Apple Lawsuit for Noninfringement of Koss Patents Gets 3rd Judge

Apple’s Aug. 7 complaint seeking declaratory judgment of noninfringement of Koss headphone patents got its third judge in little more than a week when the case was reassigned to U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar in Oakland, said an order (in Pacer) Monday in case 20-cv-05504. U.S. Magistrate Judge Sallie Kim was removed from the case, reasons undisclosed, days after another magistrate judge, Susan van Keulen, recused herself (see 2008090001), also for undisclosed reasons.
