`NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION
`TO ALL PARTIES AND THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:
`PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on October 22, 2015 at 8:30 a.m., or as soon
`thereafter as counsel may be heard in Courtroom 10 of the above-entitled Court, located
`at 312 N. Spring Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012, defendant Logic Technology
`Development LLC (“Logic”) will, and hereby does, move for summary judgment,
`pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 56 that Logic does not infringe any asserted claims of U.S.
`Patent Nos. 8,393,331, and 8,490,628, and does not infringe asserted claim 2 of U.S.
`Patent No. 8,365,742 asserted by Plaintiffs Fontem Ventures B.V. and Fontem Holdings
`1 B.V. (“Fontem or Plaintiffs”). For the reasons described in this Motion and the co-
`pending Defendants’ Daubert Motion to Exclude the Testimony of Plaintiffs’
`Infringement Expert Neil Sheehan and PTO Expert John Doll that will, inter alia, seek to
`exclude testimony of Fontem’s infringement expert, Mr. Sheehan, Logic further moves
`for summary judgment of non-infringement of all asserted patents. Defendants CB
`Distributors, Inc. and DR Distributors, LLC (together, “CB/DR”) join in this Motion in
`its entirety. Defendants NJOY, Inc. (“NJOY”), Ballantyne Brands, LLC (“Ballantyne”),
`VMR Products, LLC (“VMR”), FIN Branding Group, LLC and Electronic Cigarettes
`International Group, Ltd. (f/k/a Victory Electronic Cigarettes Corporation), and Spark
`Industries, LLC (“Spark”) join in part (Section V) of the Motion. For the reasons
`described in CB Distributors’ co-pending motion for summary judgment of non-
`infringement, Logic further moves for summary judgment that its accused products do
`not infringe the asserted claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,899,239.
`This Motion is made following the conference of counsel pursuant to Local Rule 7-
`3, which took place on September 8, 2015. Fontem stated that they oppose this Motion.
`This Motion is based upon this Notice and Motion, and the accompanying
`Memorandum of Points and Authorities, Declaration of Victor de Gyarfas and exhibits
`thereto, Statement of Uncontroverted Facts and Conclusions of Law, all pleadings and
`papers on file in this action, and such other matters and arguments as may be presented to
