"Almost all, if not all, of these things have been requested by Edig, have been unopposed by the defendants, and fall between March 10th and April 10th I believe. Just thinking in a positive vain, I wonder if Edig believes that 108 will be removed from being part of the CE ruling by say the end of this month, since it was not litigated in CO, which would strengthen our position and give rise to the global solutions that are being referred to as far as 108 is concerned. Per Doni's posts, I get it that it is still huge to get the CE overturned as to 774, but this could be helpful as to the most recent 41? suits." BLR
Why does anyone think something is going to happen by the end of this month? The Collateral Estopple that tied our patent 108 to the CO decision won't be ruled on until fall or winter in our appeal to the 9th Circuit. I must be missing something???
I still wish Plank would give us a reasoned opinion for optimism. Donni thinks it has to do with the December AAPL move. I'm so dense, I can't see anything yet. I am glad we've got an active law firm working for themselves and us. Our case (all combined) may end up with some important findings at the appeals level, or the 9th may make some minor ruling and send it back to trial court. It's a little early to get confident.
