`Re:

`In re: Apple Inc. Smartphone Antitrust Litigation,
`Civil Action No. 2:24-md-03113
`
`
`Dear Judge Neals:
`
`
`This firm, along with others, represents Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs in this
`multidistrict litigation. I am writing to advise the Court that following the letters from
`the Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs and Defendant Apple, Inc., the parties (including the
`Indirect Purchaser Plaintiffs1) have met and conferred concerning the next steps in this
`litigation. We are confident that those discussions will be productive and we will inform
`the Court of our progress next week.
`
`As always, we remain available at the Court’s convenience.
`
`
`
`
`
`1 Counsel for Plaintiff Whiteside did not participate and is not represented in the Parties’
`discussions as he filed a Notice of Opposition to Conditional Transfer Order No. 1. See
`Whiteside v. Apple Inc., Civil Action No. 5:24-cv-02699-KAW (N.D. Cal.); IN RE: Apple Inc.
`Smartphone Antitrust Litigation, MDL No. 3113 (J.P.M.L.) (ECF No. 120).
