"Also, note that the 7/24/12 PR which announced the MH "victory" in NorCal was followed up by an 8-K - though it was more about ITC actions initiated, with the MH info thrown in."

Regarding the timing of an anticipated 8K for the MH ruling FILING from last week (a ruling that was actually issued from the bench on Friday 11/30), you referenced an SEC timing constraint of 4 days for the 8K filing for a material event.

I'd just remind you that PTSC didn't file an 8K that referenced the June 12th Markman Ruling ("Remarkable for its defeat of the last remaining ground being clung to by a recalcitrant group of serial infringers"), until July 24th, 42 days later. Even then, they didn't consider such a "remarkable" Markman ruling "Material" and the PR, as you mention was focused on the ITC actions, which by they way were also consdered NOT material despite the issuance of the 8K.

What makes you think the current Markman ruling would now be considered "material" as far as PTSC is concerned?
