`MOTION TO LIFT STAY
`
`
`
`
`Plaintiff Parallel Networks, LLC (“Parallel”) hereby moves the Court to lift the stay in
`
`each of the above-captioned cases as to claims 1, 5, 8-9, 11-15, 19, 22-23, and 25-28 of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 7,188,145 B2 because the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (the “PTAB”) has denied
`
`the petition for inter partes review of these claims. In further support of this motion, Parallel
`
`states as follows:

`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00827-RGA Document 27 Filed 05/30/14 Page 4 of 12 PageID #: 528
`
`
`1.
`
`On November 11, 2013, Reloaded Games, Inc. (“Reloaded”), defendant in C.A.
`
`No. 13-827-RGA, filed two petitions in the PTO to institute inter partes review (“IPR”) of U.S.
`
`Patent Nos. 7,188,145 B2 (“the ’145 Patent”) and 7,730,262 B2 (“the ’262 Patent”).
`
`2.
`
`On February 5, 2014, the Court stayed each of the above-captioned actions
`
`pending the outcome of the inter partes review.1
`
`3.
`
`Regarding the ’145 Patent, Reloaded petitioned for review of claims 1-36. On
`
`May 16, 2014, the PTAB granted Reloaded’s petition only as to claims 2-4, 6, 7, 10, 16-18, 20,
`
`21, 24, and 29-36 on the alleged ground those claims are obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103. See
`
`Ex. A, Case IPR2014-00136, Paper 15, at 39-40.
`
`4.
`
`The PTAB denied Reloaded’s petition on the following sixteen (16) claims,
`
`despite having been challenged by Reloaded in its petition: 1, 5, 8-9, 11-15, 19, 22-23, and 25-
`
`28. See id.
`
`5.
`
`Regarding the ’262 Patent, on May 16, 2014, the PTAB granted Reloaded’s
`
`petition and instituted inter partes review for claims 1-27. See Ex. B, Case IPR2014-00139,
`
`Paper 16, at 19-20.
`
`6.
`
`Because the PTAB denied Reloaded’s petition with respect to claims 1, 5, 8-9, 11-
`
`15, 19, 22-23, and 25-28 of the ’145 Patent, and these claims are no longer subject to inter partes
`
`review, the stay should be lifted and Parallel allowed to proceed in litigation with respect to these
`
`sixteen claims. Cf. Otto Bock Healthcare LP v. Össur HF, et al., No. 8:13-cv-00891-CJC-AN,
`
`slip. op. at 3 (C.D. Cal. Dec. 16, 2013) (denying stay, finding “petition for inter partes review
`
`encompass[ing] only two of the four asserted claims in [the] case” to weigh against stay) (Order
`
`attached as Ex. C). Indeed, the Court contemplated that the stay would be lifted in the event that
`
`
`1 The Court denied defendant’s motion to stay in related action Parallel Networks, LLC v. Ignite
`Technologies, Inc., C.A. No. 13-1083-RGA. (D.I. 21.)

`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00827-RGA Document 27 Filed 05/30/14 Page 5 of 12 PageID #: 529
`
`
`an IPR was not instituted. See C.A. No. 13-827-RGA, D.I. 25, 2/10/2014 Transcript at 65:11-20.
`
`Just as the case against Ignite Technologies, Inc. was allowed to move forward based on two
`
`patents, the ’911 and ’433 Patents, that were not subject to the Reloaded IPR petitions, so too
`
`should the now stayed cases be allowed to move forward based on the aforementioned claims of
`
`the ’145 Patent as to which the IPR was not instituted. See 2/10/2014 Transcript at 67 (allowing
`
`the case against Ignite to move forward at least “through the initial stages”).
`
`7.
`
`Reloaded and the other defendants claim that lifting the stay would somehow be
`
`“premature” given that Reloaded alleges it “will be filing a follow-on IPR challenging the claims
`
`that were not instituted, and moving to join the two proceedings.” See Ex. D, 5/29/14 Email from
`
`Reloaded’s Counsel to M. Squire. This claim is without merit. Reloaded’s intention to possibly
`
`at some unknown time in the future challenge the claims that were not instituted and, if so,
`
`whether the PTAB will or will not entertain such challenge is too speculative and does not justify
`
`continuing the stay.
`
`8.
`
`On the contrary, continuing to stay these cases while Reloaded purportedly
`
`prepares and files some follow-on petition for inter partes review, and while the PTAB considers
`
`that petition, is fundamentally unfair and would only present a clear tactical advantage to
`
`defendants and unduly prejudice Parallel in its ability to proceed with claims that the PTAB has
`
`already decided are not subject to the inter partes review.
`
`9.
`
` It is uncertain and highly speculative as to when, if ever, Reloaded’s follow-on
`
`petition will be filed. Even if that petition were filed today, Parallel and this Court would likely
`
`have to wait at least another six months for a decision from the PTAB regarding that petition. 35
`
`U.S.C. § 314(b).

`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00827-RGA Document 27 Filed 05/30/14 Page 6 of 12 PageID #: 530
`
`
`10. Moreover, Reloaded is barred from appealing the non-institution decision to the
`
`Federal Circuit. St. Jude Med., Cardiology Div., Inc. v. Volcano Corp., No. 2014-1183, 2014
`
`U.S. App. LEXIS 7731, at *7 (Fed. Cir. Apr. 24, 2014); see also 35 U.S.C. § 314(d). Because
`
`Reloaded would be filing its follow-on petition more than one year after Parallel asserted its
`
`Complaint against Reloaded, (C.A. No. 13-827-RGA, D.I. 1), the only procedural mechanism
`
`available to Reloaded to institute that petition is the inter partes review joinder provision.2
`
`Again, whether joinder of the late-filed petition would be granted is highly speculative, and
`
`maintaining the stay pending a decision on any late-filed petition would only further prejudice
`
`Parallel and impair its right to litigate its claims in this Court.
`
`11.
`
`Continuing to stay these cases while Reloaded seeks serial inter partes reviews
`
`and for the PTAB to consider yet another petition is nothing more than a tactic that would allow
`
`defendants to create further delay that would unduly prejudice Parallel. Reloaded already had a
`
`full and fair opportunity to present the denied claims to the PTAB, and should not be permitted
`
`to engage in the gamesmanship of extending the stay by filing serial inter partes review
`
`petitions. Cf. Voda v. Medtronic Inc., No. 09-95-L, 2011 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 104959, at *8 (W.D.
`
`Okla. Jan. 31, 2011) (“Neither the court nor plaintiff anticipated that defendants would file serial
`
`reexamination requests each time they failed to achieve their objectives at the USPTO. At some
`
`point, the court cannot continue to defer to that body and to the reexamination proceedings at the
`
`expense of this litigation.”).
`
`
`2 35 U.S.C. § 315(b) (“An inter partes review may not be instituted if the petition requesting the
`proceeding is filed more than 1 year after the date on which the petitioner, real party in interest,
`or privy of the petitioner is served with a complaint alleging infringement of the patent. The time
`limitation set forth in the preceding sentence shall not apply to a request for joinder under
`subsection (c)”). That is, the PTO would have to agree to join the new petition with the pending
`petition.

`
`
`Case 1:13-cv-00827-RGA Document 27 Filed 05/30/14 Page 7 of 12 PageID #: 531
`
`
`12.
`
`As Reloaded argued in its Opening Brief in Support of its Motion to Stay, “there
`
`[would be] no prejudice to Parallel in awaiting expertise from the PTO in response to Reloaded’s
`
`[original] IPR Petitions.” (D.I. 13 at 6.) The PTO has now responded, and with its expertise, has
`
`denied inter partes review with respect to claims 1, 5, 8-9, 11-15, 19, 22-23, and 25-28 of the
`
`’145 Patent. Parallel should now be allowed to move forward in litigation with respect to these
`
`sixteen claims. Any serial petition addressing claims already presented to the PTAB must be
`
`seen for what it is, merely tactical, and, therefore, does not warrant a stay. See Fifth Mkt., Inc. v.
`
`CME Grp., Inc., No. 08-520-GMS, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 87334, at *3, *7 n.1 (D. Del. June 19,
`
`2013) (lifting stay pending reexamination where “delays appear to be ‘impermissibly tactical,’
`
`suggesting that a continuation of the stay might result in undue prejudice”). Reloaded should
`
`have presented its very best art in the initial petitions, as acknowledged by Reloaded’s counsel
`
`during oral argument. See 2/04/2014 Transcript at 51:3-6. The fact that it now threatens to
`
`submit additional art shows that either the art is no better than what was submitted, or that
`
`Reloaded violated its obligation to submit the best art and instead has been caught in
`
`gamesmanship. Either way, the equities now lie with Parallel, and Reloaded should not be
`
`allowed to further delay these actions.
`
`In view of the foregoing, Parallel respectfully requests that the Court (a) lift the stay in
`
`each of the above-captioned cases at least as to claims 1, 5, 8-9, 11-15, 19, 22-23, and 25-28 of
`
`the ’145 Patent and (b) convene a common Rule 16 scheduling conference. A proposed form of
`
`order is attached.
