Case No. 13-cv-02013-JST
NOTICE TO PARTIES REGARDING
CLAIM CONSTRUCTION AND
TECHNOLOGY TUTORIAL

v.
GSI TECHNOLOGY, INC.,
Defendant.

12
13

As the parties are aware, the USPTO’s Patent Trial & Appeal Board (“PTAB”) recently

14

initiated inter partes review (“IPR”) of two of the Patents-in-Suit: the ‘839 Patent and the ‘403

15

Patent. GSI recently moved to partially stay this action against those two patents alone. ECF No.

16

92. GSI is also seeking IPR of three other Patents-in-Suit ‒ the ‘128, ‘645 and ‘861 Patents ‒ and

17

expects to file a motion to stay the action against those patents as well if the PTAB grants IPR in

18
19
20

August of this year.
Without arguing the complete merits of the recent or the possible future motion to stay, at

21

tomorrow’s proceeding the parties should prepared to address whether principles of judicial

22

economy warrant continuing the claim construction hearing and/or the tutorial until such time as it

23

is clear which whether, and to what extent, this action will be stayed.

24

IT IS SO ORDERED.
