`
`JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
`
`STIPULATION OF PARTIAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT
`OF US. PATENT NO. 5,991,845
`
`Plaintiff Sound View Innovations, LLC (“Sound View”) and defendant Facebook, Inc.
`
`(“Facebook”) (collectively, the “Parties”), by and through their counsel ofrecord, hereby stipulate,
`
`subject to the Court’s approval, to partial summary judgment against Sound View’s claim of
`
`infringement of US. Patent No. 5,991,845 (“’845 Patent”), based on literal infringement and
`
`infringement under the doctrine of equivalents, as set forth in Count One of the Complaint. The
`
`Parties, as grounds therefore, state:
`
`1.
`
`On May 19, 2017, the Court issued a claim construction opinion in which it
`
`declined to adopt either party’s proposed construction of the diSputed claim term “spinning”
`
`recited in the ’845 Patent, and instead construed “spinning” as having its plain meaning. (DI. 100
`
`at 6—9-) On August 10, 2017, following an evidentiary hearing, the Court issued an order
`
`construing the term “spinning” to mean “continuously running while repeatedly trying to acquire
`
`the lock.” (D.I. 162 at 3-5.)
`
`2.
`
`Sound View hereby stipulates, based on the Court’s construction of “spinning,” to
`
`non—infringement (both literal and under the doctrine of equivalents) of the ’845 patent, and to
`
`partial summary judgment against Sound View on its claim of infringement of the ’845 patent as
`
`
`
`

`Case 1:16-cv-00116-RGA Document 182 Filed 09/01/17 Page 2 of 2 PageID #: 3289
`
`alleged in Count One of the Complaint. Sound View expressly reserves its right to appeal the
`
`Court’s construction of “spinning” to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
`
`In the
`
`event the Court’s construction of “spinning” is vacated, reversed, or otherwise modified on appeal,
`
`such that the matter is remanded for further proceedings, the Parties expressly reserve and may
`
`reassert in this litigation all of their respective claims and defenses with respect to the ’845 patent,
`
`except to the extent addressed and resolved by the Court of Appeals.
`
`IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, subject to the approval of the Court, that
`
`the Court shall enter partial summary judgement against Sound View on Count One of the
`
`Complaint alleging infringement of the ’845 patent, based on the representations of the Parties
`
`above. Each Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys” fees in connection with that cause of
`
`action.
