"The Company responded to the first ‘774 office action which was a rejection of certain claims by the patent office. In an effort to overcome the rejection, the Company filed a request to amend certain claim elements in the ‘774 patent, that was approved by the USPTO, thereby successfully ending the ‘774 reexamination. The Company expects, but cannot assure, that the amendments will help clarify and strengthen its ability to enforce infringement of the ‘774. With regard to the ‘737 patent, the Company filed a response to a USPTO office action and subsequently received a final rejection. As previously reported, the Company intends to file a supplemental declaration to try to overcome the rejection."
********
Once the 737 case is decided, how long will it take DM to file the next round of litigation?
That bit of information is critical to shareholders and shareholder value, imo.
