UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
NEURAL AI, LLC, Case No. 26-mc-80261-AGT
Petitioner,
ORDER RE: MOTION TO COMPEL
v.
Re: Dkt. No. 1
OAI INTERNATIONAL, INC.,
Respondent.
In the Western District of Texas, Neural AI, LLC (“NAI”), is suing NVIDIA Corp.
for patent infringement. See Neural AI, LLC v. NVIDIA Corp., No. 24-cv-00221-LS-DTG
(W.D. Tex. Sept. 13, 2024). NAI alleges that NVIDIA’s GPU accelerators and superchips
infringe three patents covering graphic-processor-based accelerator systems and methods.
See generally Dkt. 1-2 (complaint), 1-8 (infringement contentions).
To determine how the accused products are deployed and configured, NAI is seeking
discovery from NVIDIA’s customers and end users. To that end, NAI subpoenaed nine com-
panies: OAI International, Inc. (f/k/a Open AI, LLC), Amazon.com, Inc., Microsoft Corp.,
CoreWeave, Inc., Oracle Corp., Tesla Inc., Google, LLC, Meta Platforms, Inc., and x.AI
Corp. All nine companies objected to the subpoenas, which prompted NAI to file nine
Case 3:26-mc-80261-AGT Document 18 Filed 09/30/26 Page 2 of 2
motions to compel. NAI filed eight of those motions in the Western District of Texas. See
Dkt. 7 at 9–10 (identifying case numbers). The ninth motion, against OAI International, NAI
filed here, in the Northern District of California. Dkt. 1.
Given the complexity of the underlying action, plus the fact that all but one of the
nine motions to compel were filed in the issuing court, this may be one of those exceptional
cases in which the interests of justice favor transferring the pending motion to compel to the
issuing court, in the Western District of Texas. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 45(f).
By October 7, 2026, the party subject to the subpoena, OAI International, shall notify
the Court of whether it consents to the transfer. While the motion to compel remains pending,
the parties shall notify the Court of any relevant developments in the related subpoena dis-
putes. The Court vacates the October 2, 2026, hearing on the motion to compel.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: September 30, 2026
