ALJ Grants In Limine Motions for Both Sides
On July 17, 2009, ALJ Charneski granted one motion in limine filed by complainants and one filed by respondents in Inv. No. 337-TA-648, In the Matter of Certain Semiconductor Integrated Circuits Using Tungsten Metallization and Products Containing Same. With respect to complainants’ motion, ALJ Charneski precluded testimony and exhibits relating to prior litigations and proceedings. ALJ Charneski also granted respondents’ motion in limine to preclude complainants from asserting any claims of infringement under the doctrine of equivalents. ALJ Charneski noted that complainants failed to include an analysis of DOE in the expert report of its technical witness and in interrogatory responses. (PDF)
