From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

In this patent case, Apple moves the Court for leave to amend its answer to CCE’s Third Amended Complaint [Doc. # 215]. Relative to its live pleadings, [Doc. # 231–234], Apple’s proposed First Amended Answer [Doc. # 298] adds a counterclaim for breach of contract based on CCE’s alleged failure to disclose certain patent applications to the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), a working group that developed the LTE standard relevant to the asserted patents .
