Take this for whatever you think its worth. I'm starting to hear a bit of chatter about the administration change and potential new heads of the PTO. There is a lot of conversation about pro patent candidates as the new heads of that organization. There are also some rumors and discussion about what that head may be able to do. I'v heard talk that the new head of the PTO has the authority to change the IPR standard. They will have the authority to change or drastically alter the BRI standard which they themselves implemented and/or possibly even getting rid of the way in which the IPR itself works. This is all conjecture at this point, but if I"m hearing it then I know Susman is hearing it and I have to wonder if this is the reason whey they decided to go the route of the appeal. It is entirely possible that within a month or three that the IPR could be thrown out and any active appeal or case might be thrown out with it. That "could" reinstate all of WDDD's claims. We can argue all day about how likely this is, but for those companies sitting on the other side of this like ATVI that is something they have to fretting. It cannot possible get better for the patent infringers than it has been the last 4 years. The winds are changing and they could potentially change very quickly which could drastically effect their leverage in these active cases. We could wake up any day after the inauguration with a new PTO head and a drastically different playing field which could immediately impact our case. So, if you are on the sidelines in WDDD due to a potential r/s or time delay just know that there is a lot of pro patent talk out there at the moment.
