`BACKGROUND
`
`This is an action for patent infringement, in which Plaintiff SurfCast Inc. asserts
`
`U.S. Patent Nos. 9,032,317; 9,043,712; 9,363,338; and 9,946,434 (collectively, the “Patents-
`
`in-Suit”) against Defendant Microsoft Corporation. SurfCast brought this suit in the U.S.
`
`District Court for the Western District of Texas, but it was transferred to this District in
`
`September 2022. (Dkt. No. 58.) On October 12, 2022, the Court stayed this case pendingfinal
`
`resolution, including any appeals, of inter partes review (“IPR”) proceedings on the Patents-
`
`in-Suit and requested that the parties file a status report every six months updating the Court
`
`as to the status of the IPRs. (Dkt. No. 67 at 4.) Pursuant to that Order, the parties submit this
`
`report.
