The(n) our side's turn came. Robert handled the presentation, arguing basically the ChanBond stay response. During the Q&A, there was an interesting exchange between the judge and the two parties. Since the other side was arguing so stridently that the stay was necessary to argue other non infringements, and Chanbond had so much other evidence of infringement, Why are you pressing these 5 claims that is causing this problem in the first place? Whitman stammered on that one- basically saying we just want to do it. Judge kept pressing him on it- Whitman finally relented and said he would discuss it with his client. The other side agreed, if these claims were not being appealed, they were OK with that. But if ChanBond wanted to continue with the appeal, that is their basis for the stay request. (I question the ChanBond strategy for the appeal as well).
