1
Pursuant to Local Rule 3-12 and this Court’s Case Management Order No. 1 entered
2
March 15, 2011 (Dkt. No. 36) (“CMO No.1”), Defendant Apple Inc., a California corporation
3
(“Apple”), submits this Administrative Motion to Consider Whether Cases Should Be Related to
4
give notice of the action Terrell v. Apple Inc., Case No. 11-cv-03416-JCS, filed July 12, 2011 in
5
the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.1
6
The action is related because it contains overlapping claims and calls for determination of
7
multiple questions of fact and law that will be the same or substantially similar as those claimed
8
in the Consolidated Actions. The Terrell complaint is almost identical to the original complaint
9
filed in the now-consolidated Lalo, et al. v. Apple, Inc., et al. action. Accordingly, like the
10
Consolidated Actions, the Terrell action involves allegations that certain software applications
11
that can be downloaded by users to work on iPhone or iPad devices capture and misuse personal
12
identifying information of iPhone and iPad users. Apple is a defendant in each of the actions.
13
The alleged capture and misuse of user information from the devices is claimed in the actions to
14
constitute violations of various statutes and common law principles concerning personal privacy
15
and consumer protection.
16
For the foregoing reasons, assignment of the Terrell action to this Court is likely to save
17
judicial and litigant resources, and it will diminish the likelihood of inconsistent results. In
18
addition, Apple believes that the Terrell action is properly consolidated with these consolidated
19
actions as provided in the Court’s CMO No. 1.
