Today

[cabbieJBJ]

I'm prepared for today to be a non event, VirnetX precedent notwithstanding. I will not read it as either positive or negative unless the court says unequivocally to either side that "you are full of$hit!". I will listen very closely to what is said though.

[v_guerriero]

It will be telling if Chief Judge Kimberly Moore cuts off Apple counsel during opening argument.

[SixMileLake777]

Nonevent. OK I will be pesimistic too.  Non event like every other Wilan event. There.  Na Na Na Skid

[cabbieJBJ]

I'm not being pessemistic.   Skid, why are you here?

[SixMileLake777]

Becasue I am one of 49 waiting for this to start, and I have 45,000 or so shares I would like to make money on and I am very tired...... Skid

[SixMileLake777]

are we at 10 Am room 201?

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit     SUBSCRIBE Panel M: Friday, October 8, 2021, 10:00 A.M., Courtroom 201 Judges: Moore, Bryson, & Prost 21-1460 Potter v. DVA 21-1624 Bailey v. US 20-2011 Apple Inc. v. Wi-LAN Inc. U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

They are not talking Wilan Apple.  

[ChiChi3]

Skid, it appears there are 3 cases that they have to get through before noon (I think).  Wilan/Apple is listed 3rd so I'd suspect us to go on between 11 and 11:30.   The audio is rolling on the first case - seems VERY simple relative to our case. I'm also not expecting much stock price movement coming out of this but I'd like to be pleasantly surprised. Chi

[SixMileLake777]

That is what I thought.  Waiting.....

[whaler83]

Story of our life with this investment. Waited this long. Why not wait a few more hours to get our day in appellant court.

[ChiChi3]

I change my mind - i don't think we'll be on until after lunch given how long this first case is going on.  I'm also surprised at the degree they are getting into the weeds on this first (seemingly simple) case so I'd be surprised if we didn't get some nuggets today on what way the court will go.  Whether those nuggets filter into the share price is another story. If

[whaler83]

Even if we win this it will likely be off to SCOTUS we go.

[wilander]

SCOTUS wont hear it. This is Apples last stop on the litigation train.

[cabbieJBJ]

0.001% chance this goes to the SCOTUS either way Whaler.  CAFC is the last step; the losing party can only request an en banc hearing (considered by the full CAFC court).  Even en banc hearing requests are rarely granted.

[whaler83]

Well that's atleast good to hear

[ChiChi3]

So I listened to the first case (its over now and they are on to the 2nd case) in the background while doing some work.  Based on the tone of the judges and questioning I`m pretty sure the DVA will win.  If this were a patent case, I would feel confident buying shares in DVA and probably would do so if shares didn't go up in price.  Assuming enough QTRH investors are listening

[v_guerriero]

Yes.  Judge Moore can signal in the court room the way the court is leaning.  As she did in that case. She is the feisty Chief Judge.  She essentially said in the VirnetX case that if we remand, you are asking us to draw this out for 10 years in total which is inappropriate.

[cabbieJBJ]

Interesting Chi.  I thought that Potter would prevail, based on the appearance that the record  reflected neither the landscape at the DVA at the time that the position was withdrawn nor the credibility of the claim that the fact that she had been very critical of senior management had no bearing on the decision to withdraw the position.

[wilander]

When I was at the Wilan vs Canadian Telcos trial -- where the lawyers were all cheerfully chatting before the judge walked in, and when the court commenced and the lawyers immediately told him there would be no need for a trial as they had come to an agreement early in the morning, and that it would be submitted to the court within 48 hours -- his response was that while he was glad the issue was

[wilander]

we are third in line.  When we are up, someone be sure to post it on the message board.  I willdo the same.  Checking in and out until then. Panel M: Friday, October 8, 2021, 10:00 A.M., Courtroom 201 Judges: Moore, Bryson, & Prost 21-1460 Potter v. DVA 21-1624 Bailey v. US 20-2011 Apple Inc. v. Wi-LAN Inc.

[SixMileLake777]

Well Cabbie I agree now.  Non event because I have no idea what will happen Skid
