JOINT STATEMENT PURSUANT TO LOCAL RULE 81.2
Plaintiff Apple Inc. (“Apple”) and defendants HTC Corporation, HTC America,
Inc., One & Company Design, Inc. and HTC America Innovation, Inc. (collectively,
“HTC”) submit this Joint Statement in accordance with Local Rule 81.2 (“Cases
Transferred or Removed to This Court”).
This patent infringement case is related to several other currently-pending cases
before this court, including three stayed civil actions: Nos. 10-167-GMS; 10-544-GMS;
and 11-611-GMS (collectively, the “Stayed Actions”). The present case originated in the
United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The Southern District of
Florida granted HTC’s motion to sever and to transfer the action to this court.1 (D.I.
116).
All parties to this action have been served.
HTC filed an answer and first
amended answer in the case prior to transfer to this court on August 3, 2012. (D.I. 102;
1
As explained in the transfer order, the posture of the Florida case was unique: Motorola
Mobility, Inc. originally sued Apple, and Apple, in turn, asserted counterclaims against
plaintiff as well as a second Motorola entity and several HTC entities. (See D.I. 116).
D.I. 115). Apple responded to HTC’s counterclaims on September 7, 2012, and HTC has
recently filed its responsive pleading. (D.I. 132; D.I. 135). The pleadings are now
closed. HTC filed a motion to stay these proceedings on August 31, 2012. (D.I. 129).
At this time, there are no pending matters requiring judicial attention.
