It is clear that FISH was the one and only defense counsel who got under DM'S skin in the first round. As I recall DM stipped to drop one of the patents against Samsung in the Motion he raised with TEXAS COURT...

DM got on the train fast to recurit him, following the first commandment of big firms "If you find a worthy adversary make him a partner.", and the second commandment that, "keep your friends close and your enemies much closer"...

FISH could have been there just to show his face to all the other defense attorneys, saying looky here I am now one of them,(DM that is). And it is possible one of the 19 knew him. Thus he did not put in an "Appearance" by checking in with the clerck...

Just like Giants he has a right to be there and he only sat with DM group as their friend...Lol...
