Civil Action No. 07-165 (JJF)

PLAINTIFFS' MOTION TO LIFT THE STAY FOR THE LIMITED PURPOSE OF FILING A SECOND AMENDED COMPLAINT AND TO FILE A SECOND AMENDED COMPLAINT Plaintiffs InterDigital Communications Corp. and InterDigital Technology Corp. (collectively "InterDigital") move this Court to lift the stay imposed on June 14, 2007 for the limited purpose of filing a Second Amended Complaint to include a new patent, U.S. Patent No. 7,286,847 ("the '847 patent"), which issued from the United States Patent and Trademark Office on Tuesday, October 23, 2007. The Complaint in this matter was filed on March 23, 2007 citing infringement of three separate patents, U.S. Patent Nos. 7,117,004, 6,674,791 and 6,973,579. InterDigital amended its complaint to add a fourth patent, U.S. Patent No. 7,190,966, as a matter of right on May 7, 2007. This Court entered a stay of this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1659(a) because the four patents-in-suit were the subject of an action in the U.S. International Trade Commission (the "ITC Investigation"). On November 2, 2007, InterDigital filed an Amended Complaint in the ITC, adding the

`847 patent as the fifth patent-in-suit in the ITC Investigation. InterDigital now moves this Court for leave to amend its complaint in this action so that the '847 patent may be added to this matter.1 This action is early in its pendency and, in fact, no Scheduling Order has yet been entered. A party may amend its pleading "by leave of court or by written consent of the adverse party; and leave shall be freely given when justice so requires." Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a). Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a) "reflects a general presumption in favor of allowing a party to amend its pleadings." Commodity Futures Trading Commission v. American Metal Exchange Corp., 693 F. Supp. 168, 189 (D.N.J. 1988) (citing Boileau v. O'Hare, et al., 730 F.2d 929 (3d Cir. 1984); see also 3 James Wm. Moore et al., Moore's Federal Practice ¶ 15.14[1] (3d ed. 2006) ("A liberal, pro-amendment ethos dominates the intent and judicial construction of Rule 15(a)."). The decision whether to grant leave to amend a complaint is an exercise of the discretion of the district court. 3 James Wm. Moore et al., Moore's Federal Practice ¶ 15.14[1] (3d ed. 2006). But "[t]he policy that a court should freely grant amendments limits a court's ability to deny leave to amend, and in a proper case, may warrant a finding of abuse of discretion in denying leave." Id. "In the absence of any apparent or declared reason -- such as undue delay, bad faith or dilatory motive on the part of the movant, repeated failure to cure deficiencies by amendments previously allowed, undue prejudice to the opposing party by virtue of allowance of the amendment, futility of amendment, etc. -- the leave sought should, as the rules require, be

In the proposed Second Amended Complaint, InterDigital will also be amending the caption and replacing the named plaintiff InterDigital Communications Corp. with InterDigital Communications, LLC. This change results from a recent corporate reorganization.

`freely given.'" Foman v. Davis, 371 U.S. 178, 182 (1962). The burden is on the non-moving party to show that it would be unduly prejudiced by the amendment. Sanders v. Clemco Ind., 823 F.2d 214, 217 (8th Cir. 1987). Defendants cannot make that showing. Copies of the Second Amended Complaint and a blackline version are attached at Tabs 1 and 2 respectively. A proposed Order is also attached.
