Opinion
Case No.: 7-CV-3535-LHK
10-28-2011
ORDER SUGGESTING STIPULATED
DISMISSAL
On September 27, 2011, this case was transferred to the undersigned judge. This lawsuit has been docketed since July 6, 2007. Since September 2008, the parties have repeatedly requested continuances of case management conferences pending a final decision from United States Patent and Trademark Office and now the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences. The Court suggests that the parties stipulate to a dismissal without prejudice and to a tolling agreement on the statute of limitations for any damages and counterclaims. By November 18, 2011, the parties shall file a stipulation of dismissal or, if they are unable to do so, file a statement informing the Court why the stay should not be lifted.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
LUCY H. KOH
United States District Judge
