Southwire Co. v. Cerro Wire Inc., 3:08-cv-00092 (N.D. Ga. May 12, 2009) (Camp, J.)
Judge Camp granted a stay of the proceedings pending an inter partes reexamination of the patent-in-suit filed by the Defendant early in the litigation. Noting that a final decision on the reexamination could take as long as five years, a duration that may change the nature of the prejudice to Plaintiff, the Court entered the stay without prejudice to Plaintiff moving to dissolve the stay after the first of three stages of the reexamination, namely, upon issuance of a final decision by the USPTO examiner.
