Hardball--Please take a look at this reprint of a post of mine from yesterday with regard to the documents;

Folks are confused about the impact of the Federal Circuit reversal on the sealed documents. s, you posted:

In footnote 3 of the opinion, the Federal Circuit states that on appeal, IDCC did not challene the allowance of Nokia's motion to intervene for purposes of acess to the sealed records and that therefore, the court did not rule on that part of Nokia's intervention. The Court stated, "Thus our analysis is confined to the court's June 2004 order allowing Nokia to intervene for purposes of seeking reinstatement of the vacated orders."

As a result, it seems that whatever rights were granted to Nokia with regard to the sealed documents by virtue of Judge Lynn's order, which as best I can see were limited to use in the arbitration, were not impacted by the Federal Circuit's decision. I believe that those documents may also have been produced to Nokia for use in the English 2G patent challenge based on a stipulation of the parties that resulted from Nokia's filing the federal actions for discovery in Texas and in North Carolina.
