`
`Electronics America, Inc. (“Samsung”), Motorola Mobility LLC (“Motorola”), LG Electronics,
`
`Inc. and LG Electronics U.S.A., Inc. (“LG”), and High Tech Computer Corp. and HTC

`
`cv-10608, and 15-cv-10611 (the “Related Cases”) pending final written decisions on inter
`
`partes review (“IPR”) of all asserted claims of U.S. Patent No. 7,149,511 (the “ʼ511 Patent”)

`
`Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 101 (Dkt. 125), which is currently pending before this Court and could
`
`be dispositive for all of the above-captioned cases. In the alternative, Defendants request a
`
`limited stay until August 2016, when the PTAB’s decisions to institute the requested IPRs will
`
`be issued. Defendants further request that discovery be immediately stayed during the
`
`pendency of any briefing of this Motion to save potentially unnecessary discovery costs that
`
`would otherwise be incurred.
`
`Defendants submit herewith a Memorandum of Law in Support of this Motion, which
`
`is incorporated herein by reference.
`
`WHEREFORE, Defendants respectfully request that the Court enter an order staying
`
`the Related Cases pending final written decisions on inter partes review of the ’511 Patent by
`
`the USPTO and a decision on Apple’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings for Failure to
`
`Claim Patent-Eligible Subject Matter Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 101.
