Question.. What does the statement.."Nokia shall also provide a detailed response why each statement is false"..mean, when requested and provided to a Special Master as opposed to a lay jury?


No, that's not correct. Nokia does not have to "prove" anything. It simply has to provide IDCC and the Court with the statements on which it bases its Lanham Act claim. These are simply assertions, and nothing has to be proved until trial in 14 months (at the earliest). And, note that Nokia will undoubtedly say that there are numerous other assertions it is currently unaware of, and intends to learn about them through discovery. This is an initial disclosure and only requires NOkia to provide its current assertions. Nothing more.
