Editorial Summary

AI-assisted editorial summary; not attorney-reviewed. Verify against the opinion itself before relying on any characterization of the holding.

Samsung moved to strike and exclude the testimony and opinions of Plaintiffs' survey expert Dr. Laurentius Marais in their entirety or, alternatively, to exclude opinions purportedly outside his report. Applying the Rule 702 reliability framework, Judge Payne granted the motion only to the limited extent that Dr. Marais relies upon Mr. Humphrey's technical-benefits opinion related to the '389 Patent, and otherwise denied it — leaving the survey testimony largely intact for trial.
