`

`



`
`
`PLAINTIFF FINTIV, INC.’S EMERGENCY MOTION FOR
`REOPENING OF DISCOVERY, TRIAL CONTINUANCE, AND SANCTIONS
`
`Plaintiff Fintiv, Inc. (“Fintiv” or “Plaintiff”)—having learned within the past two weeks of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`critical new evidence suppressed by Defendant Apple Inc. (“Apple” or “Defendant”) in blatant
`
`violation of its discovery obligations—respectfully moves to reopen discovery for the limited
`
`purpose of addressing this new evidence, to continue the June 21, 2022 trial to allow such
`
`discovery to be completed, and for monetary sanctions.
`
`The newly discovered facts—evidenced by a sworn declaration and documentary
`
`evidence—demonstrate that SK C&C d/b/a CorFire (“CorFire”), from which Fintiv acquired the
`
`Patent-in Suit, shared key aspects of its patented mobile wallet technology during at least five in-
`
`person meetings with Apple in 2011 and 2012—three years before Apple launched its infringing
`
`Apple Pay—and that Apple thereafter hired CorFire employees who attended the meetings and
`
`even put one in charge of its Apple Pay and Apple Wallet Management program. During
`
`discovery, Apple not only wrongfully suppressed these facts—which go directly to Apple’s
`
`willfulness in infringing the Patent-in Suit —but also falsely represented to Fintiv and this Court
`
`that no such meetings had occurred.

`
`
`
`Given the urgency of this Motion, Fintiv respectfully requests that the Court order
`
`expedited briefing with Apple’s response due by Wednesday, June 8, 2022. Fintiv waives its right
`
`to a reply and respectfully requests a hearing on or before Friday, June 10, 2022, if possible.
`
`
`
`PROCEDURAL HISTORY & FACTUAL BACKGROUND
`
`On July 14, 2020, Fintiv moved for leave to file a third amended complaint seeking relief
`
`for claims including Apple’s willful infringement relating to pre-suit communications that Fintiv
`
`discovered—and that Apple had failed to disclose—during the course of discovery. Dkt. 139.
`
`This discovery revealed, among other things, that Apple failed to disclose that (1) in 2011 CorFire
`
`met with Apple to pitch and present its mobile wallet secure element technology to Apple’s
`
`engineers and product managers and (2) Apple hired
`
` CorFire’s former m-
`
`Commerce Global Product & New Business Development Manager. Id. at 6-7. After considering
`
`the arguments by the parties, the Court ultimately decided that Fintiv had not shown “good cause”
`
`to add a claim for willful infringement. Importantly, the Court did not make a finding that the
`
`facts Fintiv sought to add were not credible or that Fintiv could not prove Apple had pre-suit
`
`knowledge of the Patent-in-Suit, including to support Fintiv’s indirect infringement claims.
`
`Instead, the Court’s ruling was based on the late addition of a new cause of action and the Court’s
`
`opinion on Fintiv’s ability to prove that specific cause of action, willful infringement, with such
`
`facts. Ex. 1,1 9/1/20 Tr. at 96:12-97:11.1.
`
`Since the conclusion of the September 1, 2020 hearing on Fintiv’s motion for leave, Fintiv
`
`continued diligently searching for evidence of third-party CorFire’s meetings and pre-suit
`
`communications with Apple. After devoting numerous hours to this effort, with little success,
`
`
`1 “Ex. ___” refers to exhibits to the Declaration of Jonathan K. Waldrop (“Waldrop Decl.”), filed
`contemporaneously herewith.

`
`PUBLIC VERSION
`
`
`
`Fintiv finally uncovered several expense reimbursement reports (“T&E Reports”) evidencing
`
`multiple meetings between CorFire and Apple in 2011 and 2012 – almost three years before Apple
`
`Pay launched in September 2014. Those meetings included: (1) a March 17, 2011 meeting
`
`between CorFire’s
`
` and Apple’s
`
` (2) a July 4, 2011 meeting between
`
` and Apple’s
`
`
`
` (3)
`
`a July 25, 2011 meeting between
`
` (4) an October 4, 2011 meeting between
`
` and (5) a January 31, 2012 meeting between CorFire’s
`
`
`
` and Apple at Apple’s headquarters in Silicon Valley. Exs. 2-6.
`
`Eubank, who at the time was CorFire’s Vice President of Channel Sales, recalled the
`
`January 31, 2012 meeting at Apple’s headquarters in Cupertino, California, and specifically
`
`recalled sharing CorFire’s mobile wallet technology, including a presentation about key aspects of
`
`its patented technologies, in an effort to partner with Apple in launching a mobile wallet.
`
`Declaration of George Eubank (“Eubank Decl.”), ¶ 6. Eubank specifically recalled making a
`
`presentation to Apple concerning CorFire’s products and services, including CorPay (CorFire’s
`
`mobile wallet technology) and its secure element chip and widget technologies for mobile wallets,
`
`and although he no longer has a copy of the specific written presentation shared with Apple, Fintiv
`
`was able to locate a presentation that Eubank confirmed was substantially similar to the one
`
`presented to Apple, a copy of which is attached to his Declaration submitted herewith. Eubank
`
`Decl., ¶ 7.
`
`As evidenced in the newly discovered T&E Reports, CorFire’s
`
` attended all
`
`five in-person meetings with Apple in 2011 and 2012. Exs. 2-6. At the time,
`
` CorFire’s
`
`Senior Vice President, Europe & Merchant Accounts. Ex. 7.
`
` left CorFire in 2014, and
`
`since 2015, he has been Apple’s Director of Apple Pay & Wallet Product Management. Id.

`
`PUBLIC VERSION
`
`
`
`Throughout this litigation, Apple failed to disclose, in response to Fintiv’s discovery
`
`requests, these highly relevant and material facts about its repeated communications with CorFire
`
`and its hiring of
`
` (among other former CorFire employees)—facts that were undisputably
`
`in Apple’s possession.2 For example, on March 20, 2020, Fintiv served Interrogatory No. 15
`
`requiring Apple to “[i]dentify the Date(s) when Apple became first aware of the Asserted Patent,
`
`the Related Patents, and the Related Patent Applications.” Ex. 9. In its response,
`
`
`
` Ex. 10.
`
`In fact, however, the newly discovered evidence reveals that Apple learned of at least key aspects
`
`of the patented technology years before this lawsuit was filed. Similarly, on June 22, 2020, Fintiv
`
`served Interrogatory No. 27 requesting that Apple “[d]escribe Your communications with SK
`
`C&C and Your knowledge of SK C&C’s intellectual property (e.g., the Patent-in-Suit) prior
`
`to this Action, including but not limited to, when you first communicated with SK C&C’s former
`
`employee Jason Miller, the circumstances surrounding Your hiring of Mr. Miller from SK C&C,
`
`why You decided to hire Mr. Miller, what Mr. Miller has worked on and continues to work on
`
`during his employment at Apple, and whether Mr. Miller had knowledge of SK C&C’s intellectual
`
`property, including the Patent-in-Suit.” Ex. 11 (emphasis added). Apple’s response to this
`
`interrogatory
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`2 The newly discovered evidence not only strongly supports Fintiv’s willful infringement claim,
`but also refutes Apple’s pending motion for judgment on the pleadings as to pre-suit indirect
`infringement and requires reconsideration of the Court’s decision granting in part motion in limine
`no. 2
`
`
` Ex. 8, 9/24/21 Pretrial Conference Tr. at 51:1-10, 51:24-52:3, 52:18-24.

`
`
`
`
` Ex. 12. Apple’s response
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Id.
`
`Apple’s concealment was not limited to interrogatory responses, but included its document
`
`production as well. On March 23, 2020 and July 24, 2020, Fintiv served on Apple its second and
`
`third sets of Requests for Production of Documents, respectively, seeking: “All Documents
`
`referring to or mentioning SK C&C, its affiliates, related entities, and all other persons acting on
`
`its behalf;” “All Documents referring to or mentioning Mozido Corfire – Korea, Ltd., its
`
`affiliates, related entities, and all other persons acting on its behalf”; and “All Documents reflecting
`
`Your communications with Fintiv and its predecessors, including but not limited to Mozido,
`
`Inc. and SK C&C, prior to December 21, 2018, including for example those through Messrs.
`
`Parker, Nazir, and Ewing regarding the Patent-in-Suit, Related Patents, Related Patent
`
`Applications, Accused Technology, and/or Wallet Cards, and Your knowledge of SK C&C’s
`
`intellectual property (e.g., the Patent-in-Suit)….” Ex. 13, p. 9, Nos. 40-41 (emphasis added); Ex.
`
`14, p. 9, No. 64 (emphasis added). Apple never produced a single document responsive to these
`
`Requests, and, given the new evidence, it strains credulity, to say the least, that no such documents
`
`exist.3 In fact, to take just one example, Apple unquestionably has documents concerning its
`
`the former CorFire employee who attended all five meetings between CorFire
`
`
`3 At least one written presentation discussing CorFire’s patented mobile wallet technology was
`shared at the January 31, 2012 meeting. Eubank Decl., ¶ 7.

`
`
`
`and Apple when CorFire’s mobile wallet technology was discussed—and who is now in charge of
`
`Apple Pay and Apple Wallet.
`
`
`
`Apple served Initial Disclosures on November 14, 2019, and Supplemental Initial
`
`Disclosures on February 27, 2020, July 27, 2020, September 24, 2020, and June 23, 2021. Exs.
`
`15-19. Despite supplementing its initial disclosures four times, Apple again failed to disclose as a
`
`person with knowledge
`
`did disclose
`
`
`
` Apple
`
`
`
` Ex. 19. Apple, however, failed to
`
`disclose that
`
` had attended the March 17, 2011, July 4, 2011, July 25, 2011, and October 4,
`
`2011 meetings with CorFire on behalf of Apple, that
`
` has relevant information regarding
`
`these meetings, or even that the meetings ever occurred. Exs. 2-6.
`
`
`
`ARGUMENT
`
`
`
`The Trial Should be Continued to Allow for Reopening of Discovery
`
`As shown above, the newly discovered evidence shows that during discovery Apple
`
`concealed the fact that it had five meetings with Fintiv’s predecessor CorFire, obtained CorFire
`
`documents about the technology three years before Apple Pay launched with all the key
`
`functionalities described in the CorFire presentation, and even hired CorFire employees who had
`
`attended those meetings. Despite Fintiv’s diligence (diligence this Court acknowledged at the
`
`September 1, 2020 hearing), Fintiv did not discover any of this evidence until very recently and
`
`was unable to produce the evidence in response to Apple’s repeated discovery requests for
`
`information Apple itself already had concerning these matters – which plainly gave Apple the
`
`confidence to continue concealing them.

`
`PUBLIC VERSION
`
`
`
`As a matter of fundamental fairness, and to prevent Apple from profiting from its repeated
`
`discovery violations, Apple should be ordered to produce all documents related to these matters,
`
`including but not limited to the newly discovered meetings, and to produce for deposition
`
`
`
`and any other witnesses who have knowledge of the meetings. See e.g., Sw. Refrigerated
`
`Warehousing 2017 WL 8777365, at *1; Garcia v. Woman’s Hosp. of Texas, 97 F.3d 810 (5th Cir.
`
`1996); Garcia, 97 F.3d at 814.
`
`The requested relief here is critical because Apple’s concealment hamstrung Fintiv in
`
`obtaining highly relevant, if not dispositive, evidence concerning at least infringement, non-
`
`obviousness, credibility of witnesses, damages, and potentially willful infringement. The Apple-
`
`CorFire meetings, CorFire’s presentation to Apple about key aspects of the patented technology,
`
`and the 2010 pending patent application describing that technology constitute powerful evidence
`
`of at least copying and willful infringement. See, e.g., KAIST IP US LLC v. Samsung Elecs. Co.,
`
`439 F. Supp. 3d 860, 884–85 (E.D. Tex. 2020) (upholding jury’s finding of willful infringement
`
`based on presentations by inventor to infringer, infringer’s knowledge that inventor had filed a
`
`patent application, and inventor’s license offer to infringer prior to infringer’s development of the
`
`accused product); Liqwd, Inc. v. L’Oreal USA, Inc., 941 F.3d 1133, 1138-39 (Fed. Cir. 2019)
`
`(copying can be shown by having access to the invention and evidence of copying efforts, even
`
`without evidence that a specific patented product was copied); i4i Ltd. P'ship v. Microsoft Corp.,
`
`598 F.3d 831, 860 (Fed. Cir. 2010), aff'd, 564 U.S. 91 (2011) (plaintiff presented sufficient
`
`evidence at trial to prove willful infringement where, inter alia, infringer reviewed plaintiff’s
`
`materials and attended its presentation of the software, which practiced the technology described
`
`in the asserted patent). This is particularly so given that Apple subsequently hired at least two
`
`CorFire employees
`
`, and suppressed the evidence of the five pre-launch Apple-

`
`
`CorFire meetings during discovery. See Avocent Huntsville, LLC v. ZPE Systems, Inc., 2018 WL
`
`1411100, at *22 (N.D. Cal. 2018) (denying dismissal of willful infringement claim where accused
`
`infringer employed patentee’s former employees); Imperium IP Holdings (Cayman), Ltd. v.
`
`Samsung Elecs. Co., No. 4:14-CV-00371, 2017 WL 1716788, at *3 (E.D. Tex. Apr. 27, 2017)
`
`(defendants’ material misrepresentations in their interrogatory responses and during trial regarding
`
`infringement and willfulness, and failure to produce relevant documents until trial, were
`
`sufficiently egregious to warrant enhanced damages).
`
`Moreover, Rule 16(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides that a scheduling
`
`order may be modified “for good cause and with the judge’s consent.” Fahim v. Marriott Hotel
`
`Servs., Inc., 551 F.3d 344, 348 (5th Cir. 2008) (internal quotation marks omitted). The factors
`
`guiding the “good cause” determination include: “(1) the party’s explanation; (2) the importance
`
`of the requested relief; (3) potential prejudice in granting the relief; and (4) the availability of a
`
`continuance to cure such prejudice.” Green Hills Dev. Co. v. Credit Union Liquidity Servs., LLC,
`
`3:11-CV-1885-P, 2013 WL 12126783, at *2 (N.D. Tex. May 14, 2013); see Sapp v. Mem’l
`
`Hermann Healthcare Sys., 406 Fed. Appx. 866, 869 (5th Cir. 2010) (per curiam) (“no single factor
`
`is dispositive, nor must all the factors be present”). A motion for continuance should be granted
`
`if a party discovers new information or the opposing side failed to produce documents. See Sw.
`
`Refrigerated Warehousing Servs. Joint Venture v. M.A. & Sons, Inc., No. EP-16-CV-00421-DCG,
`
`2017 WL 8777365, at *1 (W.D. Tex. Dec. 20, 2017) (granting motion for continuance where a
`
`party discovered new information and opposing party failed to turn over requested documents);
`
`see also Advanced Display Systems, Inc. v. Kent State Univ., 212 F.3d 1272, 1284-86 (Fed. Cir.
`
`2000) (applying Fifth Circuit law and reversing denial of new trial where a party “deliberately and
`
`intentionally withheld” key evidence pertaining to the issue of obviousness).

`
`PUBLIC VERSION
`
`
`
`Here, the explanation for and importance of the requested relief are plain, and Apple should
`
`not be heard to assert any prejudice because the requested relief is necessitated by its own wrongful
`
`conduct and evidence suppression. In any event, there is no prejudice to Apple because granting
`
`the relief will not change the status quo of Apple’s continuous infringement without paying
`
`Fintiv’s reasonable royalty.
`
`
`
`Fintiv Should be Granted Leave to Amend its Complaint to Allege Claims
`Uncovered During Discovery
`
`As discussed above, discovery related to meetings between the parties in which Fintiv or
`
`its predecessors discussed key aspects of CorFire’s patented, innovative technology is relevant to
`
`numerous issues in this case, including the relationship between the parties, copying, indirect
`
`infringement, willful infringement, witness credibility, and trade secret misappropriation.
`
`Accordingly, Fintiv should be granted leave to amend its complaint to the extent discovery reveals
`
`any new claims. New information learned during discovery provides good cause to amend under
`
`Rule 16. See, e.g., H&R Block Tax Servs., Inc. v. Jackson Hewitt Tax Serv., Inc., No. 6:08CV37,
`
`2008 WL 11265109, at *3 (E.D. Tex. Dec. 23, 2008) (granting motion for leave when plaintiff did
`
`not discover “significant details” until after the deadline); Cornell Univ. v. Illumina, Inc., No. 10-
`
`433-LPS-MPT, 2016 WL 3046258, at *5 (D. Del. May 27, 2016) (finding good cause met where
`
`the party’s new allegations were based on “a new set of facts obtained and confirmed during
`
`discovery which took place after the Scheduling Order’s deadline for amending pleadings”); Sprint
`
`Comms. Co., L.P. v. Time Warner Cable, Inc., No. 11–2686–JWL, 2013 WL 6589564, *2 (D. Kan.
`
`2013) (granting patentee leave to amend to add a claim of willful infringement, even though leave
`
`was sought four months after the deadline to amend pleadings, where patentee showed that before
`
`the deadline the accused infringer had denied all pre-suit knowledge of the patent). Apple, at best,

`9
`
`

`

`Case 1:21-cv-00896-ADA Document 435 Filed 06/13/22 Page 10 of 13
`
`PUBLIC VERSION
`
`
`
`negligently failed to discover and disclose this information earlier, and at worst, knowingly and
`
`willfully ignored its discovery obligations. See, e.g., Pears v. Mobile County, 645 F. Supp. 2d
`
`1062, 1085-86 (S.D. Ala. 2009) (holding that where defendant carefully worded its discovery
`
`responses and pleadings to mislead plaintiff, the behavior constituted good cause to allow plaintiff
`
`to amend his pleadings after the amendment deadline). Indeed, a failure to grant Fintiv leave to
`
`amend would prevent Fintiv from presenting a full infringement case and would require Fintiv to
`
`go to trial on an incomplete record. See LBS Innovations, LLC v. Aaron Bros., Inc., No. 2:11-CV-
`
`142, 2012 WL 12897919, at *2 (E.D. Tex. Nov. 9, 2012) (amendment should be allowed when
`
`“disallowing [it] would deprive Plaintiff of a plausible theory” for relief “and substantive review
`
`of the issues”). Here too, Apple should not be permitted to profit from failing to timely provide
`
`complete discovery of information in its possession.
`
` Monetary Sanctions are Warranted
`
`Based on the above conduct, Fintiv requests monetary sanctions against Apple to cover
`
`Fintiv’s costs for: (1) preparing and filing this motion; (2) cancelling trial accommodations;
`
`(3) litigating motions now mooted or requiring reconsideration; and (4) any other costs the Court
`
`deems just. Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(c)(1)(A) (authorizing the court to order payment of the reasonable
`
`expenses and attorney’s fees caused by the failure to disclose a witness).
`
` CONCLUSION
`
`For the foregoing reasons, Fintiv respectfully requests the Court reopen discovery for the
`
`limited purpose of obtaining documents and depositions from Apple about the 2011 and 2012
`
`Apple-CorFire meetings, continue the currently-scheduled June 21, 2022 trial to a date two weeks
`
`after the completion of such discovery, allow Fintiv to supplement its pretrial disclosures,
`
`including witness and exhibits lists, as appropriate, and award monetary sanctions.
