Judge O’Conner Issues Costs Decision in Summit 6 v. Samsung

On November 26, 2013, Judge O’Conner entered an Order (available here) in Summit 6 v. Samsung. The Order resolved issues regarding Summit 6’s bill of costs. Summit 6 sought $168,000 in costs; Samsung contended that costs should be taxed at $61,000. The Court sustained Samsung’s objection to costs associated with travel of officers and employees of Summit 6, sustained Samsung’s objection to certain copying costs (resulting in a reduction of such costs by 50%), overruled Samsung’s objection as to electronic discovery costs, sustained Samsung’s objection to trial demonstrative costs, and sustained Samsung’s objections to special-order demonstrative magnets, a Dry Erase board, audiovisual setup, preparation, and “tear down” expenses. Judge O’Conner concluded that Summit 6 was entitled to $78,000 in costs.
