Nov 17, 2021 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The parties submitted a status report on November 12. The main issue addressed is whether to stay Defendants two business tort counterclaims pending a decision on related litigation in another court. The related case was filed before this one, and the status report advises that the court there has a fully-briefed motion under advisement. The parties dispute the relevance of the fully-briefed motion. For various reasons, I would be inclined to grant Plaintiffs request to stay, at least for a while, based on my current understanding. Defendant asserts that Plaintiff forced Defendant to bring the counterclaims here (D.I. 654 at 5), but that makes little sense to me, given that they concern a patent, a product, and an injunction related to the patent and the product entered in the other court. In any event, the result is that there is a lot of overlap between the litigation here and in the other court, and it makes even less sense to me to charge ahead here before the other court rules. So, if Clearone wants to file a motion to proceed, it may do so, but, otherwise, I am just going to wait and see. Ordered by Judge Richard G. Andrews on 11/17/2021. (nms) Modified on 11/17/2021 (nms).
Nov 17, 2021 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The redacted filings (D.I. [659], [672], [673], and [674]) are REJECTED because parts of them are redacted in their entirety. Absent a compelling reason, supported by a statement under oath by a party, redactions in their entirety are impermissible; redactions must be done so as to redact the least possible amount of the materials submitted. Failure to make a good faith attempt at such redactions may result in sanctions, the most common of which would be simply unsealing the entire filing. Redacting in its entirety a document that contains publicly available materials is prima facie evidence of bad faith. Revised redacted filings are DUE within five business days. Ordered by Judge Richard G. Andrews on 11/17/2021. (nms)

Docket Text: REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The Court, having reviewed the parties' letters, (D.I. 548; D.I. 550; D.I. 551), hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) The Court recommends that Defendants Motion for Partial Summary Judgement of No Liability for Certain Alleged False Statements, (D.I. 449), be DENIED AS MOOT. In light of the Courts limited resources, it does not make sense for the Court to adjudicate a motion seeking summary judgment as to claims (i.e., Shure's non-patent claims) that will not be asserted at the upcoming trial or otherwise in this case.; (2) The parties shall meet and confer regarding the appropriate disposition of Shure's non-patent claims (e.g. dismissal with or without prejudice). The Court hopes that the parties can reach an agreement regarding the issue. (D.I. 551 at 2) If the parties cannot come to an agreement, they can raise the issue with the District Court.; (3) By no later than the close of business on September 24, 2021, ClearOne shall advise (by way of a short letter) what portions of its Combined Motion for Summary Judgment of No Lost Profits or Disgorgement for Shure's False Advertising Claims and Motion to Exclude Certain Opinions of Shure Expert Witness Dr. Thomas Vander Veen, (D.I. 447), the Court needs to decide under the above rationale (i.e., that the Court will not be adjudicating issues relating to claims that will not be asserted at trial). Please note that when filing Objections pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b)(2), briefing consists solely of the Objections (no longer than ten (10) pages) and the Response to the Objections (no longer than ten (10) pages). No further briefing shall be permitted with respect to objections without leave of the Court. Objections to R&R due by 10/7/2021. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 9/23/2021. (dlb)

Sep 17, 2021 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Defendant's motion to strike certain opinions of Plaintiffs' expert Paul Hatch ("Motion"), (D.I. [445]), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 446; D.I. 478; D.I. 505), and having considered, inter alia, Federal Rule of Evidence 702 and the principles set out in Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharm., Inc., 509 U.S. 579 (1993) and its progeny, hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) With regard to the request that Mr. Hatch's infringement opinions should be excluded because they rely on an incorrect claim construction, (D.I. 446 at 1-2), the Motion is GRANTED-IN-PART and DENIED-IN-PART in the manner set out in the Court's to-be-filed Report and Recommendation regarding Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment of Non-Infringement.; (2) With regard to the request that Mr. Hatch's opinions on "Gestalt Theory" or "visual perception" should be excluded, (id. at 2-3), it is DENIED. As an initial matter, the Court does not understand or expect that Mr. Hatch will be testifying about "Gestalt Theory." The words "Gestalt Theory" never appear in his expert reports, (D.I. 478 at 4), and to the extent he used the term in his technical tutorial, (D.I. 446 at 2), that tutorial will not be evidence at trial, (D.I. 478 at 4). As for testimony as to how concepts of "visual perception" affect his work as an expert, or how they impact what an ordinary observer would perceive, Mr. Hatch is sufficiently qualified to speak on that topic. He has over 25 years of industrial design experience, (D.I. 473, ex. A at para. 4), and he repeatedly testified about how visual perception is an important concept used by industrial designers--one that he has discussed, researched and presented on for years, (id., ex. A at para. 7; D.I. 478, ex. 4 at 243-44, 249-51; D.I. 478, ex. 7 at 182-84). Moreover, the only paragraph of Mr. Hatch's expert reports that Defendant challenges on this ground is one where Mr. Hatch speaks about how an ordinary observer might find certain design elements to be "primary" or "secondary[,]" (D.I. 446 at 3; D.I. 505 at 1); that language sounds much like the use of the words "prominent" or "noticeable" or "significant," which Defendant's design expert repeatedly uses as well, (D.I. 478, ex. 5 at paras. 60, 62-63, 65, 69, 71, 81, 90, 93). Such testimony is also certainly relevant to the liability issues in the case.; (3) With regard to the request that Mr. Hatch's "copying opinions" be excluded, (D.I. 446 at 4), it is GRANTED-IN-PART and DENIED-IN-PART. To the extent that Mr. Hatch relies on record evidence suggesting that Defendant copied the ornamental aspects of the claimed design, (D.I. 451, ex. 8 at para. 23; id., ex. 5 at paras. 50, 53; id., ex. 10 at paras. 19-23; see also D.I. 446 at 4), the Motion is DENIED. The Court is not convinced that evidence of copying the ornamental aspects of the claimed design would be absolutely irrelevant to the ordinary observer test (because if the facts suggested that the Defendant set out to and actually accomplished the copying of the ornamental aspects of the claimed design, then that might help explain why it is that an ordinary observer would think that the two designs are substantially the same). Plus, evidence of such copying can also be relevant to objective indicia of non-obviousness in a design patent case. See High Point Design LLC v. Buyers Direct, Inc., 730 F.3d 1301, 1312-15 (Fed. Cir. 2013). To the extent that Mr. Hatch relies on record evidence suggesting that Defendant copied functional, unclaimed aspects of Plaintiffs' products (like the internal microphone configuration), (D.I. 451, ex. 8 at para. 63), the Motion is GRANTED. The Court cannot see, and Plaintiffs did not explain, how such evidence could be relevant to the claims and defenses in this design patent infringement case. (D.I. 446 at 4 n.3; D.I. 505 at 2 n.3); (4) With regard to the request that Mr. Hatch's opinion as to the similarity between the Accused Products and the commercial embodiments ("CEs") be excluded, (D.I. 446 at 4-5), it is DENIED. In its opening brief, the basis for Defendant's request was that Mr. Hatch had failed to "support [his] conclusion [that the CEs and the Accused Products were similar] with any comparison of the [CEs]... to the [A]ccused [P]roducts." (Id. at 5) But it is permissible to make this comparison as part of the infringement analysis if the CEs and the claimed design are substantially the same, L.A. Gear, Inc. v. Thom McAn Shoe Co., 988 F.2d 1117, 1125-26 (Fed. Cir. 1993), and Mr. Hatch explains in his expert reports both why he thinks the claimed design and the MXA910, MXA910-A and MXA910-US products (i.e., the CEs) are very similar, (D.I. 451, ex. 8 at paras. 114-19; D.I. 473, ex. B at para. 23), and why the CEs and the Accused Products are very similar, (D.I. 473, ex. B at paras. 22-23, 97-100).; (5) With regard to the request that Mr. Hatch's opinions regarding commercial success and praise be excluded, (D.I. 446 at 5-6), it is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO RENEW before the District Court (e.g., via a motion in limine or in some other fashion). The request turns on whether a nexus between commercial success/praise and the claimed invention can ever be presumed in a design patent case, or, if it can, whether it should so be presumed here, in light of the nature of the CEs and the asserted design patent. (D.I. 478 at 3-4; D.I. 505 at 3-4) Defendant made a good argument for exclusion in its reply brief. (D.I. 505 at 3-4) But because this particular request for exclusion was so sparsely briefed, and because the key issue did not really crystallize until the later stages of briefing, the Court is concerned that Plaintiffs did not have a fair chance to argue the issue.; and (6) With regard to the request that Mr. Hatch's opinions regarding the market/industry be excluded, (D.I. 446 at 6-7), it is DENIED. Although Defendant claims that many of the challenged paragraphs in Mr. Hatch's reports, (see id. at 6 n.5), involve Mr. Hatch stating conclusions that are "not based in fact[,]" (id. at 6), most of those paragraphs actually involve Mr. Hatch referencing record evidence, or Mr. Hatch relying on the opinions of Plaintiffs' market expert, Mr. Weinstein, (D.I. 451, ex. 8 at paras. 21-23, 35, 80-83; id., ex. 5 at paras. 7-13, 24, 52; id., ex. 10 at paras. 8-9, 14-18, 33, 40, 78-79). Other challenged paragraphs relate to industrial design, which is Mr. Hatch's area of expertise. (Id., ex. 8 at paras. 120-24) None of this is objectionable. To the extent Defendant's quarrel is that Mr. Hatch made mistakes and contradicted things that Mr. Weinstein testified to, (D.I. 446 at 6-7; D.I. 505 at 4), that argument reads like an outline for cross-examination, not a basis to exclude testimony. Objections to this Order are due by September 24, 2021 and responses by October 1, 2021. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 9/17/2021. (mlc)

Aug 17, 2021 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiffs' motion to exclude and strike certain testimony of Defendant's market expert Paul Waadevig ("Motion"), (D.I. 439), and the briefing related thereto, (D.I. 440; D.I. 477; D.I. 502), hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) The first portion of the Motion relates to Plaintiffs' request to exclude Mr. Waadevig's opinion on non-infringing alternatives, (D.I. 440 at 3), which is found in paragraph 39 of his responsive expert report ("paragraph 39"), (id., ex. 3 at para. 39). This portion of the Motion is DENIED. In paragraph 39, Mr. Waadevig opines that 11 alternative designs that Defendant proposed for the front face of its accused BMA CT, BMA CTH and BMA 360 products "would generally be commercially acceptable to consumers in the installed audio-conferencing market." (Id.) Pursuant to Fed. R. Evid. 702 and the principles espoused in Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharm., Inc., 509 U.S. 579 (1993), in order for such testimony to be sufficiently reliable, it must be based on recognized methods and procedures, not "subjective belief or unsupported opinion[,]" Schneider ex rel. Estate of Schneider v. Fried, 320 F.3d 396, 404 (3d Cir. 2003); see also Fed. R. Evid. 702 advisory committee's note to 2000 amendments (noting that if an expert witness is relying on his experience in a field to bolster his opinion, he must explain how that experience leads to the conclusion reached" and not simply require the fact finder to "tak[e his] word for it[]") (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). In paragraph 39 itself, Mr. Waadevig did not explain why or how his experience led him to conclude that the products at issue would be commercially acceptable. And during his deposition, he very ill-advisedly made things worse when he responded to a question on this subject by flippantly suggesting that he had "no backing" for the conclusion, and had simply "put [it] in on purpose" because Plaintiffs' expert similarly had "no backing" for many of his opinions in the case. (D.I. 440, ex. 2 at 194) But with all that being said, Mr. Waadevig and Defendant subsequently made clear that this deposition comment was meant in jest. (D.I. 480, ex. 98 at para. 4) More importantly, in paragraph 38 of his responsive expert report, Mr. Waadevig had explained that if a ceiling microphone product has an "invisible" or "near invisible" look when it is flush-mounted to a ceiling, then this could render it a commercially acceptable product for consumers. (D.I. 440, ex. 3 at para. 38) In light of what is in that paragraph, and in light of Mr. Waadevig's further explanation during his deposition, the Court can see how Mr. Waadevig has sufficiently articulated his opinion that the 11 alternate designs (or at least 10 of those 11 designs) for the BMA CT, BMA CTH and BMA 360 products at issue would be commercially acceptable to consumers because they had the aforementioned type of invisible or unobtrusive look when they are installed. (Id; see also id., ex. 2 at 194 (Mr. Waadevig noting in his deposition that the basis for his opinion on commercial acceptability was that 10 of the 11 designs "look[] like something that would be in the ceiling" and "look[] like a HVAC or a speaker"); D.I. 480, ex. 98 at para. 5) Thus, Mr. Waadevig has explained how his experience in this market led to his conclusion on commercial acceptability, such that his opinion is sufficiently reliable to pass muster under Rule 702.; and (2) The second portion of the Motion relates to Plaintiffs' request to strike (pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2)(B)) the portions of Mr. Waadevig's opening expert report wherein he incorporates by reference two other expert reports (the "other material") that he submitted in a related Illinois litigation between the parties. (D.I. 440 at 3-4) This portion of the Motion is GRANTED. Mr. Waadevig's opening expert report in this case does not make clear exactly what portions of the other material he intends to rely on here. (Id., ex. 1 at para. 12) And in his deposition, Mr. Waadevig did not clear things up, as he: (a) acknowledged that he did not mean to incorporate all of this other material into his testimony in this case (only unspecified portions that amount to "background of the [relevant] market"); and (b) said that he could not "recall anything specific" from the other material that he actually did intend to rely on in this case. (Id., ex. 2 at 26) That kind of opacity amounts to "hiding the ball," and is not in line with the letter or the spirit of Rule 26(a)(2)(B). Cf. Sprint Commc'ns Co. LP v. Charter Commc'ns, Inc., C.A. No. 17-1734-RGA, 2021 WL 979307, at *3 (D. Del. Mar. 16, 2021). However, Defendant now appears to have identified the relevant portions of the other material that Mr. Waadevig does mean to rely on in this case. (D.I. 477 at 2 (citing portions of D.I. 479, exs. 91-92)) And it seems unlikely that this material is unfamiliar to Plaintiffs. Thus, the Court further ORDERS that Defendant may timely "supplement [Mr. Waadevig's report] with information from [the other material] that is germane to this litigation."

Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' joint motion to redact the April 28, 2020 transcript from the TRO hearing ("Motion"), (D.I. [288]), notes that: (1) The Motion is almost two months late, but the parties provide no explanation as to why that is.; (2) The Motion requests a significant amount of redactions.; (3) Some of those proposed redactions appear to seek redaction of material that was not redacted in the Court's Report and Recommendation regarding Plaintiffs' request for a TRO (compare D.I. 184 at 8 n.7 (leaving unredacted "Sales of Defendant's BMA CT product are also dwarfed by the MXA910 product's sales) with certain of the proposed redactions on page 135 and page 167 of the hearing transcript).; and (4) The Court has a hard time understanding how certain of the other proposed redactions relate to material that is actually proprietary and confidential (see, e.g., the proposed redactions on page 125, or the second proposed redaction on page 128, or the first proposed redaction on page 135, or the first few proposed redactions on page 167 of the hearing transcript). In light of all this, the Court hereby ORDERS as follows: (1) By no later than August 7, 2020, the parties shall jointly file a revised motion seeking redactions to the April 28, 2020 hearing transcript ("the revised Motion"); (2) the revised Motion will contain an explanation for the parties' delay in filing the original Motion; and (3) the revised Motion shall include a chart that lists every proposed redaction sought in a left-hand-side column, and a detailed explanation of the rationale for the proposed redaction in a right-hand-side column.

Jul 21, 2020 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' discovery dispute motion relating to Defendant ClearOne, Inc.'s ("ClearOne") request that Plaintiffs Shure Inc. and Shure Acquisition Holdings, Inc. ("Shure") be compelled to provide a full response to Interrogatory No. 13 (the "Motion"), (D.I. 260), and the parties' letter briefs relating thereto, (D.I. 266; D.I. 284), and having heard argument on July 20, 2020, HEREBY GRANTS-IN-PART ClearOne's Motion as follows: (1) On the one hand, surely some of the information requested by Interrogatory No. 13 would likely be relevant to ClearOne's defenses and counterclaims for the reasons set out in ClearOne's letter. (D.I. 266 at 1-2); (2) On the other hand, requiring Shure to respond to Interrogatory No. 13 as written would clearly be burdensome to Shure, as is set out in the helpful Declaration of Mr. Schanz. (D.I. 284, ex. C); (3) In light of the competing concerns here (and some of the parties' concessions during oral argument) the Court believes a fair balance would require Shure to provide a response to Interrogatory No. 13 that is further limited to: (a) oral communications (b) made after August 6, 2019 (c) involving some subset of the entire group of employees referenced in the Interrogatory (i.e., those most likely, in light of their position at Shure, to have had the communications at issue) and (d) involving communications made to the customers that ClearOne identified in its response to Shure's Interrogatory No. 3 and/or communications made to any customers regarding the three specific false statements identified in ClearOne's Counterclaims, (D.I. 232 at 11-16). (4) By no later than July 28, 2020, the parties shall meet and confer to attempt to reach agreement with respect to the subset of employees referenced above in (3)(c) and provide a status report to the Court; and by no later than August 18, 2020, absent further order of the Court, Shure shall provide such a supplemental response to Interrogatory No. 13. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 7/21/2020. (dlb)

Mar 12, 2020 N/A Order on Motion for Miscellaneous Relief (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' discovery dispute motion relating to Plaintiffs Shure Inc. and Shure Acquisition Holdings, Inc.'s ("Shure") request that Defendant ClearOne, Inc. ("ClearOne") be compelled to provide a full response to Interrogatory No. 3 as written (the "Motion"), (D.I. 126), and the parties' letter briefs relating thereto, (D.I. 129; D.I. 134), and having heard argument on March 11, 2020, HEREBY GRANTS-IN-PART Shure's Motion as follows: (1) On the one hand, Interrogatory No. 3 as written does seem overly broad in requesting information regarding every single communication between ClearOne "employees, agents, representatives, or others" acting on ClearOne's behalf "regarding the litigations [referenced in the Second Amended Complaint,]" (D.I. 129, ex. A at 11), when Shure's claims concern ClearOne's "misrepresentations to customers and prospective customers about the litigations between the parties[,]" (D.I. 129 at 1). Requiring ClearOne to respond to the Interrogatory as written would surely impose a real burden on ClearOne, (see D.I. 134 at 2-3 & ex. A), though the Court wishes it had more details from ClearOne with respect to the full extent of that burden (and had ClearOne provided more details on the subject, the outcome of this Motion might have been different).; (2) On the other hand, a more fulsome response to Interrogatory No. 3 would also likely produce relevant information, and "ClearOne (not Shure) is uniquely in possession of this information." (D.I. 129 at 3); (3) The Court is mindful that the gravamen of Shure's allegations relating to Interrogatory No. 3 is that "[s]ince at least March 2019" ClearOnes employees "attempted to mislead Shure's customers as to the availability, legitimacy, and viability of Shure's MXA910 product based on the ongoing litigation between the parties." (D.I. 64 at 20); (4) In light of the competing concerns here, the Court believes a fair balance would require ClearOne to provide a response that is limited to (a) communications regarding the impact or effect of the litigations referenced in the Second Amended Complaint on the "availability, legitimacy, and viability" of Shure's MXA910 product that were (b) made on or after March 1, 2019; (5) Accordingly, by no later than April 1, 2020, absent further order of the Court, ClearOne shall provide such a supplemental response to Interrogatory No. 3. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 3/12/2020. (dlb)

Jan 14, 2020 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed the parties' discovery dispute motion relating to Defendant ClearOne, Inc.'s ("ClearOne") request that Exhibit G of Plaintiffs Shure Inc. and Shure Acquisition Holdings, Inc.'s ("Shure") answering brief in opposition to ClearOne's motion to transfer, (D.I. 42, ex. G), be unsealed in its entirety (the "Motion"), (D.I. 78), and the parties' letter briefs relating thereto, (D.I. 79; D.I. 82), and having heard argument on January 13, 2020, HEREBY GRANTS ClearOne's Motion for the following reasons: (1) The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has explained that there is a "presumptive right of public access to pretrial motions of a nondiscovery nature, whether preliminary or dispositive, and the material filed in connection therewith." In re Avandia Mktg., Sales Practice & Prods. Liability Litig., 924 F.3d 662, 672 (3d Cir. 2019) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). The parties agree that in order to overcome this presumption and prevail on ClearOne's motion, Shure would be required to demonstrate that "the material [currently redacted Exhibit G] is the kind of information that courts will protect and that disclosure will work a clearly defined and serious injury to" Shure. Id. (internal quotation marks and citation omitted).; (2) By maintaining this information (which amounts to the specific names of Shure customers to which ClearOne allegedly made misrepresentations about Shure) under seal, Shure wants ClearOne to be prohibited, when subpoenaing these customers, from revealing to them "that Shure has identified them as targets of marketplace misinformation by ClearOne." (D.I. 82 at 3) Yet nowhere in Shure's letter brief does Shure identify with any specificity how it would be subject to a "clearly defined and serious" injury if the third party customers at issue are told that Shure identified them as having been on the receiving end of these misrepresentations. (See id. at 1-3) And in fact, if Shure"s allegations are correct, then: (a) these third party customers already know that they received the communications at issue from ClearOne; and (b) because they will be subpoenaed in a case brought by Shure and questioned about these communications, it is very likely that they will figure out for themselves that Shure identified them in connection with this case.; (3) More broadly, the fact that certain customers allegedly received misrepresentations from ClearOne constitutes the very heart of the allegations in Counts Two through Five of Shure's Second Amended Complaint. (D.I. 64 at 42-70) Thus, it strains credulity to think that this information could remain a secret in this case, which has been filed in a public forum. See Mosaid Techs. Inc. v. LSI Corp., 878 F. Supp. 2d 503, 512 (D. Del. 2012) ("The parties have sought relief in a public forum, and yet their proposed redactions would obscure any discussion of the actual nature of the parties' dispute. There are other forums-such as arbitration-available if parties wish to protect all of this type of information from public view.").; and (4) Lastly (and relatedly), the Court can also understand how maintaining such information under seal might hamstring ClearOne's ability to fairly defend itself against Shure's claims. (D.I. 79 at 3). Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 1/14/2020. (dlb)

Nov 19, 2019 N/A Order on Motion for Leave to File (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Plaintiffs' Motion to File an Amended Pleading ("Motion"), (D.I. 48), and the parties' briefing related thereto, (D.I. 49; D.I. 51; D.I. 52; D.I. 57; D.I. 60; D.I. 61), having heard argument on November 18, 2019, and having considered Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(d) and the factors related thereto, see, e.g., Cellectis S.A. v. Precision Bioscis., Inc., 881 F. Supp. 2d 609, 614 (D. Del. 2012), hereby ORDERS that the Motion is GRANTED for the following reasons: (1) Plaintiffs' Motion seeks leave to file a Second Amended Complaint ("SAC") alleging infringement of a design patent (the " '723 patent") that issued on November 5, 2019. Defendant first argues that Plaintiffs' SAC would be futile because the '723 patent had not yet issued at the time when the Motion was filed (and that the Court thus lacks subject matter jurisdiction over the proposed SAC's new claim relating to the '723 patent). (D.I. 51 at 3) But the '723 patent has thereafter issued as scheduled on November 5, 2019, (D.I. 57 at 1 & ex. 1), and the Courts grant of Plaintiffs' Motion will result in a SAC that is filed no earlier than today, (see D.I. 52 at 1). The Court will therefore have subject matter jurisdiction over the claims relating to the '723 patent. (2) Defendant next argues that Plaintiffs' Motion should be denied because it was filed prematurely for the improper purpose of impeding resolution of Defendant's motion to dismiss and motion to stay. (D.I. 51 at 4) But the Court has already ruled on Defendant's motion to stay (and on an additional stay motion filed by Defendant). And while it is true that the filing of the SAC might require new briefing with respect to Defendant' motion to dismiss, Defendant cites to no authority establishing that this indicates that Plaintiffs filed the Motion with an improper purpose. Indeed, as Plaintiffs point out, such a standard "would make supplementing claims practically impossible." (D.I. 52 at 2) (3) With respect to Defendant's third argument that Plaintiffs' SAC would not promote judicial efficiency, (D.I. 51 at 5), while the filing of the SAC will surely trigger additional motion practice, this is not a basis to deny the Motion. (4) As for Defendant's final argument that Plaintiffs' Motion is now futile in light of Defendant's assertedly "first-filed" declaratory judgment action regarding the '723 patent pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois ("Northern District"), (D.I. 60), the Court disagrees. A judge will ultimately have to decide which of the cases was "first-filed," and by granting this Motion, the Court says nothing about which side has the better of that argument. The "first-filed" decision will be made (either in the Northern District or here) after an appropriate motion is filed and after briefing on that issue is completed.; (5) Plaintiffs are directed to file the SAC on the docket in the instant case either on today's date or at some point thereafter. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 11/19/2019. (dlb)

Nov 1, 2019 N/A Oral Order (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Defendant's Motion to Stay Litigation Pending Inter Partes Review of the Patent-In-Suit, ("Motion"), (D.I. 12), and the parties' briefing related thereto, (D.I. 13; D.I. 20; D.I. 37), having heard argument on October 28, 2019, and having considered the three stay-related factors, hereby ORDERS that the Motion is GRANTED and Plaintiffs' patent infringement claim with respect to United States Patent No. 9,565,493 ("'493 patent") is STAYED until the conclusion of the United States Patent and Trademark Office's Patent Trial and Appeal Board's ("PTAB") inter partes review ("IPR") of all claims of the '493 patent. It is true that the "relationship between the parties" prong of the "undue prejudice" factor weighs against a stay, because the parties are indisputably competitors in the relevant market (for the reasons suggested by Plaintiffs and as the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois has concluded in related matters). (D.I. 20 at 5; D.I. 37 at 4) And that fact alone makes this stay decision a relatively close call. But for the following reasons, the other relevant factors weigh strongly in favor of a stay and thus overcome the impact of the "relationship between the parties" subfactor of the undue prejudice factor. Indeed, with respect to "simplification" factor and the "stage of the litigation" factor, the facts here are about as strong as they can get for a stay pending resolution of IPR proceedings. With all claims of the '493 patent now at issue in instituted IPR proceedings, there is the real prospect that the parties and the Court could engage in a significant amount of pre-trial work, only to have the PTAB end up invalidating all asserted claims (or otherwise issuing decisions that will have a significant bearing on the scope of the patent infringement claim in this matter). (D.I. 13 at 9-10; D.I. 37 at 8-10) And this case is in its infancy. A scheduling order has not yet issued and the "vast majority of the work in this case is yet to come." (D.I. 13 at 8) Moreover, even as to the "undue prejudice" factor, some of the other subfactors help Defendant's case for a stay. Defendant diligently filed its petition for IPR of the '493 patent five months before Plaintiffs commenced this action. (D.I. 13 at 6; D.I. 37 at 1) Thus, the IPR proceeding is well underway, with a final decision expected by August 2020. (D.I. 13 at 7) And Defendant filed its Motion as early as possible, a little over a month after this action was commenced and a week after the PTAB instituted the IPR. (Id.) Lastly, the Court notes that while Plaintiffs asserted during oral argument that the simplification factor would be impacted in their favor by their pending motion to amend the complaint to assert a new design patent in this case ("motion to amend"), (see D.I. 48), that motion is not yet fully briefed and has not yet been adjudicated. Thus, at present, the '493 patent is the only patent at issue in this case. The Court can only consider claims of record in deciding whether the stay factors counsel in favor of a stay. That said, if Plaintiffs' motion to amend is ultimately granted, and Plaintiffs believe that changes the stay calculus, they have the ability to then file a motion to lift the stay. The parties shall jointly notify the Court by letter within 10 days after issuance of a Final Written Decision in the IPR. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 11/1/2019. (dlb)
Nov 1, 2019 N/A Order on Motion to Stay (0)
Docket Text: ORAL ORDER: The Court, having reviewed Defendant's Motion to Stay Discovery Pending Decision on Defendant's Motion to Dismiss ("Motion"), (D.I. 26), and the parties' briefing related thereto, (D.I. 27; D.I. 39; D.I. 44), having heard argument on October 28, 2019, and having considered the three stay-related factors, hereby ORDERS that the Motion is DENIED (as to Plaintiffs' non-patent claims) for the following reasons. (1) The "relationship between the parties" subfactor of the "undue prejudice" factor surely weighs against a stay (for the reasons the Court has said out in the immediately preceding Order) and is significant here. These parties are real, direct competitors in what appears to be a fairly narrow market, and so there is the worrisome prospect of continuing harm (if Plaintiffs non-patent claims are of merit) that may be difficult to later fully address via monetary damages. (D.I. 39 at 4; D.I. 44 at 4) And with respect to other of the undue prejudice subfactors, while Defendant argues that the stay would be "brief" and thus would not unduly prejudice Plaintiffs, the Court has a busy docket and it could take some significant number of months for Defendant"s Motion to be resolved. (D.I. 39 at 10-11); (2) With respect to the "status of the litigation" and "simplification" factors, although it is early in the case and thus that factor favors a stay, the simplification factor is neutral at best. While it is true that if the Court were to grant Defendant's Motion in its entirety, the case would be over, (D.I. 44 at 1), that Motion involves many different arguments about many different types of claims. Even if some arguments made via the Motion are successful, some may not be, and it is thus reasonable to infer that (purely as a statistical matter) there is a decent likelihood that at least a portion of the non-patent case will survive the Motion. See, e.g., Yodlee, Inc. v. Plaid Techs. Inc., Civil Action No. 14-1445-LPS-CJB, (D.I. 57 at 4-6) (D. Del. July 20, 2015).; (3) Thus, the "status of the litigation" factor weighs in favor of a stay, the "undue prejudice" factor weighs strongly against a stay, and the "simplification" factor is about neutral. With the movant not having shown that the equities tilt in its favor, the Court finds that Defendant's Motion should be denied. See, e.g., Toshiba Samsung Storage Tech. Korea Corp. v. LG Elecs., Inc., 193 F. Supp. 3d 345, 353 (D. Del. 2016).; (4) In light of this Order as well as the Courts prior Order granting Defendant's motion to stay Plaintiffs' patent infringement claim with respect to United States Patent No. 9,565,493 ("'493 patent") until the conclusion of the inter partes review of all claims of the '493 patent, the parties shall submit, by no later than November 8, 2019, a proposed Scheduling Order with respect to Plaintiffs' non-patent claims. The proposed Scheduling Order should be consistent with Judge Burke's form Rule 16 Scheduling Order for non-patent cases up through and including paragraph 12 (i.e., regarding the portions of the case schedule through the case dispositive motion stage of the case), and consistent with paragraphs 9-12 of Judge Andrews' Rule 16 Scheduling Order for Non-Patent Cases (i.e, regarding the portions of the case schedule following the case dispositive motion stage). If there are disputed issues between the parties regarding the content of the Scheduling Order, the parties should note those areas of dispute in the proposed Scheduling Order, along with their proposals for the language the Court should adopt as to that issue. In addition, the parties may each separately file a letter (of no more than two single-spaced pages) setting forth their position as to these disputed issues. Both Scheduling Orders can be found on Judge Burke's/Judge Andrews' portions of the District Court website. Ordered by Judge Christopher J. Burke on 11/1/2019. (dlb)
