Netskope, Inc. v. Fortinet, Inc.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
NETSKOPE, INC.,
Plaintiff,
v.
FORTINET, INC.,
Defendant.
Case No. 22-cv-01852-TLT (AGT)
ORDER ON (I) MOTION TO
RESCHEDULE HEARING ON
MOTION TO STRIKE AND (II)
MOTION TO FILE SURREPLY
Re: Dkt. Nos. 310, 312
The Court grants Fortinet’s motion to reschedule the hearing on Netskope’s motion
to strike. Dkt. 312. Because Judge Thompson referred the motion to strike to the under-
signed, a hearing on the motion will no longer take place before her on Tuesday, April 28,
2026, the date on which counsel has a scheduling conflict. The parties shall meet and confer
and select a hearing date after April 24, 2026, on the undersigned’s civil calendar.
The Court grants Fortinet’s motion for leave to file a surreply. Dkt. 310. Netskope
raised new arguments in its reply, or substantially expanded upon arguments mentioned only
in passing in its motion to strike, especially related to diligence, prejudice, and the original
infringement contentions. Compare Mot., Dkt. 283, with Reply, Dkt. 302. Fortinet’s
Case 3:22-cv-01852-TLT Document 321 Filed 04/09/26 Page 1 of 2

proposed surreply reasonably responds to those arguments. Dkt. 310-2. The Court accepts
the surreply.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: April 9, 2026
