Silver:..

The answer to question you pose is YES THERE ARE SETTLEMENTS IN THE AIR...

Document 309 was a powerful messege by Judge Krieger sent to defendants. In essence shunting the Motion to Magistrate Watanabe she told the defense lawyers get out of my Court and stop waisting my time with your non sensical Motions. Discovery shall go forward as I have ORDERED. That my friend was a powerfull incentive for defendants to settle.

Watanabe has to schedule a Hearing on the Motion and he can schdule it for January 27, 2011. In the meantime there is this MARKMAN HEARING Scheduled for 1/28/2011...
