Stokd $NLST In addition to challenging PTAB reasoning on many aspects, Netlist addresses lack of reasoning/analysis on other claims & limitations.
"Board’s failure to provide independent analysis for numerous claims and limitations requires vacatur. Samsung insists the Board “cited to the relevant briefing.” But that is insufficient.
Netlist was not required to present “arguments” about those limitations. Patentees have “no obligation to raise any objection.” The Board must provide reasoned analysis that supports the patent’s invalidation. The defect is not that the Board’s reasoning could have been ‘more thorough.’ It is that the Board’s own reasoning was NON-EXISTENT. This Court “is powerless to affirm the” Board’s decision where the Board’s own “grounds are inadequate or improper.” And harmless error exists only where the agency’s error ‘clearly had no bearing on the procedure used or the substance of decision reached.’ There is no basis for deeming the fundamental errors here harmless."

Stokd $NLST "Claim 1 of the 060 patent requires at least two groups of “array dies” and at least two “die interconnects”
"To find that invention in the prior art, the Board invoked “Kim’s memory chip C1” and “chip C2”— each depicted as a single die—as the “first” and “second group” of dies, and Kim’s “TSV1” and “TSV2” as the “first” and “second die interconnect.”"
"The Board, however, confronted a problem: Kim’s TSV1 and TSV2 are each connected to one memory die (C1 & C2). But the claim requires a “first group of array dies” with “multiple array dies” connected to the “first die interconnect.” So the Board announced that skilled artisans “‘would have been motivated to connect additional memory dies to Kim’s TSV1 & TSV2.’” In doing so, the BOARD IGNORED EVERY REASON KIM POINTS AWAY FROM THAT MODIFICATION. Kim does not merely show single dies with single TSVs in each embodiment. It teaches that dies “cannot share” connections, such as TSVs, because “unavoidable” “data collisions”would result."

Stokd $NLST Re: Netlist CAFC 160/060 Reply. Remember Samsung claimed Netlist addressed the "wrong combination", and had some wondering if Netlist new counsel—CAFC specialist & previous head of firm Samsung used at PTAB to invalidate the patents—made such an obvious and critical error…to address the wrong combination in arguments against Samsung/PTAB. Well, he's got it covered...never trust Samsung's claims!
“Samsung’s assertion that Netlist addresses the “wrong combination,” likewise fails. According to Samsung, the Board started with another reference, Rajan, and determined skilled artisans would “implement” Rajan “using . . . Kim’s TSV[s]”. That rewrites the Board’s rationale.”
“The Board adopted Samsung’s contention that skilled artisans “ ‘would have been motivated to connect additional memory dies to Kim’s TSV1 and TSV2’”. The Board’s combination was based on Kim. Samsung cannot escape Kim’s teaching away and seek affirmance based on a Rajan-focused combination the Board never invoked.”

Stokd $NLST Netlist filed their Reply in the CAFC appeal of 160 & 060 patents on May 21…that concludes the briefing process and we wait for the panel to absorb/digest and begin the Oral Argument scheduling process.
With that, all briefings are done in the CAFC appeals of the # 463 case and all its patents—339/918/054/160/060—and these “companion CAFC cases” are all in the Oral Argument phase of the process…after which comes the decision.

SilviaJ The 087 patent is a gift to Sheasby and his team. Samsung will have no PTAB to delay the inevitable on this one.
The fintiv ruling is a stunning turnaround made by the acting PTAB director, Coke Morgan Stewart. Add to that the apparent willingness for the director to personally reject IPR reviews, and it seems like NLST won't have to spend so much time and money on IPRs (and delays they provide to our adversaries).
We have a window of opportunity opening up here. Now could be the time to get congress to codify pro-patent changes to the PTAB review process.
But as for Sheasby, he is such a humble and endearing soul. It is no wonder his "aw shucks" manner works with so many juries. He is straight and true.
There is much to be hopeful for. i agree, but you have to admit you fell off a cliff with the possible negative variables, but i did like your post.........now i'm gonna fall off a cliff with you, believe it or not. every position i ever held that i had dedicated confidence in showed some kind of sign to me that it would be successful, without me looking for it. it just appears...........for the week i've had a pair of ducks come visit my property. i've never saw a duck on my property since 85 when i bought this place.
so last night just before the sunset i was out on the porch grabbin a smoke when mom and pop landed in my yard and it hit me......your gonna make a bundle on nlst........i rest my case........the only reason i'm replying to this is, if ducks choose you, ducks are good luck!!!
peace my brother.........
$NLST This post is not for the nonbelievers in Jason Sheasby but for those that still have faith in Jason, like myself.We all know Jason had a master plan when all the different case’s originally started.We all know that Jason has had to make major adjustments to his original plans with all the counter litigation by the intellectual property thieves and untimely courts that have caused major delays! I know it is hard for someone to know how good Jason is at what he does without being there and seeing him in person at work!You don’t have to take my word for it(but there is no comparison between the opposition lawyers and Jason,not even close!)There have been a few Nlst spectators in the courtroom that I think would agree with my analysis of Jason’s ability if asked.As I have said in the past my trust is in Jason Sheasby getting us to the promised land and end all this litigation with a settlement and a license agreement!Right now I would love another trip to Marshall Tx. PEP TALK GLLs
So as to the patent litigation filed for the '087 patent involving HBM3 and HBM3e memory -
Netlist originally filed Case 2:25-cv-00553 against Samsung on 05/19/25. Then on 05/22, they asked for and received a dismissal of that case.
Netlist filed Case # 2:25-cv-00557 (Netlist V. Samsung) on 05/19/25 regarding the '087 patent.
Netlist filed Case # 2:25-cv-00558 (Netlist V. Micron) on 05/19/25 regarding the '087 patent.
Samsung filed Case # 1:25-cv-00626 (Samsung V. Netlist) on 05/20/25 regarding the '087 patent.
Usually, when the same two companies file suit about the same patent, the company filing earliest gets the nod as to where the case will be fought. This is known as the "first-to-file" rule.
Although it could change, it looks like - since Netlist filed earliest - the case will likely be heard by Gilstrap in ED Court of Texas.
It's likely that the reason Netlist waited until now to file the '087 patent litigation is that the USPTO only just approved the '087 patent on 05/20/25. Netlist applied for the patent in 2022.
Ahh yes My gastank on the pickup is leaking somewhere so dropping that in the A.m. and fixing it. then the gills. I think Bluegills are some of the best eatin fish there is. To me they almost have a sweet taste. anyhow enjoy your wkend my friend.
And to coin an old phrase
NLST get some. :+)
$NLST We're well on the way, folks!
Hopefully, there's much fruit to all this waiting and labor. The Bible speaks of the farmer who plants seed and waits patiently for the crop.
Different context here, but we sure have a lot of seedlings, and the crop could be outlandishly large.
I certainly had high hopes for a 2024 Hybrid product w SKH. That didnt happen.
Finally, we are now rolling out new products w much, much greater margins.
On the IP front, we seriously look to be months away! Maybe not 2, but 8, 10, 12 will seem to have the potential to lead to what we want-an end of the Court cases and appeals - and a final cooperation between companies and Netrists Portfolio.
This surprise 087 pahtent is wonderful! As my image below shows, all we need is 1! Any and everything else is welcome, but in an 11 figure market for HBM, lets just get these license-less GIANTS creating products that read on our I.P..
Preasure is mounting.
087 will be IPRd. Just imagine a denial!

Enjoy the long wkend Netlisters....." One of these Days "
What if Samsung and Micron made and agreement with SK and gave them $150 million each as long as SK doesn't renegotiate with Netlist, and stops paying Netlist any royalties? that would be bribery, ain't never going happen kick back and enjoy the long wkend Papa and stop worrying.. "0ne of these days" it'll all fall into place..
strengthening that is one issue, but the main issue is how quick its shot down when put under pressure after being challenged. its all bs as long as big tec has a say in things........
As far as I know, getting the USPTO to approve a request to patent something is already a long and agonizing process.
I wonder how long it would take to "strengthen" that already overly long process!
But if that's what it takes to stop this PTAB nonsense, then fine!
There is much to be hopeful for. Netlist has a bunch of litigation wins behind them and should be successful with appeals and the current regulatory guidance is look much better for patent holders. Netlist is still actively developing new technologies that will be needed in abundance by the world.
But our stock price doesn't reflect this and I often wonder why. I know the rest of this post won't go over well with longs, but here's a scenario I've wondered about. Thankfully Netlist currently has a royalty agreement with SK. We all know (as does everyone else) that this relationship is extremely vital to Netlist. If SK wasn't paying us, would Netlist financially survive? For how long? How much financing/dilution would be needed? So I think the importance of SK agreement and it's upcoming agreement renewal (next year) is vital. But Samsung, Micron, and Google all know this too. What if Samsung and Micron made and agreement with SK and gave them $150 million each as long as SK doesn't renegotiate with Netlist, and stops paying Netlist any royalties? I know this sounds ridiculous and far fetched, and very unethical, but we know these companies are unethical with regard to stealing patents. In such a scenario litigation payments would go up a bunch due to adding SK to the list of companies to seek damages from. If such a thing happened might Netlist eventually go bankrupt or have it's price driven price to pennies, thus causing all lawsuits to extinguish/expire or at least making a long term deal or takeover all that much reasonable and sweet for any of the infringers? I agree this seems silly and unlikely. I mean SK could stop paying now already and not even get to the renegotiation. But it's one of the possibilities that would be a reason for us remaining at this price level, and if SK doesn't renew it's agreement, cause us to drop much further.
Sorry, hate to be a downer before a holiday. I just always try to see both sides of the picture. The shorts certainly believe, it's just a question of what do they believe, and if they might be right. They have been for the most part for the past 2 years.

TOMKiLA $NLST Micron will pay more than 1b $ HBM damages! It’s so funny but they are already f*****
With its Q2 FY25 record-breaking $1 billion in HBM revenue, Micron is in a high-stakes transition from being a commodity provider to being an AI infrastructure kingmaker.
So, micron will show probably 4b $ HBM revenues this year or more and this is one of the hugest opportunity we should see
i'd rather see gilstrap and company try it though.
That case was motioned for dismissal by Netlist! SO many new cases filed regarding the same patent.

i wonder if micrap is using any nlst tec in supplying tesla? lpddr4 sounds very familiar!!!
excellent stuff, hong has mentioned grand rapids quite a few times in the past. sounds like he'll be mentioning them again!!
Kinda makes ya wish you would have invested in the other companies, our Day will come.....
As I look at all these AI, robotic and Quantum Computing companies soar in the market (QBTS, IONQ, NVDA, .etc)
I just hope something positive happens for NLST very soon.
I feel that NLST will just be left behind in the market place.
Musk say that TSLA will use One million Nvidia chips,
Can you imagine if NLST got such a deal Tesla Optimus?
"Tesla's Optimus robot uses LPDDR4 memory chips, specifically supplied by Micron, for its Full Self-Driving (FSD) computer, which serves as the "brain" of the robot. The FSD chip, used in Optimus, supports a 128-bit LPDDR4-4266 memory interface, as seen in Tesla's HW3.0 architecture. Additionally, the chip integrates 32 MiB of SRAM per neural processing unit (NPU) for storing temporary network results, reducing data movement to main memory. While the exact capacity of the LPDDR4 chips in Optimus isn't specified, Tesla's HW3.0 in vehicles uses 8 LPDDR4 chips (1GB each, totaling 8GB), and HW4.0 uses 20 GDDR6 chips (2GB each, totaling 40GB). Given Optimus's compute needs, it likely uses a similar or slightly scaled-down configuration compared to HW4.0, but specific details on Optimus's memory capacity are not fully disclosed."

goober103 $NLST Korean article 1 of 2: U.S. patent management firm (NPE) Netlist has raised its sword against Samsung Electronics' high-bandwidth memory (HBM) product line. The industry believes that Netlist filed this lawsuit after a long period of preparation, and analyzes it as a strategy to maximize royalty revenue through intellectual property rights (IP) for core semiconductor technologies.
2 of 2: According to industry sources…the industry is paying attention to the timing of the lawsuit. Samsung Electronics passed the HBM3E test from NVIDIA in February, and Netlist applied for a patent for the technology in 2022 and registered it this month.
the Nvidia part of 2 of 2 is indeed promising
NLST...just another day in roidville...........
TOMKiLA $NLST after 4 years that sheasby's strategy is to accept the judges' sentences and accept the dates and proposals of the giants, they wake up and change strategy. Netlist is asking 3x damages!
Something went wrong here, other than trust the legal team.
Only sk hynix will make the difference with the new deal. If new deal with new terms including 3x cash and introduction of IP licenses, netlist will have very solid foundations to grow and continue to torpedo samsung, google and micron, otherwise netlist will remain weak.
luckily there are 3 new products from the house but it will take time to see concrete and impactful results!
These legal expenses are a huge problem and no one can know when and if there will be deals.
micron is screwed but it's up to sheasby to checkmate! what is he waiting for?
Hope sk Hynix will be a better player, sk made ten billions profits with HBM, $50m annual ip licenses for the netlist tech is the minimum if sk respects netlist
whole thread, my mans on a roll.......... https://stocktwits.com/TOMKiLA/message/615501868
i think i read that some where before. i remember asking you to go and visit, remember?? but regardless, thats dated and i never followed up on any of it. are there any more recent articles on how things are going up there?
NLST So this is Netlists way of saying regardless of what IPR you have going or which puppet PTAB director you pay off, no matter what you call as prior art that isnt prior art we will wade thru administration after administration and come for you for your infingement of our patents. Beast! Now sammy might prolong but it is inevitable. The piper must be paid. And believe me SK is watching.
Stokd $NLST Perhaps the reason for duplicative cases is they initially filed hours too soon—with 087 issued 20th—depending on cutoff time in district. Would explain why they filed cases 557 & 558 later that day and dismissed earlier 552 & 553.
Who knows, speculating and hypothesizing...what I do know is Samsung is gearing up for a fight on what they know is a KEY patent (pic🔥below), and I know Sheasby&team know what they're doing and are best in the game...won all our patent infringement trials.
I think they still filed before Samsung but makes little difference, nothing DE can do to force Gilstrap to transfer or dismiss, why would he...all the parties patent infringement litigation has been in his court.
If anything, Netlist will file for dismissal in DE given the TX action, which has a fair chance of being granted. IMO, litigation on the 087 HBM patent will be in TX w/Gilstrap. Prior transfer motions in numerous TX litigation were filed by Samsung/Micron but none ever granted.

“Netlist claimed that Samsung's infringement was intentional and requested that a provision be claimed up to three times the amount of damages under U.S. patent law should also be applied. This is a more aggressive approach than existing DDR4 or DDR5-based lawsuits”
Seoul=Yonhap Infomax) Reporter Kim Kyung-rim = Netlist, a patent management corporation (NPE) in the United States, raised its knife to target Samsung Electronics' high-bandwidth memory (HBM) product line. The industry believes that Netlist filed this lawsuit after long-term preparation, and is analyzing it as a strategy to maximize royalty returns through intellectual property rights (IP) for semiconductor core technologies.
According to the relevant industry on the 21st, Netlist filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Samsung Electronics and its subsidiaries in the United States in the Texas Eastern District Court on the 19th (local time). (?Refer to the article "'This time HBM3'... U.S. Netlist filed a patent lawsuit against Samsung Electronics again' sent by Yonhap Infomax at 14:16 on May 20)
The technology in question is U.S. Patent No. 12,308,087 (hereinafter referred to as '087 Patent), and the registration process was completed as of the 20th, the day after the collection was received.
The fact that a lawsuit was filed just before the patent registration can be interpreted as meaning that Netlist has been preparing legal disputes with Samsung Electronics for a long time, such as securing pre-registration numbers in advance.
This patent is about 'layered memory' technology, and the key is how to send and receive signals in a structure that stacks multiple DRAM chips and controls them. In particular, the main content is how to effectively distribute signals to each memory chip and to process command signals and data signals separately.
Netlist claims that HBM3E, Samsung Electronics' latest memory product, is using this patented technology as it is. Samsung Electronics is using a method of applying multiple layers of DRAM dies to HBM3E and sending and receiving data through a vertical channel (TSV) that connects the chips. The Netlist's position is that this is essentially the same as the composition described in the claim of the '087 patent.
The industry is paying attention to the time of the lawsuit. Previously, Samsung Electronics passed the HBM3E test from Nvidia in February, and Netlist applied for a patent for the technology in 2022 and completed registration this month. The fact that the lawsuit was filed immediately before the registration process of the applied patent was completed is evidence that Netlist was watching the time when it passed the HBM3E quality test of related technologies and Samsung Electronics.
In particular, based on the experience of winning the jury verdict in the cloud computing-related memory lawsuit last year, this time it is interpreted as a strategy to secure additional profits from HBM3, Samsung Electronics' flagship product, as well as compensation for damages.
Netlist claimed that Samsung's infringement was intentional and requested that a provision be claimed up to three times the amount of damages under U.S. patent law should also be applied. This is a more aggressive approach than existing DDR4 or DDR5-based lawsuits.
An industry official said, "Netlist's new patent seems to have subdivided technical design elements," and "there is definitely a structural similarity with commercialized HBM products."
