Specialneeds ~ The insurance companies for the manufacturers will force a settlement.

Remember that there is multiple years of significant insurance coverage. This will attach before their balance sheets are hit

the mfgs are on the hook

we have hired the high cost attorneys who told us we had a great case, spent a ton of money to be told right before trial that we had to settle. I’ve seen it over and over

Contractual indemnifiers don’t give their counter parties a blank check to get hit with any jury award as a bill to pay. This is what I do for a living. The manufacturers will force this to settle.

Indemnification from the modem manufacturers would be at risk if they are not given control over this case. No indemnifier is going give an open checkbook to the counter party to go to court and get crushed then have to swallow the bill.

The insurance companies covering the box manufacturers are going to be running the litigation here since they will be indemnifying their customers for IP infringement. the indemnification agreements are not contingent on a jury outcome to be triggered. They never are written that way because the indemnifier will never give up control over their exposure.

The thing that we have to keep in mind is that this case has third party risk transfer. Cisco and Arris have several years of insurance towers that will be hit. They act differently in that the insurance layers have to work in good faith toward each other or they risk bad faith judgements. This will have very serious settlement discussions in the insurance aspect of this.

lean toward a global settlement with the 13 sometime before trial.

the 13 are still required to act in “good faith” relative to their contractual counterparties(Cisco and others). They won’t just drive this thru trial to get a verdict that will be indemnified. They will be required to make a good faith attempt to settle this in coordination with those contractual partners

the issue is the valuation at this point. That discussion is going to be ongoing all the way to settlement just before trial. If there are any talks going on now they are about probing as to what Carter is willing to take. All settlement discussions start out this way
