C/A No. 3:11-cv-00731-JFA
Plaintiff,
vs.
ORDER
AU Optronics Corporation; and
AU Optronics Corporation America.
Defendants.
This case is one of four complaints stayed by the court pending the outcome of a petition
for a writ of certiorari filed in this case. Today, the United States Supreme Court denied that
petition. AU Optronics Corp. v. South Carolina, 12-911, 2014 WL 210665 (U.S. Jan. 21, 2014).
In light of that denial and the Supreme Court’s decision in Mississippi ex rel. Hood v. AU
Optronics Corp., 12-1036, 2014 WL 113485 (U.S. Jan. 14, 2014), a similar case in which the
Supreme Court found no subject-matter jurisdiction, this court hereby lifts the stay and remands
the case to state court as consistent with this court’s prior orders. ECF Nos. 42, 64. The Clerk of
Court shall send a certified copy of this order of remand to the Clerk of the Court of Common
Pleas, Richland County, Fifth Judicial Circuit of South Carolina.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
