MINUTE ORDER as to Google-Perplexity Subpoena. By December 20, 2024, Perplexity shall disclose the names of three custodians who are and/or were most involved in negotiating the distribution agreements sought by Google. By December 27, 2024, Perplexity shall substantially complete production of the distribution agreements sought by Google, with proposed redactions. Finally, Perplexity shall substantially complete production of the content-licensing agreements and noncustodial documents sought by Google no later than January 8, 2025. While the court recognizes that some of the distribution agreements sought may contain notice provisions, it finds that a production deadline of December 27, 2024 is reasonable in light of the relatively compressed timeline to complete discovery in this matter. Signed by Judge Amit P. Mehta on 12/18/2024. (lcapm2) |
