`45 ORDER SETTING TELEPHONIC DISCOVERY HEARING, Telephone Conference
`set for 6/25/2020 10:00 AM before Judge Alan D Albright. Signed by Judge Alan D
`Albright. (am) (Entered: 06/24/2020)
`
`46 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Judge Alan D Albright: Telephone
`Conference held on 6/25/2020. Case called for telephonic discovery hearing. The issue
`from the plaintiff is the scope of the prosecution bar. The Court is basically okay with
`what the plaintiff is proposing however he would like the parties to get together and
`see if they can reach any small changes that are agreed. If so they can submit the new
`proposal − if not each can submit to the law clerk and have another hearing for the
`Court to decide. (Minute entry documents are not available electronically.). (Court
`Reporter Kristie Davis.)(am) (Entered: 06/25/2020)

`
`Text Order DENYING 17 Motion to Dismiss entered by Judge Alan D Albright. In
`light of the Court's order in Slyce Acquisition Inc. v. Syte Visual Conception Ltd., No.
`6:19−cv−257−ADA, 2020 WL 278481 (W.D. Tex. Jan. 10, 2020), the Court does not
`believe this is one of the rare cases where it is appropriate to resolve the Section 101
`eligibility of the patents−in−suit as a Rule 12(b) motion to dismiss. It is therefore
`ORDERED that Defendants' motion is denied WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
`Defendants may refile their motion after the opening of fact discovery. Should
`Defendants elect to refile their motion at that time, the Court orders Defendants to
`brief the patent ineligibility of each asserted claim, i.e., not just representative claims.
`The Court will grant any reasonable request to extend the page limits for such a
`motion.

`
`
`Case: 6:19-cv-00716-ADA As of: 06/14/2021 03:02 PM CDT 11 of 16
`
`To be clear, the Court takes no position on whether claim construction is necessary for
`any of the asserted claims. See MyMail, Ltd. v. ooVoo, LLC, 934 F.3d 1373, 1379
`(Fed. Cir. 2019). Furthermore, the Court takes no position on whether there are any
`factual disputes that preclude dismissal at the pleadings stage. See Aatrix Software,
`Inc. v. Green Shades Software, Inc., 882 F.3 d 1121, 1128−30 (Fed. Cir. 2018). (This
