You may have something there, but I just can't see what they are going to get out of the mediation! When it comes to treble damages, Infringers have something to gain out of the mediation! Gers doesn't, though chances are that much of those Punitive damages would be reduced, maybe totally dismissed, in a court case anyway! Then Maybe Gers would be willing to dismiss some of the stuff, just to have most of those guys become Gers Contractees right away, rather than way down the line somewhere! If that would be the case, then Gers can start receiving Royalties right away! I just am skeptical when the Infringers have so much to lose, and Gers not very much, considering, as one astute poster mentioned, they (the Infringers,)have either admitted fault already, or are considering the fact that the USPTO office has found Gers patents to be valid for a 2nd. time, making the mediation the best bet for them? No, Gers must see something in the mediation effort that they can work on, though the mediator is not the Judge, and may not be under the same rules as the judge is! Also, the judge is much more versed on precedent IMV, than the mediator, though I don't know what expertise the mediator has! I really don't know! There will be surprises, as none of us know what is going on? I am just surmising the tone of both sides that's all, and I might be totally wrong! Good Luck guys and gals...
