PERSONALWEB TECHNOLOGIES, LLC,

 Plaintiffs, 

 v. 

APPLE INC., 

 Defendant. 

Case No.: 4:14–CV–1683 YGR

ORDER SETTING COMPLIANCE HEARING AND 

CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE

 On September 24, 2014, the Court stayed this case “pending final exhaustion of the inter 

partes review proceedings to which U.S. Patent No. 7,802,310 is currently subject.” (Dkt. No. 131 

at 10.) On March 31, 2015, defendant filed a status report apprising the Court that the Patent Trial 

and Appeal Board has issued a Final Written Decision regarding each of the challenged claims of 

the ’310 patent. (Dkt. No. 132 at 1.) Defendant proposed, consistent with the Court’s September 

24, 2014 Order, that the stay should remain in place “until either PersonalWeb has exhausted its 

appeals, or its time to appeal has expired.” (Id.) 

A compliance hearing regarding the appellate status of the inter partes review proceedings 

on the ’310 patent shall be held on Friday, June 5, 2015 on the Court’s 9:01 a.m. calendar, in the 

Federal Courthouse, 1301 Clay Street, Oakland, California, Courtroom 1. Five (5) business days

prior to the date of the compliance hearing, the parties shall file either: (1) a joint status report 

apprising the Court of the appellate status of the inter partes review decision on the ’310 patent; or 

(2) a one-page joint statement setting forth an explanation for their failure to comply. If 

compliance is complete, the parties need not appear and the compliance hearing will be taken off
