`STIPULATED ORDER TEMPORARILY STAYING CASE
`
`The Court takes judicial notice of the pendency of Civil Action No. 4:13-cv-01300-JSW
`
`
`
`in the Northern District of California (“California Action”), a patent infringement action in
`
`which all parties in this case are also parties, which has been pending since 2011 and involves
`
`assertion of a patent that is related to the patent-in-suit in this action. The Court has further been
`
`advised by the parties that resolution of the California Action is likely to assist the parties in
`
`resolving this case, thereby potentially conserving judicial and party resources. Accordingly,
`
`upon the below stipulation of the parties, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
`
`1.
`
`2.
`
`This case is stayed until further order of the Court.
`
`Briefing and decision on Defendant's pending Motion to Dismiss Pursuant to Fed.
`
`R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1) or, in the Alternative, Motion to Stay (Dkt. No. 12) (“Defendant’s Motion”) is
`
`hereby deferred until further order of the Court after the stay is lifted. Plaintiff need not file
`
`papers responding to Defendant’s Motion until further order of the Court.
`
`
`
`3.
`
`During the stay, any party may petition the Court for a status conference to
`
`discuss lifting the stay or to set a briefing schedule regarding any request to lift the stay.

`
`4.
`
`The parties shall jointly keep the Court informed as to events in the California
`
`Action impacting the stay in this case including through joint filings to be submitted to the Court
`
`no less frequently than every 90 days. Furthermore, and to the extent it is not lifted earlier, unless
`
`the parties specifically agree or this Court orders otherwise, the stay will be lifted when a
`
`decision, order or judgment from which an appeal lies is given in the California Action, at the
`
`time at which an immediate right to appeal exists.
`
`
`
`5.
`
`Neither the below stipulation, the entry of this order, nor the stay themselves,
`
`individually or collectively, may be used against Plaintiff in any way, including but not limited
`
`to in support of Defendant’s Motion, in support of an argument that the Court does not have
`
`Declaratory Judgment jurisdiction over this case, or in support of any request to transfer this
`
`action to any other court.
`
`6.
`
`Neither the below stipulation, the entry of this order, nor the stay themselves,
`
`individually or collectively, may be used against Defendant in any way, including but not limited
`
`to in support of any argument that the Court has Declaratory Judgment jurisdiction over this
`
`case, or in support of or in opposition to any request to transfer this action to any other court;
`
`and the stipulation, the entry of this order and the stay shall not themselves, individually or
`
`collectively, constitute an acknowledgment by Defendant that the Court has Declaratory
`
`Judgment jurisdiction over this case or that venue is appropriate in the Eastern District of
`
`Michigan.
`
`
`
`SO ORDERED.
