`
`PLAINTIFF REALTIME ADAPTIVE STREAMING LLC’S NOTICE OF
`SUPPLEMENTAL AUTHORITY RE: DEFENDANTS’ MOTIONS TO DISMISS
`
`Plaintiff Realtime Adaptive Streaming LLC (“Realtime”) hereby provides notice that, on
`
`March 7, 2018, a court in Colorado denied a motion to dismiss and a motion for judgment on the
`
`pleadings under §101 of the asserted and related patent at issue here. (Ex. 1 (“[47] Motion to
`
`Dismiss is DENIED”; “[48] Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings is DENIED.”).) The
`
`Colorado case involved the ‘535 patent asserted against Defendants Netflix and Brightcove here,
`
`as well as U.S. Pat. No. 8,867,610 (“’610 patent”), which is related to the ‘535 patent. The ‘535
`
`patent (asserted against Netflix and Brightcove) is related to (and shares the same specification
`
`
`
`Case 1:17-cv-01692-JFB-SRF Document 18 Filed 03/13/18 Page 2 of 2 PageID #: 566
`
`as) the other Fallon patents1 asserted against Netflix and Brightcove. The sole basis for the
`
`Colorado defendants’ motion to dismiss and motion for judgment on the pleadings was their
`
`argument that the ‘535 and the ‘610 patents were patent ineligible under §101.
`
`(See Ex. 2-4.)
`
`After briefing and a hearing, the Colorado court denied both motions. (Ex. 1.) In denying the
`
`motions, the Colorado court considered and rejected some of the same arguments advanced by
`
`Netflix and Brightcove here, e.g., that the ‘535 patent and the other related Fallon patents are
`
`patent ineligible under §101. Like the Colorado court has done, this Court should deny Netflix’s
`
`and Brightcove’s motions to dismiss. (D.I. 11 of Case No. 1:17-cv-01692-JFB-SRF; and D.I. 15
`
`of Case No. 1:17-cv-01519-JFB-SRF.)

`1 The four Fallon patents asserted against Netflix are: U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,934,535; 9,769,477;
`9,762,907; and 7,386,046. The patents asserted against Brightcove include the four Fallon
`patents asserted against Netflix, as well as the following additional Fallon patent: U.S. Pat. No.
`8,929,442. Neither Netflix nor Brightcove has argued that the remaining two asserted patents,
`U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,634,462 and 9,578,298 are patent ineligible.
