STIPULATION AND ORDER
RELATING CASES
[CIVIL L.R. 3-12 AND 7-12]
STIPULATION
Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 3-12(b) and Civil Local Rule 7-12, Kelora Systems, LLC ("Kelora") and Adobe Systems Incorporated ("Adobe") file this stipulation and proposed order asking the Court to consider whether the following actions are related:
1. This action: eBay Inc. and Microsoft Corp. v. PartsRiver, Inc. and Kelora Systems, LLC, No. 4:10-cv-4947-CW (filed Nov. 2, 2010);
2. New action: Adobe Systems Incorporated v. Kelora Systems, LLC, No. 3:11-cv-03938-WHA (filed August 10, 2011).
3. First-filed case to which this action was previously related by this Court: PartsRiver, Inc., v. Shopzilla, Inc.; Yahoo! Inc.; eBay Inc.; and Microsoft Corporation, No. 4:09-cv-00811-CW (filed Feb. 25, 2009) ("Case No. 09-811").
4. Other actions previously related to Case No. 09-811 per this Court's orders: eBay Inc. v. PartsRiver, Inc. and Kelora Systems, LLC, No. 4:10-cv-5106-CW (filed Nov. 10, 2010); and Microsoft Corp. v. PartsRiver, Inc. and Kelora Systems, LLC, No. 4:10-cv-5108-CW (filed Nov. 10, 2010); Kelora Systems, LLC v. Target Corporation et al., No. 5:11-cv-1548-CW (filed Nov. 8, 2010); Shopzilla, Inc. v. Kelora Systems, LLC, No. 4: 11-cv-00502-CW (filed Feb. 2, 2011); Cabela's Inc. v. Kelora Systems, LLC, No. 3:11-cv-1398 (filed March 23, 2011); Nebraska Furniture Mart Inc. v. Kelora Systems, LLC, No. 4:11-cv-02284 (filed May 10, 2011).
All of the above-referenced actions concern United States Patent No. 6,275,821. The new action filed on August 10, 2011, concerns Kelora, a party to the actions previously related to Case No. 09-811 per this Court's orders. Adobe is a declaratory judgment plaintiff in the new action.
Kelora and Adobe therefore agree that the actions listed above are "related" as defined by Civil Local Rule 3-12(a), and that the new action filed August 10, 2011, should be reassigned to the judge presiding over the first-filed action (Case No. 09-811): Judge Wilken in the Oakland Division.
IT IS SO STIPULATED, THROUGH COUNSEL OF RECORD.
