DISCUSSION
Motorola does not obj ect to RIM revising its declarations to state that two of the `
inventors of certain Motorola nonessential patents formerly resided in the Eastern District of
Texas.] As revised, RIM’s Supplementary Brief and Attorney Declaration declare that
"regardless of the present location of these inventors, discoverable information regarding the
work they performed in the Northern District of Texas in connection with the patents-in-suit
likely remains in that District." (Supp. Brf. at 3, Supp. Decl. 1] 6).
RIM is still incorrect-——the Motorola nonessential patents are not the patents—in-suit. The
only patents at issue before this Court are the RIM patents that are asserted against Motorola.
Those patents have named inventors from Waterloo, Ontario, Canada and New ersey. The
named inventors of two of the patents—in-suit are within the subpoena power of this Court, while
none are in Northern District of Texas.
RIM’s revised declarationdconfirms why its transfer motion must fail. When the Court
considers the facts that are relevant to the RIM patent claims, the Third Circuit’s Jumara test
overwhelmingly counsels that transfer is improper.

1 In its Reply Brief and attached Declaration, RIM stated that a Carrollton, Texas facility is
located in the Northern District of Texas. (Reply at 9; Mischler Reply Decl. 1] IO). However,
much of Carrollton, Texas is not located in the Northern District of Texas. RIM has not yet
confirmed the specific location of its Carrollton facility.
