(“Google”) files this notice regarding 2 today’s order by the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in In re Nintendo of 3 America, Inc., et al., No. 2014-132 (Fed. Cir. June 25, 2014), Docket No. 35. In its Nintendo 4 order, the Court of Appeals ruled on a petition for writ of mandamus from Secure Axcess, LLC v. 5 Nintendo of Am. Inc., No. 13-32, 2014 WL 986169 (E.D. Tex. Mar. 7, 2014), which Rockstar cited 6 in its renewed motion to transfer this action to support its argument that defendant-specific 7 damages issues warrant transfer. (Docket. No. 67 at 14 n.19, 15.) The Nintendo Court stated: 8 9 10 11 Secure Axcess nonetheless contends that severance should be denied so that it may pursue, and have its choice of, the highest royalty rate among the defendants. This argument is outweighed, as in Katz, where we held that ‘[a]lthough there may be additional issues involving the defendants in [the customer] action, their prosecution will be advanced if [the plaintiff] is successful on the major premises being litigated in [the manufacturer litigation], and may well be mooted if [the plaintiff] is unsuccessful.’ 909 F.2d at 1464. 12 Nintendo, at 5 (alterations in original).
