C.A. No. 06-785-***
Dear Judge Thynge:
In accordance with the Court’s Order of December 14, 2007, (D.I. 69), I write on
behalf of defendant Wetherill Associates, Inc. ("Wetherill") to advise the Court that Wetherill
joins in defendant Wells Manufacturing Corp.’s ("Wells") request that this action continue to be
stayed pending resolution of the reexamination of the patent—in-issue pending before the United
States Patent & Trademark Office. The reexamination could result in the invalidation of some or
all of the claims of the patent-in-suit, in which case there could be no infringement of any
invalidated claim. In addition, the reexamination could result in a narrowing of some or all of
the claims, which could impact the Court’s construction of the language of those claims. Hence,
a stay pending reexamination would both promote judicial economy and preserve the parties’
resources.
Respectfully, _
9/gum
