United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALEKSANDR L. YUFA,

Plaintiff,

v.

PARTICLE MEASURING SYSTEMS, 

INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 09-cv-01388-PJH 

ORDER CONTINUING STAY

Re: Dkt. Nos. 102, 103

On February 18, 2015, the court granted a stay in this case based on the 

possibility of the patents-in-suit being assigned to a receiver and sold at auction in order 

to satisfy a judgment in another suit involving plaintiff. Dkt. 90. Since then, the parties 

have filed status reports every six months seeking to continue the stay; the court has 

repeatedly ordered the stay to continue as the appointment of a receiver was appealed. 

Dkt. 92, 95, 98, 101.

On April 7, 2017, pro se plaintiff Alexsandr Yufa filed an updated status statement 

requesting that the court continue the stay. Dkt. 102. In Yufa v. TSI Incorporated, No. 

4:09-cv-1315 KAW, the Federal Circuit has now affirmed the order to appoint a receiver 

for Yufa’s patents. Id. Dkt. 250. However, no assignment has yet taken place. 

Defendant Particle Measuring Systems, Inc. agrees that an additional stay is appropriate. 

Dkt. 103.

The court agrees that the stay should remain in place. The parties shall file an 

updated status statement no later than six months from the date of this order, apprising 

the court as to whether the patents have been assigned.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 14, 2017
