`
`
`KARYA PROPERTY MANAGEMENT,
`LLC,
`
`
`
`v.
`
`RESMAN LLC,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Plaintiff,
`
`Defendant.
`
`
`(“Resman”) on April 29, 2020 in Case No. 2:20-cv-134 (the “First Action”). (No. 2:20-cv-134,
`
`Dkt. No. 1.) In the First Action, Resman made allegations that Karya lacked standing to sue
`
`because it had executed a defective assignment to the asserted patent. (No. 2:20-cv-134, Dkt.
`
`Nos. 15, 36.) Subsequently, Karya executed a Confirmatory Assignment and filed a Corrective
`
`Assignment with the USPTO. (Dkt. No. 36-3 at 2, 4.) Karya also filed another suit against Resman
`
`on August 3, 2020 in Case No. 2:20-cv-248 (the “Second Action”). (No. 2:20-cv-248, Dkt. No. 1.)
`
`In the Second Action, Karya filed an Opposed Motion to Consolidate the First Action and the
`
`Second Action. (No. 2:20-cv-248, Dkt. No. 4.)
`
`
`
`Resman makes allegations that Karya did not have standing to sue for infringement of the
`
`asserted patent in the First Action because it had a defective assignment to the patent.
`
`(No. 2:20-cv-134, Dkt. No. 15, 36.) Both sides now request that the Court dismiss the First Action
`
`in favor of the Second Action, implicitly acknowledging that Karya has standing in the Second
`
`
`
`Case 2:20-cv-00134-JRG Document 52 Filed 01/25/21 Page 2 of 2 PageID #: 606
`
`Action. (No. 2:20-cv-134, Dkt. No. 51.) The Court recognizes Karya as having standing to sue
`
`for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 7,636,687.
`
`Accordingly, with respect to the First Action it is ORDERED that:
`
`• The parties’ Joint Stipulation and Motion to Dismiss without Prejudice (Dkt.
`
`No. 51) in Case No. 2:20-cv-134 is GRANTED. Consequently, Civil Action
`
`No. 2:20-cv-00134-JRG is DEMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE;
`
`• Resman’s Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Standing and Duplicative Litigation (Dkt.
`
`No. 36) in Case No. 2:20-cv-134 is DENIED AS MOOT; and
`
`• The Clerk of the Court is directed to CLOSE Civil Action No. 2:20-cv-00134-JRG.
`
`It is further ORDERED that, with respect to the Second Action, the parties’ Joint Motion
`
`to Withdraw Motion to Consolidate Cases (Dkt. No. 32) in Case No. 2:20-cv-248 is GRANTED.
`
`Accordingly, Karya’s Opposed Motion to Consolidate (Dkt. No. 4) in Case No. 2:20-cv-248 is
`
`WITHDRAWN.
