`
`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`STMicroelectronics, Inc. (“ST Inc.”) opposes Ocean Semiconductor LLC’s (“Ocean”)
`
`Motion for Pre-Trial Consolidation (Dkt. 26) (“Motion”) of seven cases against disparate
`
`defendants (“Defendants”). The Motion is premised on Ocean’s assertion that there are common
`
`questions of fact and law because the seven cases against Defendants allegedly implicate
`
`overlapping patents, foundry partners, manufacturing tools, and tool suppliers. But that premise
`
`is faulty. Ocean’s allegations are directed to seven distinctly-situated defendants, some of whom
`
`fabricate their own semiconductor products and some of whom are “fabless” and use contract
`
`manufacturers to make their products. Ocean’s allegations also involve distinct accused products;
`
`distinct and non-overlapping relationships between each Defendant, the various foundries, and tool
`
`or software suppliers; and distinct facts with regard to direct infringement, indirect infringement,
`
`damages, and willful infringement. In short, the various cases involve very different questions of
`
`fact and law for each of the seven Defendants. Moreover, discovery is likely to yield even more
`
`divergence among the cases, as Ocean has yet to serve its infringement contentions and admits that
`
`its current list of foundries and tool or software suppliers may be incomplete. Ocean’s Motion is
`
`thus premature.
`
`But even based on the current record, no efficiencies would be gained from consolidation.
`
`The Court routinely coordinates schedules and Markman hearings and streamlines discovery
`
`where plaintiffs have asserted the same patents, without the need for formal consolidation. The
`
`primary efficiency sought by Ocean—an extraordinary request for “consolidated briefing,”
`
`including consolidated summary judgment briefing—is inconsistent with the Court’s procedures.
`
`Indeed, Ocean can point to no other case where the Court has ever implemented that requested
`
`approach in other consolidated matters. Granting Ocean’s request would significantly prejudice
`
`Defendants and hamper ST Inc.’s ability to defend itself among six other Defendants who
`
`IPR2021-01342
`Ocean Semiconductor Exhibit 2032
`
`

`

`Case 6:20-cv-01215-ADA Document 28 Filed 06/04/21 Page 5 of 13
`
`manufacture different products in different ways with different tools and software to make
`
`different accused products. On the other hand, denying consolidation would not prejudice Ocean.
`
`Ocean cannot reasonably complain about the work required to prosecute these matters when any
`
`alleged “harm” results entirely from its tactical decision to sue seven Defendants in this Court at
`
`the same time. There is no need for formal consolidation, and Ocean’s request should be denied.
`
`II.
`
`LEGAL STANDARD
`
`In weighing whether to consolidate actions under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 42(a),
`
`courts consider factors such as whether the actions are pending before the same court; whether the
`
`actions involve a common party; whether there is any risk of prejudice or confusion; whether there
`
`might be inconsistent adjudications of common factual or legal questions if the matters are tried
`
`separately; whether there is risk of cost or delay in trying the cases separately; and whether the
`
`cases are at the same stage of preparation for trial. YETI Coolers, LLC v. RTIC Coolers, LLC, No.
`
`1:16-CV-909-RP, 2017 WL 5505325, at *2 (W.D. Tex. Jan. 18, 2017) (citations omitted).
`
`However, “the mere presence of a common question of law or fact does not require consolidation”
`
`but must be balanced against “inconvenience, delay and confusion that might result.” Cont’l Bank
`
`& Trust Co. v. Platzer, 304 F. Supp. 228, 229 (S.D. Tex. 1969). Ocean bears the burden to show
`
`that consolidation is warranted. See Certified/LVI Envtl. Servs., Inc. v. PI Constr. Corp., No. SA-
`
`01-CA-1036, 2003 WL 1798542, *2 (W.D. Tex. Mar. 3, 2003).
`
`III. ARGUMENT
`
`The Court should deny Ocean’s request for consolidation because (1) Ocean cannot meet
`
`the threshold requirement to show common questions of law and fact; (2) pre-trial consolidation
`
`would lead to confusion and prejudice Defendants; and (3) consolidation would not significantly
`
`reduce the time or cost of litigating the cases.

`
`A.
`
`Ocean Fails to Show “Common Question[s] of Fact and Law”
`
`As an initial matter, the Motion should be denied because Ocean cannot meet the
`
`“threshold” showing that the seven cases share “common question[s] of law or fact” to warrant
`
`consolidation. YETI, 2017 WL 5505325, at *2. While Ocean has accused each Defendant of
`
`infringing 7–9 patents, the accused products for each Defendant are different. Ocean’s Complaint
`
`broadly identifies ST Inc.’s “semiconductor products in the communications, internet of things,
`
`automotive, computer, and consumer electronics industry (‘Accused Products’)”—categories that
`
`potentially encompass hundreds of different products. Dkt. 1 at ¶ 7. For the ’305 Patent alone,
`
`Ocean purports to accuse hundreds of disparate ST Inc. products:
`
`advanced driver assistance systems, . . . MEMs and sensor products, . . .
`microprocessors, . . . amplifiers, diodes, rectifiers, comparators, automotive
`devices, clocks and timers, converters, set-top boxes ICs, logic ICs, transceivers,
`memories, drivers, transistors, switches, voltage regulators, systems-on-chip (SoC),
`or similar products for mobile devices, wearables, banking, identification,
`industrial, communications, energy, automotive, personal electronics, sensing,
`cloud, and Internet of Things applications, and similar systems, products, devices,
`and integrated circuits.
`
`Dkt. 1, Ex. N at 1. None of these products overlaps with the hundreds of other purported accused
`
`products relating to the other Defendants. Cf., e.g., Ocean Semiconductor LLC v. MediaTek Inc.,
`
`No. 6:20-1210 (W.D. Tex. 2020), Dkt. 1 at ¶¶ 7, 15 (accusing over 100 other semiconductor
`
`products used in phones, tablets, and networking devices). Ocean also alleges that ST Inc. itself
`
`allegedly designs, develops, sells, offers to sell, and imports products alleged to infringe, while
`
`using foundries such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (“TSMC”)1 and United
`
`Microelectronics Corporation (“UMC”) to allegedly perform the patented methods during
`
`1 Even with respect to TSMC, it is highly unlikely that the factual inquiry will be the same for each Defendant. TSMC
`has facilities across the world, with differing processing capabilities, different tools and methods, and different
`products that are fabricated. Thus, the factual inquiry to establish non-infringement for one Defendant may have no
`bearing on whether another Defendant’s accused products are manufactured using the same method.
`
`IPR2021-01342
`Ocean Semiconductor Exhibit 2032
`
`

`

`Case 6:20-cv-01215-ADA Document 28 Filed 06/04/21 Page 7 of 13
`
`manufacturing of some products. Dkt. 1 at ¶¶ 8, 9. Ocean further alleges that ST Inc. and the
`
`foundries use allegedly infringing semiconductor-manufacturing tools and software, including
`
`ASML’s Twinscan and Yieldstar tools, Applied Materials’ E3 system, PDF Solutions’ Exensio
`
`system, camLine’s LineWorks system, and/or other unnamed “in-house or third-party
`
`advanced/automation process control system and platform hardware and/or software.” See, e.g.,
`
`Dkt. 1 at ¶¶ 10–26.
`
`At a high level, Ocean assumes that common questions of fact and law exist because there
`
`are overlapping patents and all seven Defendants are accused of manufacturing devices through
`
`foundries using allegedly infringing tools or software. However, the fact that validity and
`
`infringement of overlapping patents is at issue in separate actions does not justify consolidation
`
`because Ocean’s infringement contentions remain unique to each Defendant and their individual
`
`circumstances. See, e.g., Fenner Invs., Ltd. v. 3Com Corp., No. CIV.A.6:08-CV-61, 2008 WL
`
`4876816, at *1 (E.D. Tex. Nov. 12, 2008) (denying consolidation where validity and infringement
`
`of same patents were at issue in separate cases); Talon Research, LLC v. Toshiba Am. Elec.
`
`Components, Inc., Case No. 4:11-cv-4819-CW, Dkt No. 70 (N.D. Cal. Mar. 5, 2012) (denying
`
`motion to relate cases involving a single patent because Section 299 of the America Inventions
`
`Act evinces Congress’s intent to not group multiple, unrelated defendants together simply because
`
`they allegedly infringe the same patent). Tellingly, Ocean has made no showing that the various
`
`noninfringement defenses and noninfringement facts that each Defendant will raise will be the
`
`same. For example, Ocean provides nothing to support that the Defendants or their foundries use
`
`the identified tools and software in the same way to make the purportedly accused products.
`
`In YETI, this Court denied a motion to consolidate a set of cases involving drinkware
`
`products with separate cases involving soft-sided coolers even though the plaintiff, RTIC, accused
`
`IPR2021-01342
`Ocean Semiconductor Exhibit 2032
`
`

`

`Case 6:20-cv-01215-ADA Document 28 Filed 06/04/21 Page 8 of 13
`
`the same defendant, YETI, using mirror-image legal claims of patent and trade dress infringement.
`
`2017 WL 5505325, at *1. The Court was not persuaded that there were “common question[s] of
`
`fact and law” “simply because [the cases] involve the same types of claims and the products at
`
`issue happen to be manufactured by the same companies.” Id. at *2. Rather, “the factual inquiries
`
`RTIC believe are common to these cases are actually different inquiries relating to different
`
`products, with different appearances and different designs.” Id.
`
`The holding in YETI applies here, and with greater force given that the parties also differ
`
`across the cases. Some Defendants, such as MediaTek are “fabless” and rely entirely on contract
`
`manufacturers to fabricate their products, while other Defendants, such as ST Inc., sell products
`
`fabricated by other manufacturers as well as affiliated entities. No two cases are alike. For
`
`example, as shown in the table below, each Defendant is uniquely situated as to Ocean’s
`
`combination of infringement allegations relating to fabrication by each Defendant and/or by
`
`foundries (e.g., TSMC, UMC) and use of Applied Material’s SmartFactory and/or camLine’s
`
`LineWorks software. And the table provides just a snapshot of the differences relating to a subset
`
`of Ocean’s infringement allegations across the Defendants.

`
`Moreover, Ocean reserves the right to add infringement theories based on additional
`
`foundries, importers, and tools, suggesting that its Motion is premature and leaving open the
`
`possibility that the cases will diverge even more once Ocean serves its infringement contentions
`
`and discovery progresses. Dkt. 26 at nn. 1, 2. Indeed, Ocean’s Complaint merely alleges that “at
`
`least one claim” of any given patent has been infringed by each Defendant, so it is not at all clear
`
`that the Defendants will be accused of infringing the same claims. See, e.g., Dkt. 1 at ¶¶ 94, 134.
`
`Further, to the extent Ocean is attempting to limit the number of prior art references the Defendants
`
`can rely on, its request is premature because the Court specifies that such narrowing takes place
`
`months after the Markman hearing, not through pre-Markman consolidation. Order Governing
`
`Proceedings – Patent Case Version 3.3 (“OGP”), at p. 9.
`
`Ocean cannot meet its burden to show common questions of fact and law sufficient to
`
`warrant consolidation of the seven cases.
`
`B.
`
`Consolidation Would Lead to Confusion and Prejudice Defendants
`
`Contrary to Ocean’s conclusory statement that there would be “no risk of prejudice or
`
`confusion if the actions are consolidated,” Dkt. 26 at 1, consolidation would prejudice the
`
`Defendants in significant ways. First, Ocean’s request for “consolidated briefing” is inherently
`
`prejudicial because it seeks to impose briefing limits more stringent than what this Court currently
`
`requires. Id. at 6–7. During the parties’ meet and confer, Ocean suggested that its Motion
`
`contemplates summary judgment briefing that would require all seven Defendants to submit a
`
`single summary judgment brief, with a page limit per Defendant that is far less than the Court’s
`
`rules provide for each Defendant in an individual case.2 This request contradicts the Court’s
`
`2 Notably, Ocean provides no authority to support its request that, if consolidated, Defendants should have to file joint
`briefs even for dispositive motions. Cf. Lay v. Spectrum Clubs, Inc., No. 5:12-cv-00754, 2013 WL 788080, at *2
`(W.D. Tex. Mar. 1, 2013) (consolidation “does not merge the suits into a single action or change the rights of the
`parties”).
`
`IPR2021-01342
`Ocean Semiconductor Exhibit 2032
`
`

`

`Case 6:20-cv-01215-ADA Document 28 Filed 06/04/21 Page 10 of 13
`
`explicit procedures, which impose no limit on the number of motions for summary judgment, but
`
`specify a cumulative page limit of 40 pages “per side” for summary judgment briefing. OGP, at
`
`p. 6. The Court notes that if it “consolidates related cases for pretrial purposes, with regard to
`
`calculating limits . . ., a ‘side’ shall be interpreted as if the cases were proceeding individually.”
`
`Under that approach, each Defendant would receive 40 pages of summary judgment briefing. Id.
`
`Ocean’s request for “consolidated briefing” would thus provide ST Inc. and each of the other
`
`Defendants with fewer rights than what a typical defendant in this Court would enjoy. See Dupont
`
`v. S. Pac. Co., 366 F.2d 193, 196 (5th Cir. 1966) (“Where prejudice to rights of the parties
`
`obviously results from the order of consolidation, the action of the trial judge has been held
`
`reversible error.”). The potential prejudice from Ocean’s proposed joint briefing for all Defendants
`
`is particularly acute for ST Inc. As shown in the chart above, Ocean asserts the ’097 Patent against
`
`just two Defendants: ST Inc. and NXP. Defending against Ocean’s allegations will require unique
`
`invalidity, noninfringement, and claim construction arguments specific to the ’097 Patent—issues
`
`that the other Defendants have no incentive to address in any consolidated briefing. Those
`
`circumstances would make it more difficult for ST Inc. to have its arguments heard by the Court
`
`and result in prejudice.
`
`Second, consolidation would complicate discovery and lead to confusion regarding the
`
`disparate positions of the various parties. As the Court found in YETI, consolidation “would lead
`
`to one significantly more complex case, rather than three relatively simple ones.” 2017 WL
`
`5505325, at *3. Here, Ocean has accused hundreds of individual products made by the seven
`
`Defendants. The different combinations of parties, products, foundries, manufacturing
`
`approaches, software, tools, and suppliers in each case mean that different and non-overlapping
`
`facts, evidence, claim constructions, and defenses will develop. Consolidation would also
`
`IPR2021-01342
`Ocean Semiconductor Exhibit 2032
`
`

`

`Case 6:20-cv-01215-ADA Document 28 Filed 06/04/21 Page 11 of 13
`
`complicate fact and expert witness depositions and could lead to testimony about various parties
`
`and issues that would confuse a jury. Consolidation would also require the different Defendants
`
`to participate in discovery—and incur additional and unnecessary discovery costs—for evidence
`
`that may not be relevant to their own products and defenses. See, e.g., Aerotel Ltd. v. Verizon
`
`Comms. Inc., 234 F.R.D. 64, 66 (S.D.N.Y. 2005) (substantial non-overlap of issues would lead to
`
`increased discovery costs). In addition, Western Digital’s two pending IPRs could create
`
`significant confusion in a potential consolidated case. In both IPRs, Western Digital stipulated
`
`that it will not “pursue invalidity on the same grounds in district court” if the PTAB institutes the
`
`IPRs. See IPR No. 2021-00864, Paper 1 at 6; IPR No. IPR2021-00929, Paper 1 at 7. That
`
`limitation does not apply to any other Defendant.
`
`Denying the request for consolidation would not create any prejudice to Ocean. Although
`
`Ocean argues it would be prejudiced because it has already responded to seven different motions
`
`to dismiss pending before this Court, Dkt. 26 at 7, it ignores its own choice to file seven different
`
`complaints against seven different entities.3 Each Defendant is entitled to pursue its own
`
`independent defense and briefing, especially for the fact-specific briefing required when
`
`responding to a motion to dismiss.
`
`Because the risk of prejudice to Defendants is high, but the risk of prejudice to Ocean is
`
`low, consolidation would be improper. See St. Bernard Gen. Hosp., Inc. v. Hosp. Serv. Ass’n of
`
`New Orleans, Inc., 712 F.2d 978, 989 (5th Cir. 1983).
`
`3 Ocean’s argument also ignores its choice to not sue the suppliers, whose tools and modules are the actual targets of
`these allegations, but rather pursue seven different customers in this Court. This tactical decision undermines Ocean’s
`claims of judicial economy.

`
`C.
`
`Consolidation Would Not Significantly Reduce the Time or Cost of Litigation
`
`Ocean contends that consolidation will promote judicial efficiency through consolidated
`
`discovery but does not identify any particular procedures beyond “consolidated briefing” that
`
`would help attain that goal. Mot. at 6–7. In fact, this Court already has procedures in place for
`
`scheduling, discovery, claim construction, and briefing to streamline the disposition of related
`
`cases, and consolidation would not yield any additional efficiencies that would significantly reduce
`
`the time or cost of litigation. For example, the Court may enter a coordinated schedule and hold a
`
`joint Markman hearing, and as discussed above, the Court already imposes consistent limits “per
`
`side” whether or not cases are consolidated. See OGP at p. 2 n.2 (“In the event that the Court
`
`consolidates related cases for pretrial purposes, with regard to calculating limits imposed by this
`
`Order, a “side” shall be interpreted as if the cases were proceeding individually.”). Ocean also
`
`ignores that any efficiency gains would be outweighed by the significant prejudice to Defendants
`
`described above.
`
`Ocean further argues that, without consolidation, “[t]he defendants [] would be able each
`
`to allege a different set of alleged prior art—such that the collective asserted art far exceeds this
`
`Court’s normal per-action limits.” Dkt. 26 at 4. That is simply incorrect. The Court does not
`
`impose any “per-action limits” for Defendants’ initial invalidity contentions. OGP, at ¶ 6. And
`
`the Court already requires parties to meet and confer post-Markman to discuss limiting the number
`
`of prior art references raised at trial. Id. at p. 7.
`
`At bottom, Ocean seeks not judicial economy, but an advantage in litigation by reducing
`
`Defendants’ briefing throughout the litigation, as well as its own workload in pursuing seven
`
`different cases simultaneously. Consolidation would yield no particular efficiencies, but it would
`
`create one massively complex seven-defendant case implicating different parties, products, and
`

`
`

`

`Case 6:20-cv-01215-ADA Document 28 Filed 06/04/21 Page 13 of 13
`
`issues. Under the circumstances, each case should proceed individually under the Court’s current
`
`procedures.
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`
`For the foregoing reasons, the Court should deny Ocean’s request to consolidate.
