`

`(KLEEH)
`
`
`
`
`ORDER
`On June 28, 2023, the parties submitted their report of
`initial planning meeting [ECF No. 38]. Therein, they advised the
`Court that they were discussing a stipulation related to trying
`the patents-in-suit in the District of Delaware instead of this
`District. The Plaintiffs asserted that this case overlaps with
`other cases in Delaware and that they would dismiss this action
`upon finalizing an agreement with the Defendants. The Defendants
`stated that they had already agreed to proceed in Delaware at the
`Plaintiffs’ request and so this duplicative action should be
`dismissed.
`The Court DIRECTS the parties to submit a joint status report
`
`no later than November 1, 2023, addressing whether they have
`resolved this dispute and whether this action should be dismissed.
`It is so ORDERED.
