On November 6, 2023, Oracle America, Inc. and Oracle International Corp. (together, “Oracle”) filed a motion for attorneys’ fees and taxable costs with the United States District Court for the District of Nevada (the “District Court”) in Case Number 2:14-cv-01699-MMD-DJA (“Rimini II”) filed by Rimini Street, Inc. (the “Company”) against Oracle in 2014. In its motion, Oracle requested attorneys’ fees and taxable costs totaling approximately $70.6 million relating to the Rimini II litigation.
The Rimini II bench trial concluded on December 15, 2022, and the District Court issued its findings of fact and conclusions of law in the Rimini II litigation on July 24, 2023. On October 24, 2022, in advance of the Rimini II trial, the District Court granted a stipulation dismissing with prejudice all of Oracle’s claims “for monetary relief of any kind” and, to date, has not made any award of attorneys’ fees and taxable costs.
As previously stipulated to by the parties and ordered by the District Court, the Company’s opposition to Oracle’s motion was due by February 20, 2024.
On February 20, 2024, the Company filed its opposition to Oracle’s November 6, 2023 motion for attorneys’ fees and taxable costs in the Rimini II litigation. In its opposition, the Company argues that the District Court should deny Oracle’s motion in its entirety. The Company further argues that, should the District Court award any attorneys’ fees to Oracle, such fees should not exceed $14.47 million.
As ordered by the District Court, Oracle’s reply to the Company’s opposition is due by March 15, 2024, after which the matter will be taken under consideration for determination by the District Court. The Company reserves all rights, including appellate rights, with respect to the Rimini II litigation, including any award of attorneys’ fees and taxable costs to Oracle.
All information in this Item 7.01 is presented as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K and not any future date, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to, and disclaims any duty to, update any of the information provided.
Please see the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on November 1, 2023, for additional information and disclosures relating to the Company’s litigation with Oracle.
The information presented in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, unless the Company specifically states that the information is to be considered “filed” under the Exchange Act or specifically incorporates it by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
