I've read on other boards today that people are questioning NEC & Fujitsu still being mentioned in Pacer documents as if they are still involved in the court case.
Is it possible that NEC and Fujitsu have only licensed the majority of the MMP and have deemed ARM is responsible for the infringement of the 584 patent? Is Exhibt A. stating that they have agreed to infringement of the 336 patent, but are holding ARM responsible for the 584? They may be required to stay involved in the case until ARM has been judge innocent or guilty of infringing the 584 patent.
From wolfs Exhibit A. post:
The parties were unable to agree on any constructions for the claim terms identified as needing construing by the parties for U.S. Patent No. 6,598,148. Plaintiffs have represented that they are accusing only ARM core chips of infringing the ‘584 Patent. Accordingly, Defendants have deferred to the constructions proposed by ARM with respect to the ‘584 Patent. Defendants reserve the right to raise additional claim construction issues and to make additional proposals regarding claim construction in the event that plaintiffs seek to include additional chips beyond the ARM core chips currently accused.
Correct me if I am wrong please!
