RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:My Final Word until we know more officially....Then why cross the line in the first place by acquiring the patents, at some expense, and launching the counter claim. Is the judge even privy to a negotiation on the dropping of claims. Do we really want to say what it means that the agreement was reach. Probably not, better to leave it as is, a sign that they are negotiating and capable of an agreement. Is it a thaw? A plus/minus column comparison says maybe and to more than one speculative conclusion. Clearly though the trial is moving ahead with more focus, maybe less risk, more jury appeal, and less potential award.
