Plaintiff American Navigation Systems, Inc. (“AmNav”) and Defendant Apple Inc. 

(“Apple”) hereby submit this stipulation and proposed order. 

WHEREAS, on March 6, 2015, Apple, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Samsung 

Electronics America, Inc. (collectively “Samsung”), and non-party Google Inc. filed two 

petitions with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”) for administrative inter partes

review of asserted U.S. Patent No. 5,902,347 (“’347 Patent”), numbered IPR2015-00849 and 

IPR2015-00851. 

WHEREAS, “Courts have inherent power to manage their dockets and stay 

proceedings, including the authority to order a stay pending conclusion of a PTO 

reexamination.” Ethicon, Inc. v. Quigg, 849 F.2d 1422, 1426-27 (Fed. Cir. 1988) (internal 

citations omitted); Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. v. LG Elecs., Inc., No. 14–cv–01012–SI, 

2015 WL 545534, at *2 (N.D. Cal. Feb. 9, 2015). 

WHEREAS, Apple urges that it is in the interests of the Parties and the Court to stay 

the above-captioned case pending final resolution of the inter partes review petitions and 

associated proceedings pertaining to the ’347 Patent. 

WHEREAS, AmNav does not oppose a stay that would last until the PTO decides 

whether to institute inter partes review (Dkt. No. 106). 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between AmNav and Apple, 

and subject to the approval of the Court, that:1

1. The entirety of this case shall be stayed pending the decision by the PTO 

whether to institute inter partes review in response to the two petitions. If the PTO institutes 

inter partes review, the stay will continue through final resolution in the PTO; in the event 

that the PTO has not instituted inter partes review within the timeframe set forth by 35 U.S.C. 

§ 314(b), the stay will expire without further action by the Court. All remaining hearings and 

deadlines set forth in the Initial Scheduling Order (Dkt. No. 102) are therefore hereby 

 

1

 Samsung and AmNav filed a substantively identical stipulation and proposed order in their 

case.

2. In the event the PTO (i) denies inter partes review on all petitioned grounds for 

any claim of the ’347 Patent, or (ii) dismisses an inter partes review proceeding in whole or 

in part following institution, AmNav intends to file a motion requesting that the Court lift this 

stay. All briefing and argument pertaining to such a motion shall be conducted according to 

the Federal Rules, Local Rules, and Standing Orders of this Court.
