"Is the MMP Patent Portfolio still a "patent Litigator's dream." "
Not to be flippant, but continuous litigation since 2004 unequivocally answers that question.
The more prescient issue to understand is whether the MMP Patent Portfolio is a Patent OWNERS' Dream, and whether our BOD and TPL are really fighting with THAT endgame in mind.
I would hope they are and expect they should be, but so many actions along the way have belied different agendas. I hope that's just the white noise that goes along with the patent battle. That's a bit TOO forgiving in my opinion, but at this point, that's water under the bridge for the most part. The next month will be interesting.
I remember that jury selection for the NDOC is on 9/23. Do you have an actual trial start date handy?
