It appears to the court that the above nine Evolutionary Intelligence cases all involve the

21

same two patents and that efficiency and judicial economy suggest that the cases should be

22

consolidated for all pretrial proceedings through claim construction. Therefore, it is hereby ordered

23

that the parties show cause as to why the cases should not be consolidated for pretrial proceedings

24

through claim construction. The parties may file a stipulation for such consolidation and avoid the

25

need to appear, or, if any party opposes such consolidation, it must file a statement not to exceed 5

26

pages in length no later than Wednesday, July 2, 2014 and appear for a hearing at 9 a.m. on July 11,

27

2014.
