Zeev's Turnips Patch-No Politics (ZEEV)

[MONYMAN3]

Zeev, from what I understand about RMBS; the story is that the Supreme Court has to decide whether to hear the appeal of the Rambus vs Infineon case by next week (Monday or Tuesday?) otherwise they will not hear the appeal and the prior Appeals Court verdict in that case will stand. The fact that the case was not placed on the Court's docket this week only leaves next week in which the Supreme Court can decide to hear the appeal. That is causing some people to front run that decision. Two reasons are usually cited for a decision not to hear the case: 1.) There are many more pressing cases to be heard and 2.) The Supreme Court usually defers to this particular Court of Appeals since they are much respected in patent law cases. Of course then there is also the FTC case against RMBS to be resolved. FWIW,Rob
