PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on September 24, 2010 at 9:00 am, in the courtroom of the Honorable Jeremy Fogel, San Jose, California, defendant Apple Inc. ("Apple") will move to dismiss all of Plaintiffs' claims pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Apple moves to dismiss Plaintiffs' claims on the following grounds: (1) Plaintiffs fail to state a claim for violation of the Unfair Competition Law because Apple's actions were not fraudulent; and (2) Plaintiffs fail to state a claim for unjust enrichment because no such cause of action exists in California and because nothing about Apple's actions was "unjust." This motion is based on this Notice of Motion and Motion, the Memorandum of Points and Authorities that follows, the Request for Judicial Notice ("RJN"), and the declaration of Alexei Klestoff filed concurrently herewith, all pleadings and papers filed herein, oral argument by counsel, and such other and further matter that properly may be received by the Court.
