Judge Denise J. Casper: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered re: 54 Motion to Stay. Having considered the motion, opposition and counsel's arguments at the September 29, 2014 conference, the Court ALLOWS Toshiba's motion to stay. Considering the relevant factors concerning a motion to stay this case, the Court notes that, despite the litigation about the motion to dismiss, this case is in its infancy; the Court does not conclude that Zond will be prejudiced by a delay of a few months while there is a determination of whether the IPR petitions will go forward; and the IPR matters, if instituted, will likely serve to simplify the issues in this case. Accordingly, In light of the pending IPR petitions and likely timing of a decision about those matters moving forward, the case is stayed until 12/31/14. The parties must file a joint memorandum about the status of the IPR petitions and any need for a further stay no later that 12/15/14. (Hourihan, Lisa) (Entered: 09/30/2014)
