STIPULATION AND ORDER TRANSFERRING THE CASE TO THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff VoIP-Pal.com, Inc. ("Plaintiff" or "VoIP-Pal") and Defendant AT&T Corp ("AT&T") agree and stipulate as follows:

WHEREAS VoIP-Pal filed a separate lawsuit against Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless ("Verizon") in this District asserting the same patents as are asserted in this litigation. Voip-Pal.com, Inc. v. Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless, No. 2:16-cv-00271-RCJ-VCF (D. Nev.) (the "Verizon Litigation");

WHEREAS Verizon filed on August 17, 2018, a Motion to Transfer Venue to the Northern District of California Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a) Dkt. No. 72 in the Verizon Litigation. The Motion to Transfer is fully briefed as of September 11, 2018. VoIP-Pal no longer opposes Verizon's Motion to Transfer and those parties have filed, on the same date herewith, a stipulation to transfer the Verizon Litigation to the Northern District of California;

WHEREAS VoIP-Pal filed a separate lawsuit against Twitter, Inc. in this District asserting the same patents as are asserted in this litigation. Voip-Pal.com, Inc. v. Twitter, Inc., No. 2:16-cv-02338-RFB-CWH (D. Nev.). The Voip-Pal v. Twitter case was transferred to the Northern District of California on July 23, 2018;

WHEREAS VoIP-Pal has also filed this lawsuit against AT&T and separate lawsuits against Apple Inc., and Amazon.com, Inc. in this District. VoIP-Pal.com, Inc. v. AT&T Corp, No. 2:18cv-01129-RCJ (D. Nev.) ("This Litigation"); VoIP-Pal.com, Inc. v. Apple, Inc., Case No. 2:16-cv-00260-RFB-VCF (D. Nev.); Voip-Pal.com, Inc. v. Amazon.com, Inc. et al., No. 2:18-cv-01076-MMD-VCF (D. Nev.). The cases involve similar allegations. VoIP-Pal consents to transfer of This Litigation, and intends to consent to the transfer of the foregoing litigation against Apple Inc. and Amazon.com, Inc. to the Northern District of California.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED that this case is transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The Clerk of Court shall close this case in this District.

This Stipulation is filed in good faith and is not intended to cause unnecessary delay. The convenience of the parties and witnesses favors transfer to the Northern District of California. And because the Twitter, Inc. case was transferred to the California, and VoIP-Pal consents to transfer of the Verizon, Apple Inc., and Amazon.com, Inc. cases, it would be efficient for the parties and the Court to also transfer this case. There is thus good cause to transfer this case to the Northern District of California.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
