ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on the parties’ Joint Motion to Stay.
[Doc. 55].
The parties jointly move for a stay of this case pending the resolution
of the previously filed patent inventorship/ownership lawsuit, Nexus
Technologies, Inc. v. Unlimited Power Ltd., No. 1:19-cv-00009-MR
(W.D.N.C.) (“Nexus”). In Nexus, a jury recently found that Daniel Conti is the
sole inventor of the patents which are also at issue in the present case. In
their motion to stay, the parties state that if the jury’s verdict in Nexus is
upheld, Plaintiff Ravensafe’s infringement claims in the present action will be
moot. As such, the parties request that the Court stay the present matter

pending the resolution of any post-trial motions and appeals in the Nexus
litigation.
For the reasons stated by the parties, the Court will, in the exercise of
its discretion, grant the parties’ Joint Motion.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the parties’ Joint Motion to Stay
[Doc. 55] is GRANTED, and this matter shall be STAYED pending the
resolution of any post-trial motions and appeals in Nexus Technologies, Inc.
v. Unlimited Power Ltd., No. 1:19-cv-00009-MR (W.D.N.C.). The parties
shall have sixty (60) days from the conclusion of the final appeal of the Nexus
matter, or if no appeal is filed, the entry of an Order disposing of any posttrial motions, within which to reopen this matter for further proceedings.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Signed: April 1, 2021
