Defendants now admitting damages, they question only HOW MUCH! notice how they could have said eliminate damages, but they did not. Defendants suggest moving on with only the VALIDATED claims...
In this case, the broadest claims have been invalidated, giving rise to noninfringing
alternatives, and greatly impacting damages. And ChanBond’s choice of issues for appeal – the
construction of “channel” – has far-reaching implications for noninfringement and invalidity.
The Court and the parties are now presented with a substantial risk of multiple trials for
each Defendant. And while ChanBond alone possesses the power to eliminate that risk, by either
dropping the recently invalidated claims and declining to appeal, or in the alternative, agreeing to
stay these cases pending its appeal, it refuses to do so. The only reason to continue these cases
without the guidance of the Federal Circuit is to provide ChanBond an opportunity to have its
cake and eat it too, all at the Court’s and the Defendants’ expense.
