`
`IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
`FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS
`
`
`
`
`
`
`CASE NO. 2:22-cv-00198
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`ADIDAS AG; ADIDAS INTERNATIONAL
`MARKETING B.V.; ADIDAS AMERICA, INC.;
`and RUNTASTIC GMBH
`
`
`
`
`v.
`
`NIKE, INC.,
`
`Plaintiffs,
`
`Defendant.
`
`
`DEFENDANT NIKE, INC.’S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO
`ANSWER OR OTHERWISE RESPOND TO COMPLAINT
`
`
`Defendant Nike, Inc. (“Nike”) hereby moves the Court for an order extending the time for
`
`
`
`Nike to answer or otherwise respond to adidas AG, adidas International Marketing B.V., adidas
`
`America, Inc., and runtastic GmbH’s (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) Complaint for Patent Infringement
`
`(Dkt. 1). The deadline for Nike to answer or otherwise respond to Plaintiffs’ Complaint is currently
`
`August 5, 2022. Nike requests a 21-day extension of time to further investigate and prepare a
`
`response to the Complaint, which would reset Nike’s time to answer or otherwise respond to
`
`Plaintiffs’ Complaint to August 26, 2022. Plaintiffs do not oppose Nike’s request, the request is
`
`not sought for purposes of delay, and the request will not affect any other case deadlines.
`
`Therefore, Nike respectfully requests that the Court extend the deadline for Nike to answer or
`
`otherwise respond to Plaintiffs’ Complaint to August 26, 2022.
