NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on August 14, 2007, at 9:30 a.m., or as soon thereafter as this matter may be heard, in Courtroom 11 of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division, located at 450 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California 94102, Acclaim Innovations, LLC ("Acclaim") will move and hereby does move for entry of default and default judgment against defendant Pretec Electronics Corp. ("Pretec"). This Motion is based upon this Notice of Motion and Motion, the Memorandum of Points and Authorities set forth below, the declaration of Rip Finst, the complete records and files of this action, the arguments of counsel, such additional evidence as the Court may consider, and all matters of which the Court may take judicial notice. RELIEF SOUGHT Pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 16(f) and 55, Acclaim respectfully requests that the Court strike Pretec's answer and enter default and default judgment against Pretec. MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES For over one year, Pretec has, in violation of the Court's Order, failed to obtain counsel. Pretec also has not made an appearance or attended a status conference in this case since June 2006. Pretec has simply shown no interest in participating in this action and defending itself against Acclaim's claims of patent infringement. The Court has discretion to enter judgment by default (Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b)(2)), and where, as here, a party has disregarded a Court Order to retain counsel and repeatedly failed to appear, entry of default and default judgment pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 16(f) and 55(b)(2) is and should be granted.1 Ringgold Corp. v. Worrall, 880 F.2d 1138, 1141 (9th Cir. 1989) (affirming district court's grant of motion for default and default judgment where plaintiffs did not comply with Court order granting "Rule 16(f) expressly provides for imposing sanctions on disobedient or recalcitrant parties.... [ ] Furthermore, [Rule 16(f)'s] explicit reference to sanctions reinforces the rule's intention to encourage forceful judicial management." Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(f) advisory committee's note on 1983 amend.

motion for withdrawal that instructed plaintiffs to obtain new counsel and for plaintiffs' "repeated failure to attend pretrial conferences, [and] otherwise participate in or remain informed about the litigation"). Further, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 16(f) authorizes the Court to enter default against a party who disobeys a scheduling or pretrial order, as Pretec has done here.2 A. Pretec Has Repeatedly Violated The Court's Orders And Has Not Participated In This Case For More Than A Year On May 30, 2006, the Court granted Mount & Stoelker's motion to withdraw as counsel for Defendants Pretec, PNY Technologies, Inc. and C-One Technology Corp. ("C-One") (Docket No. 325). The Court's Order further directed Pretec and C-One "to assign replacement counsel within 30 days of the date of this order." C-One, appearing pro per, filed a Motion To Reconsider Motion on June 12, 2006 requesting that the Court reconsider its order granting Mount & Stoelker's motion to withdraw as counsel (Docket No. 332). On the same date, Pretec filed a Notice Of Joinder joining C-One's Motion (Docket No. 333). In its Motion, C-One (and, thereby, Pretec) requested "60 days to retain a new counsel." Docket No. 332 at 4. However, more than ten months later, neither C-One nor Pretec had retained counsel. Thus, on April 16, 2007, the Court entered an Order instructing Pretec and C-One to file a response within 10 days "which: (1) addresses the merits of the Motion To Withdraw As Counsel, to the extent that C-One and/or Pretec continue to oppose that motion, and/or (2) clarifies for the Court whether and on what timeline C-One and Pretec intend to retain new counsel to represent them in this action." Docket No. 381. Neither Pretec nor C-One filed a response, and, on May 14, 2007, the Court thereby denied their motion for reconsideration. See Docket No. 385. Further, Pretec and C-One did not appear for a Court-ordered status conference on June 5, 2007. See Docket No. 387. Consequently, on June 8, 2007, the Court issued an order to show cause why the defendants failed to appear at the status conference and warned that "[f]ailure to respond may result in the Court striking each defendant's answer and entry of default." Docket No. 389. Pretec did not file a

"Among the sanctions authorized by [Rule 16(f)] are:... default judgment...and charging a party, his attorney, or both with the expenses, including attorney's fees, caused by noncompliance." Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(f) advisory committee's note on 1983 amend.

response by the June 29 deadline.3 Pretec has had thirteen months to retain new counsel, but, in violation of the Court's Order and in contradiction of its representations to the Court and Acclaim, has not done so and has proffered no basis for its continuing failure to retain counsel. Moreover, Pretec has repeatedly failed to respond to the Court's Orders (see, e.g., Docket Nos. 381, 389) and did not appear for a status conference intended to cover "all remaining issues in this matter." See Docket No. 385 Pretec's failure to appear has, inter alia, and as the Court noted (see id.), precluded Acclaim from meeting and conferring with Pretec on remaining pretrial deadlines, including additional discovery, and has prejudiced Acclaim's right to resolution of its claims. Given Pretec's repeated and long-standing non-compliance with the Court's Orders and failure to participate in any proceedings, Acclaim requested nearly eight months ago that the Court enter an order to show cause why default judgment should not be entered against defendants Pretec and C-One. See Joint Statement of Case Status (Docket No. 348) at 2:23-3:2 Acclaim renewed its request on November 30, 2006. Joint Status Conference Statement (Docket No. 350) at 4:20-26. At the December 5, 2006 status conference, the Court stated that it would issue an order to show cause why default judgment should not be entered against Pretec and C-One. Finst Decl, ¶ 2. This issue was revisited at status conferences on January 17, 2007 (id. at ¶ 3) and June 5, 2007 (Docket No. 387). Further, the Court issued two orders expressly warning Pretec that its failure to appear and respond would result in entry of default. See Order GrantingIn-Part And Denying-In-Part Motion For Reconsideration (Docket No. 381) at 2:14-17; Order to Show Cause (Docket No. 389) at 1:20-21. Thus, the Court has for many months extended every accommodation to Pretec. However, the time is ripe to enter default and terminate this action without further delay. B. Entry Of Default And Default Judgment Is Warranted The Court must consider five factors in deciding whether to declare a default judgment: "(1) the public's interest in expeditious resolution of litigation; (2) the court's need to manage its docket; (3) the risk of prejudice to the [party seeking default]; (4) the public policy

favoring the disposition of cases on their merits; and (5) the availability of less drastic sanctions." Adriana Intern. Corp. v. Thoeren, 913 F.2d 1406, 1412 (9th Cir. 1990) (affirming district court's entry of default judgment against party who failed to appear and refused to comply with court orders). Where, as here, "a court order is violated, the first two factors support [default] and the fourth factor cuts against a default. Therefore, it is the third and fifth factors that are decisive." Id. Regarding the third factor, the risk of prejudice to Acclaim is substantial. This action is seven years old, and Acclaim has settled with defendants PNY and Memtek. However, Acclaim has and continues to incur significant expense by diligently pursuing its claims against a defendant that has willfully and in bad faith refused to participate for more than one year. Pretec remains untouchable unless, as the Court noted, it appears with counsel.4 See Further Order Re: Motion To Reconsider (Docket No. 385) at 1:23-24 (citing Local Rule 3-9(b) and United States v. High Country Broadcasting Co., Inc., 3 F.3d 1244, 1245 (9th Cir. 1993)). Pretec's actions have precluded Acclaim (and the Court) from meaningfully proceeding with this action, thus, causing significant prejudice to Acclaim. See Adriana Intern. Corp., 913 F.2d at 1412 (stating that the moving party "suffers prejudice if the [the other party's] actions impair the [moving party's] ability to go to trial or threaten to interfere with the rightful decision of the case."). Further, Pretec's refusal to comply with the Court's Orders, which were intended to facilitate resolution of this action, have interfered with Acclaim's right to timely adjudication of its claims. See id. (finding that party's "continuing refusal to comply with court-ordered production of documents constitutes an interference with the rightful decision of the case"). Moreover, Pretec's
infringement of Acclaim's patents has harmed and continues to harm Acclaim. Unless default and default judgment is entered, Pretec's absence will continue to needlessly prejudice Acclaim. Indeed, under circumstances less egregious than those here, the Court in Adriana concluded that Pretec, however, cannot insulate itself from entry of default and default judgment by claiming a lack of counsel. The Court's rationale in Ringgold Corp., 880 F.2d at 1141-1142, applies with equal force here: "Even before [Pretec's] counsel withdrew, [Pretec] had a duty to keep track of the progress of their lawsuit. They are considered to have notice of all facts known to their lawyer-agent. ... Once counsel withdrew, their duty to keep track of their lawsuit became that much greater." (emphasis added) Thus, entry of default judgment should not indeed, cannot come as a surprise to Pretec.

the moving party had established prejudice. See id. Regarding the fifth factor, the Court has previously considered and instituted less drastic sanctions. See id. (setting forth three-part analysis for determining whether district court "properly considered the adequacy of less drastic sanctions"). As stated above, the issue of default has been discussed with the Court for many months (most recently at a status conference Pretec willfully refused to attend), and the Court has at least twice issued Orders warning that the sanction of default was viable and available. The Court already sanctioned Pretec for its flagrant disregard of the Court's Orders, including striking without prejudice Pretec's Motion for Summary Judgment of Invalidity. See Docket No. 385. Despite the fact that the Court ordered Pretec to retain counsel more than one year ago and has already sanctioned Pretec, Pretec continues to blatantly defy the Court's requests. Indeed, Pretec has been silent and not even proffered an excuse for its continuing failure to make an appearance. Thus, it is highly unlikely that any sanction less than entry of default and default judgment will notice Pretec of the severity of its improper and abusive conduct in these proceedings. Finally, in contrast to the Court's decision in Adriana, here, the fourth factor is favored. Although there may be a general policy in favor of granting decisions on the merits, Pretec's absence has significantly frustrated indeed, stalled this action and, thus, a decision on the merits is impossible and impractical. Thus, each and every factor, favors immediate entry of default and default judgment against Pretec. CONCLUSION For each of the aforementioned reasons, Acclaim respectfully requests that the Court strike Pretec's answer and enter default and default judgment against Pretec.
