ORDER
(Re: Docket No. 165)

On December 12, 2012, Plaintiff Solannex, Inc. (“Solannex”) and Defendant MiaSolé, Inc.
(“MiaSolé”) requested that the court enter judgment in favor of MiaSolé and certify the matter for

19
appeal pursuant to Rule 54(b). Without identifying any particular terms or constructions, the
20

parties’ rationale for entering judgment is that based on the constructions adopted by the Court’s

21
Claim Construction Order, Solannex will be unable to establish infringement by MiaSolé of the
22

patents at issue. Such a general explanation is insufficient to support entry of summary judgment.1

23
Therefore,
24
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, no later than December 31, 2012, the parties shall submit
25
a joint letter to the court explaining which particular claim terms and constructions support
26
summary judgment in favor of MiaSolé.
