since at least as early as the Supplemental Complaint filed in December of 2013. See Dkt # 52, paras. 85-86 (alleging Brainlab's indirect infringement). The court sees no reason why discovery of Brainlab's customers - the would-be direct infringers and at the core of the indirect infringement claim - could not have been timely completed." Dkt # 422.On the following day, September 7, 2017, Neurografix filed the instant motions for leave to file a Second Supplemental Complaint and to extend the discovery schedule. Neurografix relies on what it claims is information that it independently discovered in August of 2017, while it was unrepresented by counsel, which information, according to Neurografix, Brainlab should have earlier produced in response to Neurografix's timely discovery requests. This "newly discovered" information falls into two categories: first, evidence that Brainlabs has provided remuneration, either in entertainment such as dinner and drinks, or payments for consulting, ranging from under $100 to several thousands of dollars, to prominent neurosurgeons; and second, dozens of publicly available articles, including some co-authored by Brainlab employees, describing the use of Brainlab's software in allegedly infringing ways. Out of this Neurografix spins a recycled agency theory. Neurografix alleges that Brainlab, through the meals, drinks, and consulting fees, established a principal-agent relationship with the neurosurgeons, and exerted control over them to practice the asserted method claims while performing brain surgery for Brainlab's benefit. Neurografix's proposed new theory is nothing more than a last-ditch attempt to repackage the inducement claim that it has long alleged but neglected until the close of fact discovery. The so-called agency theory of patent infringement, as developed by the Federal Circuit in Akamai Techs., Inc. v. Limelight Networks, Inc., 797 F.3d 1020, 1022-1023 (Fed. Cir. 2015), is potentially viable where there is no single entity that performs all of the steps of a method claim. In such a circumstance, the Federal Circuit held that all of the steps may be attributable to a single entity as the direct infringer "where that entity directs or controls others' performance, and (2) where the actors form a joint enterprise." Id. at 1022. The agency theory has no application here as Neurografix alleges that "BrainLab intends for Neurosurgeons to carry out each step of Claim 36." Proposed Compl. para. 61 (emphasis added). This is, thus, a classic inducement claim. As the court previous noted, Neurografix has been aware of this claim since at least the First Supplement Complaint filed in December of 2013. Neurografix must face the consequences for its failure to fully develop this claim in the more than three years since. As further grounds, the court will also deny the motion for leave to file a Second Supplemental Complaint because it belatedly attempts to broaden the list of accused instrumentalities.In light of the time it has taken to brief these motions, the court will permit a brief extension of the expert discovery schedule, as follows. Opening expert reports due 10/19/2017; rebuttal reports 11/16/2017; reply reports 12/7/2017; expert discovery closes 1/8/2018; dispositive motions to be filed no later than 2/8/2018; oppositions 3/8/2018; replies 3/29/2018.(RGS, int2) (Entered: 09/28/2017)

Dr. Filler's Verified Supplemental Interrogatories Responses, served on December 27, 2017, will be stricken as untimely. Fact discovery concluded on August 22, 2017. See Dkt. # 397. The court will not preclude plaintiffs from asserting claim 47, as it was included in plaintiffs' infringement contentions of April 7, 2014, and the court sees no evidence of an unequivocal withdrawal. However, as is the court's usual practice, plaintiffs' experts will be limited to offering opinions timely disclosed in their reports pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2)(B).

Judge Richard G. Stearns: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered denying 485 Motion for Reconsideration ; finding as moot 490 Motion for Leave to File Reply (having considered its contents). In its motion for reconsideration, Neurografix contends that various published articles provide evidence of direct and induced infringement. "A motion for reconsideration is not the venue to undo procedural snafus or permit a party to advance arguments it should have developed prior to judgment, nor is it a mechanism to regurgitate 'old arguments previously considered and rejected.'" Biltcliffe v. CitiMortgage, Inc., 772 F.3d 925, 930 (1st Cir. 2014) (citations omitted). "To obtain relief, the movant must demonstrate either that newly discovered evidence (not previously available) has come to light or that the rendering court committed a manifest error of law." Palmer v. Champion Mortg., 465 F.3d 24, 30 (1st Cir. 2006). Neurografix does not identify a "manifest error of law," nor do the articles qualify as newly discovered evidence warranting reconsideration - "there is no showing that the information could not have been obtained through the use of due diligence before the summary judgment motions." Minh Tu v. Mut. Life Ins. Co. of New York, 136 F.3d 77, 82 (1st Cir. 1998). Indeed, Neurografix attached many of the articles as exhibits to its motion for leave to file proposed second amended complaint (which was denied), but did not include on rely on them as part of the summary judgment record. Nor has the court misapprehended the evidence, as Neurografix suggests. Of the two articles that were referenced in the summary judgment pleadings, Neurografix conceded that "Wu and colleagues did not use any BrainLAB products and in fact most of the underlying research was done before BrainLAB began to market the offending product." Pl.'s Opp'n to Def.'s Mot. for Summ. J. of No Lost Profits, Dkt # 464 at 7. The other article, Sivakanthan, was published in 2016, 3 years after the expiration of the asserted patent. Neither article provides material evidence of infringement.The court notes that Neurografix's counsel has apologized to Brainlab's counsel for the overheated rhetoric of its motion, see Opp'n, dkt # 489 at 4 n.1., and cautions counsel for Neurografix, as officers of the court, to take greater care in their pleadings. Allegations of misconduct are a serious matter, and cannot be made lightly.This case (No. 13-10758), along with the other member cases of this MDL, were referred to this court for "coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings." Dkt #1 at 3. These being completed, the court recommends the remand of Brainlab's remaining counterclaim for declaratory judgment of invalidity of the '360 patent, see Brainlab's Answer to Supplemental Complaint, No. 13-10758 Dkt # 42 at 7, to the Northern District of Illinois for trial.
