`
`Related Actions
`
`1.
`
`This case is related to two cases previously consolidated before Judge Stark, 09-
`
`cv-00119 (D. Del.) (LPS) and 11-cv-00260 (D. Del.) (LPS), both of which settled after extensive
`
`dispositive motion practice. This case is also related to the action filed by Arendi today against
`
`Yahoo Inc!, and the actions filed on November 29, 2012 in this District by Arendi, No. 12-1595
`
`(LPS), No. 12-1596 (LPS), No. 12-1597 (LPS), No. 12-1598 (LPS), No. 12-1599 (LPS), No. 12-
`
`1600 (LPS), No. 12-1601 (LPS), No. 12-1602 (LPS), which involve the same patents-in-suit and
`
`common facts..
`
`The Parties and Accused Products
`
`2.
`
`Plaintiff Arendi is a corporation organized under the laws of Luxembourg with its
`
`principal place of business in Luxembourg.
`
`3.
`
`On information and belief, Defendant Google Inc. (“Google”) is a Delaware
`
`corporation with a principal place of business at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View,
`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-JLH Document 1 Filed 05/22/13 Page 2 of 16 PageID #: 2
`
`California 94043. Google has appointed The Corporation Trust Company, Corporation Trust
`
`Center, 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, as its agent for service of process.
`
`4.
`
`Google transacts substantial business, either directly or through its agents, on an
`
`ongoing basis in this judicial district and elsewhere in the United States.
`
`5.
`
`Google makes, uses, imports, offers to sell, and sells (and/or has made, used,
`
`imported, offered to sell, and sold) in the United States and in this judicial district, Gmail,
`
`Google Docs, Google Voice, Google Chat and other products containing the same or similar
`
`information handling technology disclosed in the asserted patents described herein (collectively,
`
`the “Accused Products”).
`
`Nature of the Action
`
`6.
`
`This is a civil action for infringement of United States Patents No. 7,917,843 (the
`
`“‘843 Patent”), No. 7,496,854 (the “‘854 Patent”), No. 6,323,853 (the “‘853 Patent”), and No.
`
`7,921,356 (the “‘356 Patent”). This action arises under the Patent Laws of the United States, 35
`
`U.S.C. § 1 et seq.
`
`Jurisdiction and Venue
`
`7.
`
`This Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this action pursuant to 28
`
`U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1338(a).
`
`8.
`
`Personal jurisdiction is proper in this district because, among other reasons,
`
`Google has a continuous presence in this District, Google committed acts of infringement in this
`
`District and a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to this claim occurred in this
`
`District. Google placed, and continues to place, Accused Products into the stream of commerce,
`
`through an established distribution channel, with the knowledge and/or understanding that such
`
`products are used and sold in this District. This causes injury to Arendi in this District. On

`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-JLH Document 1 Filed 05/22/13 Page 3 of 16 PageID #: 3
`
`information and belief, Defendant derives substantial revenue from the sale of Accused Products
`
`distributed within the District, and derives substantial revenue from interstate and international
`
`commerce.
`
`9.
`
`Venue is proper in this district pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1391(b) and (c), and
`
`1400(b), because Google committed acts of infringement in this district and a substantial part of
`
`the events or omissions giving rise to this claim occurred in this District.

`
`(Infringement of United States Patent No. 7,917,843)
`
`18.
`
`19.
`
`The preceding paragraphs are incorporated by reference as if stated fully herein.
`
`Google has infringed and continues to infringe the ‘843 patent under 35 U.S.C. §
`
`271, including but not limited to claim 1, literally or under the doctrine of equivalents, by
`
`making, using, selling, and/or offering for sale in the United States, and/or importing into the
`
`United States, Accused Products, without authorization. On information and belief, Google has
`
`also infringed and continues to infringe at least claims 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17, 18,

`
`19, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 32, 33, 34, 35, 37, 39, 40, and 41 of the ‘843 patent under 35
`
`U.S.C. § 271, literally or under the doctrine of equivalents, by making, using, selling, and/or
`
`offering for sale in the United States, and/or importing into the United States, Accused Products,
`
`without authorization.
`
`20.
`
`Google’s acts of infringement have caused damage to Arendi and Arendi is
`
`entitled to recover from Google the damages it has sustained as a result of Defendant’s wrongful
`
`acts in an amount subject to proof at trial. Google’s infringement of Arendi’s exclusive rights
`
`under the ‘843 patent have damaged, and continue to damage, Arendi, causing irreparable harm
`
`for which there is no adequate remedy at law, unless the infringement is enjoined by this Court.
`
`21.
`
`In addition to the foregoing and/or in the alternative, third parties, including
`
`Google’s customers, have infringed, and continue to infringe, one or more claims of the ‘843
`
`patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271 by making, using, selling, and/or offering for sale in the United
`
`States, and/or importing into the United States, Accused Products.
`
`22.
`
`Google has had knowledge of and notice of the ‘843 patent and its infringement at
`
`least since the filing of this complaint.
`
`23.
`
`To the extent Google continues to sell or otherwise supply Accused Products after
`
`the filing of this complaint, Google is inducing infringement of one or more claims of the ‘843
`
`patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b), including on information and belief at least the claims set forth
`
`above. Google is actively, knowingly, and intentionally inducing infringement of the ‘843 patent
`
`by practicing the methods set forth therein and by selling, offering to sell and/or importing into
`
`the United States the Accused Products after the filing of this complaint; with the knowledge and
`
`specific intent that third parties, including its customers, will continue to – either alone or in
`
`combination with Google – practice the patented methods, and use, sell, offer for sale, and/or

`
`import the Accused Products supplied by Google to infringe the ‘843 patent; and with the
`
`knowledge and specific intent to encourage and facilitate the infringement through the
`
`dissemination of the Accused Products and/or the creation and dissemination of promotional and
`
`marketing materials, supporting materials, instructions, product manuals, and/or technical
`
`information relating to the Accused Products and infringing uses thereof.
`
`24.
`
`Google’s acts of induced infringement have caused damage to Arendi and Arendi
`
`is entitled to recover from Google the damages it has sustained as a result of Defendant’s
`
`wrongful acts in an amount subject to proof at trial. Google’s induced infringement of Arendi’s
`
`exclusive rights under the ‘843 patent have damaged, and continue to damage, Arendi, causing
`
`irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law, unless the infringement is
`
`enjoined by this Court.
`
`25.
`
`In addition to the foregoing and/or in the alternative, at least since the filing of
`
`this complaint, Google has knowingly contributed to the infringement of one or more claims of
`
`the ‘843 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c).
`
`26.
`
`To the extent Google continues to sell or otherwise supply Accused Products after the
`
`filing of this complaint, Google is contributing to the infringement of one or more claims of the
`
`‘843 patent by third parties, under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c), including on information and belief at
`
`least the claims set forth above. Google is actively, knowingly, and intentionally contributing to
`
`the infringement of the ‘843 patent by selling, offering to sell and/or importing into the United
`
`States Accused Products after the filing of this complaint; with the knowledge that the Accused
`
`Products are especially designed or adapted to operate in a manner that infringes the ‘843 Patent;
`
`with the knowledge that third parties, including its customers, will continue to – either alone or in
`
`combination with Google – practice the patented methods; and with the knowledge that the

`
`
`6
`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-JLH Document 1 Filed 05/22/13 Page 7 of 16 PageID #: 7
`
`infringing information handling technology in the Accused Products is not a staple article of
`
`commerce suitable for substantial noninfringing use.
`
`27.
`
`Google’s acts of contributory infringement have caused damage to Arendi and
`
`Arendi is entitled to recover from Google the damages it has sustained as a result of Defendant’s
`
`wrongful acts in an amount subject to proof at trial. Google’s contributory infringement of
`
`Arendi’s exclusive rights under the ‘843 patent have damaged, and continue to damage, Arendi,
`
`causing irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law, unless the infringement is
`
`enjoined by this Court.

`
`under 35 U.S.C. § 271, literally or under the doctrine of equivalents, by making, using, selling,

`
`50.
`
`Google’s acts of infringement have caused damage to Arendi and Arendi is
`
`entitled to recover from Google the damages it has sustained as a result of Defendant’s wrongful
`
`acts in an amount subject to proof at trial. Google’s infringement of Arendi’s exclusive rights
`
`under the ‘356 patent have damaged, and continue to damage, Arendi, causing irreparable harm
`
`for which there is no adequate remedy at law, unless the infringement is enjoined by this Court.
`
`51.
`
`In addition to the foregoing and/or in the alternative, third parties, including
`
`Google’s customers, have infringed, and continue to infringe, one or more claims of the ‘356
`
`patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271 by making, using, selling, and/or offering for sale in the United
`
`States, and/or importing into the United States, Accused Products.
`
`52.
`
`Google has had knowledge of and notice of the ‘356 patent and its infringement at
`
`least since the filing of this complaint.
`
`53.
`
`To the extent Google continues to sell or otherwise supply Accused Products after
`
`the filing of this complaint, Google is inducing infringement of one or more claims of the ‘356
`
`patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271, including on information and belief at least the claims set forth
`
`above. Google is actively, knowingly, and intentionally inducing infringement of the ‘356 patent
`
`by practicing the methods set forth therein and by selling, offering to sell and/or importing into
`
`the United States Accused Products after the filing of this complaint; with the knowledge and
`
`specific intent that third parties, including its customers, will continue to – either alone or in
`
`combination with Google – practice the patented methods, and use, sell, offer for sale, and/or
`
`import the Accused Products supplied by Google to infringe the ‘356 patent; and with the
`
`knowledge and specific intent to encourage and facilitate the infringement through the
`
`dissemination of the Accused Products and/or the creation and dissemination of promotional and
`
`
`

`
`

`
`marketing materials, supporting materials, instructions, product manuals, and/or technical
`
`information relating to the Accused Products and infringing uses thereof.
`
`54.
`
`Google’s acts of infringement have caused damage to Arendi and Arendi is
`
`entitled to recover from Google the damages it has sustained as a result of Defendant’s wrongful
`
`acts in an amount subject to proof at trial. Google’s infringement of Arendi’s exclusive rights
`
`under the ‘356 patent have damaged, and continue to damage, Arendi, causing irreparable harm
`
`for which there is no adequate remedy at law, unless the infringement is enjoined by this Court.
`
`55.
`
`In addition to the foregoing and/or in the alternative, at least since the filing of
`
`this complaint, Google has knowingly contributed to the infringement of one or more claims of
`
`the ‘356 patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c).
`
`56.
`
`To the extent Google continues to sell or otherwise supply Accused Products after the
`
`filing of this complaint, Google is contributing to the infringement of one or more claims of the
`
`‘356 patent by third parties, under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c), including on information and belief at
`
`least the claims set forth above. Google is actively, knowingly, and intentionally contributing to
`
`the infringement of the ‘356 patent by selling, offering to sell and/or importing into the United
`
`States Accused Products after the filing of this complaint; with the knowledge that the Accused
`
`Products are especially designed or adapted to operate in a manner that infringes the ‘356 Patent;
`
`with the knowledge that third parties, including its customers, will continue to – either alone or in
`
`combination with Google – practice the patented methods; and with the knowledge that the
`
`infringing information handling technology in the Accused Products is not a staple article of
`
`commerce suitable for substantial noninfringing use.
`
`57.
`
`Google’s acts of infringement have caused damage to Arendi and Arendi is
`
`entitled to recover from Google the damages it has sustained as a result of Defendant’s wrongful
`
`acts in an amount subject to proof at trial. Google’s infringement of Arendi’s exclusive rights

`
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-JLH Document 1 Filed 05/22/13 Page 15 of 16 PageID #: 15
`
`under the ‘356 patent have damaged, and continue to damage, Arendi, causing irreparable harm
`
`for which there is no adequate remedy at law, unless the infringement is enjoined by this Court.

`
`together with prejudgment and post-judgment interest, in an amount according to proof and no
