AGORACOM NEWS FLASH

Dear Agoracom Family,

I want to thank all of you for your patience with us over the past 48 hours and apologize for what was admittedly a botched launch of our new site.

As you can see, we have reverted back to the previous version of the site while we address multiple forum functionality flaws that inexplicably made their way into the launch.

To this end:

1.We have identified 8 fundamental but easily fixable flaws that will be corrected in the coming week, so that you can continue to use the forums exactly as you've been accustomed to.

2.Additionally we will also be implementing a couple of design improvements to "tighten up" the look and feel of the forums.

Sincerely,

George et al

Message: Pacer: e.Digital Corporation v. ArcSoft - order denying motion to stay

The claim construction hearing is scheduled for January 21, 2016. (Id.) On July 1, 2014, e.Digital filed a complaint for patent infringement against Dropcam, Inc. (“Dropcam”) alleging infringement of the same pool of patents at issue in the present case, though the asserted claims vary.

The Stage of Litigation Factor Weighs Against a Stay As pointed out in the introduction, by the time this motion is heard, the case will have been pending for ten months. While no trial date has been set, this Court has set the final pretrial conference for December 5, 2016.

This is because the public policy favoring “expeditious resolutions of litigation” favors allowing litigation to proceed where the grant of a petition for IPR is speculative.“issuing a stay would disrupt the proceedings leading to trial”

a stay would prohibit e.Digital from obtaining any discovery from Arcsoft. This would present a clear and heavy tactical advantage in favor of Arcsoft.Based on the foregoing, this factor weighs heavily against a stay.
