Re: Cordis Corporation v. Medtronic Vascular, Inc., et al.,
C.A. No. 97-550-SLR
Dear Judge Robinson:
Briefing on Cordis’s motion for entry of final judgment (D.I. 145 5) was completed upon
the filing of BSC’s reply brief (D.I. 1470). Pursuant to Local Rule 7.1.4, Cordis respectfully
requests oral argument on its motion.
ln addition, Cordis respectfully requests that oral argument be held promptly. As set
forth in Cordis’s reply brief (D.I. 1467 at 3-5) and as conceded in BSC’s reply (D.I. 1470 at 15),
BSC is relying on the fact that this Court has not decided this motion as a reason for reversing
this Court’s grant of summary judgment of collateral estoppel in the pending appeal in the
Express case, C.A. No. 03-027. Indeed, BSC asks this Court to delay ruling on this motion, so as
to preserve that argument for it on appeal (D.I. 1462 at 6-7; D.I. 1470 at 14-16) A prompt
decision on Cordis’s motion will remove this argument and advance the final resolution of both
this case and the Express case.
Respectfully,
/s/ T yfany Geyer Lydon
