$NLST Nice find! It's why CAFC matters.
-"The PTAB is an appalling failure, invalidating 84% of the patents it fully adjudicates, thereby unleashing massive predatory infringement of small entity patents by huge corporations."
-"but what is their experience in the field? Applying the belief that a law degree coupled with technical or scientific education somehow provides USPTO agency expertise is a bridge too far and disrespectful to inventors."
-"Most APJs have little to no work experience in the field of their degree. Generally, they get their undergrad and go straight to law school. Yet, even without experience in the field, it is their technical or scientific degree alone that qualifies them to adjudicate the validity of our nation’s most important patented inventions."
-"Each PTAB tribunal consists of three APJs. You might assume it is imperative that all three would, at the very least, have a degree in the patented technology. This is not the case in 91.8% of PTAB petitions."

$NLST Regarding the letter posted today that was sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee opposing the nomination of Vidal for USPTO Director... around the same time another letter was sent in opposition — (1st pg in pic & link for rest) "We are inventors..." --- "Together we hold more 7,000 patents covering a wide range of important fields including AI, IoT, 5G, power generation, energy storage, environment, materials, transportation, and biotechnology. However, we are struggling to compete ever since the USPTO has been shaped and controlled by corporate interests under the 2011 America Invents Act (AIA). In particular, the USPTO has shifted its focus from promoting innovation to revoking previously approved patents at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). As big tech and China advances, U.S inventors are increasingly blocked from competing by our very own patent office, which has been heavily politicized and influenced by the trillion-dollar corporations."

NLST at least this gives us some hope that the Court of Appeals will see our pahtents much differently than at "The Kangaroo Court" known as the PTAB. https://sih-st-charts.stocktwits-cdn.com/production/original_567797831.png
$NLST Check out this letter dated 1/5/22 from https://prosperousamerica.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/220105-USPTO-nominee-ltr.pdf They new what Vidal would do as the Director of the USPTO. I urge everyone to file SEC complaints at https://www.sec.gov/oiea/Complaint.html. This corruption must be exposed. We can't let them get away with this!!!

$NLST Just an example! Look at the ongoing claim 16/912 IPR. Samsung did nothing else than argue that claim 16 is based on (a mere) combination of two prior art elements, from the fact that NLST argues that these two references are not eligible (because not published before the priority date). This CAFC judgement definitely reduces/eliminates the margin of the PTAB to invalidate a patent based on obviousness resulting from the combination of two or more prior art elements. Petitioner and PTAB must find additional hard fact argument. Not enough anymore: the mere existence of two or more prior art elements.
NLST I don’t know if any of you have previously cited or even seen this but it’s just beautiful to me. Enjoy!

its all bs. remember they also said they were ready to go in 1-2 weeks and we acknowledged them ok and then yoder screamed from his death bed no no make a scheduling conflict it'll work just like my covid call out, but i forgot to get a doctors note that time. this will happen soon enough, the stupid card only works for so long.........
they just want to delay and delay and will say anything to accomplish that. they know they lost and will use anything within the options of litigations to do it. thats what happens when ya got money to throw around. like the old saying goes, why ya think there do'n that, ''because they can''.
like i said before, i just hope i live long enough, but i do know they will win. its the when we getting paid part i'm concerned about. balls in their court !!!

NLST Remember that Samsung just yesterday objected to May 6th—"Samsung’s only objection is to moving the final pretrial conference to May 6, when both parties are available on April 8 (which Netlist’s counsel requested as the trial date just last week) and April 22. There is good reason that May 6 is unworkable:"—and would now seem, apparently by their own admission in picture below, to be in a bad place/f%&ked!

Another entry in the "PTAB got it wrong" series — 'Victory for Virtek Patent as CAFC Schools PTAB on Proper Motivation to Combine Analysis' — "“This case involves nothing other than an assertion that because two coordinate systems were disclosed in a prior art reference and were therefore ‘known,’ that satisfies the motivation to combine analysis. That is an error as a matter of law. It does not suffice to simply be known. A reason for combining must exist.” – CAFC opinion"
"In a precedential decision authored by Chief Judge Moore, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) on Wednesday partially reversed a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) ruling that certain claims of Virtek Vision International’s patent on a method for aligning a laser projector were unpatentable, finding the Board erred as a matter of law in its analysis."

not all companies are corrupt.
i think its just samscum wanting to push the date out further and further as long as they can get away with it. after all they arent going to win so why not keep delaying. i also think the starting of the trial will commence on that may 6th date because samscum initially proposed that date after saying 1-2 weeks would be good. that 7 page doc explains it rather well..........
pg 5 and 6............
Given that Netlist’s lead counsel will be in Texas preparing back-toback trials starting on April 4 through the April 29 trial, the next available date that
lead counsel can attend the FPTC is May 6, 2024. Netlist will be substantially
prejudiced if its chosen counsel is unable to attend the FPTC due to a pre-existing
conflict.
In contrast, Samsung will suffer no prejudice if the FPTC is reset for May 6,
2024. Netlist reached out to Samsung on March 22, 2024—the day the Court’s order
setting the FPTC date was issued. Sheasby Decl. ¶ 4. Samsung did not substantively respond until March 25, 2024, when it declined to agree. On March 26, 2024 the
parties orally met and conferred. Id. Samsung acknowledged that it has no conflict on
May 6, 2024. Samsung’s only basis for opposing Netlist’s request is that May 6, 2024
is just over one week before the beginning of trial. Id. ¶ 5.
Samsung’s concern is unfounded and directly contradicted by its prior
representation to this Court that the FPTC should take place one week before trial.
The original FPTC date (March 18, 2024) was set with exactly this spacing before the
original trial date (March 26, 2024) at the request of Samsung’s own counsel. Dkt.
391 (MSJ Hearing Tr.) at 12: 2-4 (“The only request that I would make, Your Honor,
is if we could do the final pretrial conference just the week before because of
scheduling issues, that would be appreciated.”). This spacing of the trial and FPTC
dates requested by Samsung to accommodate its own counsel’s schedule, and adopted
by the Court, is equally appropriate now. Samsung claims that the case has somehow
become more complicated, but the case is largely unchanged since the original setting.
Moreover, Samsung has a large legal team (at least seven attorneys attended the last
hearing, including four partners at counsel table) that should have no difficulty
preparing for a 3-4 day trial starting more than a week after May 6.

Netlist: Innovating with Patents
https://medium.com/@manber34/netlist-innovating-with-patents-2ca02ede822e
Netlist, Inc. is a company that has been making waves in the technology industry, thanks to its impressive portfolio of patents. These patents cover a wide range of areas, from server memory to hybrid memory and storage class memory. In this article, we’ll explore Netlist’s patents and their significance.
Netlist holds a portfolio of patents that are critical to the functioning of modern technology. Let’s take a closer look at some of these patents:
U.S. Patent 7,619,912 (‘912 Patent)
This seminal patent has been at the center of Netlist’s litigation battles with tech giants like Google. It covers essential aspects of server memory, including DDR3 and DDR4 server DIMMs. Netlist believes that the teachings of this patent can also be found in future products produced under the DDR5 server DIMM standards.
Recently, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California issued an order granting Netlist’s motion for summary judgment on intervening rights as to claim 16 of the ‘912 patent. This ruling vindicates Netlist’s rights and allows the company to proceed unencumbered by Google’s attempts to escape responsibility for using Netlist’s intellectual property without permission.
Other Patents
Netlist’s patent portfolio extends beyond the ‘912 patent. The company has patents related to rank multiplication, load reduction, and hybrid memory technologies. These patents play a crucial role in advancing memory subsystems and improving performance.
Industry Impact
Netlist’s patents are not just pieces of paper; they have a real impact on the technology landscape. Here’s how:
Litigation Wins
Netlist has successfully won patent infringement cases against major players like Samsung. In one case, the company was awarded a $303 million damages award against Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. This victory underscores the importance of Netlist’s patents and their value in the industry.
Licensing and Implementation
Netlist licenses its intellectual property to companies that implement its technology. These licenses allow other companies to leverage Netlist’s innovations, leading to better products and services for consumers.
Role in AI and Cryptocurrency
Netlist’s patents have a significant impact on emerging technologies, including AI and cryptocurrency:
AI Acceleration
AI applications require high-performance memory solutions. Netlist’s patents related to memory technologies contribute to faster data access and processing, which is essential for AI algorithms.
As AI continues to evolve, Netlist’s innovations will play a vital role in enabling efficient AI training and inference.
Cryptocurrency Mining
Cryptocurrency mining relies heavily on memory-intensive operations. Netlist’s patents related to memory rank multiplication and load reduction can enhance the efficiency of mining rigs.
By optimizing memory access and reducing latency, Netlist’s technologies can improve the performance of cryptocurrency mining hardware.
Conclusion — Industry Impact
Netlist’s commitment to innovation and its robust patent portfolio position the company as a key player in the tech world. As technology continues to evolve, Netlist’s patents will play an essential role in shaping the future of memory and storage solutions, as well as influencing AI and cryptocurrency applications.

$NLST Make it make sense...
-Samsung: We have not and will not infringe on Netlist patents, they are obvious and unpatentable.
-Also Samsung simultaneously: We paid for and have a right to Netlist patents because we did not breach the JDLA/contract.
What am I missing... another example of contradicting positions on Samsung's behalf.
Stokd
Yesterday 11:33 PM
$NLST It’s pretty wild and absurd if you think about it: Samsung claims to have paid Netlist for a license through the JDLA for the use of patents—not contingent on a supply obligation is the assertion in the BOC case—and are currently fighting in the BOC case for their right to Netlist IP.
Yet in infringement and parallel proceedings at the PTAB, Samsung is challenging the validity and trying to render useless the same patents they claimed to have paid for and put value on when signing the JDLA. So if they think Netlist patents are obvious, why do they want/need a license to Netlist patents through the JDLA… just give up the BOC case/trial and relinquish any pursuit of Netlist’s “obvious” and “needless” patents.
While they continue with these arguments/theories, the timing and alignment of cases really exposes the parody like mockery of it. I'll have another drink and ponder further... the layers.
