ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
v.

Case No. 17-cv-06946-JST
12
As shown in the attached table as Exhibit A, Plaintiff Finjan, Inc. has several active cases
13
14
in this district. The cases assert overlapping claims within the same group of patents. The
15
unmanaged simultaneous litigation of these cases presents the risk of redundant proceedings,
16
inconsistent outcomes, and the inefficient use of judicial and litigant resources.
Accordingly, the parties, and each of them, are now ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why
17
18
this case should not be stayed pending the resolution of the other cases construing identical claims
19
from United States Patent Nos. 7,647,633; 7,975,305; and 8,677,494, as set forth on the attached
20
table.

on this order to show cause on January 2, 2019 at 2:00 p.m.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
