`
`JOINT MOTION TO CONTINUE EVIDENTIARY HEARING ON LG ELECTRONICS
`INC.’S MOTION TO DISMISS FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
`
`Plaintiff AGIS Software Development LLC (“AGIS”) and Defendant LG Electronics Inc.
`
`(“LGEKR”) hereby file this Joint Motion to Continue this Court’s evidentiary hearing on
`
`LGEKR’s Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction which is set for July 6, 2018, at 9:00 A.M
`
`(Dkt. 144). The parties respectfully request that the hearing originally set for July 6, 2018 be
`
`reset at the Court’s convenience during the week of August 13, 2018 or at such other date
`
`thereafter.
`
`
`
`Good cause supports the requested extension because it would provide sufficient time for
`
`the parties to complete discovery in an orderly fashion on the jurisdictional issues related to the
`
`hearing. Following the Court’s notice setting an evidentiary hearing on LGEKR’s motion, AGIS
`
`requested that LG provide documents relating to how LG’s subsidiaries take possession of the
`
`accused products and requested a deposition of LG’s declarant, JuSeong Ryu. AGIS also issued
`
`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00513-JRG Document 150 Filed 06/22/18 Page 2 of 5 PageID #: 5592
`
`document and deposition subpoenas on two third-party LG subsidiaries, LG Electronics
`
`MobileComm U.S.A. Inc. (“LGEMU”) and LG Electronics MobileResearch U.S.A. LLC
`
`(“LGEMR”) on June 8, 2018.
`
`LGEKR is in the process of collecting documents in response to AGIS’s request, and
`
`third parties LGEMU and LGEMR are cooperating in good faith to complete document
`
`productions in response to AGIS’s discovery requests. Following review of the documents
`
`produced, the parties will proceed diligently to complete the deposition of Mr. Ryu and a
`
`deposition of LGEMU. Both parties have proceeded promptly, diligently and in good faith in
`
`requesting and responding to discovery, but are unable to complete that discovery in an orderly
`
`fashion under the current schedule.
`
`In addition, counsel for AGIS is unavailable due to pre-existing trial commitments from
`
`mid-July to early August, and therefore has requested that the evidentiary hearing be reset for no
`
`earlier than the week of August 13, 2018.
`
`
`
`For the foregoing reasons, the parties respectfully submit that the Joint Motion to
`
`Continue the Evidentiary Hearing on LGEKR’s Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction
`
`should be granted.
`

`
`
`Dated: June 22, 2018
