`Case 2:16-cv-00260-RFB-VCF Document 46 Filed 10/05/18 Page 2 of 3
`
`WHEREAS Verizon filed on August 17, 2018 a Motion to Transfer Venue to the Northern
`
`District of California Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a), Dkt. No. 72 in the Verizon case. The Motion
`
`to Transfer is fully briefed as of September 11, 2018. VoIP-Pal no longer opposes Verizon’s Motion
`
`to Transfer and the Verizon case was transferred to the Northern District of California on October 1,
`
`2018;
`
`WHEREAS VoIP-Pal filed a separate lawsuit against Twitter, Inc. in this District asserting
`
`the same patents as this litigation. Voip-Pal.com, Inc. v. Twitter, Inc., No. 2:16-cv-02338-RFB-CWH
`
`(D. Nev.). The Twitter case was transferred to the Northern District of California on July 23, 2018;
`
`WHEREAS Voip-Pal has also filed this lawsuit against Apple and separate lawsuits against
`
`Apple, AT&T Corp. and Amazon.com, Inc. in this District. VoIP-Pal.com, Inc. v. Apple, Inc., Case
`
`No. 2:16-cv-00260-RFB-VCF (D. Nev.); VoIP-Pal.com, Inc. v. Apple, Inc., Case No. 2:18-cv-
`
`00953-RFB-GWF (D. Nev.) (“2018 Apple case”); VoIP-Pal.com, Inc. v. AT&T, Inc., No. 2:18-cv-
`
`01129-RCJ (D. Nev.); Voip-Pal.com, Inc. v. Amazon.com, Inc. et al., No. 2:18-cv-01076-MMD-
`
`VCF (D. Nev.). The cases involve similar allegations as this case. Voip-Pal consents to transfer of
`
`this case, and has consented to transfer of the 2018 Apple case and the AT&T Corp. and
`
`Amazon.com, Inc. cases, to the Northern District of California.
`
`IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED that this case is transferred to the United States District Court
`
`for the Northern District of California. The Clerk of Court shall close this case in this District.
`
`This Stipulation is filed in good faith and is not intended to cause unnecessary delay. The
`
`convenience of the parties and witnesses favors transfer to the Northern District of California. And
`
`because the Twitter and Verizon cases were transferred to California, and Voip-Pal consents to
`
`transfer of the 2018 Apple case and the AT&T Corp. and Amazon.com, Inc. cases, it would be
