RE:RE:RE:BB v. FB: Dismiss Case, Feb 14 2021I think this sums it up pretty well. From Steelers12 on ST:
If you read the motion to vacate from Feb 8th, the very first page, it sounds like the dismissed case was necessary for settlement.
“Plaintiff BlackBerry Limited filed this unopposed motion asking the Court to vacate the SJ Order to facilitate a settlement with defendant Facebook, Inc…The parties filed a Joint Status Report indicating that they: (1) “have reached a confidential settlement to dismiss all remaining claims and counterclaims in this action” and (2) waive oral argument and jointly requested that the hearing on the motion be taken off-calendar.”
Sounds like FB was willing to settle and it was contingent upon dismissing the case. Meaning BB is getting paid."
