`PLAINTIFF’S NOTICE OF READINESS
`
`
`
`Plaintiff Ancora Technologies, Inc. (“Ancora”) submits this Notice of Readiness and
`
`respectfully requests a joint case management conference in the above captioned matters.
`
`On June 21, 2019, Ancora filed its Complaint against Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. and
`
`Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (collectively, “Samsung”) alleging infringement of U.S. Patent
`
`No. 6,411,941 (“the ’941 Patent”). Samsung appeared through counsel and filed their Answer on
`
`October 1, 2019.
`
`Also on June 21, 2019, Ancora filed its Complaint against LG Electronics Inc. and LG
`
`Electronics U.S.A., Inc. (collectively, “LG”) alleging infringement of the ’941 Patent. LG
`
`appeared through counsel and filed their Answer on October 25, 2019.

`
`Case 6:19-cv-00385-ADA Document 21 Filed 10/28/19 Page 2 of 4
`
`
`
`
`
`The two matters involve the same plaintiff, Ancora, and the same patent. Accordingly, it
`
`will be both in the interest of justice and more efficient for all parties involved to consolidate these
`
`matters for claim construction, discovery, and any other pre-trial matters the Court deems fit to
`
`address jointly between the two cases. Ancora thus respectfully requests a joint case management
`
`conference with Samsung and LG within the next 30 days, if available.
