Plaintiff Acticon Technologies LLC ("Acticon") brings this patent infringement case

("PTI Global") various 15 electronic connectors that embody the technology of the Patents-in-Suit which then were sold, 16 offered for sale and/or distributed by Pretec and PTI Global. Acticon further alleges that 17 Defendants Pretec, PTI Global, C-One and the individual defendants in the case conspired to and 18 did fraudulently transfer Pretec's assets to C-One and/or PTI Global with the intent to hinder, delay 19 or defraud Acticon in pursuing its claims against Pretec from a previous lawsuit. As a result, 20 Acticon alleges that it has been damaged by the wrongful transfer of assets, which prevents Acticon 21 from collecting monies due to Acticon by Pretec in the previous lawsuit.
