By Memorandum Order entered by The Honorable Leonard P. Stark in Greatbatch Ltd. v. AVX Corp., et al., Civil Action No. 13-723-LPS (D.Del., December 10, 2015), the Court denied the motion to stay of Defendants AVX Corporation and AVX Filters Corporation pending (1) appeal of a final written decision by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board ("PTAB") in an inter partes review ("IPR") proceeding related to U.S. Patent No. 5,905,627 ("the '627 patent") and (2) resolution of proceedings related to an application for reissue of the '627 patent. After evaluating and weighing the three factors the Court typically considers when deciding a motion to stay, the Court found that those factors did not favor granting the motion to stay.
