`Case 5:20-cv-05676-EJD Document 52-1 Filed 12/28/20 Page 2 of 2
`
`
`
`I, Philip Ou, hereby declare as follows:
`
`1. I am a partner with the law firm Paul Hastings LLP, counsel for the Plaintiff Applied
`
`Materials, Inc. (“Applied”). I have personal knowledge of the facts contained in the declaration
`
`and, if called upon to do so, I could and would testify competently to the matters set forth herein.
`
`2. On December 24, 2020, I informed counsel for Demaray LLC (“Demaray”) that Applied
`
`would be filing a new complaint for declaratory judgment of non-infringement based on the
`
`present-day, substantial controversies between Applied and Demaray. In response, counsel for
`
`Demaray stated that “[t]o the extent that Applied is allowed to file a new case in the Northern
`
`District of California, we agree that it should be assigned to Judge Davila.” The same day,
`
`Applied filed its new complaint, assigned case number Applied Material, Inc. v. Demaray LLC,
`
`No. 3:20-cv-09341 (N.D. Cal.).
`
`3. On December 28, 2020, counsel for Applied twice asked counsel for Demaray to confirm
`
`its agreement that Applied Material, Inc. v. Demaray LLC, No. 5:20-cv-05676-EJD (N.D. Cal.),
`
`and Applied Material, Inc. v. Demaray LLC, No. 3:20-cv-09341 (N.D. Cal.) should be considered
`
`“related cases” under Local Rule 3-12. Counsel for Demaray did not respond to either
`
`correspondence, despite the same counsel exchanging multiple other communications regarding
`
`other matters.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
