Qualcomm Inc (QCOM)

k-qc, re: BRCM v QCCOM and "It's appropriate for the judge to approach the issues globally," Qualcomm spokeswoman Christine Trimble said. Broadcom has "a long history of theft" of Qualcomm's trade secrets, Trimble said.

That was discussed at yesterdays BOA presentation. Q IR stated that the judge ordering such (mandatory settlement conference?) is typical.

Of more interest is the Q’s reply (& BRCM’s response- “false & incredible accusations”) in the LAT article you highlighted above.

One would think that the Q when making such a brawny accusation has the facts to support such.
And, BRCM’s strong denial in face of such evidence IMO would not set well with the judge.
